The artwork, titled “Arc Bands,” was created in 1990 by the artist Sol LeWitt. It belongs to the Op Art movement and is categorized within the abstract genre.
“Arc Bands” prominently features a series of concentric semi-circular arcs, each filled with vibrant, solid colors ranging from yellow at the base to shades of blue, red, green, purple, and brown as it ascends. These arcs are nested within one another, creating a visually stimulating pattern that draws the viewer’s eye upward through a spectrum of colors. The piece is bordered by a thick black outline, which contrasts sharply with the bright hues within. The simplicity and precision of the geometric forms, along with the boldness of the color palette, epitomizes the distinctive characteristics of Sol LeWitt’s work in the Op Art movement.
