The artwork titled “Quasar,” created by Victor Vasarely in 1966, is a print that epitomizes Abstract Art. As part of the abstract genre, this 60 by 60 cm piece is housed at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco in San Francisco, CA, US.
The artwork showcases a mesmerizing optical illusion featuring a gradient of blue hues that radiate outward in a distinct geometric pattern. The central focus is a lighter blue, becoming progressively darker as the pattern extends towards the edges, creating a sense of depth and movement. The intricate grid-like arrangement of squares subtly shifts in shape and color density, contributing to the dynamic and immersive experience characteristic of Vasarely’s style and the broader Abstract Art movement.
