“Volume Virtuel 1, Serie 3, Nº8” is a sculpture by the renowned artist Julio Le Parc, associated with the Op Art movement. The artwork, characterized by its vibrant interplay of colors and potential for visual dynamism, exemplifies the artist’s mastery in creating optical effects through three-dimensional shapes and vibrant hues.
The artwork exhibits a series of undulating vertical forms arranged in an evenly spaced sequence. Each form is rendered in a vivid, gradient spectrum of colors ranging from deep purples and blues on the outer edges, transitioning through greens and yellows, to intense reds and oranges in the center. This arrangement creates a sense of movement and depth, drawing the viewer’s eye through a rhythmic progression of hues. The wavy contours and the meticulous organization of these forms create an illusion of volume and virtual dynamism, characteristic of Le Parc’s exploration in the Op Art genre.
