Untitled from Permutations (Squares)

about Untitled from Permutations (Squares)

Discover Victor Vasarely’s groundbreaking 1968 screenprint "Untitled from Permutations (Squares)," a masterful example of Optical Art that explores the infinite possibilities of geometric transformation through systematic square variations and precise mathematical relationships.

This signed and numbered work transforms the fundamental square into a mesmerizing study of permutation and optical illusion, rendered with Vasarely’s characteristic mastery of Op Art techniques that create dynamic visual effects and spatial ambiguity. The piece demonstrates the artist’s revolutionary approach to systematic art-making while showcasing his deep understanding of mathematical principles and their application to visual perception during the height of the Op Art movement. This work represents a significant example of 1960s Optical Art and Vasarely’s exploration of systematic geometric variations that would influence generations of contemporary artists.
