...Victor Vasarely is internationally
recognized as one of the most important artists of the 20th centruy.
He is the acknowledged leader of the Op
Art movement, and his innovations in color and optical illusion have

Vasarely was born in Pecs,
Hungary in 1906. After
receiving his baccalaureate degree in 1925, he began studying art at
