He then began to produce masterpieces of art and sculpture using angular geometry and powerful contrasts of shadow and light to create optical illusions that seem to vibrate, blink and otherwise deceive the eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vasarely\u2019s legacy is found in fashion, music and even cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sharing of Forms awaits you at the Pompidou Centre<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What more appropriate setting could there be for the works of this remarkable figure of Op Art than the Pompidou Centre? The last major Paris exhibition dedicated to Vasarely took place in 1963 at the Mus\u00e9e des Arts D\u00e9coratifs. Today, the Pompidou Centre invites you to discover The Sharing of Forms, a retrospective that examines the creations of the artist through an exceptional display of nearly 300 works (paintings, sculptures, prints, serigraphs, studies, architectural designs and advertising art produced early in his career). Among these are 80 paintings retracing a chronological and thematic journey from Vasarely\u2019s beginnings and the influence on his work of the famous German Bauhaus art school through to the artist\u2019s final productions. A unique exhibition to discover during your stay in Paris!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>******<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.centrepompidou.fr\/cpv\/resource\/cEgR5on\/rKGEn7e\">Vasarely Exhibition<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daunou-opera.com\/fr\/\">Hotel Daunou Op\u00e9ra<\/a>,<\/strong>&nbsp;a 3-star&nbsp;hotel in the heart of Op\u00e9ra District<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An artist who reached the peak of his fame in the 70s, Victor Vasarely, the grandfather of optical art, created a rich body of work consisting of more than 10,000 paintings.
