Detail

<i>Mac Entyre suggests movement and a concomitant sense of time through the intersection of a fragmentary series of concentric circles with two rectangular grids, each composed of precise horizontal lines. The divergence and convergence of the two patterns, drawn in magenta and blue against a vibrant red background, creates an optical dissonance and inconsistent transparency that produces a dizzying, moiré pattern. -Text by Mark Andrew White</i>

Diego Masi 
(b. 1965)

Diego Masi is an Uruguayan artist. He spent his childhood between Montevideo, Lima, Buenos Aires, and New York. He graduated from the National School of Fine Arts of Montevideo, where he trained at the Luis Ernesto Aroztegui Workshop between 1987 and 1993. 

In his work, Masi is equally interested in painting and sound art as he is in electromechanical and urban installations. However, he is better known for his monochromatic paintings, depicting them like whirlpools rhythmically contrasted by black and white. By integrating repetitive lines and shapes, and playing with shadow and light, Diego Masi's biomorphic creations oscillate between painting and sculpture, highlighting his exploration of movement and three-dimensionality.

Carlos Cruz-Diez
(1923 - 2019)
 

Carlos Cruz-Diez was a Venezuelan artist who played a central role in the development of Kinetic and Op art. His work focused on the perceptual and spacial experience of color, presenting it as an autonomous event rather than a descriptive tool.

Physichromie No. 965, and other works from that period, use the reflective nature of metal strips to produce colors in addition to those physically silkscreened onto the support of the work, resulting in what Cruz-Diez has called “a continuous evolutionary event involving chromatic atmospheres.” He used red, yellow, blue, white, and black on the support, but as the viewer alters position in relation to the work, the colors visible on the surface change and create an awareness of the concomitant passage of light and time. -Text by Mark Andrew White

Art critics of the 1960s dubbed Riley's optical painting style Op Art. By the time her work was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1965, it already had been embraced by the fashion and design industry. Today her paintings are inspiring a new generation of abstractionists because of what they say about the magic of seeing.

Alberto Biasi
(B. 1937)
 

Alberto Biasi was a co-founder of Gruppo N, a key Italian collective whose members explored visual perception and optical effects.
His pieces, including works titled “Dinamica,” are structured to create optical movement and perceptual instability: as the viewer changes position, the work seems to shift, pulse, or vibrate.
