Description: Presents Victor Vasarely, Hungarian-born artist and founder of "op-art," and his belief that the truths of our time are represented by relativity, the speed of light, and the weight of an atom. Reveals that Vasarely has gone from representational abstraction through kinetic experiment, to what he terms an abstract geometrical alphabet. Indicates that since Vasarely thinks all persons should be able to enjoy and own art, many of his pictures are prototypes designed for unlimited reproduction.
