Victor Vasarely (1908-1997)
Inventor of Op Art, (without the help of the computer!) born in Hungary and died in France, Vasarely was a leading artist of order the 20th century. His name is associated to a real visual revolution whose impact is reflected in the art, design and landscapes of our cities. In his works, the shapes, colours and contrasts assembled create a visual experience that is renewed every time.
Vasarely's desire to bring art within everyone's reach is accompanied by an intimate wish: to nurture the soul of the general public with beauty and poetry.
His perfectionism demanded absolute quality. As, according to Vasarely, "originals are no more important than their reproductions."

Heliogravure, or photogravure, is one of the most sophisticated photo-mechanical processes, and an intaglio printmaking process (other methods are offset, rotogravure and photo etching). Images are printed by making printing plates, then transferring the image onto paper.
