Victor Vasarely (April 9, 1906 – March 15, 1997) was a Hungarian-French artist, widely recognized as the father of Op Art (Optical Art). He is known for his geometric abstract works that create optical illusions of movement, depth, and vibration through precise lines, colors, and shapes. Vasarely's career spanned several decades, influencing not only visual arts but also design, architecture, and popular culture. He believed art should serve society and be integrated into everyday life. His iconic works include Zebra (1937) and the Vega series. Vasarely's fusion of art and science left a lasting impact on modern art and visual perception.
