Wojciech Fangor (1922-2015), Attributed to, oil on canvas. This painting by Wojciech Fangor features concentric circles as its core, with colors gradually spreading out from the center. The warm yellow core area contrasts sharply with the purple surrounding it. These rings are not static "lines", but rather create a dynamic illusion of "expansion - contraction" through the gradual change of color lightness and saturation, as if breathing and trembling in space.

Dimensions: Image size: 96.5 cm x 96.5 cm (38 inches x 38 inches) All measured values are approximate.

Note: Wojciech Fangor (1922-2015)'s creations were part of the Op Art (optical art) wave, which emerged in the 1960s and centered on "visual illusions". Through the precise arrangement of colors and geometric forms, it created dynamic and profound illusory experiences on a two-dimensional plane. Fangor's works are often compared with those of artists such as Bridget Riley. He uses "blurred circles" as his signature language to explore the boundaries between color and visual perception. This work, with seemingly "simple" rings, constructs an experimental field about visual perception - it enables viewers to re-examine their cognitive relationship with the world in the tremor of colors, representing a brilliant expansion of the "boundary of perception" by Op Art.
