Julio Le Parc

Le Parc is recognized worldwide for contributing with his works to kinetic and optical art. He is one of the greatest geometric and kinetic artists making great innovations in the fields of light, movement and perception. His works function as a support for research on painting and its scope, sculpture and participatory experiences.
His work, composed mainly of reliefs that integrate light and movement, uses phosphorescent liquids, nylon threads and mechanically moved metal bands. Since 1969, after returning to painting on canvas, he has worked in a range of fourteen strictly defined colors.
