WAITING FOR VISITORS UNTIL MAY 19
The "Dynamic Eye: Beyond Optical and Kinetic Art" exhibition, which reconsiders optical and kinetic art from a global perspective and brings together modernist predecessors and contemporary artists as well as artists closely related to this movement, is a journey into 20th century art. The exhibition awaits its visitors between January 23 and May 19, 2024.

OPTICAL AND KINETIC ART
The optical and kinetic art movement emerged in the 1950s and 1960s, inspired by mathematics, color theory, and the psychology and physiology of perception. While optical art aims to create the illusion of movement with repetitive forms, geometric shapes and eye-catching colors, Kinetic Art includes movement elements using motors and moving parts. Optical and kinetic art is guided by the idea that art should be an experience rather than an object. Proponents of the movement, including artists such as Bridget Riley, Jesus Rafael Soto and Victor Vasarely, aim to treat the audience not only as a passive spectator but as an active participant engaged in art in time and space.
