Vega Mat, 1969, signed, dated and titled on the reverse, acrylic on canvas, 100 x 100 cm, framed

The authenticity of this work has been confirmed by Pierre Vasarely, President of the Vasarely Foundation, universal legatee and moral right holder of Victor Vasarely.

Provenance:
Galerie Denise René, Paris (label on the reverse)
European Private Collection

In 1968 Vasarely started creating works known as Vega in which the optical effect of the swelling of the painting’s surface was mainly due to deformation of the elements of the composition. VEGA MAT executed in 1969 creates this optical illusion by using shades of white that through a soft gray scale turn into black supported by a precious golden spiderweb.
