We are glad to announce the book release of VASARELY LEGACY, featuring works of Valentin Van der Meulen. The book will be presented and signed by Valentin Van der Meulen on June 22, 2024 at 6pm at the Library of Centre Pompidou in Paris.
This project has allowed Valentin Van der Meulen's work called 'Victor' to enter the collection of Victor Vasarely Foundation.
About the book:
If Victor Vasarely left his mark on the kinetic years of the 1960s and 1970s, it is not only because he created a visual language that embodied the very idea of modernity or paved the way for the optical art movement – whose legacy is still very much alive today, as evidenced by the selection of artists in this book.
It is primarily because he was driven by a vision of the role of art, aware of the responsibility of the artist as well as that of the architect to promote art in society, and he conceived creation in a holistic way.
Vasarely pursued a single objective based on generosity, as he summarized it: "It is nobler to give to everyone than to monopolize everything for oneself and for one's close ones."
