Jesus Rafael Soto Original Paintings

Soto is a hugely significant Venezuelan artist, and was part of an international movement investigating visual phenomena, so-called Op Art, producing paintings and constructions which displayed wild optical properties. This movement was introduced at the 1965 Museum of Modern Art exhibition “The Responsive Eye” and immediately captivated the public. Soto’s works often employed kinetic elements, a signature work typically suspending painted wooden elements from nylon cords in front of a striped ground, leading to the sensation of visual vibration.
