Andrew Macleod · Art Curator · Selected
Works 1960s to Present · Athens
Artists have been intrigued by the nature of perception and optical effects for centuries. Op Art employs abstract patterns with stark contrast to produce effects that confuse and excite the eye. This collection showcases salient examples — 1960s to present.
My vision when it comes to collecting Op Art is to build a collection that captures the movement, illusion and visual energy that make the genre so compelling. I am drawn to works that challenge perception and create a dialogue between art, the eye, and the mind. Rather than simply collecting individual pieces, I want to create a thoughtful and evolving collection to reflect the history and diversity of Op Art.
My mission is to collect and sell exceptional Op Art pieces that challenge perception, inspire curiosity, and bring energy and movement in contemporary spaces. I aim to connect collectors with meaningful works while preserving and promoting the unique legacy of the art form.
The collection is fairly eclectic and interesting, encompassing global artists mainly from Europe and the U.S. It brings together works that explore movement, illusion, geometry and visual energy across the history of Op Art — from Vasarely, Quinte, Rice, Wilding and Spalatin to many more.
