Hermes plume silk twill giant scarf, 55" x 55" (100% silk) Color : mauve/blue/black
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1932, Antonio Asis is our guest artist for the spring/summer season 2016. He trained at the National School of Fine Arts in his native city, where he won numerous prizes before moving to Paris in 1956, like many other Latin American artists, including Jesús-Rafael Soto or Julio Le Parc. Invariably abstract, his work quickly embraced Op Art, exploring the purely optical illusion of movement, in contrast to Kinetic art, which sought to incorporate real, physical motion. Antonio Asis’s Op Art compositions respond to the viewers shifting gaze: their geometric forms and dancing colours seem quite literally to come to life. The silk carré becomes a vibrant, living surface.
