What is OPT Art?
Try to count the number of black dots below.
• Developed in the 1950s-60s
• Op Art uses equal values of contrasting colors to cause the viewers eye to move involuntarily.
• This was a total Abstractform of art.
Op Art
• Hard-edge painting- style of art in which the artist uses crisp edges. No brushstrokes.
• Abstract Art- a style of art that shows objects in simplified arrangements of shape, line, texture, and color. Often geometric.
Op Art Elements & Principles1. Balance: is it symmetrical or asymmetrical?
2. Pattern: “Multiplicity of Simplicity”…using the same simple pattern over and over and over…
3. Color: Not necessary, high contrast of black and white gives powerful result.
4. Assimilation: our tendency to minimize things and make them appear uniform.
5. Contrast: exaggerating differences.
6. Negative & Positive: negative surrounds positive, it is behind the figure. Positive is the figure.
7. Line- always gives us positive space. It is an abstract concept.
8. Multiple grouping- when we are confronted by several stimuli and how we organize it.
9. Good figure- the perceptual ability to predict the total entity from minimum information.
10. Proximity- objects that are near one another have a tendency to group.
11. Similarity- all similar things have a tendency to group.
