Description: [Item description] This poster was created to accompany Bridget Riley's Wall Works 1983-2023 exhibition at the Max Hetzler Gallery in Berlin. In the 19th century, German physicist and physiologist Hermann von Helmholtz joked that the human eye was a "terribly poorly constructed organ" and that "if you bought it from an optician, you had good reason to return it immediately." The human eye's afterimages, false colors, and flashes of light were its flaws, but Riley presents these as strengths. The unique properties of the eye not only form the basis for the pleasure of seeing, but rather provide the richness that art brings out. In the work "Rajasthan" (Rajasthan, a state in northwest India) shown in this poster, the eye is deliberately difficult to find where the painting ends and the wall begins (painted directly on the wall), but as soon as you learn the title, the colors and shapes seem to depict a connection to Rajasthan, as if they represent fire, Hindu language, etc. Bridget Riley (1989-)Bridget Riley is said to be a pioneer of the field of "Op Art," a type of painting that appeals to optical illusions, and her work is included in the public collections of more than 113 museums and foundations around the world, including the Pompidou Center in Paris, the Dallas Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Stuttgart State Museum of Art, and the Tate in London.
