8. Art Again
Your chance to own a limited edition signed print of Oliver Bevan's original painting.
The Fontana Modern Masters were great if you loved deep thinking and even better if you loved great art, with the first ten covers forming a cut-up of Oliver Bevan's Cascade. Now, over four decades later, the artist has released Cascade as alimited edition signed print, with a retrospective exhibition of his optical, geometric and kinetic art to follow in June-July 2012.
Oliver Bevan, Cascade. Giclée print, 40 x 56 cm. Edition of 75.
Bevan has described the dynamics of the painting as a kind of 'faint vibration'. Its hard-edged geometry and saturated colours produce a subtle
flickering of figure and ground which the artist Josef Albers, in his classic Interaction of Color, called 'the discrepancy between physical fact and
psychic effect'. Cascade is Op Art at full pitch and its cover story makes it a great conversation piece, so if you're a fanof the books or optical art you can now own a piece of publishing history.
Cascade is signed and numbered by Oliver Bevan and is available framed, glazed and ready-to-hang from fine art publisher wire-frame »
