Frieze Issue 157 - Periphal Visions.




The kinetic artist Julio le parc for more than 50 years has been exploring spectirship, movement and partcipation.

I found the use of colour in these images interesting, and you can imagine from the image how the artist uses movement to create an warped effect. The simplicity of the images adds to the effectiveness as they are just stripy circles with different colour palettes.

One image a harmonious colour scheme in the main circle with green going into yellow then the stripes are red onto which is opposite green to green on the colour wheel.

Julio Le Parc has used colour and his knowledge on colour theory to his advantage, as he has been able to create the movement in the circle with the right colours making interesting colours from the patterns.
