À propos de la sculpture
Originally from Venezuela but based in Paris for most of his life, Jesús Rafael Soto is recognized as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, particularly for his pioneering role in Kinetic Art—an artistic movement centered on works that incorporate real movement or create the illusion of motion. This work belongs to his “Écriture” (Writings) series, which he began in the mid-1960s. Inspired by musical scores, the series explores the interplay between visual rhythm and spatial illusion, contrasting a rigid sequence of black and white stripes with fluid, curved forms that resemble drawings suspended in space. These elements appear to float and transform as the viewer shifts position in front of the work, creating a dynamic effect over the viewer’s perception, one that blurs the boundaries of reality through optical illusion.
