Timothy Taylor Carlos Place, 15 Carlos Place, Mayfair , W1K 2EX
How Much:
Free!
Bridget Riley's second exhibition at Timothy Taylor Gallery features a selection of new paintings, wall-based works and gouaches.
Bridget Riley is the leading exponent of Op Art, a movement that exploits the fallibility of human vision to create illusions of colour, form and movement.
Her works from the 1950s and '60s, which are often painstakingly produced, manipulated graphic patterns to trick the mind and the eye. Sensations of dizziness, lurching movement, and even mild nausea may all be felt after prolonged viewing.
Riley is endlessly fascinating, especially with the sense of something calmer and more gentle that has entered her work of late.
Until 19.12.09.
