RICHARD ANUSZKIEWICZ (geb.1930)

 
Op Art evolved as an alternative trend in painting to the abstract expressionist movement of the 1950s. The genesis of the movement was in the 1960s, when artists such as Victor Vasarely, Bridget Riley, and Richard Anuszkiewicz embraced a more structured and geometric approach to their painting, often using visual tricks to create a sense of movement.  While the artistic and spiritual predecessors to OP Art, such as Josef Albers (!888-1976), utilized a softer and more subdued approach, the Op Artists were using bold, large-scale works with variable dimensions to create their visual statement.  <br><br>A student of Albers, Richard Anuszkiewicz, used enamel and acrylic paint on wood in such a way to create his uncompromising and exact compositions.  A great sense of action can be felt in the present work, "Translumina". The sister piece to "Translumina," "Translumina II" (1986), is in the permanent collection of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo.

Die Op Art entwickelte sich als alternativer Trend in der Malerei zur abstrakten expressionistischen Bewegung der 1950er Jahre. Der Ursprung der Bewegung liegt in den 1960er Jahren, als Künstler wie Victor Vasarely, Bridget Riley und Richard Anuszkiewicz einen stärker strukturierten und geometrischen Ansatz in ihrer Malerei verfolgten und oft visuelle Tricks einsetzten, um ein Gefühl der Bewegung zu erzeugen. Während die künstlerischen und geistigen Vorläufer der OP Art, wie Josef Albers (!888-1976), einen weicheren und gedämpfteren Ansatz verfolgten, verwendeten die Op-Art-Künstler kühne, großformatige Werke mit variablen Abmessungen, um ihre visuelle Aussage zu treffen.

Ein Schüler von Albers, Richard Anuszkiewicz, verwendete Emaille- und Acrylfarbe auf Holz, um seine kompromisslosen und exakten Kompositionen zu schaffen. In dem vorliegenden Werk "Translumina" ist ein großer Sinn für Aktion zu spüren. Das Schwesterwerk zu "Translumina", "Translumina II" (1986), befindet sich in der ständigen Sammlung der Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo.
