Bridget Riley: From Neo-Impressionism to Abstraction
A thought-provoking exhibition at the Musée d'Orsay explores how British artist Bridget Riley incorporated Seurat's compositions into her own artistic investigations.
Born in 1931, Riley is known for her strictly geometric paintings, featuring parallel vertical bands of color, black and white grids, and constructions based on repetition of triangles or curves.
- Her work was classified under Op Art in the 1960s.
- She was also linked to Minimal Art.
Riley's visual experimentation has made her one of the foremost creators of abstraction in the second half of the twentieth century and beyond.
Such convenient categories fail to capture the uniqueness, continuity and coherence of her visual experimentation.
Author's summary: Bridget Riley's artistic journey from Neo-Impressionism to abstraction is explored.
