Electric Op at Buffalo AKG Art Museum

I’m thrilled to be included in the upcoming show Electric Op at Buffalo AKG Art Museum September 27, 2024 through January 27, 2025. My Artblocks collection Vortex (2021) will be on view.

Drawing on the Buffalo AKG’s leading collection of Op art, Electric Op brings together more than 100 artworks by nearly ninety artists to trace the six-decade history of the relationship between Op art and electronic art and culture. Through these artworks, Op art became more than just the final chapter of modernist geometric abstraction—it was also the first artistic movement of the global Information Age.
