Box with motor and moving colored lights // Boite à lumières by Horacio García Rossi is a mixed media light sculpture created in 2012. This piece consists of a box containing a motorized system that generates moving colored lights, with an edition limited to 20. A vibrant circular display of purple lights, seen through a dark frame, creates a mesmerizing, almost hypnotic effect as it shifts in motion. García Rossi, a pioneer in kinetic and light art, explores the dynamic interaction between light and perception, inviting viewers into a sensory experience where light itself becomes the subject. The work’s minimalist structure emphasizes the ethereal quality of the shifting colors, embodying García Rossi’s fascination with optical illusion and movement.

What is Op Art?
Op Art is a visual art style that uses optical illusions to create the impression of movement, vibrating patterns, flashing, or hidden images. The works are typically abstract, with many well-known pieces in black and white. The roots of Op Art can be traced back to earlier movements like Futurism, Constructivism, Dada, and Neo-Impressionism, particularly in their use of color effects and graphic design.
