Screenprint, wood and painted metal - Signed on the label on the reverse - Published by B.C. de Venezuela. // Rafael Jesus Soto’s Dos Cuadraditos (1972) is a sculptural object that exemplifies the artist’s mastery in kinetic and optical art. The piece features a screen-printed background with vertical black and white stripes, creating a dynamic visual effect that shifts as the viewer changes perspective. Two square elements, one black and one blue, protrude from the surface, playing with spatial perception and movement. Made from wood and painted metal, this work invites the viewer to engage with the illusion of depth and motion, core elements of Soto's practice. Published by B.C. de Venezuela and signed on the reverse, Dos Cuadraditos is a striking representation of Soto's exploration of perception and visual interaction.

What is kinetic art?
Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.
