Acrylic on panel. Unique work. Signed and dated to verso ‘Richard Anuszkiewicz 1975’. Soft Gray (1975) by Richard Anuszkiewicz is a unique acrylic on panel measuring 49.8 × 65.7 cm. A leading figure of the Op Art movement, Anuszkiewicz uses precise geometry and subtle shifts in color to create a vibrating sense of depth and optical rhythm. Here, a field of soft gray is punctuated by vertical linear elements that transition from turquoise to deep violet, producing a pulsating visual effect that seems to expand and contract as the eye moves across the surface. The work exemplifies Anuszkiewicz’s exploration of color interaction and perception, turning rigorous abstraction into a meditative yet dynamic experience.

What is conceptual art?
Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics. Many conceptual artworks can be created by anyone simply by following written instructions. The concept or idea is the most essential aspect of the artwork.
