// Togonne by Victor Vasarely, a 1987 lithograph, exemplifies the artist's pioneering work in Op Art through its vibrant and geometric composition. This piece features a three-dimensional cube-like form composed of colorful facets, each filled with a grid of repeating ellipses. Each face of the cube is rendered in a distinct color scheme, including red, green, blue, purple, and gold, adding a dynamic interplay of hues that seem to shift and vibrate. The ellipses vary slightly in shade, creating an optical illusion of depth and movement. Set against a deep blue background, Togonne appears to hover in space, inviting viewers to experience the sensation of motion within a static image. Measuring 97 cm by 73 cm, this work is a striking example of Vasarely's ability to manipulate perception through color and form.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
