Carlos Cruz-Diez

Physichromie No. 2540

2008

Physichromie No. 2540 is a vibrant and meticulously constructed work by Venezuelan kinetic art pioneer Carlos Cruz-Diez, combining silkscreen printing with three-dimensional plastic elements mounted on wood. The piece exemplifies Cruz-Diez's lifelong investigation into the autonomous life of color, creating shifting chromatic experiences that change as the viewer moves in relation to the surface. Housed in the artist's own frame, the work functions as both painting and sculptural object, blurring the boundaries between the two disciplines.
