CARLOS CRUZ-DIEZ (1923–2019)
A master of kinetic and optical art, Cruz-Diez explored the autonomous power of color and perception. His immersive chromatic environments shift with viewer movement, dissolving the boundary between artwork and observer. His work lives on in the Cruz-Diez Foundation, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and Centre Pompidou.
"Color is not a thing in itself but a situation of perception."
