On the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of MoMA’s groundbreaking exhibition, The Responsive Eye (1965), El Museo del Barrio (in partnership with the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires) presents The Illusive Eye, an international survey on Kinetic and Op art. The exhibition offers a broad intellectual context for Op art and geometric abstraction, one that goes against the grain of formalist art history. The selection provides a special focus on artwork from the Americas and features major artists from seventeen countries in Latin America and beyond. Learn more at elmuseo.org.
