CURRICULUM
Op-Art
Portfolio Covers
The
Op-Art Portfolio Cover introduces the basics of graphic design in the
context of 60's era Op-Art. Artists such as Victor Vaserely are featured,
in addition to M.C. Escher and others. Students explore the advent
of painting and art that was aimed at exploiting new understanding
of the science of optics.
The project objective is to create a black-and-white
design using the student's name in a grid intended
to generate an optical
illusion or "trick of the eye."
