Current -- In Explore 14 Nov 2015

Current (1964) by Bridget Riley is a work at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. Done in synthetic polymer paint on composition board, the curation card notes: Current's undulating black-and-white lines appear to vibrate and form three-dimensional depressions that quiver on the painting's surface. The juxtaposition of black and white activates the painting with the semblance of movement and the appearance of other colors. In this and other early works, Riley "wanted the space between the picture plane and the spectator to be active." She later explored color contrast. View it large and move it around -- a truly extraordnary experience. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridget_Riley Please use the following to link back to the photo if you choose to use it: goo.gl/6KFMXo .
