• Lot Description
  Chartreuse Op Painting, ca. 1965. A dynamic circular Op Art wall piece integrating vivid band of chartreuse with precision-cut metal components radiating outward from a central hexagonal core. The interplay of painted surface and dimensional metal forms creates a striking illusion of motion and spatial depth. The composition exemplifies Van Duzer’s interest in optical phenomena, geometry, and material contrast.<Br> Van Duzer worked closely with Julian Stanczak, a key figure in the Op Art movement, and studied alongside Harry Bertoia at the Cranbrook Academy of Art. The inclusion of metal elements in this piece reflects the influence of Bertoia’s sculptural sensibility and material experimentation, merging kinetic visual language with structural presence.
