Bridget Louise Riley

Bridget Louise Riley is an Op Art artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Bridget Riley’s black-and-white paintings from the early 1960s twist stripes and curves into optical illusions. Try her Study for the painting 'Burn' (1964), a watercolour grid that makes your eyes jump between light and dark bands. Riley’s hand-drawn experiments live in that moment when science met art on London’s gallery walls during the Swinging Sixties. Next, tilt your screen and let 'Fall' (1963) pull you straight into its spinning black discs.
