The book
In 2022, Éditions Favre published a book about the interface between Op Art and neuroscience, ‘L’Op Art rencontre les neurosciences’; it describes this research, with supporting accounts from experts. The success of this bestselling art book seems to prove that the perception of illusions is a subject of interest to both scientists and artists.

In this Op Art painting (oil on linen canvas), although static, an optical illusion is revealed in a truly unique way. To perceive it, simply photograph the original work with a smartphone or tablet: the illusion will then appear directly on your screen, changing your perception and you will discover the illusion.
This innovative approach offers a new way to explore optical illusions by exploiting digital technology. A visual experience like no other, impossible to reproduce on the Internet!
