One of the most important Brazilian artists of the contemporary era, Geraldo de Barros is a key representative of the country’s artistic avant-garde in the 1940s, 50s and 60s. The multidisciplinary reach of his practice helped position Brazilian art among the most dynamic in the world, breaking artistic paradigms through novel forms, materials and supports, as well as through his ongoing questioning of the reproducibility of the artwork.
 
Indeterminante ótica de duas formas iguais (1953/1996) is a geometric composition in laminated plastic on wood, with equivalent forms organized within a square module of uniform surface. Grounded in the principles of concrete art, the work explores formal variations through repetition and rigorous symmetry among abstract elements, generating an optical play that shifts perception between figure and ground, identity and variation.


Um dos artistas brasileiros mais importantes da contemporaneidade, Geraldo de Barros carrega o legado de quem ajudou a pavimentar os caminhos da vanguarda artística no Brasil nas décadas de 1940, 1950 e 1960. A natureza multidisciplinar de suas pesquisas foi decisiva para posicionar a arte brasileira em diálogo com as experiências mais avançadas de seu tempo, rompendo paradigmas da linguagem artística, seja na experimentação com formas, materiais e suportes, seja no questionamento contínuo da noção de reprodutibilidade da obra de arte.

 

A obra "Indeterminante ótica de duas formas iguais" (1953/1996) apresenta uma composição geométrica de formas equivalentes, organizada em um módulo quadrado de superfície uniforme, em plástico laminado sobre madeira. Ancorada nos princípios da Arte Concreta, a obra explora variações formais baseadas na repetição e na simetria rigorosa de elementos abstratos, criando um jogo óptico que convida o espectador a deslocar sua percepção entre figura e fundo, identidade e variação visual.
