Jesús Rafael Soto, Venezuelan artist working in the fields of Op-art and kinetic art, a sculptor and a painter. Paris 1974.
Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto, a pioneer of Op-art and kinetic art, is photographed in his Paris studio, 1974. He stands beside a large-scale work, a textured field of thin, densely packed rods protruding from a vertical panel. The rods partially obscure him as his raised hand gestures toward the dynamic piece. Dramatic lighting emphasizes the interplay of light, shadow, and form in the black and white composition.
