How fortunate I’ve been to spend my life creating memories of those distant times for others to enjoy. ”

Chuck Close Chuck Close "The Event" On December 7, 1988, Close felt a strange pain in his chest. That day he was at a ceremony honoring local artists in New York City and was waiting to be called to the podium to present an award. Close delivered his speech and then made his way across the street to Beth Israel Medical Center where he suffered a seizure which left him paralyzed from the neck down. The cause was diagnosed as a spinal artery collapse. Close called that day "The Event. " For months Close was in rehab strengthening his muscles; he soon had slight movement in his arms and could walk, yet only for a few steps. He has relied on a wheelchair since.

However, Close continued to paint on with a brush strapped onto his wrist with However, Close continued to paint on with a brush strapped onto his wrist with tape, creating large portraits in low-resolution grid squares created by an assistant. Viewed from afar, these squares appear as a single, unified image which attempt photo-reality, albeit in pixilated form. Although the paralysis restricted his ability to paint as meticulously as before, Close had, in a sense, placed artificial restrictions upon his hyper-realist approach well before the injury. He had adopted materials and techniques that did not lend themselves well to achieving a photorealistic effect. Close proved able to create his desired effects even with the most difficult of materials to control.

Bridget Riley, born 1931 Shadowplay, 1990 The British painter Bridget Riley rose to prominence Bridget Riley, born 1931 Shadowplay, 1990 The British painter Bridget Riley rose to prominence in the 1960 s as one of the leading practitioners of what became known as Op Art, an international abstract movement concerned with visual effects and illusions. Complimentary colors and pattern/repetition are key elements of her work.

Of her work, Riley said, Of her work, Riley said, "In my earlier paintings, I wanted the space between the picture plane and the spectator to be active. It was in that space, paradoxically, the painting took place. “ “Then, little by little, and, to some extent deliberately, I made it go the other way, opening up an interior space. . . It is important that the painting can be inhabited, so that the mind's eye, or the eye's mind, can move about it credibly. ”

He began painting the geometrical abstractions that led to birth of Op Art. Initially, he drew inspiration from the crackled tiles he looked at every day while waiting for the underground train in Paris. When he began using brighter, more vibrant colors, his works further enhanced the suggestion of movement through optical illusion.
