Op-art Gallery: works by school pupils

These are drawings by 15-year-old pupils of 8th class of Laco Novomesky school in Kosice (June 2004). Teacher: Stanislava Corbova, M.A.

My children go to that school, so I know many of those good and enthusiastic teachers very well. In June 2004 I saw an exibition of these works of the 8th class pupils in the entrance hall, and I was extremely fascinated with children's creativity.

With the kind permission of Mrs Stanislava Corbova, the teacher of art, and the school Headmaster, I digitized the pupils' drawings to make them available to all people who may enjoy them. The on-line pictures are reduced in size; if you are interested in obtaining the picture in original size, I can forward your request (or even your comments) to the young authors, their parents, and their teacher.

You can read a brief article about op-art, and enjoy comparing these drawings with some works by Victor Vasarely and Bridget Riley, the famous op-artists.
