More on geometry an fashion: this post contains works of the lithuanian artist Kazys Varnelis, one of my favorite painters. To me his work seems deeply inspired and well linked to textiles. Here some interesting dialogs I’ve composed between his paintings and contemporary fashion which are connected in concept and aesthetics.

yesyesyes! Varnelis one of my favorite too. his works from op art period have high commercialization possibilities :) from fashion to legal large format print copies, wallpapers etc.
btw, those who haven’t been in his museum – its must see place in Vilnius http://www.muziejai.lt/vilnius/varnelis_mus.en.htm
