The famous Bridget Louise Riley CH CBE is an English painter known for her op art paintings. She lives and works in London, Cornwall, and the Vaucluse in France.
It was during this period that Riley began to paint the black-and-white works for which she first became known. They present a great variety of geometric forms that produce sensations of movement or color. In the early 1960s, her works were said to induce a variety of sensations in viewers, from seasickness to the feeling of skydiving. From 1961 to 1964, she worked with the contrast of black and white, occasionally introducing tonal scales of grey.
Works in this style comprised her first 1962 solo show at Musgrave’s Gallery One, as well as numerous subsequent shows. For example, in Fall, a single perpendicular curve is repeated to create a field of varying optical frequencies.
