“Limite-Lumificaças,” created in 1958 by the renowned artist Helio Oiticica, is a significant work within the Neo-Concretism movement. The artwork embodies the abstract genre, characterized by its emphasis on geometric forms and spatial relationships that transcend traditional representational art.
The artwork presents a sophisticated arrangement of black striped shapes on a neutral background, meticulously composed to create a sense of dynamic movement and visual rhythm. Each shape consists of parallel lines, varying in direction and alignment, contributing to an intricate dance of form and space. The deliberate placement of these geometric elements invites viewers to explore the interplay between simplicity and complexity, a hallmark of Oiticica’s innovative approach within the Neo-Concretist framework. The restrained color palette highlights the artist’s focus on structure and form, allowing the viewer’s attention to be drawn to the subtleties of spatial relationships and the illusions of depth created by the juxtaposition of the linear patterns.
