In 1951, Victor Anton received international attention through his participation in Contemporary British Artists, a British Council exhibition held in France. This was followed by several solo exhibitions such as Gimpel Fils Gallery in 1953 and Grabowski Gallery in 1963 as well as numerous group exhibitions including the I.C.A. in 1958. Anton’s sculptures of the 1950s share a strong aesthetic with his contemporaries Robert Adams and Geoffrey Clark. By the 1960s he had begun to experiment with black and white Perspex as seen in the present lots. These cutting-edge works, produced at the inception of Op Art in this country, remain fresh and powerful today.
