Convex Or Concave? That is The Question!
June 09, 2006 by Vurdlak
While ago, one of our anonymous visitors pointed out this illusion made by Roy Lichtenstein, Called "Sculpture & Drawings". The sculpture House is 113 x 127 x 156 inches and is made of painted fiberglass. It hangs on the wall, and when viewing the sculpture in person, an optical illusion occurs - it appears to be convex but it is concave. There are more pictures in this post to serve as evidence.

AHHFASDHFAHFHASDF Makes me frustrated
I think this is in Washington DC. I saw it in some abstract art garden.
Both.. it seems to me that it's painted on both sides..
I saw the bottom two for real. It's really weird. It's like the house moves as you move.
gah...in the second pic, I try to see it as concave, and it keeps flickering back and forth...hurting my eyes!
This is amazing....this past august I took a trip to Washington DC. I saw this there, and thought I recognized it....now i realize, i had not only seen it before, I had commented on it!
(this is the same me as the post above)
triky
OMG!
I've been there so many times in D.C. before!
That illusion is my fave one in that garden thingy!
