Polychrome Sculpture. Attributed to Omar Rayo (1928–2010). Presenting a polychrome geometric construction composed of interlaced, folded, black-and-white striped forms arranged in a rhythmic optical pattern, the work reflects Rayo’s established Op-Art vocabulary, defined by illusionistic depth, precise linear modulation, and controlled chromatic accents. Signed on base. Accompanied by two certificates of authenticity—one from Duque Arango Galería and one from the Museo Darío Arang. 82 x 71 x 5 cm (32" x 27.9" x 2"). The emphasis on sculptural planar tension, chromatic intervention, and optical movement aligns with Rayo’s late-career multiples and dimensional graphic works. Comparable examples of his folded-stripe constructions and optical reliefs appear in the Museo Rayo in Roldanillo, Colombia, the Museo de Arte Moderno in Bogotá, and the Museo La Tertulia in Cali, each holding works that demonstrate similar formal precision and optical-structural interplay.
