'''Op art''' is art which uses color and abstract patterns to create an illusion of pulsing movement. The name was coined in 1964 by ''Time'' magazine,<ref>[http://arthistory.about.com/cs/arthistory10one/a/op_art.htm Op Art], about.com</ref> a takeoff on the term "pop art" which had been coined a few years earlier. It was perhaps more of a fad than a major movement, and was very popular in the sixties when op art seemed to evoke visual sensations similar to those induced by psychedelic drugs.
