Luis Tomasello was a key figure in the kinetic and optical art movements, especially during his time in Paris, where he was associated with the influential Denise René Gallery. This gallery was pivotal in promoting avant-garde artists and establishing kinetic art as a major movement in the mid-20th century. Tomasello's innovative work eflects his mastery of manipulating light, shadow, and perception. His contributions alongside artists like Victor Vasarely and Jesús Rafael Soto helped push the boundaries of static art by creating the illusion of movement.

'Grille Chromoplastique' is a striking example of Tomasello's approach to kinetic and optical art. Composed of geometric forms arranged on a white grid, the artwork interacts with light and shadow to create dynamic visual effects. The carefully angled elements project subtle colour reflections, creating a sense of movement and depth as the viewer’s perspective shifts. Tomasello’s exploration of space and light in this piece invites a constantly evolving experience, transforming a static composition into a lively, immersive encounter with light and form.
