Bridget Riley is celebrated for her optically vibrant paintings. By manipulating relationships between black and white, colours and shapes, she creates illusions of movement and light. For the Olympic Games 2011 in London she made ‘Rose, Rose’. Riley has arranged colours in horizontal stripes, indicating the direction of athletic tracks or swimming lanes, it is said, but where originates the title of this print?
