Julio Le Parc’s 'La Longue Marche' is a landmark series of six original prints, published by the visionary gallerist Denise René, whose support was central to the international dissemination of kinetic and Op Art. In this suite, Le Parc translates his investigations into movement, perception, and serial variation into the language of printmaking, creating dynamic optical effects through systematic modulation of form and tone. Each print functions as a self-contained exploration of visual instability, yet together the six works form a cohesive progression that mirrors the artist’s interest in rhythm and transformation. Complete sets of 'La Longue Marche' are notably scarce, as individual prints were often separated and dispersed, making the preservation of the entire suite especially significant for collectors and institutions. As such, the series not only embodies Le Parc’s innovative contribution to postwar abstraction but also represents a rare opportunity to encounter his work in its intended serial and experiential form.
