This kinetic art multiple, titled Cercles Par Deplacement, is a contemporary reproduction of an edition by the Argentine-French artist Julio Le Parc, a central figure in the Op Art and Kinetic Art movements. Produced by MAK Editions (Editions Mike-Art-Kunst), the work features a black acrylic or Plexiglas housing that creates a deep, recessed chamber. The interior is lined with vibrant, concentric polychrome circles in shades of blue, yellow, green, and purple. Through the use of reflective interior surfaces, the geometric patterns are distorted and multiplied, creating a sense of infinite depth and movement that shifts based on the viewer's perspective.

Le Parc is renowned for his exploration of light and movement, often utilizing industrial materials to engage the spectator in a dynamic visual experience. This piece exemplifies his commitment to "democratizing" art through multiples that maintain the experimental spirit of his larger installations.
