Often referred to as the father of op-art, Vasarely was born in Pécs, lived in Budapest, but left for Paris where he died in 1997. This museum was opened in 1987 after the artist donated 400 pieces of his work to the country. Downstairs you will find a number of his earlier graphic artist pieces and upstairs are the larger op-art works of colorful, geometric art. If this leaves you wanting more, there is also a museum with his work in Pécs.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
