 Vintage 1989 Derek Ball "Einstein" Hollow-Face 3D Illusion Face (Plastic)
 
An authentic vintage vacuum-formed styrene plastic "Einstein" 3D optical illusion display by renowned New Zealand kinetic artist Derek Ball.
 
This is an artist-authorised production featuring "Derek Ball" stamped directly into the plastic mold.
 
This specific design is the commercial-scale multiple counterpart to his famous large-scale installation permanently housed in the Dunedin Public Art Gallery.
 
When mounted concave-side (hollow side) facing out, it creates the famous "inverted face" illusion where Einstein’s eyes and face appear to turn and follow you as you walk past.
 
It has a copyright mark and address for artist and sculptor Derek Ball, associated with the "Hall of Following Faces" illusion at Puzzling World in Wānaka, New Zealand.
 
It measures 28.6cm in height and 21cm in width. The base measures 5.5cm in depth.
