Complex Vision is a large outdoor op-art installation at the Callahan Eye Foundation Hospital on University Boulevard. The work, 30 feet x 30 feet, was created by artist Yaacov Agam in 1969 for the site. The piece is painted on aluminum strips that are mounted in an accordion-fold arrangement so that the composition and colors change as the viewer passes by.
Donors for the work included Mr. & Mrs. Marvin Engel (in memory of their parents), Carl Jernigan and William Hulsey. Hulsey and Jernigan, along with fellow trustee Alston Callahan selected the artist and commissioned the work.
