Op Art wasn't specifically 'invented' anywhere although the origins are European. Two of the pioneers in Op Art were Victor Vasarely (considered to be the father of Op Art) who was Hungarian, although he lived for most of his working life in Paris. The other main exponent was Bridget Riley who worked from her studio in London. You can find out more about both of these people in wikipedia or op-art.co.uk
