Perceptual vs. Conceptual

I love optical illusion. As a child and even till today, I am amazed by how our eyes perceive things.
PERCEPTUAL art plays with your senses and every individual who come in contact with this artwork will have their own perception on the artwork. A very good example of perceptual art is Optical Illusion. Is it really moving?

Here are some really cool floor paintings which are also some examples of Perceptual Art. 
Be amazed!!!

CONCEPTUAL art gives the viewer an idea of the concept that the artist is trying to bring out.

One and Three Chairs by Joseph Kosuth 
One and Three Chairs is an expression of Plato's concept of The Forms. The piece features a physical chair, a photograph of that chair, and the text of a dictionary definition of the word "chair".
