1. A projection type liquid crystal optical apparatus comprising:

  • (a) a light source system comprising a light source that emits a light, a reflection mirror and a first aperture device;

    (b) a light modulation system configured to modulate a light which is emitted from an opening of said first aperture device, comprising,(b1) a liquid crystal optical element having a front substrate with a transparent front electrode wherein minute concaves and convexes are formed on a surface of the front electrode or on an interface of the front substrate, a back substrate with reflective pixel electrodes, a liquid crystal and solidified matrix composite layer disposed between said front substrate and said back substrate, and(b2) condenser lens having a convex surface and a plane surface facing said liquid crystal optical element; and

    (c) a light projection optical system comprising projection lenses and a second aperture device having an aperture, wherein a modulated light in said light modulation system is passed through the aperture of said second aperture device.
