An op art Agamograph titled “Vision Integration” by the Father of Kinetic Art, Yaacov Agam. Signed on the bottom right with an annotation of 22/25 H.C. on the bottom left. The artwork is comprised of a lithographic image viewed through a lenticular lens; this causes the artwork to change when viewed, often described as a transformative experience. An extraordinary example of Agam's signature style. From a private collection. Dimensions: 18 7/8”h x 20 7/8”w x 1”d (framed). In very good vintage condition.
Op art pioneer Yaacov Agam's abstract artworks--which range from painting, sculpture, drawing, and ceramics, to stained glass and etching--typically incorporate light, sound, or viewer participation. The son of an orthodox rabbi, Agam first trained as an artist in Jerusalem, going on to combine formalist art with kabbalistic mysticism, and he is credited with introducing geometric abstraction to Israeli art. Agam's best known series of works, comprised of painted strips that appear to shift and oscillate as viewers alter their points of view, would become known as Agamographs. He has also produced public commissions, including the world's largest menorah, installed in New York City, and Star of Peace for Ben-Gurion university that fused the five-pointed star of Islam with the six-pointed Star of David. Agam met and was influenced by the Bauhaus artist and teacher Johannes Itten in Zurich, and also cites Wassily Kandinsky's abstraction as an influence on his practice.
