HUGE Agam FESTIVAL Signed Op Art Serigraph Print LE
This is a signed, numbered limited edition print by well-known contemporary artist Yaacov Agam. It is representative of his style, which fits into the category of "Op Art." The art movement was developed in the mid-1960s, when a number of artists became concerned with using painting as a vehicle for conveying optical illusions. His works are referred to as "Agamographs," which are dynamic, complicated, and intended to trick the eye. "Festival" takes the eye on six spiral journeys, which may represent infinite space and time. The vertical stripes in the spirals counteract the curved, circular edges. One of the spirals is a miniature version of "Infinity," another Agam print. Clean lines, sprinkled with vivid color, and stark contrasts make this a classic that you will cherish for years to come.
