Yaacov Agam (born 1928) is an Israeli-French sculptor and experimental visual artist best known as a pioneer of kinetic art and optical art, creating works that change appearance depending on viewing angle or movement.
Agam is best known for dynamic, interactive artworks – especially Agamographs (multi-image lenticular works) and kinetic sculptures that invite viewer participation. He also created major public works including fountains and architectural installations.
Agam’s art combines abstract forms, geometry, color theory, optics, and motion. He pioneered techniques in which colors and shapes shift depending on the viewer’s perspective, often blending light, sound, and three-dimensional movement to engage the observer.
Yaacov Agam created many innovative works that explore movement, perception, and color. Some of Agam’s notable works include:
