Screenprint on mirror / Agamograph - Signed in marker // American Flag by Yaacov Agam, circa 1980, is a mixed media sculpture employing Agam’s signature technique, the Agamograph. The piece features a stylized American flag rendered on a mirror surface through screen printing. The work uses optical effects, making the flag appear to shift and transform as the viewer changes perspective, emphasizing Agam’s exploration of movement and perception. The reflective quality adds an interactive element, encouraging viewers to engage with the work dynamically. This piece exemplifies Agam's innovative approach to kinetic art and his skill in merging patriotic symbolism with optical illusion.

What is kinetic art?
Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.
