From the Haggadah of Passover, 1985 - Published by Capepark LTD., London - Printed by Aterlier Arcay in Paris // Yaacov Agam's Haggadah – Four Sons (1985) is a silkscreen print that brings a modernist, abstract interpretation to the traditional Jewish theme from the Passover Haggadah.

Each son is represented in a separate vertical panel, distinguished by distinct colors, symbols, and facial features, encapsulating their different characteristics. The Hebrew text accompanies each figure, linking the modernist visual language with its traditional roots.

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.
