Yaacov Agam is an Israeli sculptor and experimental artist best known for his contributions to optical and kinetic art. He is the creator of the “Agamograph” which uses barrier-grid animation to present radically different images, depending on the angle from which it is viewed. Agam's work is usually abstract, kinetic art, with movement, viewer participation and frequent use of light and sound.
