The artwork, titled “Cele Carnival,” is a poster created by the artist Yaacov Agam, who is associated with the Op Art movement. The poster exemplifies the dynamic and optical effects characteristic of this genre.
“CELE Carnival” features a vibrant interplay of colors and geometric shapes that create an illusion of movement and depth. The artwork is dominated by concentric circles interspersed with rectangular segments in a spectrum of colors, including red, yellow, blue, green, and purple. These elements are arranged in a manner that engages the viewer’s perception, with the overlapping shapes and gradients contributing to a sense of dynamism and visual complexity. The use of contrasting hues and the meticulous alignment of shapes produce an optical effect that makes the composition appear to shift and pulsate. The artist’s signature, ‘Agam,’ is displayed in the bottom right corner, adding a finishing touch to this visually stimulating piece.
