“Fleeting Image” is an abstract artwork created by Yaacov Agam in 1965, belonging to the Concretism art movement. The piece exemplifies the principles of Concretism, emphasizing geometrical shapes and a sense of dynamism within its rigid structure.
The artwork is composed of a series of vertical elements, each varying in color and width. The palette includes black, white, red, yellow, and shades of gray, arranged in a pattern that evokes a sense of rhythm and movement. The repetition and variation of colors and shapes create an optical interplay that changes as the viewer’s perspective shifts, adding a dynamic quality to the static composition. The overall aesthetic is defined by its clean lines and stark contrasts, characteristic of Agam’s innovative approach to abstract art.
