On stand 47” tall 7” x 7” Piece only 7” wide by 9” by 2 7/8” wide normal tarnish and wear It comes with the magazine cover of the artist and the custom made Lucite base. Artist Biography from the Guggenheim Yaacov Agam B. 1928, RISHON-LE-ZION, PALESTINE Yaacov Agam was born in Rishon-le-Zion, Palestine (now Israel), in 1928, the son of a rabbi and kabbalist, Yehoshua Gibstein. He studied at the Bezalel Academy in Jerusalem under Mordecai Ardon in 1946, moved to Zurich and then Paris, and studied at the Atelier d'art abstrait and at the Académie de la grande chaumière. While in Zurich, he met and was influenced by artist and teacher Johannes Itten, who was propagating Bauhaus ideas; he also found inspiration in Vasily Kandinsky's defense of abstraction, ber das Geistige in der Kunst. Insbesondere in der Malerei (On the Spiritual in Art: And Painting in Particular, 1911). His first solo exhibition was at the Galerie Craven in Paris in 1953, entitled Peintures en Mouvement (Paintings in movement), where he showed two series of early work. In one, grids of painted strips that incorporated different designs on opposite sides created images that merged and changed as spectators shifted their viewing position (a type of lenticular print that eventually became known as an Agamograph). In the other, his Transformable Pictures (Images transformables, 1953–61), viewers could manually activate works and rearrange their visual elements. While not the first Optical-Kinetic artist, Agam encouraged spectator participation at a time when such strategies were rare. He exhibited, along with other pioneers of Kinetic art including Alexander Calder and Jean Tinguely, at the Le mouvement (Movement) exhibition at the Galerie Denise René in 1955. He continued to produce abstract, Kinetic work that incorporated light, sound, and viewer participation. He also produced many public commissions, including a moving salon environment at the Elysée Palace in Paris in 1972. In the space, walls were covered with lenticular imagery; transparent doors were included; and a sculpture was placed on a Kinetic carpet. In all, the environment shifted according to the viewer's position. In 1979, Agam was asked to make a work of art to commemorate the peacemaking efforts between Anwar el-Sadat and Prime Minister Menachem Begin...Category

- Jean-Marie Giguère Abstract Fish Art Glass Sculpture Circa 1999Located in Miami Beach, FLBeautiful abstract fish art glass sculpture is by Canadian glass artist, Jean-Marie Giguère. He uses the Graal technique to create layers in the glass. The is piece is translucent with 2 engraved green fish with orange interior that reflects on the translucent section to make a muted orange color on the translucent area. Inside the orange section is a blue section (that I believe represents water) which also reflects on the bottom of the piece. Signed and dated 1999. From Espace Verre, Giguère’s has been working with the Graal technique. "This process combines glassblowing and engraving within layers of glass, revealing a smooth decorative pattern. He is inspired by everything, while appropriating each element. "I have searched for the common denominators to all humans, to use them as themes in my compositions: the body, territory, family, home, ancestors, religion, temples, God, nature, food, lovemaking, as well as symbols of identity," says Giguère.Jean-Marie Giguère Biography from artist site: FORMATION 1988-1989 Travail du verre, Cours Intensif, Centre des métiers du verre du Québec, QC, Canada 1981-1983 Arts visuels : Verre I & II avec Pierre Osterrath, Université Laval, QC, Canada PERFECTIONNEMENT 2012 Sérigraphie et peinture sur verre avec Joseph Cavalliéri 2003 Technique tchèque de verre en fusion avec Francisek Eis 2002 Technique du Graal peint avec Morna Tudor 2000 Verre soufflé avec Philip Baldwin 1998 Taille du verre épais avec Gérald Bérubé 1997 Verre au chalumeau avec George Sarfi 1995 Traitement de surface avec Ronald Labelle 1994 Verre soufflé avec John Robinson 1993 Composition de décor avec Maurice Savoie 1992 Technique du Graal peint avec Lance Friedman 1991 Verre soufflé avec Lino Tagliapétra Verre soufflé avec Daniel Chrichton Pâte de verre avec Steven Weinberg...Category
