3D Kinetic Art

In the spirit of the Op-Art movement, (well known pieces by artist Yakov Agam) students will “com-blend” two different images into one. Everyone will draw two distinct pictures on two different drawing sheets that will be sculpturally combined and placed in an 8” x 12” Plexiglas frame. Your artwork can be either hung on the wall or displayed free standing using the back easel attachment. When you move around your art project you will be able to see either of your masterful drawings and enjoy the optical principles of Op-Art. This is a perfect project for family education or parent/child activities because while a parent is working on one image, a child can simultaneously complete the other. It is also the ultimate project for Yom Ha'atzmaut (Israeli Independence Day) where participants incorporate images such as the Israeli flag, emblem, pictures of Israel and Jerusalem, and more.
