Agam's work is related to the rejection of the traditional concepts of painting and sculpture in favor of the kinetic and op art. His paintings and three dimensional objects can be either transformed manually or else are made in such a way that the images shift and change as one walks in front of them.
Agam stresses the importance of the two dimensional quality of what in reality may have three dimensions. His creative activity includes theater and architectural projects, film making, writing and typography. All his preoccupations involve the concept of time, change and movement. Agam have had numerous exhibitions and installations worldwide, at the MoMA in New York, in St. Louise, Paris, Dusseldorf, Jerusalem and more.
Midnight Light represents one of Agam's most recognized style, a two dimensional work with dynamic, geometric and colored shapes that create a misleading three dimensional movement. The grid enhances the works vertical and horizontal directions while the colors deceive the eye and seemingly create a movement.
