Yaacov Agam is widely considered to be one of the most important Israeli artists of our time. Agam's art often utilizes optical illusions and visual trickery to create his desired visual effect. The artist has successfully worked across different media, including works on canvas, sculpture, drawing, and printmaking.
"Galaxy Noon" (2013) was purchased by the current owner directly from the artist at his Paris studio. Agams work can be found in countless museum collections worldwide, including the Guggenheim Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York.
