Interior view of a Yaacov Agam immersive installation in Paris. Walls, floor, and ceiling are covered in dense vertical colour-block bands in red, orange, and black. A gold spherical sculpture sits on the floor beneath a triangular frame. A mirrored panel at centre-right reflects a separate section of the room tiled in yellow, blue, and multicolour blocks.

Yaacov Agam Installation, Paris — Colour and Mirror

5 October 2017 · Paris

Inside a Yaacov Agam installation in Paris, the walls, floor, and ceiling are mapped in dense geometric colour-block patterns — bands of red, orange, and black that shift with every degree of viewing angle. A warm red-orange mirror panel bisects the frame, doubling the pattern and folding the room back on itself. The kinetic op art tradition is right at the surface here: colour is the architecture, and the mirror makes the room its own subject.
