	Yaacov Agam Biography, kinetic movement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Agam is one of the pioneer creators of the kinetic movement in art as well as its most outstanding contemporary representative.
		Agam deals with such problems as the 4th dimension, simultaneity and counterpoint in the visual, plastic arts, and he has extended his experiments to application in the fields of literature, music and art theory.
		Agam's work breaks with the established way of expressing reality in limited and "determined statements." He strives to demonstrate the principle of reality as a continuous "becoming" rather than as a circumscribed statement.

	Agam Reconsidered (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Agam (Yaakov Gipstein) was born in 1928 to an orthodox family in Rishon Lezion in the coastal plain south of Tel Aviv, then a small, semi-rural settlement.
		Agam, in contrast with such minimalist artists, is a maximalist, for he has always striven to make the content of each of his works richer in structure and content.
		Whether we accept Yaacov Agam's spiritual interpretations or not, it is his inventive power and virtuosity, as well as the rich and complex artistic content of his work, that have earned him the respect of critics and the public, and which will remain the chief source of interest and appreciation of his works.

	Fine Art - Yaacov Agam at GALLERY M
		Agam travels with fluidity among various artistic traditions and critical labels.The son of a rabbi, Agam can trace his ancestry back six generations to the founder of the Chabad movement in Judaism.
		Agam's approach to art, being conceptual in nature, has been likened to Duchamp's, who expressed the need to put art at the service of the spirit and, because of Agam's employment of motion in his art, he has been compared to Calder, the artist who put sculpture into motion.
		Agam not only defies the boundaries of a specific artistic movement or style, but he also transcends the label artist. He is, through his approaches to art, the philosopher, the poet, the psychologist, the mystic and the teacher.
