Historical Description

Solomon states of Double Metamorphosis II, "Comprised of 5 serigraphs, it is the two-dimensional version of Agam's three-dimensional polymorphic painting in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York City. Movement within time and space is a primary component of these works. The transformations from absence of color to the full presence of color and from line to form, make this suite a double metamorphosis - a visual coming together of simplicity within complexity" (Solomon, p. 24).

These works are each hand-signed by Yaacov Agam (Rishon LeZion, 1928 - ) in ink in the lower right of each image. They are numbered in the progression 33, 37, 39, 30, 39/180 in the lower left.
