Based on research into light and movement, the artist has been developing a unique body of work for over six decades. In the three prints, all produced in 2006, the artist works on relationships between chromatic fields, seeking to shift the gaze of those who observe them and creating diverse forms within the limits of the work.
Biography
Abraham Palatnik
Internationally recognized as a precursor of the movement known as Kinetic Art, Palatnik's work is featured in the most important collections in Brazil. With an extensive curriculum of exhibitions and awards, the artist is also an inventor. He studied in Tel Aviv, but it was in Brazil, in the 1950s, that he began to develop his work as an artist. He participated in the 1st São Paulo Biennial with his first cinechromatic device and received a special mention from the international jury. From then on, he developed his research on light, color, and movement, creating objects with moving parts that function through electrical energy or "move" through optical illusion.
From the beginning, Palatnik himself made every part of his works: from cutting the wood, a constant material in his works, to designing the small and complex motors that allow some of his pieces to move. He was part of the Grupo Frente, contributing to the debate in Brazil about abstract art, and is considered by Mário Pedrosa to be responsible for developing a language of rupture. He also participated in the Venice Biennale, the Mercosur Biennial, and the important exhibition "Art et Mouvement" in the 1960s. His work is in the collections of the MAM in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, MAC - Niterói, MAB – Brasília, among others.
