Progression 21-A 1965

"Progression 21-A" is a 1965 work by Brazilian artist Abraham Palatnik. It is a kinetic sculpture constructed from a grid of small, wooden squares. The individual squares, each featuring a unique woodgrain pattern, are arranged in a repetitive pattern, creating a dynamic visual experience. The work's title and the repetition of the woodgrain pattern refer to Palatnik's exploration of the "progression" of forms in visual art. The artist is known for pioneering kinetic art in Brazil, often utilizing light and movement to create immersive sensory experiences for viewers.
