“Signals,” created by the artist Takis in 1957, is a notable example of Kinetic Art and falls within the installation genre.
The artwork comprises a series of thin, vertical metal rods of varying heights, mounted on different bases. These rods are adorned with small, abstract elements at various points along their lengths, each suggesting motion and interaction with their environment. The minimalist and elegant design emphasizes movement and the interplay between stability and dynamism, reflecting the core essence of Kinetic Art, where motion is an intrinsic part of the artwork itself.
