Kinetic art is a form of art that incorporates movement as a fundamental aspect of its design. This movement can be generated by mechanical means, wind, or even the viewer's interaction. Artists use various materials and techniques to create dynamic pieces that engage the audience in unique ways. The origins of kinetic art can be traced back to the early 20th century, with influential figures like Alexander Calder and Jean Tinguely. These artists explored the relationship between art and motion, leading to the development of sculptures and installations that challenge traditional static forms. Kinetic art continues to evolve, often integrating technology and digital elements.
