Now You See It, Now You Don't!
Gan Daled made beautiful chanukiyot to enhance the celebration of Chanukah. The chanukiyot are styled after the artwork of Yaacov Agam. Agam is an Israeli artist, the son of a rabbi in Rishon Le Zion, and is known for his kinetic art. In kinetic or "op" art, the specially arranged patterns of line and color seem almost to move.
When looking at the chanukiyot from a certain angle, we see our Hebrew names. When shifting our gaze just a bit, we are treated to a view of Yerushalayim.

Happy Chanukah!
