What is a multiple?

Series of art objects that are identical commissioned and produced by an artist in accordance with his idea, usually a limited edition that is specifically made for the purpose of selling. Multiples have been said by many to be the most reasonably priced and accessible contemporary art out there in the market, fun and value for money. They are brought together by their lack of unique nature that's usually regarded as a vital prerequisite in artwork.

Kinetic art

It encompasses a variety of styles and techniques that overlap.
