Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnár

Vera Molnár, as one of the pioneers of computer art, was really interested in repetition and changing her work one parameter one at a time. As a practice, I have several elements I wanted to experiment with repetition and randomness,…

Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnar

Some artists might start out their process toward a work of art with rules, with a grammar, but Vera Molnar tries to develop rules as she goes. These rules are derived through repetition, a process she calls “experimental methods of…

Art from Code: A Response to Vera Molńar

Molnar’s work focuses on the breakup of repeating units, mostly expressed as a series of increasingly distruped strokes or shapes. In this project, I have made use of the shape, ellipse. I started with a very simple image with a…

Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnár

Repetition isn’t inherently meaningful or creative, but I think Molnár’s process is interesting in the way it highlights small decisions. The small decisions an artist makes can reflect their conscious and subconscious thought processes in a way that contains meaning.

Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnár

The images above are my series inspired by Vera Molnár’s work and the concept of gradualism. Coming into this assignment, I thought that I had a clear vision as to what type of design I wanted to create. As I…

Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnár

Vera Molnár uses repetition to uncover, play with, and alter the rules of composition in art. She creates her work by destabilizing and then stabilizing a piece until it reaches the image in her head. For my response to Molnár…

Art from Code: A Response to Vera Molnar

For this project, I admit that I may not have completed it correctly. I did not realize that the sequence was supposed to be 1-2-3-4-5 instead of 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5. This misunderstanding was quickly cleared up and I understand…

Art From Code: A Response to Vera Molnár

When exploring Vera Molnár’s work and reading about her process, what struck me most about her art was the way she was able to make works manufactured by coding software look handmade and organic. This effect can be most often…

Art From Code: Response to Vera Molnár

These five images are a series of images respond to Vera Molnar’s grid works. I followed the strategy that Vera used when she tried to develop a series of pictures. I first come out my idea of a new picture…

Art From Code: Response to Vera Molnár

The criticism against computer art being art seems to bring to mind an age old question: what is art? For me, the fields of conceptual art and performance art have already destabilized any sense of boundaries for art-making: in conceptual…

Art From Code: Response to Vera Molnár

I find that there are endless possibilities for the use of repetition in a creative outlet. It’s easier to see repetition as creative when the repeated object is already complex. Either a repeated complete image, drawing, or line of text…
