With over 20 years of experience in digital art, I am happy to help you build your collection – from early pioneers to today’s innovators. From Vera to Harm, from Rafaël to Manfred. Send me a DM if you're looking for a specific work of art!
Certain artworks survive the test of time. Especially those by the originators who did things for the first time. @supperman: “Brian Eno once said about the Velvet Underground that they sold only 1,000 records, but everybody who bought one started a band. That’s the kind of influence we should look for. Time is the key. 30 years later, people are still asking me about work from the very beginning" That’s real legacy. https://t.co/7YC9syVgpA Thanks @postanika
Even the Pope is into early digital art now😃. A groundbreaking work by pioneer Roman Verostko was presented to him. From the very beginning of computer art in the 1960s to the Vatican🔥. Thanks @ragnar_art for the tip.
An introduction into Vera Molnar. Since the 1940s, Vera has expanded the possibilities of digital and generative art. Starting with traditional abstract painting, her work evolved into pioneering computer-generated art /1
Meet us at @ArtBasel in June to visit her first ever major solo exhibition brought by Oniris Gallery & Interface Gallery. Looking forward to meet you! /8
Her art has been widely exhibited, from the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Pompidou in Paris to the Venice Biennale 2022 (foto), cementing her legacy as a "Grande Dame" of digital art /7
Weekendtip. The Spalter Collection has just updated its online archive, now featuring more then 1000 works of early digital and computer art. The new filters, especially “dominant color” make it an excellent resource to explore the collection and find inspiration. Highly recommended. Special thanks to @twid and of course @annespalter@michaelspalter /1
Since the early day, the question has always been: who decides what counts as art? @RGB_MTL answers it differently. Artists curate artists.
5th edition. Montreal, August 28–29.

Two thinkers. Two angles. One complete theory of computer art.
Abraham Moles → the receiver
Max Bense → the object
Between them, they covered almost everything. 🎨💻 #DigitalArt#ArtHistory#ComputerArt"
It is all about Vera Molnar the coming weeks! There are never enough books about her and her artworks. I will bring them along to @ArtBasel. Ask me when you visit our booth #VeraMolnar#ArtBasel#ArtBooks
@trevorpaglen about digital art and @ArtBasel "So why does digital art still provoke skepticism in many corners of the art world? Why have we as an industry been comparatively slow to adapt? I am not interested in work that flatters its audience, mistakes spectacle and market logic for ideas, or reduces art to endlessly optimized colorful baubles generated by systems trained on auction results. I am very old-fashioned"
"Which is exactly why I think digital art deserves serious attention. The artists in this presentation, from Harold Cohen and Vera Molnar to Andreas Gursky and Hito Steyerl, from Avery Singer and @john__gerrard to @_deafbeef and @williamapan have all challenged me to see the world differently" Read more about his opinion regarding digital art. https://t.co/1SRENGEAio
