SOUS LES ETOILES GALLERY

16 East 71 Street (Madison-Fifth)

Generative Aesthetics: Gottfried Jager and Manfred Mohr, are two German artists pioneers of the Generative Art and are exhibited for the first time in United States together. In photography, since the early 1960s, Gottfried Jäger has been working in the field of “abstract” photography. He regards the photographic process not only as a medium for conveying external conditions, but as an artistic object in its own right. With this approach, he is the forerunner of a new generation of photographic artists, and his name has become one of the best known in German photographic art. Manfred Mohr is considered a pioneer of digital art based on algorithms. After discovering Prof. Max Bense’s information aesthetics in the early 1960’s, Mohr’s artistic thinking was radically changed. Within a few years, his art transformed from abstract expressionism to computer generated algorithmic geometry.

Gallery Talk: 3pm
The gallery is pleased to host a gallery tour presenting the artworks of these two pioneers of Generative Art.
