ABSTRACT

Concept + Line is an exhibition featuring some of the most important figures of the early generative art scene, showcasing plotter drawings made from 60’s supercomputers onwards. These pioneering vector works are two-dimensional spatial representations of code and inscribe as much within the parametric spatial approach of Sol Lewitt and as the programmed art of C.E.B. Reas.
