25265 Random Polygon Plotter drawing (1965), 23 x 31cm, Framed 44 x 52 cm
Hommage à Paul Klee (1965), 40 x 40cm, Framed 54.5 x 54.5 cmFrieder Nake is one of the first three artists who realized an exhibition of computer graphics in a gallery in 1965. Although he had no artistic training, but learned programming as a mathematician, he is one of the most interesting artists of the early period.
Both works were created in 1965, with the Homage to Klee being perhaps his most famous work and can be found throughout the literature. This work was so successful, and we're talking about 1965, that he produced a limited screen print of it.
