1974 → 1985 → 2025.
I have Peter Beyls work in my collection spanning more than 50 years, and one of the things I love about putting these pieces next to each other is realizing that Peter isn't a historical computer artist. He's a computer artist who has a history.
He has a show of new work coming October 2 to the Bantam Tools Machine Arts Gallery.
Peter Beyls returns to the Machine Arts Gallery this October with an exhibition of entirely new work, including a new series of generative portraits.
Opening Friday, Oct. 2, 6–8 PM in Peekskill. Free slushies.

Vera Molnar’s Transformations, étanche (2010) revisits the catalogue from her first solo exhibition in 1976, an early computer-art sequence moving from geometric order toward disorder. A beautiful artifact of plotter art, publishing, and algorithmic thinking. bre.art/research/library/mol…

Mark Wilson, one of the original American Algorists and a key figure in early digital art, is making new work again. For the first time since the early 1990s, he has returned to the pen plotter: five new drawings and 20+ prints. A rare opportunity to encounter a major early voice in digital art not as history, but in the present tense. Opening Friday 4 September, at the Bantam Tools Machine Arts Gallery, Peekskill. Thanks @bre & @bantamtools !

This animation was developed from plotted intaglio, a printmaking process using a plotter and scribe to engrave copper. The plotted sheets were then transformed into animation using his Plottermation software, resulting in the motion pieces in this flyer and on display Thursday.
