Deux carrés découpés en M (10.07.07)

2007

Vera Molnar

Painting

100 x 200 cm

In "Deux carrés découpés en M", where the remaining shape forms an “inverted” M, Vera Molnár honors Mondrian and Malevich, who inspired her experimental work on perception and the transformation of shapes. These squares also represent her ongoing reflection on the aesthetics of the letters of the alphabet, a theme she began exploring in the 1960s.

Vera Molnár was an artist of Hungarian origin, who received classical painting training before settling in Paris. A pioneer of computer art, she created an “imaginary machine” as early as 1959, allowing her to draw images generated by algorithms and programs she designed herself. She moved towards geometric abstraction, favoring the square and incorporating chance and disorder into her works. Her work explores form, its transformation, and perception while paying homage to the masters of abstraction.
