Biography

Vera Molnár, a Hungarian-French artist born in 1924, is widely recognized as a pioneering figure in computer and generative art. She studied art history and aesthetics at the Budapest College of Fine Arts and later co-founded the Groupe de Recherche d’Art Visuel (GRAV). Her early work focused on non-representational painting, and by 1968 she began using a computer to create algorithmic drawings.

Molnár’s innovative approach to technology enabled her to control geometric imagery through exploratory steps and rule-based systems. Her use of letters in visual compositions allowed her to move beyond traditional forms, adding new dimensions to her work.

Throughout her prolific career, Molnár’s work has received international recognition through solo exhibitions and participation in group shows around the world. She received the D.velop Digital Art Award, was appointed Chevalier of Arts and Letters and was honored with the Outstanding Merit Award from AWARE. At 99 years old, she continues to create new work, leaving a lasting legacy as a trailblazer in the history of generative art.
