Howard Wise

In April 1965, Howard Wise put on a show of computer art by me and a colleague, Béla Julesz, who was doing 3D stereograms. Some people say it was one of the earliest exhibits of digital art in the United States.

Down the street, a couple blocks over from the Museum of Modern Art, was Howard Wise and his gallery on the second floor. Nam June Paik's video was shown at the Howard Wise Gallery. Gerald Oster, a professor at Brooklyn Poly, was doing op art. That got shown there too. Howard Wise and that gallery was extremely innovative.
