Collaborating with Venetian Craftsmen, Computer Art Icon Vera Molnar Renders Generative Geometry in Glass

A collaboration between celebrated computer art pioneer Vera Molnar and a team of traditional Venetian glassmakers, Icône 2020 premieres at New Murano Gallery, Venice, in an eponymous exhibition. The gold-dusted glass slab—Molnar’s first use of the medium—is punctured by an ‘on brand’ parametric grid of trapezoids. Instigated in 2019 by curator and producer Francesca Franco, the collaboration aims to connect two traditions: that of making computer art and that of making glass.
