Vera Molnár (born 1924) is a Hungarian media artist living and working in France. Molnar is widely considered to be a pioneer of computer art and generative art, and is also one of the first women to use computers in her art practice.[1]
Born in Hungary, she studied aesthetics and art history at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. In the 1940s and 50s, she created non-representational paintings. By 1959 she was making combinatorial images; in 1968, she would use a computer to create her first algorithmic drawings.
In the 1960s, she founded two groups in France concerned with the use of technology within the arts: the Groupe de Recherche d’Art Visuel and Art et Informatique. In 1976 took place her first solo exhibition in the gallery of the London Polytechnic.[2]
Her work has been widely collected by major museums; in 2007, she was named a Chevalier of Arts and Letters in France.
She was selected as one of 213 artists for the 59th Venice Biennale in 2022.
