With over 20 years of experience in digital art, I am happy to help you build your collection – from early pioneers to today’s innovators. From Vera to Harm, from Rafaël to Manfred. Send me a DM if you're looking for a specific work of art!

One practical step for collectors. Make a separate list of female artists in your digital holdings and ask yourself whether it reflects the actual history of the field. Often the answer is: not yet.

Today, Dr. Bill is revisiting his own 1970s plotter archive and releasing historic works as NFTs and Bitcoin Ordinals. It’s not a reinvention, it’s a continuation. The same curiosity that once made him teach computers how to draw with pens now lets those drawings live on in new digital spaces. His story runs in a straight line from punch cards to smart contracts. /5

Beyond making the work himself, he taught generations of students that code could be a visual language. He helped build some of the earliest computer graphics and electronic media programs, and later brought that same mindset to Pixar and other companies bridging the gap between art, technology and industry/4

In the early 70s and 80s, while most artists were still pushing paint with brushes, @drbillkolomyjec was feeding punch cards into IBM mainframes, teaching computers to draw with actual pens on paper /1

ArtMeta put together a serious 70-year survey at @ArtBasel (Zero 10). From early pioneers like Frieder Nake and Laposky all the way to contemporary AI. Especially good and clear explanations from Georg @SNOWCASH432 . Take some time for it this weekend

Opening tonight 6-9pm: Judgment and Calculation – Three Systems of Colour A group exhibition with work by Elisabeth Sonneck, Carsten Becker, Harm van den Dorpel HAUNT Kluckstraße 23 10785 Berlin Images: 3 protoseeders from 2023, each 70 × 70cm / 27.6 × 27.6″

🚨@kimasendorf 's PXL opens at @node from July 16. A dedicated presentation of his work. Few artists in generative art combine technical precision and visual elegance quite like he does. Already really looking forward to this one.

Almost summer holiday. Normally after Art Basel the art world slows down a bit... but not this year. Digital art is still going strong. Happy life of a gallerist😆🤣#digitalart

🎆@harmvddorpel is currently featured in two group exhibitions. New algorithmic colour work appears in Judgment and Calculation at HAUNT Berlin. And Sur Real Real at Lohaus Gallery in Munich presents botanical plotter drawings from 2017 alongside new generative animations. The shows offer a clear view of how he continues to move between archival and emerging systems in his practice.

Pace had the works. @fellowshiptrust had the fellowship. We’re following that same track at Interface Gallery: focused roster, deep relationships, daily digital presence. Not just selling digital art but building a digital community together.

Georg Nees didn’t wait for the art world’s permission. He didn’t beg for validation. He simply let the code speak and it never stopped. Who’s your favorite early pioneer of computer/generative art? Drop their name below (Next pioneer thread coming ;) /5 #EarlyDigitalArt #GenerativeArt #ComputerArtPioneers

It’s now 2026. We’re all watching AI spit out infinite variations from a single prompt. Georg Nees was doing the exact same thing in 1965, with punch tape, a plotter pen, and mathematical algorithms. He proved something timeless: true creativity doesn’t require breaking the rules. It can emerge from strict rules + a little controlled chaos /4

Most people think generative art started with AI around 2022. Wrong. In February 1965, a mathematician quietly hung computer generated drawings on a gallery wall in Stuttgart. No paint. No brushes. No human hand touched the pen. Just code on punch tape running a mechanical plotter. This was the world’s first computer art exhibition. And almost nobody cared /1

Judgment and Calculation – 𝘋𝘳𝘦𝘪 𝘚𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘯 𝘍𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘦 Upcoming Berlin group exhibition with work by Carsten Becker, Elisabeth Sonneck and yours truly. Opening July 11, 2026 (6–9pm) HAUNT Kluckstr. 23a / Hof 10785 Berlin, Tiergarten

Sorry for calling Fellowship a boutique gallery for digital art, for lack of a better term. But I also argue that Fellowship might just be the future of the gallery model. Yes, this starts with Taylor Swift. No, it's not really about Taylor Swift.

Do you know the work of @schwittlick_ ? There’s a quiet discipline to his practice that really stands out. Year after year, he releases artworks that feels fully resolved, sharp, minimal, and strangely human. His new show opens at @DAMDigitalArt this week. Take my advice and take a closer look!
