The Anne and Michael Spalter Digital Art Collection is one of the world's largest and most important privately held collections devoted to early computer art.spalterdigital.com Providence, RIJoined April 2026
New to the Spalter Digital Collection:
“Girls with Maple Leaves” - A 1967 plotter drawing in ink on paper by Leslie Mezei.
Made in Canada's centennial year on the University of Toronto's IBM 7094 and a CalComp plotter, it is one of Mezei's maple-leaf series: two digitized drawings, a girl and a leaf, scattered across a ten by ten grid by a random routine in his own SPARTA drawing language.

Mark Wilson: New Plotter Drawings and Four Decades of Prints at Machine Arts Gallery
Computer art pioneer Mark Wilson opens a solo exhibition at Machine Arts Gallery in Peekskill, New York, on Friday, September 4, 2026, with a reception from 6 to 8pm and the artist in attendance. The exhibition runs through September. Gallery hours are Saturdays and Sundays 10am to 6pm, Fridays by chance.
The show, in the gallery Bantam Tools runs at 107 S Division St, brings together more than twenty prints spanning Wilson’s career and five new pen plotter drawings, his first plotted works since the early 1990s. (!)
Wilson, one of the original American Algorists, bought a Texas Instruments home computer in 1980 and has written his own code ever since, at a time when, as he tells Machine Arts Magazine , “The art world in those days was very contemptuous of anything made with a computer.”
The Spalter Digital collection holds 36 works by Wilson , from two 1981 Hatchpoint plotter drawings to inkjet prints from 2010.

New to the Spalter Digital Collection: Vera Molnár, "A Céline D. / En Diagonale" (2012).
Molnár's method never changed: set a rule, introduce a controlled disturbance, let it compound across a series.
This 2012 canvas applies that method without a computer. It was painted the year of her retrospective at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen and is dedicated to a "Céline D."
Acrylic on canvas mounted on wood, 200 × 10 cm, signed, titled and dated verso.

New to the Spalter Digital Collection: “Triangles I-V” - 2023 serigraphs on Rives BFK paper by Vera Molnár.
At 99, the last year of her life, in a retirement home, Molnár watched light come through her door and cross the floor all day. She had spent sixty years asking what happens when a shape shifts slightly, and these five prints ask it one last time, without a computer.
Printed at Éditions FANAL in Basel, a workshop in an old paper mill in the Sankt Alban valley where she had been making prints since 1991.

New to the Spalter Digital Collection: "Transjovian Pipeline," a 1979 cibachrome print by David Em.
When this image was made, Em was artist-in-residence at NASA's JPL. He was inspired in part by the deep-space astronomy environment during the historic flybys of Jupiter and Saturn by the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft. He made this on a PDP-11, using software written by Jim Blinn.
Em's images brought widespread public attention to digital art. It became one of the most reproduced digital images of the 1980s.

New to the Spalter Digital Collection: “Carres, Rectangles, et Triangles Du Cycle "A La Recherche de Paul Klee" (Squares, Rectangles, and Triangles From the "In Search of Paul Klee" series)”
Vera Molnár spent the early 70s chasing Paul Klee's geometry two ways at once: an IBM mainframe drove the plotter versions, and gouaches like this 1972 one she painted herself, following the same rules.
