Daniel Spoerri
Daniel Spoerri (Switzerland, 1930–2024) was a pioneering artist and writer, best known for his 'snare-pictures'—assemblages capturing everyday objects, notably meal remnants, affixed to surfaces and displayed vertically. A key figure in the Nouveau Réalisme movement, he also founded the Eat Art movement, exploring the intersection of art and gastronomy. Spoerri's works are featured in major institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou.
What is Generative Art?
Generative art refers to art that is wholly or partly created through an autonomous system. This system can be independent or non-human, capable of determining features that would otherwise be decided by the artist. The generative system can act as the creator or as a collaborator with the artist. Generative art often refers to works generated algorithmically by computers, where the system plays a significant role in the creation process.
