Roman Verostko - From Drawing by Hand to Drawing by Machine: 1947 to 2011


March 19, 2012

Where: Room 1101 Fine Arts Center, BGSU

Time: 7:30 PM

Born in the USA in 1929, Roman is best known for his richly colored algorithmic pen and brush drawings. As a Bush fellow at MIT in 1970 he set out to “humanize our 

experience of emerging technologies”. Now, 40 years later, his quest to do so continues in his “mergings” of  “mind & machine”. Primarily a painter in his pre-algorist work, he also created electronically synchronized audio-visual programs in the 1960’s.  In 1970 he followed a course in Fortran at the Control Data Institute and exhibited his first fully algorist work, “The Magic Hand of Chance” in 1982. His generative software controls 14 pen plotter stalls achieving exquisite penmanship and expressive brush strokes guiding both ink pens and brushes with plotters. His recent show at the DAM in Berlin, “Algorithmic Poetry”, celebrates nature via visual forms generated with brushes and ink pens driven with his algorithms. In 2008 he merged past and present by transforming his 1970’s drawings into a stunning array of digital images for an Upsidedown Book and Mural for the Fred Rogers Center, Latrobe, PA, USA.
