MONIKA FLEISCHMANN & WOLFGANG STRAUSS | BETWEEN ZERO AND ONE

BETWEEN ZERO AND ONE (1988) by Monika Fleischmann and Wolfgang Strauss (MFWS) exemplifies generative art by exploring virtual space through systematic computational transformations of 3D geometric models.

This pioneering series from the late 1980s demonstrates how computational methods can serve artistic expression. By systematically deconstructing 3D models through coordinate manipulation, MFWS created a visual language that bridges architectural precision and artistic abstraction. Their approach echoes broader generative art movements, particularly Vera Molnar's systematic reconfigurations of abstract expression, which paved the way for the digital era. The work continues to resonate with contemporary discussions about digital aesthetics, computational art, and the creative potential of systematic transformation.
