The Work of ANTON PERICH (via Isabel Draves on Google+)
In relation to a previous post about a felt tip printer, here is another artist who has been working similarly since the 70s. I think I may have covered this guy before, but I never came across his website.
“I was born near Dubrovnik, Croatia. From 1965 to 1970 I lived in Paris, I was active for several years with the Lettrist Group, as a painter, poet and filmmaker. From 1967 to 1969 I created and ran an international underground film program at American Center on Boulevard Raspail in Paris. I have shown films by Heliczer, Iimura, Mekas, Warhol, Lemaitre, Bassan, Auder etc. I moved to New York in 1970.
In the early Seventies I was a contributing photographer for Andy Warhol’s INTERVIEW Magazine. A selection of my photographs is now in the collection of the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the Warhol Foundation, and the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation in New York.
… In 1977-78 I designed and built an electric painting machine (an early predecessor of the ink jet printer/scanner) and in 1979 I had my first show of electric paintings at the Tony Shafrazi Gallery in New York. I was an early pioneer of electric/digital/computer art.”
