intro to computer art

Werner Hornung, born in 1955 in Germany, is a Paris-based freelance graphic artist known for his second major exhibit at the current location. Despite facing the challenges of making a living through his art, Hornung has achieved recognition by winning Donnie awards at MOCA three times. Describing his work as more than mere photomanipulation, he sees it as a unique form of painting, aiming to convey stories, adventures, and emotions. According to Hornung, the essence of artistic creation lies in the skillful manipulation of composition, form, and rhythm, transcending the focus on the tools used. Over the past four years, he has dedicated all his time to crafting images, emphasizing that the most crucial "software" for artistic expression is the inspiration found in the right side of the brain.
