Computer Drawings and Paintings

Summary: During Miriam Schapiro's tenure at the University of California San Diego teaching studio art classes, she partnered with a physicist also employed at University of California, San Diego. Schapiro would create a drawing, plot the points of the drawing, and the physicist would feed the information into his computer. This allowed the image to become three dimensional and the image was able to be rotated, flipped and manipulated easily. The physicist would print the images out that Schapiro required, and Schapiro would use them to create larger artworks. Schapiro is one of the first artists to use computers to make art. Unfortunately, according to her statements in the "Rip Off File", when the curator of Art and Technology exhibition came to see her work, he left and told a male artist that he would be included in the show if he made work the way that Schapiro had.

This subseries contains drawings and several artworks on board.
