This new exhibition focuses on Viner’s experimental work with computer drawings created at the Slade School of Art.

Darrell Viner (1946 – 2001) was a pioneer in the field of 3-D computer art. As one of a small number of British artists in the mid-1970s who learnt to write in code, he developed computer systems and built his own equipment to pursue his interest in movement and animation, applying the technology to kinetic and interactive sculpture.

Inscribed on computer paper, using a pen plotter, the drawings have a remarkable hand-drawn quality. They are arranged in formal sequences, each one developed from a single programme, appearing almost as stills from an abstract animation.
