Joseph Nechvatal was born in Chicago in 1951. He studied fine art and philosophy at Southern Illinois University, Cornell University, and Columbia University. He went on to receive a PhD in Philosophy of Art at The University of Wales. Nechvatal’s body of work is difficult to categorize, but largely falls within the realm of post-conceptual computer-assisted paintings and computer animations. His early works, such as those seen here, are largely comprised of photomechanical enlargements of graphite drawings.
