Holger Lippmann, between painting and programming
Clément Romier | On Google + | Art - Permalink
After a classical sculpture training, german artist Holger Lippmann has progressively turned into digital art, a field he's always exploring since 1994. His approach of digital art has been influenced by electronic music which had a great success when he begun towork on computer. Moreover he describes his creative process as a dance, kepping a big part of improvisation.
His creations, figurative or abstract, result from a play of colours and shapes composition in which we glimpse programmed rythmes and structures. There is a great diversity in this work, and we can clearly feel a testimony from the classical painting (some works remind the pointillism, other are close to De Stijl, or even the Op Art...).
Moreover, if you're interested in this kind of digital art, I suggest you to try Processing, a programming language specially designed to realise this sort of graphics. Holger Lippmann use it for his animated paintings (and maybe for others too). A Javascript fork of Processing is available too.
