In the 1980's, algorithms or computer generated art, fractal art was developed. This art form is based on the calculation of fractal objects represented as images. Fractal art is created using computer software, but it is not handmade art. In some cases, create a hybrid job by merging images that are not fractal into a fractal design. Fractal is an unusual form of art because it is based on mathematical expressions, but it is acknowledged by the protection of digital art, it is not the first example of artists relying on mathematics for artistic creation.
Fractal is a graphical representation of an equation, as with the number itself, the possibilities of unique fractal images are infinite. The formula or formula used to create the fractal art determines how each computer pixel is formed and colored to create the resulting image. By changing the calculation formula, artists can create their own art.
Digital artists have many fractal generation software programs to choose to create their own work. When creating fractal art, the artist sets parameters for his work, runs calculations and expressions, and uses his own program to evaluate his work. Some artists continue to modify their artwork and load it into other software programs to further enhance their functionality. The program called Fractint is the first program widely used by artists.
Interestingly, fractal art is not the first example of a combination of artistic art and mathematics. For example, ancient mosaics, oriental rugs, cuevist art show the relationship between mathematics and art. As a complex pattern, fractals are also found in nature. The most famous fractal art work is usually regarded as Mandelbrot group fractal, it takes 9 hours to complete. There are many online galleries introducing fractal art. The results of fractal art have been used to create prints, screensavers, wallpapers, greeting cards, magnets, T-shirts and so on.
Some famous artists such as William Latham, Vicky Brago Mitchell, Carlos Ginsberg and others use fractal art to create artwork. Fractal art is exhibited in major museums and art galleries around the world. Of course there is also a permanent exhibit. Fractal art is created not only by artists but also by mathematicians and amateurs who are interested in their concepts. Fractal art is thought to be different from computerized art that relies on software creation; fractal art is entirely led by artist / mathematician and is supported by their calculation and correction
The art of installation is usually site based and includes stereoscopic artwork. Installation art always refers to internally installed pieces and external works are called land art. Installation technology started in the 1960s, but it became more prominent in the next decade. Work is permanent or temporary. Many museums and galleries have a special exhibition installation. Other works can be installed in private or public places. Many installation works of art are designed according to the space proposed by them. Unlike the walls of an unexplained art museum exhibiting frame artwork, the space around the installation is part of the work itself. In the field of installation, the workplace environment is part of the artistic experience. Some works of Marcel Duchamp originally are called installation arts, but until the 1960s this word was not actually made.
Founded in 2000, Prix Marcel Duchamp (Marcel Duchamp Award) is an annual prize by young artists of Georges Pompidou Center. In 2004, a group of famous artists and art historians voted for "the most influential art of the 20th century" as testimony to the legacy of Duchamp's art world. On 17th November 1999, the fountain version (owned by Arturo Schwarz) was sold to Sotheby's Dmititris Daskalopoulos in New York for $ 1,762,500. And it insisted that Fountain represented the origin of contemporary art. The price at that time established the world record of Marcel Duchamp's public auction work. The subsequent record has been surpassed by Christie's work in Paris, named Belle Haleine, Eau de Voilette (1921). The price of ready-made perfume bottles in the box has been set at the highest ever $ 11.5 million (8.9 million euros).
