Description:
Poster for an early exhibition of Dóra Maurer which took place in 1966. This was the artist's third exhibition, but only the second that was truly significant.
Dora Maurer (born 1937 in Budapest) is a Hungarian artist that has spanned a 50-year career. With an emphasis in photography, film, graphic design, and more, Maurer has made a household name for herself in the art world. Gaining most of her popularity in the 1970s, with avant-garde work, Maurer has made her art career off of contemporary and modern influenced works that have been shown worldwide. All of her art is based on mathematical, and complex system processes. Most of Maurer's work follows the theme of showing options to the viewer and what the viewer can do with those options. Many of her works break down simple actions so the viewer can really view the piece as movement, not a photograph of movement. Dora Maurer is not only an artist, but she has been a professor at Faculty of Fine Arts in Budapest and a curator. (source: wikipedia.org)
