Watch POAP mints live!

In collaboration with the estate, EXPANDED.ART is pleased to present the solo show CODED BEAUTY by Herbert W Franke. The show is comprised of eight works of Franke’s series MATH ART created between 1980 and 1995, early generative photographs from the 1950s, his Biennale serigraphy including QUADRATE (1969/70) and further serigraphies. Herbert W. Franke held the belief that the beauty of structures shown in visual arts is founded on mathematical codes throughout his entire career. He spent a lifetime in search of them. In the 1950s, he started generating art based on mathematical principles, which led to his first pieces, LICHTFORMEN and OSZILLOGRAMME, and finally used computer programs from the 1960s on. He began working on the enormous body of work MATH ART in 1980 with the programmer Horst Helbig. Over the course of 15 years, he methodically analyzed the mathematical conceptual worlds, from algebra to stochastics, for the aesthetic component. Even to the spectator who is unfamiliar with mathematics, the opulent visualizations reveal quite varied aesthetic frameworks.
