"A lot of people know her for the images she made of Kraftwerk. Since the 70s she has been working with art and computer, she was the first to digitalise a female body. A loft of software and hardware developed by men. If there has been a different past of it being created by women, we would have a totally different conversation today."
ABOUT
Rebecca Allen is an internationally recognized artist inspired by the aesthetics of motion, the study of perception and behavior and the potential of advanced technology. From the mid 1970’s, Allen was a rare female artist working in the early stages of computer art and digital technology. Her pioneering artwork, which spans five decades and utilizes various forms of digital media, explores ideas around physicality and virtuality, nature and illusion, the body and the mind, and what it means to be human as technology redefines our sense of reality and identity.
With degrees from Rhode Island School of Design and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Rebecca moves fluidly between artist studio and research lab, using her research to inform her art. Though widely recognized now as a contemporary visual arts medium, Allen was one of the first artists to utilize the computer as an artistic tool to make art involving human motion simulation, AI and Artificial Life algorithms and other generative techniques.
Allen’s work is exhibited internationally and is part of permanent collections including, Whitney Museum of American Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art (NY), Centre Georges Pompidou and Zabludowicz Collections. Previous collaborators include artists such as Kraftwerk, Mark Mothersbaugh (Devo), Peter Gabriel, Carter Burwell, Twyla Tharp, and Nam June Paik.
