Book condition : very good. - Artist book published by Peter Lowe (1938-). He was connected to the Systems Group, an artistic movement active in England during the 1970s. Its members approached abstract art in an unusually rational way by using geometric and mathematical systems as the basis for their work. Though the group disbanded only a few years after its creation, its influence has been widely noted across mainland Europe. Yet the artists who formed the Systems Group haven’t received quite as much attention in their native England. Indeed, despite his impressive oeuvre, Lowe is part of a coterie of artists whom English art historian Alastair Grieve has called 'the neglected avant-garde.' Based upon his thought about interior and exterior space in 1985, and with the help of computer artist Ernest Edmonds, neuroscientist Chris Frith, Peter Lowe made together with film maker and computer scientist this prototype book of images based on triangles and decagons.
