Summary/Abstract: An ambition of the computer since its birth is to create spectacle, even arts. Was this effort successful? Who is the artist in this case, the person or the machine? These are the questions which Magda Czigány scrutinizes describing, examining and criticizing the works of Larry Rivers, Howard Hodgkin, David Hockney, Ruth Leavitt, Darcy Gerbarg, Harold Cohen, Y.
