Manfred Mohr

Manfred Mohr is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Manfred Mohr’s drawings use lines, cubes and grids that feel like musical notation for invisible code. In 1969–70 he made P-18 (random walk), a stark black-and-white sheet where a single jagged line drifts across a grid of numbered squares. The work belongs to a moment when artists in Paris and Stuttgart pushed pens across graph paper to visualize algorithms before screens existed. Want to see how that single line mutates across other grids? Tap P-415 (ascending).
