Roger Vilder
° 1938, Canada
Born in Lebanon in 1938, Roger Vilder is a Franco-Canadian artist who studied fine arts at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada.
He now lives and works in Nîmes, France.
His works, all based on the use of movement and its representation, are reliefs using electric motors and industrial equipment, mainly articulated chains and springs, to compose abstract works that evolve from geometric structure to organic form. His interests and the research he has carried out have led Roger Vilder to take an early interest in new technologies: he is one of the pioneers of computer-assisted artistic creation and the use of algorithms.
