1985
Emerging Expressions at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, New York
The exhibition showcased over one hundred works by artists such as Richard Ziegler, Nancy Burson and Manfred Mohr.
Mohr was mentioned in a June 14, 1985, New York Times review of the exhibition, which he shared on his website:
“Several of the participants have appeared in New York galleries and one, Manfred Mohr, is noteworthy for being the most automated, since he owned his own computer and has his paintings painted by a plotter.”
