Famous for his dystopian landscapes, German CGI artist Gerhard Mantz dies at the age of 71 in Berlin. A successful sculptor before embracing 3D modelling software in the 1990s, Mantz’ renders showed at MIT, MoMA, and the LA Center for Digital Art. He was also one of five artists exhibited at HaW’s “Natürlich Künstlich” in 2001, one of the first digital art shows in Berlin.
