This paper aims to discuss algorithmic art (also known as computer-generated or generative art) in a comparative perspective with artistic practices generated by means of non-computer-based methods. More precisely, it seeks to trace art-historical relationships between algorithmic art and certain examples from modern art movements. The artist whose works are chosen as the starting point for this investigation is the German artist Manfred Mohr. The investigation will firstly attempt to identify key features of algorithmic art based on its formal visual properties as well as production techniques involved. In the second step, it will discuss these observed characteristics in a comparative perspective with historical precedents and contemporary practices from non-computer art. By comparing aesthetic principles and techniques used by selected artists, the paper seeks to contribute towards a growing awareness that it is necessary to consider algorithmic art within the broader historical context of its relationships with non-digital art forms.

算法艺术及其艺术与历史的关系

本文旨在以比较的视角与通过非基于计算机的方法生成的艺术实践来讨论算法艺术（也称为计算机生成或生成艺术）。更确切地说，它试图追溯算法艺术与现代艺术运动中的某些实例之间的艺术历史关系。选择该作品作为调查起点的艺术家是德国艺术家Manfred Mohr。该研究将首先尝试根据算法艺术的形式视觉特性以及所涉及的生产技术来确定算法艺术的关键特征。在第二步中，它将与非计算机艺术的历史先例和当代实践相比，以比较的角度讨论这些观察到的特征。通过比较选定艺术家的美学原理和技巧，
