In From Image to Interaction, Arjen Mulder traces evolutionary lines in the fine art of the past five hundred years that have led directly to the interactive art of today. He investigates the origins of modern art from Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo to Kandinsky, Mondrian and Paul Klee, whom he regards not only as great artists but above all as great media theorists. Step by step, Mulder develops a surprising perspective on the genealogy of art from 1910 to 2010 and the role and value of visual culture and design in the present.
