Peter Horvath
1961–

Peter Horvath works in video, sound, photo-based and new media. Camera in hand since age 6, he inhaled darkroom fumes until his late 20s, then began exploring art forms in new media. He immersed himself in digital technologies at the birth of the Web, co-founded 6168.org, a site for net.art, and adopted techniques of photo-montage, which he uses in his web-based and 2D works. Exhibitions include FILE 2003 (São Paulo, Brazil), Musée du Québec (Québec City, Canada), Chiang Mai New Media Art Festival (Chiang Mai, Thailand) as well as venues in New York, Tokyo, London, and numerous net.art showings. He is a founding member of the net.art collective Hell.com. He likes to consider a future when high bandwidth will be free.
