About Ansi Gallery
ANSI art is a computer artform using text characters on computers with MS-DOS (before windows) which was popular in the late 80’s and early to mid 90’s. It was mainly used for BBSes, which was software that would allow users to dial into the computer over a phone line and, using a terminal program, interact with it, read/post on forums, and exchanging messages, exchange files. being only text on a terminal, artists never really pictured this as a limitation.
A gallery took place in January 2008 highlighting two of the ANSI world's greatest artists, Lord Jazz and Somms. It was curated by Acidjazz and hosted by 20goto10 in San Francisco.
