Incorporating art into 'artificial intelligence'

Thomas Webb is an artist who investigates AI's limits with artificial intelligence. He programmed computers that push smiley faces through a mirrored surface on the wall with neutral expressions and allow them to mite the facial expressions of viewers. The outcome, web says, is not a representation of the emotions of the audience, but the surface image generated by AI is not a representation of the sender's real sentiments, just like an emoji used in an post.

Yet not everyone comes with the Leipzig show in a digital box. Chris Drange from Hamburg took on the motifs of the modern age and approached them from a more visual perspective: he expanded the selfies of women of the Kardashian clan and merged them with classical painting elements, making these pictures in China as oil paintings. In the meantime, Kristina Schuldt, a master class graduate from Neo Rauch, refers in her works to the Old Master — except that smartphones are kept in her pockets.
