Twitter and AI collide to give us an exhibition for our times.
Billed as an art exhibition"curated by everyone and executed by AI", the Hamburg-based Woods Art Institute's experimental exhibition The Art of Trending creates real-time art pieces based on Twitter's Trending Topics. The institute says it aims to create"a stimulus for discussion about the limits of art and whether art is still a uniquely human capacity" and"explore the boundaries of what is art and what makes an artist an artist.
"From prehistoric art to Picasso's Guernica to Banksy’s Flower Thrower, art has always reflected, in its unique way, the moment in which it was conceived. Today, thanks to social networks, we have real-time access to global conversations, trends, and news," it says. The resulting artworks, which are shared on social channels and on billboards in Germany, prove to be an interesting way of illustrating the news, covering topics as up-to-date as rising energy prices, NASA's Dart Mission and the GTA 6 leak. Here are a few examples we've seen so far.This week's NASA mission gets an entry in the exhibition with this painterly scene. We're not sure Wood Institute is being entirely open about exactly how its pieces are being made, though.
