AI: All Idiots

AI: All Idiots Meet Factory Prague 15. 9. — 5. 12. 2021 Reader: https://www.galleryreader.com/exhibition/ai-all-idiots/

The language of the algorithms of machine learning is uncompromising and vulgar. It is the language of unscrupulous statistics with the cynical goal of extracting value (information) wherever possible. The conception of AI: All Idiots appropriates this vulgar language and lays bare the degradation of human beings into statistically more or less important objects; spectacular sources of data. To referents of stereotypes that are to be statistically confirmed and forever repeated. The AI: All Idiots exhibition project represents a cross section across “artistic” and “artificial” intelligence on a sample group of Czech artists. This engenders an attentional shift from the individual artistic products to the fact that art also exists within the context of digital technologies where artificial intelligence encounters them.

What I like about ART is that you can create your own story based on every piece and sometimes if you have an exhibition where you just enter a space and you find a piece of art composed of multiple pieces that you can gather sometimes and create a bigger story and sometimes you just can’t get it. This time I’m pretty sure that I couldn’t as we went to visit meet factory and the gallery curator Zuzana Jakalova. We saw a project that she was working on and it was composed of multiple pieces such as paintings, a running shoe, material for cleaning, marble, vacuum tube … I was looking at it and trying my hard to understand it on my own but I couldn’t, even though I tried to look at it as one piece but still couldn’t and this is something that can happen sometimes if you don’t have background information on the project. I went to look after into the profile of the artist and it said that in her curatorial work she deals with topics of failure, unsuccess and embarrassment so here is  an info that might be helpful if you see one of her exhibition you might succeed in analysing it.
