Human Intuition and Artificial Intelligence Collide in Sparks @ Future Gallery in Berlin

Sparks, a group exhibition featuring works by Rush Baker IV, Kévin Bray, Amalie Jakobsen, Chanel Khoury, Anselm Reyle, Vickie Vainionpää, and Jack Warne, delves into emergent artistic processes, from Augmented Reality to collaborative AI and simulated asteroid mining. It offers insights into the diverse and imaginative techniques these artists employ, such as Bray’s collaboration with AI to meld countless versions of his original hand-drawn sketches processed by a generative engine, and Vainionpää’s use of code in her oil paintings as a medium to create infinite relationships between diameter, curve, and entanglement. Reyle’s works are characterized by the use of various found objects that have been removed from their original function, altered visually, and recontextualized. Remnants of consumer society, discarded materials, symbols of urbanity, and industrial change play a central role in his oeuvre.

Sparks is on view through June 1st at Future Gallery, Schöneberger Ufer 59, 10785 Berlin.
