The AI Art Magazine Issue 2: Critical Perspectives on AI and Art

The second issue of The AI Art Magazine, edited by Christoph Grünberger and titled Critical Intelligence, has been published by polardots.studio GmbH in Germany, 2025. The magazine, ISSN 29444667, is in English and spans 140 pages. Rather than merely showcasing AI-generated imagery, this issue adopts a critical perspective, featuring a selection of artists and writers who explore controversial aspects of AI art. A central theme is the power embedded in generated images and the ambiguity AI introduces into perception. Artists reflect on the visual spaces they create, inviting viewers to inhabit them temporarily. The issue raises unresolved ecological and ethical questions surrounding AI technologies.
