Curator Anders Härm Leads Tour of AI-Themed Exhibition 'Triumph of Galatea'

exhibition · 2026-08-05

Curator Anders Härm will lead a curator's tour of the exhibition 'Triumph of Galatea: Art in the Age of Artificial Intelligence' as part of its finissage. The international group exhibition, titled after the myth of Pygmalion, explores the impact of new technologies on human experience, culture, and society. The myth of Pygmalion, which embodies the desire to bring a lifeless creation to life, is now relevant as AI and biomechanical humanoids advance. The exhibition raises questions about human evolution, self-perception, and the duet-like relationship between humans and AI. It highlights how AI, augmented reality, GPS trackers, Google Maps, and translation bots have become integral to daily life, often unnoticed until absent. Robots now control aspects of human identity, and the extent of human control is uncertain. The event is part of the finissage of the exhibition. Photo credit: Aron Urb.
