Scoletta dell’Arte: Digital Reform exhibition explores AI at Venice Biennale

During the 2024 Venice Biennale, the exhibition "Scoletta dell’Arte: Digital Reform" at the Scoletta dell’Arte dei Tiraoro e Battioro examines artificial intelligence in art. Curated by Antonio Geusa and presented by TAEX, the show runs until September 15. It features interactive works by Andrea Meregalli, Francesco D’Isa, MAOTIK, Funa Ye, Accurat, and Shu Lea Cheang, alongside historical pieces by Salvator Rosa, Jean Géricault, John Constable, and Malevich. The exhibition adopts a playful, didactic approach, including a card game critiquing ChatGPT and a TTI app called Vera. Geusa draws parallels between historical study practices and machine learning. The show is noted as the only AI-focused exhibition at the Biennale.
