Transizioni: Nine Artists Explore Hybrid Photography at Viasaterna, Milan

Curated by Mauro Zanchi, the group exhibition 'Transizioni' at Viasaterna in Milan brings together nine contemporary artists who hybridize the photographic medium with technology. The show examines the evolving relationship between human creativity and artificial intelligence, arguing that AI should be used collaboratively rather than avoided. Artists include Alessandro Calabrese, who uses AI to speculate on missing parts of archaeological sculptures; Alessandro Sambini and Alberto Sinigaglia, who focus on the hardware producing images (Sambini with industrial CRT monitors bearing latent images, Sinigaglia with sculptures highlighting the environmental cost of pixels); Camilla Gurgone, who inverts the logic of the photographic instant with her 'Velum' series using thermal paper to extend algorithmic time; and Luca Massaro, who collects images of labels and signs, transforming them into painterly and sculptural works. The exhibition runs at Viasaterna in Milan.
