About
FAKE ART
This exhibit is a quest towards the question:
How much human involvement is required in the creative process for it to be considered "REAL ART"?
Is it unique? it got any soul in it? are those visual pieces considered art, or are they just products: superficial digital interpretation, a mimicry of the human spirit?
You Decide.
I create FAKE ART as a way to express myself.
I am neither an artist nor a philosopher.
or am i?
The exhibition provides a visual and philosophical experience, on the brink of the artificial intelligence (Ai) revolution. This is the beginning of a new revolution in communication-art-product relations.
To the eternal question "what is art" (and what is not art) a question was added:
How much human involvement is required in the creative process for it to be considered "real art" and not "FAKE ART"?
What defines art? The creative process or the experience it evokes in the audience? Can a visual created from full computer automation also be considered art? Can the new art be like Schrödinger's cat? Both non-art and art at the same time? If the machine automatically produces a million images a day but no human ever views them, are they art? And if a person sits and looks at them and chooses the best one and hangs it in the center of the museum - will it then be considered art?
Could it be that the human gaze is enough to turn fake art into real art?
How much human and how much machine?
At this stage it is still a matter of cooperation between human and machine.
I created all the works in this exhibition using midjourney, with descriptions that I formulated and refined according to my ideas. But it was the machine that turned my words into visuals.
I chose from among the multitude of results generated by Ai. But it was the AI that provided the choice.
It is the Ai that processed the product, using my words and my vision as a human being until I am satisfied with the result.
Naming the works was from my full interpretation as the human creator.
I came up with the names of the pieces myself, regardless of the dry prompt that the machine received from me at the beginning of the process.
I have no answers to these questions and I have a feeling that in a few years they will sound naive.
Either way, I create pictures from words.
Each work will be sold only once and the buyer will have a one-off and unique piece of FAKE ART.
