Stephanie Dinkins Displays AI-Infused Artwork at Guggenheim Event

Published January 29, 2024

In a renowned celebration of artistic innovation, Stephanie Dinkins, heralded as one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in AI, showcased a series of her AI-infused artworks at the 'Late Shift' event, set against the high-definition canvas of LG OLED screens at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. This exhibition marked a significant milestone for Dinkins, as she holds the title of the first winner of the 2023 LG Guggenheim Award.

An Inaugural Achievement

Having received recognition for integrating AI into her creative projects, Dinkins is at the forefront of a movement striving to make AI reflective of the entirety of human experience. Her artwork questions how AI can become a tool for inclusivity rather than perpetuating the dominance of majority perspectives. The LG Guggenheim Award underscores her pioneering role in the intersection of technology and art.

Art and AI Merging on OLED

Dinkins' displayed works, including 'Not the Only One Avatar image 2023 brain (N'TOO)', 'The Stories We Tell Our Machines', and 'WisdomBot', exemplify her ongoing efforts to weave rich social values into the fabric of AI development. The interactive pieces feature LG OLED technology, provoking thoughts and inspiring dialogue on our influence over AI and its understanding of our world.

Fostering a Tech-Art Synergy

The 'LG Guggenheim Art and Technology Initiative' continues to drive the fusion of art and tech, with Dinkins' exhibition arriving at a pivotal time. LG Electronics advocates for 'Affectionate Intelligence'—its 2024 focus—and champions artists like Dinkins who test the frontiers of technological artistry. The collaboration between LG and the Guggenheim Museum seeks to research, honor, and promote artists revolutionizing art through technology.

Data Gifts and Audience Interaction

During the event, the audience engaged with AI, providing 'Data Gifts', a term used by Dinkins to describe the individual contributions that enhance AI learning. LG Electronics continues to sponsor the creation of art that stretches the imagination and pushes technological boundaries, according to Noam Segal, LG Electronics Associate Curator.

The Vision of LG OLED ART

LG OLED ART stands as a testimony to the dynamic interface between futuristic technology and artistic expression, enabling artists to redefine the palette of traditional art through the vibrant and precise display of LG OLED. As the initiative celebrates collaborations with numerous renowned artists, it aims to shape the future landscape of digital art.
