In the space of halls we presented the paintings of Beksinski, one of the most important representatives of contemporary art in Poland, set in motion and put through the filter of modern technologies.
The BEKSINSKI.LIVE 2024 project is an artistic endeavor and an experiment that bridges tradition with modernity.
Zdzislaw Beksinski was one of the most important representatives of contemporary art in Poland, a great experimenter reaching for various means of expression, and constantly searching. This openness translated into the form and idea of Beksinski.Live – a project that combines artists, arts, interpretations & sensitivities.
We aimed to innovate the intersection of art and technology by leveraging AI to create a transformative cultural experience and showcase how AI can revolutionize the perception of visual art.
Participants had to leave the event with a newfound appreciation for Beksinski’s art and an understanding of AI’s transformative capabilities in the arts. To make it more human-friendly, as a new helpful tool, not the stranger, but rather someone who helps in the explorations of AI in art & shift perceptions or an integral part of the creative process.
By integrating AI we’ve decided to continue the master’s mission of exploring. Reaching for new ways to generate dynamic, real-time visualizations and interactions on over 100 paintings and sketches, we sought to push the boundaries of traditional art exhibitions, demonstrate the potential of AI as a creative tool, and make it possible to process Beksinski’s works, obtaining intriguing, dynamic images, to transform them into another dimension.
We’ve used AI to give the Master a voice he didn’t have before. Guests had the only opportunity to hear the sentences from Beksinski, which had been written but never said or recorded. Using AI, we made it possible to listen to a Master voiceover about the main questions of music, art, and new tech.
Furthermore, we’ve prepared an arranged set list of tracks, dedicated to the 90-minute show, made by a well-known composer & producer with lyrics support from a Polish vocalist.
