> DESCRIPTION
Harold Cohen, former director of the Center for Research in Computing and the Arts (CRCA) at the University of California, San Diego, is one of the few artists ever to become deeply involved in artificial intelligence as a process for art-making. He is the author of the celebrated AARON program—the first computer program in human history to paint original art—an ongoing research effort in autonomous machine intelligence, which began when he was a visiting scholar at Stanford University’s Artificial Intelligence Lab in 1973. In more than two decades, AARON has produced many thousands of drawings and paintings.

This exhibition showcases the latest developments in Cohen’s research, presenting several stunningly colored, large-scale prints and a digital projection of AARON’s continually changing palette and composition.
