A Show From Michael Blacksmith

PROPAGANDA: BEWARE

Let me take you to the future, is the creative process, nay ART itself, going to be destroyed by AI, cut down in its prime., ART IS DEAD, or is it? Or, are we witnessing the birth of a new palette, and vibrant machine based resource, waiting to deliver us, the artist, the ultimate muse - just add batteries.

I wanted this show to express AI and its potential effect on humanity, both literally as written and  in the creative process. This image of each poster was created by an AI engine and then typeset and designed  on a Mac contrasting the production process of 1930 and 1940's posters. In its entirety the show is made up of 16 prints. Each poster has a sister poster from the WW2 era images below.

The overarching narrative of the show is the evolution not only of art and its creation but the evolution of humankind's creations. Are we about to stand on the precipice of  potential elimination or the dawn of a chip driven servant?
