Georgian digital artist Nika Qutelia will feature in a display of AI-generated work at London's recently launched Shoreditch Arts Club this week, joining a roster of creatives in an event marking a new online AI art platform.
The Exactly.ai Exhibition will look to promote the platform of the same name, which organisers say aims to support a form of AI art creation that involves respect for authorship, on the backdrop of artist concerns about AI-generated imagery created from human-created work without credits to the original authors.
While the works created for the exhibition have been produced by AI using the original style of featured artists, the models created in the process "belong to artists, and the artists can also sell their work via the platform", the hosts noted.
The digital works based on creations by Qutelia and his fellow artists will be presented using large projectors at the Club that launched in March.
The Georgian artist was featured in his first personal display in Tbilisi in October, when his works were on show at the city's The Why Not Gallery. Working with technology like computer-generated imagery and non-fungible tokens, his practices have been described by the Tbilisi gallery as "creating simulations of different textures and materials".
Qutelia himself has described his creative process as expressions of "[p]hantom bridges between the past and the future", and has also been involved in collaborations with music artists and labels as well as fashion designers and brands.
Opening on Friday, the Shoreditch venue display will receive visitors between 6pm-10pm.
