2020 Daejeon Biennale brings together works that harness advanced AI technologies in pursuit of an expanded field of artistic expression. This exhibition strives to foster discussion about the attitudes of current artistic practice in these new media environments, on how humans are interacting with technology. Presented works seek out possible common spaces between art, which explores things that deviate from economic logic, and AI technology, which is always concerned with social utility. Ultimately, the exhibition will examine the areas where the two overlap.

2020 Daejeon Biennale brings together works that harness advanced AI technologies in pursuit of an expanded field of artistic expression. A range of displayed works, in which elements of art and science exist in fusion, will present multidisciplinary approaches to AI, as they take their sources from various fields such as literature, cinema, data science, etc. Simultaneously, the body of work will be a reminder of both the functions and malfunctions of deep-learning algorithms, examining the double-edged sword of AI technologies. Works focused on integrated cognition through AI technology suggest possibilities for extending human sensation through technology. Even heading towards the 22nd century, we don’t yet have a clear formulation or definition of the human mind. Current AI technologies centre around human visual perception and hearing, and there is a need to develop higher cognition technologies for linguistic and circumstantial judgments as distinguished from those of animals. In this respect, the theme of AI technology is not about discussing the difference between humans and AI or suggesting AI as a replacement for the artist. This exhibition strives to foster discussion about the attitudes of current artistic practice in these new media environments, on how humans are interacting with technology. Presented works seek out possible common spaces between art, which explores things that deviate from economic logic, and AI technology, which is always concerned with social utility. Ultimately, the exhibition will examine the areas where the two overlap.
