Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere. How do artists and art history scholars understand and anticipate the impact this technology has on creativity and artistic creation?
The NIU School of Art and Design is hosting a symposium, which can be attended free of charge in person or via Zoom, that will feature six art scholars from around the country joining Jessica Labatte, director of the NIU School of Art and Design and associate professor and head of the photography division, to discuss AI’s impacts on visual art.
In this symposium, artists and scholars will present multiple perspectives on the new technology, provoking conversations about the potential opportunities and potential liabilities of this tool.
AI in Visual Arts Symposium will be held Friday, April 12 from 9 a.m. to noon in room 103 of Jack Arends Hall, the Visual Arts Building on the main NIU campus. Those wishing to attend virtually can sign up at go.niu.edu/ai-art-symposium. The symposium and free and open to the public.
