INFLATABLE METAVERSAL FRIENDS by Anne Spalter delves into our relationship with technology, particularly the screens that dominate much of our modern lives. We spend countless hours interacting with digital devices, creating and consuming content, and forging identities within the virtual realm. This relationship is mirrored in this series of metaversal avatars, which reflect our digital personas back to us.

ANNE SPALTER & NATHANIEL STERN | FUTURE MYTHOLOGIES

When exploring new territories, it is often helpful to not walk alone. That’s probably why we see more and more artists collaborating on projects in the NFT space. Experiences can be shared and expertise combined. When Anne Spalter and Nathaniel Stern met, they both knew it was meant to be. Their encounter influenced their artistic practice and impacted their work with AI. Spalter and Stern have been collaborating ever since, exploring video, poetry, and AI. 

In conversation with Anika Meier, the artists discuss their practice, working together, and the present and future of AI. And, of course, the conversation was also about Spalter Digital, one of the world’s largest private collections of early computer art, comprising over 1000 works from the second half of the twentieth century.

ANNE SPALTER & NATHANIEL STERN: AT THE FOREFRONT OF AI

Anne Spalter knows how to help herself. When she was looking for a book about the pioneers of early computer art, she couldn't find an in-depth publication, so she wrote it herself. It took her six years to finish the book. Spalter took the time to speak with artists like Herbert W. Franke, Frieder Nake, and Manfred Mohr. When she first heard about artists working with technology, she wasn't convinced; she thought computers were for science. Her initial reaction helps her understand the sometimes negative responses to artists working with the latest technologies. Spalters herself became an artist interested in creating art with new technologies; she is a pioneer in the field of AI and, together with Michael Spalter, stewards one of the world's largest private collections of early computer art.

EXHIBITION

The 3D-printed sculpture, MYSTIC MINER, by Anne Spalter is a fusion of art and technology that portrays a fox, an emblem of resourcefulness and curiosity, sitting atop a translucent gemstone. This composition encapsulates the essence of the eternal quest for value, where the tangible and the intangible interweave in an intricate dance of form and symbolism.
The fox, a miner for diamonds, embodies the spirit of exploration and aspiration. Its presence is a testament to the relentless pursuit of material wealth, as it meticulously extracts gems from the depths of the earth. The fox serves as a symbol of humanity's enduring drive to unearth the treasures that lie hidden beneath the surface of existence.
The translucent gemstone beneath the fox symbolizes the ethereal nature of value and the multifaceted facets of perception. It is a reminder that worth is not solely confined to the physical realm but is equally influenced by our capacity to appreciate and interpret the world around us. The sculpture captures the intersection of the tangible gemstone and the intangible essence of human imagination.
The 3D form of this sculpture was extracted from one of the show’s paintings using AI, bridging the realms of artistic expression and technological innovation. This fusion reflects the evolving relationship between art and technology.
