NEURAL STUDIES: BLOCK WARTS is part of the digital group show THE ARTIST IS ONLINE. Digital Paintings and Sculpture in a Virtual World on view at KÖNIG GALERIE in Decentraland (36.100).

This work from Klingemann’s NEURAL STUDIES series combines found imagery with neural transhancement process using a model trained on Hieronymous Bosch's work. The AI becomes his latent-scope that allows him to look at the world differently and see things that are hidden to the naked eye.

Mario Klingemann is an artist who uses algorithms and artificial intelligence to create and investigate systems. He is particularly interested in human perception of art and creativity, researching methods in which machines can augment or emulate these processes. Thus his artistic research spans a wide range of areas like generative art, cybernetic aesthetics, information theory, feedback loops, pattern recognition, emergent behaviors, neural networks, cultural data or storytelling.

He was winner of the Lumen Prize Gold 2018, received an honorary mention at the Prix Ars Electronica 2020 and won the British Library Labs Creative Award 2015. He was artist in residence at the Google Arts & Culture Lab and has been recognized as a pioneer in the field of AI art. His work has been featured in art publications as well as academic research and has been shown in international museums and at art festivals like Ars Electronica, the Centre Pompidou, ZKM, the Barbican, the Ermitage, the Photographers' Gallery, Colección Solo Madrid, Nature Morte Gallery New Delhi, Residenzschloss Dresden, Grey Area Foundation, Mediacity Biennale Seoul, the British Library and MoMA.
