Fine-arts auction house Christie’s is set to launch “Augmented Intelligence,” its first auction devoted entirely to art created with the help of AI, Report informs via Forbes.
The auction will run from Feb. 20 through March 5, with a concurrent exhibit at Christie’s Rockefeller Center galleries in New York. “Augmented Intelligence” will feature more than 20 lots — from digital art to sculptures, acrylic and oil paintings and inks on paper.
“AI technology is undoubtedly the future, and its connection to creativity will become increasingly important,” Nicole Sales Giles, Christie’s director of digital art, said in a Friday statement announcing the auction. Christie’s has sold AI art before but hasn’t focused an entire auction on it until now.
