Evolution

Evolution of the art after coronavirus

Creators_Either they could go all the way via AI creation or they can go all the way to back ot the roots in an artisanal way. The continuous perfectioning of the AI make easy to prey on archives of old lore and to recycle and regurgitate them ad infinitum  without human intervention.

But like in sports and games, the fun is making things yourself, and that is a point humans were eager to enjoy in the middle of isolation. The autarquic mindset that take hold might favour DIY practices and examples.

Craft as skill---------DIY----------self sustainable economy---------nostalgic

Ai by its side,as of now, produce content either mathematically (geometric operations, etc) or figurative (using archives) can develop the mentality of curation as an aesthetic act. This will be a prolongation of this stream during the XX century.

Abstract art favoured this , placing most of the interpretation in the curator interpreter .

Otrosi about AI an t the curatorial nous, the machine larning spectrum gives space to curatorial nous, to be curators above all, where there is no need to create but to collect and judge.

The point with this curator as artist point is that can be  linked with the patristic and scholastic approach in the senses that is not linked to the art as a practice of a craft, but to the exercise of harvesting over a corpus done in time gone, this posmodern meta reference that goes and goes on, not only in idea, but in form.

Patristic-----Scholastic----------Curatorial------conceptual/minimal--------AI/ML--------new normal post quarantine?

The model of the object of contemplation_museums work on the idea of the aura of an object that allows you to access content via aesthetic appreciation. the galleries are a private, entrepreneurial offshot of that model, which in turn led to the art fairs. Of the three, the latter is the more affected, as it could be compared to a concert or festival, a massive gathering from people everywhere, difficult to trace and control. Will the idea of contemplating an object with your bare eyes as a irreplaceable experience survive the pandemic?. The consume of objects will shrink probably, as smaller collectors will move their resources to other priorities. However, big private collecotrs, in the isolation of their places, would make their collections their solace?. This would be not different from old times, where most of the art never saw the light of the general public contemplations, sleeping trough the cabinet and studiolos of the rich and powerful.  This will leave a space in the collective imaginary.
