AI Baroque Painting
“AI Baroque Painting” by Ouchhh is inspired by some of the greatest painters of the baroque era, a period of excellence that produced one of the most important and famous artworks in the history of Western art. It is the result of processing a collection of baroque paintings with Artificial Intelligence and Generative adversarial network (GAN) algorithms.
A total of 8379 famous paintings from over 157 European artists, including some of the biggest names like Peter Paul Rubens, Caravaggio, Diego Velázquez, Rembrandt van Rijn and Nicolas Poussin, were fed into AI models. With the help of a customized tSNE algorithm, which is a built-in Python Coding language, the AI was then trained to learn the chiaroscuro technique, a well known trait of Baroque art that refers to the interplay between light and dark, often used in paintings of dimly lit scenes to produce a very high-contrast, dramatic atmosphere. The algorithm serves as a baroque “operative function” or “trait” which endlessly produces curvy folds, then twisting, turning, and pushing them into infinity, fold over fold, one on the other, creating a base for the data painting process.
Strong chiaroscuro became a popular effect during the sixteen century in Baroque art. Chiaroscuro effect leads the eye to confuse different qualities of space and surface. The distribution and contrast of light and shade using chiaroscuro anticipates this process of becoming, capturing the essence of the “Fold”, a unifying concept in Gilles Deleuze’s study of Leibniz and the Baroque (1988).
Through “data as a paint, algorithm as a brush”, a body of infinite folds and surfaces weaving through a 100-year period of art history is made visible. A highly dimensional universe evoking the baroque elements of exuberance, stateliness and dynamism takes full form.
