Wo Pferd war soll KI werden Eine Ausstellung von NIE WIEDER EIGENTUM

In the organizer's words:

An exhibition by NIE WIEDER EIGENTUM
with works by Mario Bergmann, Callaz, Valentina Primavera, Annett Hardegen, Luce deLire.

Horses and artificial intelligence (AI) are at different ends of the spectrum of technological progress - in this exhibition we bring them together to question AI's limits and potentials.

Why horses? One paradigm is an unavoidable point of reference. It is the way in which we make (coherent) sense of reality. A paradigm is an approach to the world - and without contrast, the paradigm is the world. Paradigms are therefore characterized by their immersion. The paradigm always seems inescapable, unavoidable and necessary. This means that the paradigm can only be explored from its edges. It therefore needs to be contrasted with other paradigms. This is why we are exploring artificial intelligence through the horse in this exhibition.

As historical companions of mankind - once irreplaceable, today marginalized - they are suitable as metaphorical observers of technological change. Horses have shaped human life for thousands of years - both as farm animals and military equipment and as luxury goods. After the Second World War at the latest, however, the time of horses had come to an end: Motorized vehicles had long since overtaken them. Today, sport horses are the remnants of a completely different world. They are therefore particularly suitable as the marginal observers of the new paradigm shift from digital media to artificial intelligence.
