The Colorado Photographic Arts Center challenges the traditional photography world with its new exhibition, “History Reimagined,” featuring artists who use artificial intelligence to create images. While some photographers see AI as a threat to their livelihood, CPAC embraces the technological innovations that are transforming the medium. The exhibition showcases the work of artists like Todd Dobbs, Laura Rautjoki, and Phillip Toledano, who use AI to explore themes of politics, media, and personal identity.
The exhibition raises questions about whether creating visual images through AI is an extension of photography or a new art form altogether. Artists like Rautjoki challenge gender biases in art and media by prompting AI to create images based on a female perspective. Toledano’s work rewrites history by creating fantastical images of mid-20th century New York City, while Dobbs critiques AI’s limitations in reflecting cultural norms.
While AI’s capabilities may be feared, the exhibition suggests that it can also inspire thoughtfulness and creativity. CPAC’s curator, Samantha Johnston, has curated a groundbreaking exhibition that challenges traditional notions of photography and pushes the boundaries of what is considered art. “History Reimagined” is on display at CPAC until April 12th and offers a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of technology and art.
