Art Unquoted

What if AI could generate 77 different versions of one person? Artist Ilit Azoulay did exactly that. Each AI actress performs Mary Stuck at a different age. Each one is different. Each one is real.

Referring to the re-opening of Villa Stuck in Munich and her exhibition "No Single View," Azoulay uses AI as a tool for the first time to explore identity, memory, and the impossibility of knowing anyone completely.

 "To shift to a slower gear and tune in to the frequencies of the minor keys."

In Part 3, we explore the historical and contemporary dimensions of "In Minor Keys". From Giotto's 14th-century Cappella degli Scrovegni to Pierre Huyghe's Liminal at Punta della Dogana, we trace how contemplative, site-specific practice has always demanded slowness. A conversation about finding meaning in Venice's layered past and present.
