The AI Anarchies Book sheds light on the debate surrounding AI and ethics from an artistic and scientific perspective and explores new approaches to the topic. As documentation, reflection and toolbox, the publication conveys knowledge and background information on the “AI Anarchies Autumn Academy” 2023 and the artistic projects that were created as part of the programme in essays, interviews, picture galleries and recipes.

The 150th anniversary of the Serpentara provided the occasion for a positioning. In 1873, artists saved the oak grove in Olevano Romano, Italy, from being cut down. Today, “Villa Serpentara” is a residence for Akademie scholars. In 15 contributions, Serpentara artists, contemporary witnesses and art historians explore the myth, visual motif and stories surrounding the famous oak grove and offer new approaches to its history.

The JUNGE AKADEMIE, VISIT, the artist-in-residence programme of the E.ON Stiftung and E-WERK Luckenwalde are cooperating to offer four fully funded fellowships once again in 2025 for international artists, to fund projects operating at the intersection of art, science and ecology, concerning the topic of the human machine.

The exhibition “Broken Machines & Wild Imaginings” presents ten new installations by fellows of the JUNGE AKADEMIE, whose artistic research examines artificial intelligence. The focus is on speculative and experimental practices that articulate and question how power and ethics are dealt with in the context of AI. In response to the fragile reality of machines and their extractivist logic, algorithmic violence and techno-solutionism, the artists create poetic worlds and playful concepts and strategies of repair. They develop alternative paradigms, historical narratives and imaginings/imaginaries of technologies and a digital life beyond the systems of Big Tech.

The 2022 fellows for the Akademie der Künste’s Human-Machine Programme have been selected. The jury recieved more than 170 applications and chose the artist and designer Petja Ivanova.

JUNGE AKADEMIE launches programme "AI Anarchies" on the topic of Artificial Intelligence & Ethics: Fellows are selected and applications are now open for the Autumn School study group.

For the third time, the JUNGE AKADEMIE of the Akademie der Künste, in partnership with VISIT, the artist-in-residence programme of the E.ON foundation, will award one fellowship per year to fund international projects dealing with the topic “Human-Machine”.

What Matters is both the question and statement of this year’s work presentation by the JUNGE AKADEMIE, the international artist-in-residence programme of the Akademie der Künste.

The JUNGE AKADEMIE of Akademie der Künste, Berlin, will support six artists in developing new works on the topic “Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Ethics” during a six-month residency program at ZK/U in Berlin titled “AI Anarchies”.
