Description
"The artwork featured on our cover by Kevin Abosch is part of the series Ethical Compositions and Ethical Objects. It showcases indistinct materials—fabrics, plastics, and metals—rendered in a way that feels almost like abstract art. However, with this piece, Irish artist Kevin Abosch (b. 1969) addresses the complex themes surrounding artificial intelligence, ethics, and the indiscriminate use of photography generated by digital processes. Kevin Abosch is, in fact, a pioneer of digital art and one of its most recognized figures. His works span sculpture, installations, artificial intelligence, video, and, of course, photography. It is no coincidence that Abosch gained significant fame for selling a photograph of a potato for one million dollars. Our cover also exists as a digital artwork, available to those who purchase a special collector’s edition, equipped with a QR code, starting Tuesday. Abosch’s work is ultimately geared toward exploring the biases and dilemmas surrounding artificial intelligence. He navigates virtual spaces, creates multifaceted works, and fosters a dialogue on the relationship between reality and fiction in the era of tokens and blockchain." - Gianluigi Colin, Art director at Corriere della Sera
