GM, Gen Art Lovers!☀️ Surely you've heard of Warhol's Campbell's Soup paintings. They may seem like fun, insignificant artworks, but what makes them special enough to hang in the MoMA? What have they contributed to Art History? Spoiler: there’s much concept behind them.

GM, Gen Art Lovers! ☀️ I’m often asked about Giacometti’s enigmatic sculptures, those skeletal figures that seem unfinished and weird. Here’s a brief 🧵 to help you understand why they intentionally look that way. Spoiler: the reason is deeply conceptual.

GM, Gen Art Lovers! 🔆 As a Fine Arts Professor, my students often ask me about the relevance of certain contemporary artists. Today, I bring you a short thread to help you appreciate the work of Damien Hirst, focusing on understanding his first major piece. Let’s dive in!

Inspiration always amazes me. Taking some days off out of the studio, in the Mediterranean Sea, and “boom!”, the solution to my current algorithm came from nowhere. I had to quickly write the code down before it vanishes again.

Lost and found in my hard drive : 2013, at the Lumen Prize Exhibition (London). This is the artwork with which I was chosen as finalist of the Lumen Prize 2013. (You can see in the reflection how crowded the exhibition was). Old days... 🙂 @lumenprize @lumenstudios

Tomorrow, Dr. Esther Moñivas will give a lecture at the amazing International Congress "Towards and Automatic Art" (Lisbon) about my work as generative artist. It is fantastic to finally see genart vindicated in academic contexts. We all are making history together! 💪 💛

MIT's Leonardo journal on Catharsis: "Dario Lanza's Catharsis series introduces an evolving algorithm of non geometric, digital art emphasizing improvisation over randomness [...]. It is in this interstitial space between control and chaos where hope finds its home." Hope... That's beautiful...❤️ Thank you 🙏

I just received a printed version of Leonardo journal (published by MIT) in which my article on "Catharsis" and the concept of long-structure has been published. Even "Catharsis" has been selected to be the cover of the issue!! Special mention to Erick Calderon and @tylerxhobbs, whose work I cite on the research.
