From 5 January to 20 April 2024, Ann Massal is developing a research project at the crossroads between creative writing, photography and artificial intelligence. As a creative thinker & photographer, she decided to shoot questions at an artificial intelligence—in this instance about 25 Photographers from the MEP Collection who made history. This compilation of chats with names such as Larry Clark, Coco Capitan, Ralph Gibson, Rineke Dijkstra ou encore Irving Penn gives us a deep dive into the world of photography.
Questions raised range from the art market to the meaning of the photographic medium to more philosophical endeavors, and will result in a book in collaboration with JBE Books. In part a philosophical essay, in part an art critic of one of the most emblematic photographic collection in the world, this photobook UFO sheds a new light on the world of photography as seen through the lens of AI language.
