About the Artist

Pindar Van Arman

Pindar Van Arman (b.1974) is an AI artist based in the United States who explores creativity with his painting robots. His first machines made in 2005, were plotter printers that simply dipped a brush in paint and dragged it from point to point. His most recent robotic arms, however, use feedback loops, artificial intelligence, and deep learning to operate at the exploratory edge of computational creativity. In a recent review of AI-generated art, famed New York City art critic Jerry Saltz singled out one of Van Arman’s paintings saying, “This is the first image I’ve seen that doesn’t look like a computer made it.”
