BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé art cars created using AI

Having had a long and fruitful history with its Art Cars, BMW knows a thing or two about using its vehicles as rolling canvases. The company is debuting three new cars at this year’s Frieze New York art fair as part of the 50th anniversary of BMW’s cultural engagement programme – but rather than being painted by a renown international artist, these 8 Series Gran Coupés have instead been worked on by a computer.
Well, sort of. As its name suggests, “The Ultimate AI Masterpiece” harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to make art. The project is the brainchild of Goodby, Silverstein & Partners director of creative technology Nathan Shipley and art collector and ArtDrunk founder Gary Yeh, who utilised Nvidia’s open source StyleGAN artificial intelligence software to fashion the colourful works you see here.

In yet another sign that our high-culture scene is finally rousing from its year-long COVID slumber, the ninth edition of Frieze New York, one of the world s largest and glitziest art fairs, opened on Wednesday at The Shed in Hudson Yards.
But it s not quite the Frieze you might remember.

There are less than a third of the usual number of exhibitors on hand for this year s pandemic iteration about 60, down from nearly 200 in years past and the Frieze s famously stellar people-watching possibilities are diminished by timed entries and capacity restrictions.
The food and bar scene has been sequestered to The Shed s skylight lounge on the top floor, where you can get free snacks and/or $33 flutes of champagne.
