☆ A.I. Excels at Making Bad Art. Can an Artist Teach It to Create Something Good?
  + stars: | 2023-09-22 | by ( Zachary Small | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +15 min
“Is It Good Enough to Fool My Gallerist?” David Salle, one of America’s most thoughtful painters, hoped an A.I. “We are sending the machine to art school,” Salle quipped, before expounding on the principles of light, shadow, depth and volume that good painting requires. Safe to say that nobody would mistake this image for a Salle painting. Salle’s style has changed over the years, which made capturing his essence a little more challenging for an algorithm. Put through the blender of a machine, Salle’s art becomes a remix: a pastiche of pastiches.

REUTERS/Juan MedinaMADRID, June 29 (Reuters) - Madrid opened a long-awaited multi-million-dollar gallery on Thursday, bringing hundreds of masterpieces from the royal collection, including works by Caravaggio, Velazquez and Goya, under one roof. A third of the exhibits - themselves just a fraction of the total collection - will continue to move between those institutions, officials said. "The museum is born with the vocation of being a cultural and tourist key point in Madrid, Spain and Europe," Ana de la Cueva, head of National Heritage, the state-owned organization that manages the royal collection, told reporters. She said officials hoped the museum would persuade tourists to extend their stay in the city by at least one day, boosting revenues.

June 24 (Reuters) - Italian engineering group Maire Tecnimont (MTCM.MI) said it has won two contracts valued at about $2 billion related to a petrochemical expansion at the SATORP refinery in Saudi Arabia. SATORP refinery, located in Jubail, Saudi Arabia, is a joint venture between Saudi Aramco and French company TotalEnergies. The engineering, procurement and construction lump sum turnkey contracts will drive the Italian oil services group's revenues growth for 2023 and beyond, the company said in a statement on Saturday. The contracts will bring its year-to-date order intake to over 2.6 billion euros ($2.83 billion), it added. Earlier on Saturday, Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Aramco) (2222.SE) and TotalEnergies (TTEF.PA) signed an $11 billion contract to start building a new petrochemicals complex in Saudi Arabia.

☆ Climate activists dye iconic Italian fountain water black

“Difficult years await us but if we don’t reach zero emissions immediately they will be terrible.”Photos showed activists, wearing orange vests, standing waist deep in the fountain. They unfolded orange banners bearing the words in Italian: “Our future is as black as this water” as crowds of onlookers snapped pictures. It is believed to be the same group of climate activists that led protests at other Italian historical sites including the Barcaccia fountain at the base of the Spanish Steps in central Rome, where they poured black liquid into the fountain on April 1. Similar protests saw activists glue themselves to Italian art masterpieces in locations like the Vatican museums and Uffizi galleries in Florence. ‘Iconic’ work of artLocated in the famed Piazza Navona square in Rome, the Fiumi Fountain was designed by Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1651.
☆ Pope Benedict Receives a Quiet Farewell From Mourners
  + stars: | 2023-01-04 | by ( Francis X. Rocca | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
VATICAN CITY—The body of Pope Benedict XVI lay before the main altar of St. Peter’s Basilica on Monday, his head resting on a pair of velvet cushions, his face waxy and ashen, with rosary beads entwined through his folded hands. The twisting baroque columns of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s altar canopy towered behind. The late pope, who retired in 2013, wore a bishop’s miter but, unlike his predecessor, St. John Paul II , when he lay in state, not the woolen cloak around his neck signifying papal office.

Faithful and curious, the public strode briskly up the center aisle to pass by the bier after waiting in a line that by midmorning snaked around St. Peter’s Square. Filippo Tuccio, 35, came from Venice on an overnight train to view Benedict’s body. “I wanted to pay homage to Benedict because he had a key role in my life and my education. This is why I wanted to say goodbye today.”Public viewing lasts for 10 hours on Monday in St. Peter’s Basilica. Twelve hours of viewing are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday before Thursday morning’s funeral, which will be led by Pope Francis, at St. Peter’s Square.
