ETERNO OPEN LAB

‍

Art, AI, and technology, open to everyone.

What does it mean to build an artistic practice with digital tools? How do we live with digital art? Who collects it, and what changes when AI enters the creative process?

ETERNO OPEN LAB is a one-day programme bringing together artists, curators, collectors and curious audiences to explore these questions through talks, a guided tour and a hands-on workshop.

Whether you already work with digital art and technology or are simply curious about where art might go next, the programme is designed as an open space to learn, ask questions, experiment and exchange ideas.

No previous knowledge required, just curiosity.
