Tobias Gutmann // Solo exhibition

In “I can do that too!” Says the AI, Swiss artist Tobias Gutmann presents the public with Sai Bot: an artificial intelligence robot who produces portraits in real time, using the thousands of drawings the artist has created since 2012 in the scope of his Face-o-mat performance as a source. From these data, Sai Bot assimilates and learns the formal language and repertoire of the portraits, thus creating their own combinations.

The portraits embody the works of the exhibition, and the creation process of each one is experiential and intimate. The visitor who desires to be drawn by Sai Bot sits down in front of them and enters into a personal interaction with the robot, who speaks, asking questions while they process traces and characteristics, interpreting them in abstract form. The result is subtle, minimal and unique.
