Get ready to embark on an artistic journey like no other! Partnering with LG Electronics (LG), Frieze London 2023 is set to unveil a mesmerizing masterpiece. Allow us to introduce you to "Jardins d'Été," a dazzling, algorithmically generated experience created by the visionary Italian artist Quayola, hailing from the vibrant art scene in London.

At its heart, this masterpiece is a brilliant homage to French Impressionism, paying its respects to the late works of the legendary Claude Monet. But it's not just about honoring the past; it's about pushing the boundaries of what's possible when art and technology come together in harmony.

"Jardins d'Été" immerses you in a world of creativity, bringing to life the enchanting nocturnal gardens at Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire, France. The artist Quayola took inspiration from the intricate dance of floral formations swaying in the breeze, turning this natural beauty into a dataset to create new, stunning computational paintings.

Hardware, Art fairs and algorithms

This series of videos and prints takes you on an exploration of how we observe and synthesize nature. In the 19th century, these very questions propelled artists towards total abstraction. Now, Quayola is continuing this legacy but with a contemporary twist.

The result is a mesmerizing blend of tradition and innovation, where art meets algorithms in a breathtaking 4K visual experience, thanks to the brilliance of LG OLED's digital canvases.

Quayola is known for his magical fusion of computer wizardry and classical art. He doesn't see technology as a cold, distant entity but as a lens through which to explore the wonderful tension between opposites. Think real and artificial, figurative and abstract, old and new.

With the help of ultra-high-definition cameras and custom computer software, Quayola captures subtleties beyond the realm of human perception. He turns to the 'eye' of a machine, contrasting it with our subjective human gaze. This unique approach results in hybrid compositions that echo historical aesthetics, such as classical sculpture and landscape painting, but with a thoroughly modern twist.

Kate Oh, Vice President of the Brand Communication Division at LG Home Entertainment Company, is thrilled about this captivating collaboration, stating, "We aim to redefine artistic boundaries, blending art and technology in ways that captivate and inspire audiences." The collaboration between LG and Quayola exemplifies the spirit of art and technology converging to inspire and captivate.

LG's commitment to pushing the boundaries of artistic exploration shines through this breathtaking synergy between art and technology. With "Jardins d'Été" and many more artistic endeavors, LG continues to redefine how we experience art and technology in a captivating and inspiring way.
