Jonas Lund Discovers Algorithm, Concludes Art

Jonas Lund has discovered an algorithm that can produce the most successful works of art. He demonstrated this ability in the exhibition: The Fear Of Missing Out.

"The works in the show are the result of a computer algorithm written by Lund. By analysing and categorizing a wide range of artworks, by the most successful contemporary artists, a set of instructions were generated explaining, step by step, how to make the most successful works of art. The artist then simply made the work following the instructions. In The Fear of Missing Out, important categories from the art world such as authenticity, artistry, talent, and creativity are questioned. The title also refers to the urge to be a part of a transparent information society made up of an overarching digital network."
