Francesco De Prezzo’s work explores experiential ideas in inventive manufacturing, characterised by an strategy that subverts the art work, starting from its destruction to cancellation or substitute.

This theme can also be evident within the present exhibition, the place the artist experiments with the usage of a synthetic intelligence mannequin, a custom-made model of GPT-4 from OpenAi.

This mannequin has been educated to acknowledge, buy, and ship to the gallery objects accessible on Amazon which might be aesthetically primarily based on the artist’s portfolio, offering visible continuity with their earlier physique of labor. The objects, delivered on to the exhibition house, steadily turn out to be a part of the exhibit and are later returned by means of an automatic return course of managed by the algorithm, inside a set interval.

This strategy represents a steady exploration by De Prezzo of the ephemeral and variable nature of the exhibition, difficult conventional conventions of inventive possession and subverting the theme of sculpture. Rooted in a collective visible logic—the one within the algorithm—this strategy to sculpture redefines the essence of the setup.
