Suddenly, Art created with Artificial Intelligence is everywhere! What does this mean for artists and the future of visual arts?
As some struggle to decide if AI-generated images can truly be considered art, others are forging ahead, exploiting the creative potential of this revolutionary process. Meanwhile, concerns over protecting intellectual property dominate the discussion. We decided to approach these questions head on by learning more about this intersection of art and technology.

Digital Collages by Brian Flinn, created with Artificial Intelligence
Join us for “Artificial Intelligence in Art,” an informative session presented by Brian Flinn, Associate Professor of Art at Central Connecticut State University, and mixed media and digital artist. In his presentation, Flinn will:.
- Explain how artists can collaborate with Artificial Intelligence to create visual images
- Detail specific technologies used in the process
- Touch on ethical and copyright issues
- Presentation followed by Q&A
Flinn, who began his career as an illustrator, started to explore the capabilities of AI imaging software in the Fall of 2022 to create a series of works. This exploration has led him to believe that AI “. . . will drastically change the landscape of making visual imagery, and like every major innovation, it portends rich benefits as well as complex challenges.”
Don’t miss this timely presentation, as we take a closer look at the potential of generative Artificial Intelligence. Learn more about how this intersection of art and technology can open new doors to imagination, even while it raises unprecedented ethical questions AND promises to re-write the very definition of creativity.
