Get Lost in Sebastian Errazuriz’s Faena Beach Maze and More
Faena Art unveils the latest triumphs of the artist, designer, and activist Sebastian Errazuriz as part of the comprehensive exhibition “Spaces of Influence: Shaping Community in the Modern World.” A focal point of Miami Art Week, “MAZE: Journey Through the Algorithmic Self” is a labyrinth of sand on Faena Beach, designed using leading AI technology. With the goal of inspiring human connection while navigating the realities of our digitized society, the installation leads to a vast communal center. A new book by the artist, titled AI MAZE, will become accessible to visitors by way of QR codes; in a collaborative vein, the book will both enlighten readers to the potential impacts of AI, as well as request crowd-sourced sentiments on the subject. Within the Faena Hotel Cathedral, a marble sculpture, Battle of the Corporate Nations, will place tech giants Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk in a fantastical struggle reminiscent of Italian Renaissance artworks.
