Artist Matthew Ritchie (@matthewritchiestudio) has developed an installation and painting practice drawing from the vocabularies of science, sociology, anthropology, mythology, and the history of art. For our October issue, Ritchie discussed his process making his new paintings, the question of Artificial Intelligence-aided art, and subverting AI with Rail Editor-at-Large Jason Rosenfeld (@jmrnyc1). “Strangely enough, this specific form of machine learning allowed me to admit that I was actually a painter, because it freed me from thinking, to be with the paintings in time,” Ritchie tells Rosenfeld. “I kind of came out as a painter to myself.” You can read this full Feature conversation through the link in our bio. And you can see Ritchie’s show, A Garden in the Machine, on view at James Cohan’s (@jamescohangallery) 48 Walker Street location through October 15 🍂 #MatthewRitchie #JamesCohan #AGardenintheMachine #JasonRosenfeld #AIart
