About

About

G.A.I.A. (Global AI & Interdisciplinary Arts) Prize recognises distinguished artistic achievement in the field of artificial intelligence and interdisciplinary contemporary practice. It honours works that demonstrate innovation, critical depth, and conceptual originality in their engagement with AI as both medium and structural condition.


G.A.I.A. is not conceived as a technology award, but as a curatorial distinction. It acknowledges artistic practices that interrogate, reinterpret, and expand the cultural, aesthetic, and philosophical implications of artificial intelligence.


By foregrounding critical rigor alongside experimentation, the GAIA Prize positions AI not merely as a tool, but as a transformative force shaping contemporary artistic production.

The Prize is conferred by the GAIA Curatorial Board, composed of representatives from SPIRA9, The Wrong Biennale, and The Koppel Project.
