IA-RT is a youth exchange run by the Lorelei Youth Centre in Paris together with forum JUGEND! and Youth Horizons from Armenia, funded by the Franco-German Youth Office (DFJW / OFAJ). For one week the question was what art has to do with artificial intelligence, and what we can do with it.
The week
- Painting workshops and drawing in the park, discussions about creativity and algorithms
- Paris as the workshop: Petit Palais, 59 Rivoli and many studios in between
- A visit to the Armenian Embassy and a conversation with Aram Hakobyan from the Permanent Delegation of Armenia to UNESCO
- Final exhibition at the Mairie du 10e arrondissement de Paris with the participants' works
At the end, certificates were handed out in Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, with lots of hugs and a promise to meet again. More than a certificate: days full of creativity, new experiences and friendships between France, Germany and Armenia.
