Boris Eldagsen
Photomedia Artist

Abstract: In March 2023, Boris Eldagsen declined a prize from the Sony World Photography Awards, revealing that his entry was created using generative AI. In a statement, Eldagsen called for artists to engage in a “discussion about what we want to consider photography and what not.” This RESI Dialog event seeks to facilitate this discussion. Eldagsen will review his decades-long career in photography and photomedia, as well as his upcoming projects which use digital technology to explore the complexities of the human subconscious. He will examine his role as a public educator and consultant, addressing the opportunities and challenges posed by generative AI for artists, journalists, and students.
