AI Attacks: Paolo Cirio Resurrects Historical Mercenaries

Paolo Cirio’s solo exhibition “AI Attacks” opens at Foam, Amsterdam, as part of the photography museum’s big AI survey. Framing the technology as a form of “automated violence, expressed through surveillance, discrimination, and disinformation,” the Italian artist shows three past works, Capture (2020), Obscurity (2016), and Street Ghosts (2012-), and a newly commissioned piece: Resurrect (2024) revives four historical mercenaries through an unnerving display of deepfake videos, 3D printed skulls, military uniforms and insignia.
