Robots-художники in the art world is no longer news. In 2018 Christie's for $432,5 thousand were sold the first ever picture created by generative-состязательной neural network. Last year, artworks created using artificial intelligence, exhibited in the Hermitage, and the British Engineered Arts even published, anthropomorphic robot with whom you can talk.

Contemporary British artists Rob and Nick Carter went even further: they taught the robot not only to follow a given program to create a visual image, but in the literal sense — to write a paper smear for smear, as do the artists. Unlike previous samples Robo-творчества, which were printed on special printers, robot-манипулятор named artists Heidi, simulates the movement of the hands of artists, physically dipping the brush in paint and applying brush strokes to the canvas. Thus, the art created artificial intelligence has made significant strides in its development, giving us a new generation of portraits created by a robot.

This result was preceded by years the development of new technologies, implemented by the German company KUKA robots, as well as the months of writing code. Only for training artificial hands Heidi the movements of the brush, the artist at the time working, and create an algorithm of the necessary actions it took many hours recording in the Studio 12 different artists using different techniques and materials (oil, acrylic, enamel, etc.). Top was filming and recorded in minute detail every movement of the hands of the artists to identify the most characteristic iteration order and a repeating pattern of gestures that specialists were then able to turn into a line of code, clear the car.

the results of the robot Heidi — portraits of the main creators of modern art from Andy Warhol to Sidney Sherman and Yoko Ono, and record the process of creating these paintings in the form of many hours of video-арта can be seen and purchased from 12 February to 17 April 2020 in the framework of the exhibition by Rob and nick Carter Dark Factory Portraits in the London gallery Ben Brown Fine Arts. There you can order the robot and a self-portrait. According to according to, published by the Telegraph, the price of such work will be about £20 thousand
