MACHINE ARTS GALLERY PRESENTS

PETER BEYLS

This Friday, Machine Arts Gallery is excited to welcome Peter Beyls back to Peekskill for an exhibition of entirely new work, including a new series of generative portraits.

For more than five decades, Beyls has explored the intersections of art, music, computation, and generative systems, continually investigating how rules, processes, machines, and chance can become creative collaborators. His work spans a wide range of media and approaches, reflecting a longstanding interest in the relationship between technology and artistic expression.

WHITNEY

Museum of American Art

The Bantam Tools ArtFrame™ was born out of a landmark exhibition of the late Harold Cohen’s work in February 2024. Designed to meet the standards of institutions like the Whitney, it's the solution for artists whose work belongs on the walls of serious collections.


Toledo Museum of Art

“Our visitors loved the Bantam Tools ArtFrame when it was in the Infinite Images Exhibition, and I loved it because it was one of the most reliable pieces of technology I've ever used in an exhibition at Toledo Museum of Art, and I've been doing exhibition AV for 20 years!”
