Nasher Museum’s ‘Everything Now All At Once’ Celebrates Diversity, Resilience, and Joy

‘The Generative Universe’: Keith Tyson returns to LA with new exhibition at Hauser & Wirth

Keith Tyson, the Turner Prize-winning British artist, returns to Los Angeles with his first exhibition in the city since 2009, titled “The Generative Universe,” on view at Hauser & Wirth from May 28 to August 16. The show spans 30 years of his career, featuring paintings, sculptures, drawings, and mixed media works that explore generative systems—artworks created through rule-based structures shaped by mathematics, technology, nature, and the artist's own choices. Central to the exhibition is Tyson's early computer program “Artmachine,” which he developed in the 1990s to generate prompts for his own creative process, contrasting with today's AI image generators that respond to human prompts.
