John Roberts

    John Roberts sa vo svojej tvorbe zameriava predovšetkým na vzťahy medzi umením, fotografiou a každodenným životom. Jeho diela skúmajú, ako umenie reaguje na realitu a akým spôsobom je táto realita zobrazovaná a interpretovaná. Robertsov prístup sa vyznačuje analytickým vhľadom do umeleckých a estetických konceptov, ktorý čitateľom ponúka hlbšie porozumenie umeleckým teóriám.

      Jon Roberts – mafián nazývaný kokaínový kovboj – zodpovedal za dovoz kokaínu do Spojených štátov amerických v období rozkvetu medellínskeho kartelu. V tejto knihe bez zábran rozpráva o svojom živote. Narodil sa do mafiánskej „šľachtickej rodiny“. V siedmich rokoch sa prvý raz stal svedkom vraždy a už v dvadsiatich dvoch riadil takmer všetky nočné kluby v New Yorku. Bol jedným z najvýkonnejších pašerákov mafiánskeho klanu na Miami. V zozname Robertsových priateľov a známych sa nachádzajú mnohé slávne osobnosti druhej polovice minulého storočia – Jimi Hendrix, Richard Pryor, O. J. Simpson, Carlo Gambino, Meyer Lansky či Manuel Noriega. Jeho moc neunikla pozornosti vedenia Republikánskej strany, ktorá ho lákala do svojich radov. Dokonca samotná CIA ho poverila tajnými operáciami. Jon Roberts bezpochyby patrí k zločincom, ktorí zmenili americké dejiny.

      Micheál O'Connell's work is analyzed through the lens of artistic deflation and subversion of technical systems. John Roberts explores how artists navigate the complexities of digital culture, emphasizing the importance of understanding the impact of Artificial Intelligence on creativity and perception. O'Connell's approach combines technical knowledge with a comedic critique of algorithms that influence our lives, advocating for a broader critique of computational reason. This positions artists as key players in challenging the dominant narratives surrounding technology's role in society.
