Artist sneaks AI-generated print into museum gallery
Published: 11/11/2025

Artist Elias Marrow sneaked an AI-generated print titled Empty Plate into National Museum Cardiff, symbolizing Wales in 2025. Staff removed the artwork after it was displayed to hundreds of visitors. Marrow, aiming to challenge traditional art curation, used AI as "the natural evolution of artistic tools" to create the piece. The controversial print, depicting a schoolboy with a plate, was placed without permission in the museum's contemporary section.
