Refik Anadol to open first museum of AI arts, Dataland, in Los Angeles

US – Refik Anadol Studio has announced the opening of Dataland, the world’s first Museum of AI Arts, set to debut in 2025 at The Grand LA in downtown Los Angeles.

The project aims to blend human imagination with artificial intelligence, redefining artistic expression in the digital age. It will showcase innovative experiences, including an inaugural exhibition using the world’s first open-source AI model based on nature data.

‘Establishing Dataland at The Grand LA is a full-circle moment,’ said Anadol, reflecting on his journey that began with his fascination for Los Angeles at 8-years-old. Dataland will then join notable cultural venues in the city, including the Walt Disney Concert Hall and The Broad.

Designed in collaboration with Gensler and Arup, the initiative promises to be a hub for innovative art experiences, contributing to the vibrant cultural corridor of Los Angeles.
