Botto: The Art of Collective Minds
A unique artist, result of an alliance between algorithms and thousands of human voices, who transforms the way we think about creation.
CHALLENGING CONCEPTS
Botto challenges to offset the definition of art and artist. In this alliance between humans and technology, the power of community and the role of culture as a driver of shared life are also revealed.
Autonomous, decentralized and governed by the community, Botto was born to generate images from algorithms. Its art exceeds 5 million dollars in sales, breaking boundaries and redefining the way we understand art and its creators.
For the first time in Portugal, Botto presents digital works selected by his global community, alongside discarded fragments recreated in lightboxes. The exhibition features a 1970s-inspired print edition and digital projections reflecting the DAO’s choices. Each piece showcases Neuralism, Botto’s visual language that turns algorithms into emotive, memory-filled compositions.

CREATION
Botto does not exist by itself. Its works are voted on by members of the BottoDAO community to be auctioned and the choices feed the future creativity of the system. Living proof of the power of community.
More than a neighborhood, a celebration of culture and life in community.
