Michelangelo Pistoletto Mirror of Eternity Presented by DMINTI For over six decades, Italian artist Michelangelo Pistoletto has returned to the mirror throughout his lifelong practice as a way to place the viewer at the center of art. His early Mirror Paintings of the 1960s reflected the spectator directly into the image, making each encounter unique and unrepeatable. With Mirror of Eternity, Pistoletto extends this exploration into the digital age, where reflection, presence, and memory take on new dimensions. As the artist explains: Why Eternity? Mirror of Eternity is a work of art that invites all of humanity to step into a state of immortality through artificial intelligence. As technology evolves, we have created a virtual sky—a digital dimension—around our planet. To participate in Mirror of Eternity, you upload a portrait of yourself, the system merges it with another’s portrait, and you witness the birth of an entirely new face—one that has never existed before. In this act of artificial creation, we mirror the processes of nature—perpetual renewal, generation after generation. In Mirror of Eternity, your likeness is preserved not as static memory, but as an ever‑evolving presence. It remains active in the virtual world, continually meeting others, giving rise to new combinations—new expressions of shared humanity.
