Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 12/10/2025Friese Undine’s new exhibition is slyly, hysterically, funny. Cults of historical re-enactors, cannibals and naturists nostalgically jostle elbows with historical figures who may be different than we expect. At @thomasvandykegallery, Sunset Park Brooklyn, 434 39th Street, Thu-Sun, 1-6pm. Thru Nov. 7 050

Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Famously, AI systems crunch text and images based on the datasets that humans feed them. To create this work, rather than using AI, I fed myself a dataset of images of dead men in iconic European paintings. The naked and clothed male body is a complicated signifier. The images carry the content. 140
Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 22/09/2025I’m loving this beautiful zine put out by @worcesterportraitexchange from their recent event at JMAC in MA. Exchanging portraits seems to hold out the possibility of a utopian solution to the fraught ethics of visual representation. It’s not a perfect form, but it is so inspiring. Excellent! 040
Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 20/09/2025Thanks to everyone for coming out to the opening last night! Here’s a first batch of photos. Special thanks to Chris Quirk for these images.

Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 17/09/2025Facial recognition systems use different math techniques but an interesting one, visually speaking, is Eigenfaces, first used by computer scientists in 1991 to classify faces by using a system of vector math that reduced differences in facial characteristics to allow for quicker processing. 130

Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 12/09/2025For fifteen years, as I’ve commuted to work and lived my life, I’ve gone down into my subway stop in Brooklyn and come back up latet. This is a portrait of the cameras that watch me. I see them, and they see me. Somewhere there are people watching. Somewhere there is an archive of my travels. 4307

Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 27/07/2025I just reread Hito Steyerl’s 2017 “Duty Free Art: Art in the Age of Planetary Civil War.” Still provocative. Göbekli Tepe, neural networks, “suicide cameras” mounted on missiles, art storage in extra-national freeports, Wikileaks, Hans Holbein paintings, game theory, and more. Thx for the tip, Dan. 150
Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 12/07/2025I’ve been thinking about the ways that artists and writers connect and how that becomes apparent in archival materials. I knew about the connection between Beauford Delaney and James Baldwin but I didn’t realize that he also had a decades-long friendship with Henry Miller. All very satisfying. 140
Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 09/07/2025“Facial Horizon; Facial Hallucination,” Oil, Acrylic and Spray Paint of Canvas, 12 inches by 54 inches, 2025. 130
Peter Walsh @walshpeter.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Bigger isn’t necessarily better. Especially when you paint. But bigger is different. You measure a work with your body and a canvas that you can step into asks you to move differently and see differently. There’s a dance to be had. This canvas is the largest I’ve worked on in many years. 130
