Robotarium SP

by Leonel Moura (Portugal, 2010)

Installed in the Jardim Central de Alverca, in Vila Franca de Xira, Portugal, the Robotarium is the world’s first zoo for robots. Based on the Portuguese creatures, but with distinct morphology and behavior, five small robots were constructed exclusively for the Emoção Art.ficial 5.0 – Autonomia Cibernética.

Artist Leonel Moura works in the field of artificial intelligence and robotics. He created the Robotarium in 2007, and in that same year opened the gallery LEONEL MOURA ARTe, in Lisbon, centered exclusively on exhibitions of works made by robots.

RAP3 – Robotic Action Painter

 

by Leonel Moura (Portugal, 2006)

 

An artist robot that makes paintings in gestural abstract style based on information in its code along with inputs from the public. Since 2007 it has been installed in the Hall of Human Origins at the New York Museum of Natural History, in permanent creative activity. This device generates original compositions, deciding on its own when the painting is finished, signing each one in the lower right corner just like a human artist.
