Open from June 20, 2026, to Jan. 31, 2027, and developed by Refik Anadol Studio, the exhibition unfolds across five galleries and 25,000 square feet of public space, redefining the museum as a site of continuous production where art is no longer a finished object but emerges in real time through the interplay of data, computation and human presence.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the exhibition is the Large Nature Model (LNM), the world\u2019s first open-access multimodal AI trained solely on nature data, drawing on more than 500 million images responsibly sourced from institutions including the Smithsonian, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Getty, iNaturalist and London\u2019s Natural History Museum. The LNM is hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure in Oregon, operating on 87% carbon-free renewable energy.<\/p>\n<p>            <img class=\"image\" alt=\"A visitor takes the escalator surrounded by pink lighted screens\"   width=\"2000\" height=\"1501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097513_0_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>         <\/p>\n<p>A visitor takes the escalator down to the first portal at Dataland.<\/p>\n<p>(Genaro Molina \/ Los Angeles Times)<\/p>\n<p>                   <img class=\"image\" alt=\"People sit and stand in a room surrounded by swirling purple lights \"   width=\"2000\" height=\"1501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097514_825_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>         <\/p>\n<p>Visitors are immersed in imagery at Dataland.<\/p>\n<p>(Genaro Molina \/ Los Angeles Times)<\/p>\n<p>                   <img class=\"image\" alt=\"show creator Refik Anadol.\"   width=\"2000\" height=\"1501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097514_171_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>         <\/p>\n<p>Media artist Refik Anadol, second from right, stands with the first visitors at Dataland.<\/p>\n<p>(Genaro Molina \/ Los Angeles Times)<\/p>\n<p data-element=\"media-set-index\" class=\"absolute flex items-center justify-center z-1 left-0 bottom-0 h-1.25 w-1.25 m-0 p-2.5 font-cms-font-service-text font-medium text-xs leading-none text-cms-color-overlay-text bg-blackAlpha65\"> 1 <\/p>\n<p>             <img class=\"image\" alt=\"Benjamin Feinberg and his wife Amy.\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097515_934_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>           <\/p>\n<p data-element=\"media-set-index\" class=\"absolute flex items-center justify-center z-1 left-0 bottom-0 h-1.25 w-1.25 m-0 p-2.5 font-cms-font-service-text font-medium text-xs leading-none text-cms-color-overlay-text bg-blackAlpha65\"> 2 <\/p>\n<p>             <img class=\"image\" alt=\"Benjamin Feinberg and his wife Amy, are immersed in the Infinity room.\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097515_560_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>           <\/p>\n<p data-element=\"media-set-index\" class=\"absolute flex items-center justify-center z-1 left-0 bottom-0 h-1.25 w-1.25 m-0 p-2.5 font-cms-font-service-text font-medium text-xs leading-none text-cms-color-overlay-text bg-blackAlpha65\"> 3 <\/p>\n<p>             <img class=\"image\" alt=\"Benjamin Feinberg and his wife Amy, are immersed in the Infinity room.\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097516_869_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>           <\/p>\n<p data-element=\"media-set-index\" class=\"absolute flex items-center justify-center z-1 left-0 bottom-0 h-1.25 w-1.25 m-0 p-2.5 font-cms-font-service-text font-medium text-xs leading-none text-cms-color-overlay-text bg-blackAlpha65\"> 4 <\/p>\n<p>             <img class=\"image\" alt=\"Benjamin Feinberg and his wife Amy, are immersed in the Infinity room.\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782097516_792_.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>         <\/p>\n<p id=\"media-set-0000019e-eb75-d123-adbf-ebfd842d0013\" data-element=\"media-set-caption\" class=\"col-span-full mx-5 my-0 font-cms-font-service-text font-medium text-xs leading-3.5 text-cms-color-brand-text lg:mx-0\">  <strong data-element=\"media-set-meta-index\" class=\"font-cms-font-service-text font-bold\">1.<\/strong>  Benjamin Feinberg, foreground, and his wife, Amy, are immersed in a changing kaleidoscope of imagery in the Infinity room.
