Abstraction
Heritage
NarrativeThe 4th AI for Visual Arts workshop at ECCV 2026 explores how computer vision perceives, interprets, models, and generates abstraction across artistic and cultural imagery — paintings, comics, films, typography, sculpture, and heritage artefacts that challenge the assumptions of conventional models.
Building on three successful editions, AI4VA now expands toward the frontier of generative and agentic creativity: world models for cinematic simulation, long-form video generation for storyboarding, neural 3D representations for creative domains, and agentic workflows for art, film, and storytelling — alongside our enduring focus on perception under abstraction, provenance, and the digitisation and restoration of cultural heritage.
Advance robust segmentation, saliency, depth, and multimodal reasoning under stylization and abstraction. Evaluate how vision models interpret artistic imagery and generalize beyond photorealism.
Push long-form, temporally coherent video generation, world models, neural 3D representations, and agentic workflows that give artists cinematic and stylistic control over the creative process.
Benchmark watermarking, authenticity, and provenance in AI-assisted art; digitise historic archives and apply spatial intelligence to the restoration and preservation of cultural heritage.
