Carter Cleveland

Carter is a computer science engineer from Princeton University with a passion for fine art who, together with Sebastian Cwilich, co-founded Art.sy, whose mission is to make all the world’s art freely accessible to anyone with an internet connection. By bringing together art and science, Art.sy intends to foster new generations of art lovers, scholars, collectors, and patrons. With the Genome Project – an ongoing study of the characteristics that distinguish and connect works of art – Art.sy creates new pathways for discovering art through 800+ characteristics (“genes”). Users can discover works through connections between art historical movements, subject matter, and formal qualities, creating infinite serendipitous opportunities for discovery and learning.
