This year's edition of the Bucharest Biennial, entitled "Farewell to Research," will launch online on June 28 in reaction to the global pandemic. While the ninth Bucharest Biennial is migrating online, organisers have recently announced that an artificial intelligence system will curate the 2022 edition of the art fair.

The AI program is named Jarvis in reference to the loyal household butler of the Stark family in the Marvel Comics titles Iron Man and The Avengers.
