How to Explore Past Computer Vision Art Gallery Exhibitions and Award Winners

The Computer Vision Art Gallery site organizes its archive into four browsable sections: Past Galleries, Winner, Shortlist, and All Accepted Works. To see award results, go straight to the Winner and Shortlist sections; to browse the full historical record, use All Accepted Works, which lists entries by artist, title, and year going back to at least 2018. The most recent edition shown is CVPR 2021, held virtually due to COVID-19.

Where the award information lives

The site separates recognition into two tiers:

• Winner — a single top work per edition.
• Shortlist — a set of notable works that did not take the top prize.

For the edition shown, the winner is:

The shortlist mixes works dated 2020 and 2021, which is worth noting: the year attached to a work is its creation or release year, not necessarily the exhibition year. Shortlisted entries include:

• Yuguang Zhang — (Non-)Human (2020)
• Emidio Battipaglia — All Watched Over by Machine of Loving Grace V1.1b (2020)
• Vadim Epstein — Aphantasia (2021)
• Sofia Crespo x Entangled Others — Beneath the Neural Waves (2021)
• David Rokeby — Dundas Square Surveillance Etude (2021)
• Alexander Mordvintsev — Hexells (2020)
• yuma kishi — Mary (2020)
• VICC Mila — Omniart (2020)
• Meltem Şahin — sketches with+for+from ai (2020)
• Mal Som — Strange Fruit (2020)
• Jake Elwes — The Zizi Show (2020)

How to read the full accepted-works list

The All Accepted Works section is the broadest view of the gallery. Each entry follows the same pattern — artist name, then title, then year — so you can scan it in three useful ways:

1. By artist. Useful if you already know a practitioner (for example, Jake Elwes, Sofia Crespo, or David Rokeby) and want to see what else they showed.
2. By year. Entries range from 2018 to 2021 in the listing, so you can trace how themes shifted across editions.
3. By title. Titles often signal the technique or concept — Flocking Camouflage, Faces2voices, Paint Your Face Away, IDEOLOGICAL WAR OF GAN — which makes skimming for a topic practical.

Practical tips for navigating the archive

• Start with Winner and Shortlist if you want a curated entry point. These are the works the gallery itself flagged, so they are the fastest way to understand what the exhibition values.
• Use All Accepted Works when you want completeness. It is a flat list rather than a curated one, so expect to scroll.
• Watch the year column. Because works carry their own dates, a 2020 piece can appear alongside a 2021 edition. Do not assume the year equals the exhibition cycle.
• Note the COVID-19 context. The 2021 edition is labeled as virtual due to COVID-19, so any physical-venue assumptions do not apply to that year.

If your goal is simply to see who won, the Winner section answers it in one entry. If your goal is to survey the field of computer-vision-based art across several years, the All Accepted Works list — combined with the Shortlist — gives you the widest and most reliable picture available on the site.
