AI: ArtLens for Slack
ArtLens for Slack allows users to recharge, get inspired, and discuss current topics in the digital workplace. It’s an app that combines the traditional museum experience and those in-office watercooler conversations. Like visiting the museum with your coworkers, it recreates the experience of a team-building exercise from the comfort of your home office. ArtLens for Slack is part of the ArtLens toolsets along with Share Your View and Extend the Art.
Connect Through Art
Developed during the COVID-19 pandemic, ArtLens for Slack was the first rapid response art exhibition designed for remote workplaces.

ArtLens for Slack is the first rapid-response art exhibition app designed for remote workplaces. It was a finalist for the 2020 Fast Company Innovation by Design Awards in the Workplace category, focusing on projects that reveal an inspiring vision for a better future. It generates artworks from the CMA’s collection based on a prompt, bringing works that span centuries to present-day conversations.
How It Works
- Install ArtLens for Slack (You must be an admin on your workspace to do this).
- You must create a channel (we suggest #artlens-daily-exhibition) and invite the @artlens bot, as well as your team members, for this to work. Please do not make the channel private, otherwise you will not receive notifications.
- Invite ArtLens to your selected channel with the command `/invite @artlens`.
- Stay tuned for daily prompts, Monday–Friday at 9:00 a.m., in the form of direct messages from @artlens.
- Select an artwork based on the prompt and share your thoughts.
- At 5:00 p.m. every weekday, go check out your team’s artworks and comments on #artlens-daily-exhibitions (or your selected channel).
