Artificial intelligence applications can recognize and evaluate the images and generate new ones by synthesizing them with the help of its subfields-the machine learning and computational creativity-. These applications are capable of classifying artists and their works in terms of creativity scores, evaluating aesthetics or analyze artistic styles; thus, makes it easier to make expertise and prevent forgery. It is also used as a guiding vehicle in the restorations or digital archieve organization processes with its mentioned properties. Artificial intelligence has a potential to produce creative and aesthetic artworks. It can make style transfer, emotional modelling, text-to-image generation or create photorealistic images from sketches by adding them perspective and texture. By accessing online databases, these algorithms are capable of compiling from the resources related to the work it will create, improving itself or producing more advanced versions of itself. Artificial intelligence artifacts with the characteristic of an artist or a movement, or of a unique quality outside of the existing styles, are being exhibited at museums and galleries. Having an impact on a large part of modern life, this technology is a tool open to experimentation which can be used to reach the limits of artistic experiences and to create original components. It is a new area for examining the identity of the contemporary artist and work of art, and for explicating modern concepts. Artificial intelligence is an advanced assistant which is capable of reflecting the spirit of the age to the work of art; and is the novel form of expression for conceptual art. This study aims to classify the researches and projects of visual arts-artificial intelligence collaboration. As a result of the literature review, it was determined that the mentioned works were prepared to perform one of the two main functions: artwork analysis or synthesis. This study is shaped accordingly; following the section on the artificial intelligence's methods of artistic analysis, its image synthesizing methods are explained.
