Exhibition Information

			Started from the sculptor Czong Ho Kim’s studio in 1994, Czong Institute for Contemporary Art (CICA) became a unique cultural space founded and cultivated by him. Not only CICA fosters projects of experimental artists, we are open for everyone to learn about Contemporary Art and apply it to one’s life. We aim to provide a creative, yet comfortable space for artists and the community to nurture their creative and critical thinking with visual culture while they communicate with each other.

In the CICA New Media Art Conference 2021 (CICA NMAC 2021), we aim to celebrate art in the digital age and share thoughts and ideas on new forms of art and culture in relation to emerging technologies and trends including artificial intelligence, virtual/augmented reality, social media, and art in the time of pandemic. We highly value cultural exchanges among artists, researchers, and local residents worldwide and believe our event will inspire us and expand our understanding of new media art and culture in general. Due to the uncertain situation that requires social distancing, we may actively incorporate new media technologies into our event depending on the circumstances, including live streaming, video conferencing, AR, and social media, so that new media artists, researchers, and guests worldwide can participate in the event physically and/or virtually.

We invite new media art communities and art lovers worldwide to participate in our fifth international conference on New Media Art. We look forward to sharing fun, creative, and inspiring experiences with you!
