SeMA Biennale Mediacity Seoul will be held 01 Sep to 20 Nov 2016 in Hiroshima, Japan. SeMA Biennale Mediacity Seoul has continually served as a international stage for the historical evolution of new media art and positioned itself as one of the leading festivities garnering major attention both within and outside the country. Hosted by the city of Seoul, Media City Seoul as a public cultural biennial seeks to integrate the revolutionary worlds of new technologies and contemporary trans-disciplinary art. Within the framework of the city’s vision as a media metropolis, the biennial brings together artists, scholars, curators, corporate visionaries, and audiences from around the world to participate in a program of art exhibitions and subsidiary events. Media City Seoul aims to firmly establish Seoul as a hub of information technology, media arts, and new digital culture. SeMA Biennale Mediacity Seoul is an event and I like events...
Sharing the “post-museum” vision of Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA), SeMA Biennale Mediacity Seoul is a recurring international survey of contemporary art, with a focus on media art and other art forms that pertain to the concept of media. Founded in 2000, Mediacity Seoul has reflected the city of Seoul as a center of media art and technology, and expanded the identity of Seoul Museum of Art. Its mission focuses on serving as a catalyst for creating momentums for art, media, and technology; promoting local artists while encouraging international conversations; and incubating a wider constituency for art and culture.
The ninth edition will take place from September 1 to November 20, 2016, under the curation of Beck Jee-sook.
