We are pleased to host the 10th CICA New Media Art Conference CICA . During the conference, we come together to celebrate art in the digital era, sharing research, creative practices, and reflections on how emerging technologies and global issues influence contemporary art and culture.

The 2026 conference will cover a wide spectrum of themes, including artificial intelligence and creativity, environmental and eco-art practices, digital aesthetics, art and social media, new media installations, immersive and interactive art, and the intersections of art, politics, technology, and education.

We look forward to welcoming new media art communities and art lovers from around the world to share meaningful, creative, and inspiring experiences together at CICA NMAC 2026.

2026년, 제10회 CICA 뉴 미디어 아트 국제 콘퍼런스가 CICA 미술관에서 개최됩니다. 이번 콘퍼런스에서는 디지털 시대의 예술을 기념하며, 새로운 기술과 전 세계적 이슈들이 동시대 예술과 문화에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 탐구하고, 연구자와 예술가들이 창작과 담론을 교류하는 자리를 마련합니다.

2026년 콘퍼런스는 인공지능과 예술적 창의성, 환경 및 생태 예술, 디지털 미학, 예술과 소셜 미디어, 뉴미디어 설치 및 몰입형·인터랙티브 아트, 그리고 예술·정치·기술·교육의 교차점 등 다양한 주제를 포괄할 예정입니다.

전 세계의 뉴미디어 아트 커뮤니티와 예술 애호가들이 한자리에 모여 창의적이고 영감을 주는 경험을 함께 나누는 뜻깊은 자리가 되기를 기대합니다.
