This year, to mark the festival’s 20th anniversary, with the keyword “change,” four past Jury members have chosen Award-winning Works and Jury Selections from previous Japan Media Arts Festivals to be exhibited or screened, exemplifying the diverse expressive forms and changing nature of Media Arts (Japanese: Media Geijutsu) over that period.
The exhibition “New Styles, New Artists: The Contemporary Trend of Artists” will be held at the festival satellite venue located at the NTT InterCommunication Center [ICC] as one of the program’s feature exhibitions.
In recent years, we have witnessed the establishment of a new trend in media artists’ style of activity; they freely traverse the fields of art, design, and entertainment, sometimes engaging in works commissioned by clients, and at other times expressing themselves through creative activities in the arts field. The emergence of new artists who engage in such expansive realms of activity of self-expression has been increasing in prominence since the late 1990s, which coincides with the beginning of the annual Japan Media Arts Festival. In this exhibition, a selective introduction will be given to the works of art by these new creators who are embarking on these new formats of artistic expression.
