Japan Media Arts Festival "Special Exhibition" Set for Nov. 26-29 in Hong Kong under Theme of "Ubiquitous Humanity"
Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs organizes participation in various overseas media art festivals through projects planned and managed by NHK International, Inc. The aim is to introduce outstanding works in such fields as media art, video, websites, videogames, animation and comics.
This "Special Exhibition" in Hong Kong will present award-winning works from the past Japan Media Arts Festival. This edition titled "Ubiquitous Humanity" will present works by 14 artists from six countries. By amplifying and mimicking people's gestures, the works examine the boundaries between the human and the machine, and question the human condition. Through this exhibition, screenings, and performances, "Ubiquitous Humanity" will offer a unique opportunity for the audience to interact with and enjoy powerful media art works.
