KT&G Sangsangmadang is accepting applications for its 20th
Anniversary Exhibition Support Project until April 28.
The competition focuses on AI-powered artworks and new, previously
unreleased works. KT&G Sangsangmadang, known for fostering a unique
cultural ecosystem, is launching a new exhibition support initiative to mark
its 20th anniversary.
Applicants can submit the required documents, including an
application form and portfolio, through the official KT&G Sangsangmadang
website. The selection process will be conducted by expert judges from the
culture and arts sector, who will choose one final artist or team per category
through a first-round portfolio screening and a second-round face-to-face
evaluation.
The selected artists will have the opportunity to exhibit their
work at KT&G Sangsangmadang Hongdae from August 22 to October 19. They will
also receive financial support, exhibition space, operational assistance, and
promotional resources, including videos and photography services. Winning works
in the "AI-Powered Art" category will also be exhibited at
Sangsangmadang Daechi Gallery starting in November.
“As we launch this new project in celebration of our 20th
anniversary, we hope to see applications from artists who push through the
boundaries of artistic expression with their originality,” said Kim Jeong-yoon,
KT&G Exhibition Director. “KT&G will continue to support the
sustainable growth of the art world through various cultural initiatives.”
KT&G Sangsangmadang serves as a multifaceted cultural and
artistic space, supporting the creative activities of emerging artists while
offering diverse cultural experiences to the public. Since opening its first
venue, Sangsangmadang Hongdae, in 2007, it has expanded to five locations,
including Nonsan, Chuncheon, Daechi, and Busan, contributing to the expansion
of cultural arts and regional development. It attracts around 3.1 million
visitors annually and hosts more than 3,000 cultural and artistic programs
every year.
