Posthuman: New Media Art 2020

CICA Press supports “young” culture makers, who have passion, critical thought, and desire for creative and experimental expression, regardless of their ag

e and background. We have believed that our inexhaustible passion for art and expression and a reckless rebelliousness can change the world.

CICA Press deals with visual art and culture from perspectives of local artists. To overcome uniform dissemination of contemporary art from the “center of Art,” we aim to introduce local artists and cultures from different regions to global audiences and connect them with each other. CICA Press provides online and offline spaces to create a global network among local artists, designers, audiences, and communities so they can make, appreciate, and live in art in their regions and cultures.

“Posthuman: New Media Art 2020” features 56 new media artists worldwide who participated in the CICA New Media Art Conference 2019, Art Teleported Brooklyn NY 2019, and Post-Human: The 5th International Exhibition on New Media Art.
