NC Sponsors 'Games and Art' Exhibition... Helping to Spread the Artistic Value of Games
[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Nahum] NCSoft is expanding the cultural and artistic value of games through content that combines games and art.
NCSoft announced on the 2nd that it is sponsoring and participating as an artist in the exhibition "Game & Art: Auguries of Fantasy," currently being held at the Daejeon Museum of Art Creation Center.
At this exhibition, NCSoft is presenting the "NC PLAY" series, which embodies the corporate value of "PUSH, PLAY."
The exhibition features four concepts: "NC ART PLAY," a media art created using game data; "NC TOON PLAY," a webtoon containing stories from games; "NC TYPE PLAY," which interprets game content through pictorial language; and "NC FICTION PLAY," introducing short stories by seven leading domestic authors.
NCSoft has consistently promoted games as an art form. Previously, it unveiled the media art "Mixed Dimension" and the webtoon "The Overlay," which contains the game’s worldview.
