The program is an exhibition planned in collaboration with Taiwan's 'Digital Art Center Taipei,' showcasing 10 video works by four Korean artists selected by the Arko Art Center and three Taiwanese artists selected by the Digital Art Center Taipei. It will be held from the 3rd to the 26th at the Open Space on the first floor of the Arko Art Center in Dongsung-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.

This year's theme exhibition of the Digital Art Festival Taipei is 'A-Real Engine.' It is an exhibition that creates new narratives through the concept and elements of gaming, where the grammar of games has become a condition of life, and seeks ways to dismantle game mechanisms or escape system control.

The 10 video works are presented in 'Section 1. Action' and 'Section 2. Broken Intelligence.' ▲'Section 1' features Kim Hyojae, An Gayoung, Lee Eunsol, and Choo Suga, while ▲'Section 2' includes Sophia Yi Wannu Geding, Shin Cheon, Shinka Chinwha Yang, Weiliang Lin, Zui Chen, and Chen Chen. The works will be exhibited at the Digital Art Center Taipei in Taiwan and screened as part of the program at the Arko Art Center in Seoul during the same period.

Im Geunhye, director of the Arko Art Center, said, "Following last year, the collaborative planning with the Digital Art Festival Taipei will provide an opportunity to introduce digital native generation artists from Korea and Taiwan to the art scenes of both countries."
