Openspace2015
preface

"Open Space 2015" is an exhibition introducing works of media art and other forms of artistic expression born out of today's media environments, to a broad audience. On display are an array of representative, historical and new works from the realm of media art, as well as results of research activities at educational institutions. In addition to showing exhibits for visitors to enjoy, it is our aim to inspire them to reflect on today's diversified media and means of communication that define the background from which these works emerged.
Also on the schedule during the exhibition period are a number of related programs including talk sessions, lectures, symposia and workshops with artists and experts, as well as guided tours around the exhibits with explanations by the curatorial staff.

A space that combines ICC's diverse functions, Open Space integrates galleries, a mini theater, and the video archive "HIVE." Since its launch in 2006, the exhibition has been held as an admission-free event with changing contents each year. Based on the mission of ICC, it aims to function as an open platform where possibilities of communication culture and art created with the help of advanced technologies can be presented to a large number of people.
