The Asia Digital Art Award FUKUOKA, a media art competition, was launched in 2001 as a place to discover and nurture creators with advanced technology and rich sensibilities who are responsible for the creation of digital content. This year, the 22nd edition of the competition will be held under the theme “High artistic sensitivity based on logical thinking,” which we have been pursuing ever since its inception. The winning works will be exhibited at the “2022 Asia Digital Art Grand Prix FUKUOKA” exhibition. Applicants can present their works and activities to a wide range of people in Fukuoka, a hub of exchange in Asia.
We are looking forward to seeing the works of many creators this year!
