Title & Description
Digital Art EXPO 2027: From Code to Culture
From Code to Culture is an international open call for seven digital artists or collectives to exhibit their work during Digital Art EXPO 2027 in Megève, France. Taking place from January 8–10, 2027, the exhibition will present selected digital artworks on dedicated outdoor display panels installed throughout the town.
Each display will include the selected artwork, event information, a short curatorial text, and a QR code linking visitors to a dedicated webpage on the Digital Art EXPO website. This format allows audiences to access and experience digital artworks through their own devices while exploring the town.
The program also includes an artist presentation and public panel at the Megève Congress Centre on January 9, 2027. Selected artists will have the opportunity to discuss their work and artistic practices with the public. Attendance in Megève is welcome but not mandatory.
The open call focuses on how digital technologies influence artistic expression, storytelling, interaction, immersion, and cultural experience. Artists may submit existing work; creating a new artwork specifically for the exhibition is not required.
