We invite artists, scholars, and researchers from around the world to participate in the International Symposium for Visual Culture & Exhibition 2025. This global gathering of artists, researchers, and academics will take place in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland, near Washington, D.C., and will be accompanied by an exhibition at the CICA Museum in Korea. The symposium is hosted by Montgomery College’s Visual and Performing Arts Department and organized by the CICA Museum.
ISVC is an international platform for diverse and critical perspectives on visual culture. Through ISVC, we aim to create a global network of researchers/artists and consumers/makers of visual culture, and foster critical thoughts and in-depth understanding of visual culture on a global scale.
Participating artists and researchers will be featured in the book “New Media Art 2026.” The book is expected to be released in full-color paperback in December 2025. The article may include any form of text (e.g., interview, essay, poetry) in English, drawings, and pictures that introduce the artists’ works.
