The open call for visiting artists in the 2024 ICCI ART VALLEY PROGRAM will center on international artists who work with comprehensive media materials in their art practice. With the continuous development of science and technology, the mediums and boundaries of artistic works have been constantly redefined, which has reshaped public perceptions of society, culture, and the artworks themselves. The program specifically focuses on the convergence of "Art plus Technology”, exploring innovative fusion between “Technology" and “Regional culture”, while also delving into the global perspective of contemporary art and cultural diversity.

Embracing an open perspective and cross-media practice, the program aims to explore the interaction between humans and nature, as well as society, through artistic creation. It seeks to delve into symbiosis within the realm of technology, and interpret artists' reshaping of tradition and memory through their works. Ultimately, the program endeavors to address changes in urban culture through artistic expression. ICCI is openly recruiting five international artists and scholars to participate in the 2024 ICCI ART VALLEY PROGRAM for a residency from November 1 to December 15, 2024. Selected visiting artists will hold exhibitions at art Museums in downtown Shanghai, virtual Space, and the Shanghai Jiao Tong University History Museum.
