Open Media Art Festival
‹‹Black Swan: Unpredictable Future››

The festival title, Black Swan: Unpredictable Future has focused on the extreme impact of rare and unpredictable events and the human tendency to find explanations for these events. It also stresses the possibility of overturning all the values we protect and believe today because of the emergence of situations that we believed were impossible or nonexistent. Through the artists’ works of our time Open Media Art Festival began with a few questions that imagine the 'unpredictable future' and ask what it means or how it will affect our lives. From these questions, we are asking how artists explore and examine the future such as 'Black Swan in our time' and 'Black Swan in the near future' will be introduced and presented which will deliver various perceptions and attitudes of the artists toward the future.
