Art leads design. Design leads product development. We want to showcase the best and newest interactive art that can point the way to future interaction design and future interactive products. Even if we cannot see the implications of the art, we want to show it and stimulate the community to think creatively, to engage as interaction professionals with interactive art. Beyond that, we just want to show the best interactive art in this first CHI art exhibition.

We are calling for exhibits, both for a catalog and for the exhibition “Inter/Action: digital art that responds” presented by ACM SIGCHI CHI2016 and WORKS/San Jose Gallery: an exhibition that will be open to the public and last six weeks, feature work selected from submissions to CHI and representations of historically significant interactive art.

You may have demonstrated an artwork in the Interactivity section of CHI in the past, but this year there is the new, additional, opportunity of exhibiting in a public gallery devoted only to art. CHI takes on Art and we will be showing the value of our best work in a full art context.

Launching at the conference, the exhibition will extend until mid-June.
