Nam June Paik Art Center presents 《Random Access Project 4.0》 as the first exhibition of the year 2025, on view through June 29. 《Random Access Project 4.0》 is the fourth version of “Random Access Project” which introduces experimental young contemporary artists.

In 2025, the exhibition features seven teams of eight artists from both domestic and international backgrounds: Goyoson, Honam Kim, Saroot Supasuthivech, yang02, Chang Hanna, Hyeseon Jeong&Seongmin Yuk, and Han Uri. The participating artists present 14 works embodying Nam June Paik’s experimental spirit, transcending conventional perceptions and frameworks.

The participating artists unveil the hidden values within modern civilization and raise questions about the established ways of thinking and conventions. They create cracks in the rigid layers of stereotypes and spark new perspectives on the world, like light streaming through the cracks. Nam June Paik Art Center hopes that this exhibition will gently break down the invisible boundaries in our consciousness and provide a space that inspires free and flexible thinking with an open mind.
