Extracted Abstract:

In 1960s, Japanese Digital Artists were already introduced internationally by their pioneering works. In 2002, Digital/Media Art became the required course of junior-high/high schoolart classes, and digital art expressions including computer graphics have been in the ascendant to show the broader diversity than ever. Like other Asian countries, government has started supporting the Media Art contents and today’s Japanese art students, whose works have been highly evaluated even overseas, to enter a new phase. I would like to report on the current situations of media art education and support system for Media Art in Japan and consider the future of upcoming talents, by examining examples; Japan Media Arts Festival and also quote the experience of many exhibitions on media art for over ten years, at the Images & technology Gallery in Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, which founded as a public institution of image media.. 1.
