Since its inception in 2009, Roppongi Art Night has evolved into a prominent cultural event, celebrating its 14th edition this year. One of the highlights will be the "RAN Focus" program, which spotlights talented artists from specific countries or regions. This year, the focus will be on South Korea, a nation known for its dynamic contributions to the art and technology sectors.

Among the featured artists are Kim A-yeon, a prominent video artist whose work garnered attention at the Mori Art Museum’s exhibition "Machine Love: Video Games, AI and Contemporary Art," and Im Ji-bin, who creates accessible art through colorful installations using 'Bear Balloons.' Their works will be part of a vibrant display across the Roppongi area, showcasing the creative energy of six emerging Korean artists.

Roppongi, known for its art museums and cultural institutions, will serve as a canvas for over 30 artists presenting more than 50 programs that include installations, performances, music, and digital art. This unique artistic experience allows visitors to explore the neighborhood while engaging with thought-provoking projects that challenge perceptions and inspire discussions about the possibilities of art.

The organizers aim to prompt new understandings and insights, as the event responds to societal changes and emerging values. Roppongi Art Night encourages a stimulating journey of discovery that connects communities and individuals, fostering a shared appreciation of art.

In particular, the "RAN Focus" program will present thrilling contemporary works such as Kim A-yeon's major installation titled "Delivery Dancers' Ark: 0° Receiver," which explores the intersection of labor, technology, and identity in today’s digital society. Visitors can expect to see an impressive display on a colossal LED screen at Roppongi Hills Arena, as well as other significant installations across various venues.

Another notable feature will be the dynamic performance group TAGO, known for its innovative approach to traditional Korean music, which will present engaging shows throughout the weekend. Each artist will transform familiar urban spaces into temporary galleries, engaging visitors in unexpected artistic encounters.
