SUMMARY:Art Gallery
DESCRIPTION:The SIGGRAPH 2026 Art Gallery explores computer graphics and i
 nteractive techniques as languages and materials to express artistic visio
 ns and experiences. The theme “In-Betweens” highlights the interactions th
 at the twelve installations establish with space, time, and generations. A
 cross media and approaches, including screens, projections, installations,
  sculptures, retro devices, wearables, bio art, data visualization art, ro
 botics, and space art, the Art Gallery brings together creators whose work
 s address large-scale questions and humanitarian concerns; investigate fou
 ndational components such as algorithmic methods and computing hardware; e
 xpand how we perceive an increasingly interconnected world; and re-examine
  and speculate about our place within the layered infrastructures of conte
 mporary technology.\n\nA Walled City\n\nPlease visit our website: https://
