Following 2023’s massive global success, ShinHan Art is thrilled to announce the commencement of the 28th ShinHan Postcard Art Contest for 2024.

The 28th ShinHan Postcard Art Contest, under the innovative theme "My Future with AI: Building a Brighter Tomorrow," invites young artists worldwide to envision the future of artificial intelligence in art. This theme encourages participants to think creatively about how AI can be harmoniously integrated into artistic practices, reflecting both the possibilities and challenges posed by technological advancements in creativity. Hosted by ShinHan Art, the ShinHan Postcard Art Contest has been running for 27 years with a dedicated aim to educate and grow young artists in Korea. Since 1997 this event has attracted more than 400,000 entries to date from youth across the nation. It has become one of the most prestigious, highly recognized and appreciated contests by the Korean art industry. ShinHan Postcard Art Contest was opened to art lovers from all over the world in 2018. Last year’s ShinHan Postcard Art Contest was filled with the creative imaginations and precious memories of many young and enthusiastic artists from 70+countries. Open to global participants aged 4 to 18, the contest offers a platform for emerging talents to showcase their artistic interpretations through a postcard-sized canvas. Using fine art paint as the primary medium, artists are encouraged to incorporate other media to a lesser extent, allowing for a diverse range of artistic expressions that capture their unique visions of a technology-integrated future.

This contest not only highlights the technical skills and imaginative capacities of young artists but also serves as a reflection of their thoughts on the evolving relationship between technology and human creativity.
