New Show Explores the Past, Present and Future of Ryoji Ikeda
As the National Asian Culture Center (ACC) in Gwangju, South Korea celebrates its 10th anniversary, it turns toRyoji Ikeda, the seminal artist who helped defines its beginnings. His first return since the inaugural 'test pattern [n°8],' the institution welcomes Ikeda back once again for a new solo exhibition, reflecting on a decade of artistic innovation and conceptual turns.
For Ikeda, data is less of a means of information, than an aesthetic material. The artist has spent over three decades pushing the boundaries of perception by transforming raw information into immersive experiences that question the nature of reality in the digital age.
The ongoing exhibition brings together seven pieces, including his seminaldata-versetrilogy in its entirety. Alongside 'dataverse 1/2/3' are four new works being shown for the first time — 'data.flux (n˚2),' 'critical mass,' 'sleeping beauty' and 'data.gram (n˚8)' — which highlight evolutions made within the artist's practice and technology at large since his 2015 ACC presentation.
Urging audiences to consider humanity's place in a world shaped by code, Ikeda channels beauty from algorithmic exhaust, offering a powerful meditation on what it means to see, hear and exist in the age of information overload.
ACC Focus 2025: Ryoji Ikedais now on view through December 28.

ACC college football stadium rankings by Google, Yelp and Tripadvisor reviews
The two best-reviewed football stadiums in the ACC also feature two of the best entrances in the entire country. The run from Howard's Rock down the hill into Clemson's Memorial Stadium (aka Death Valley) and the frenzy set off by the guitar riffs of Metallica's "Enter Sandman" when Virginia Tech walks through the tunnel into Lane Stadium are unforgettable parts of the college football experience at this point. So perhaps it's no surprise then that they also received the best marks among ACC venues, according to an analysis of more than 3,000 reviews doled out by users on Google, Yelp and Tripadvisor. Clemson's Memorial Stadium and Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium were two of five ACC stadiums that finished with a combined average score of more than 4.6 stars out of 5. Florida State's Doak Campbell Stadium, Pittsburgh's Acrisure Stadium and North Carolina State's Carter-Finley Stadium also received fared well compared to their peers in other conferences. The ACC, however, had the fewest stadiums above 4.6 among power conferences. The list differs from USA TODAY's list of best college football stadiums published last month.
