In 2025, the Beall Center for Art + Technology marks its 25th anniversary as a leading venue for experimental media arts. This milestone year honors a legacy of groundbreaking exhibitions, community engagement, and interdisciplinary collaboration that continues to shape the future of contemporary art and digital culture. A year of celebratory events will open with 25 Years at the Beall Center for Art + Technology, a retrospective look at the center’s rich exhibition history and signature artist residency program. Highlighting its wide-ranging and interdisciplinary explorations of emerging technologies, a comprehensive timeline is illustrated through nine thematic lenses: Bio Art, Complex Systems, Data & Research, Games & Narrative, Identity, Interactivity, Robotics, Sounds & Scores, and Video.
25 Years at the Beall Center for Art + Technology is supported by The Beall Family Foundation and the Claire Trevor School of the Arts.
