GS Arts Center in Seoul has revealed its 2026 season focused on multidisciplinary collaboration that dissolves traditional boundaries between art forms and audiences. Highlights include Wayne McGregor’s Deepstaria (March 27–28), a cutting-edge work combining contemporary dance, visual art and AI-driven choreography and sound, using ultra-absorbent Vantablack-like visuals for an otherworldly effect. McGregor’s Infra will also appear in Korea with the national ballet (May 8–10). In June (25–26), sculptor Kohei Nawa and choreographer Damien Jalet present Planet (Wanderer), exploring the body, digital reality and traces left in space through live performance and dance film. In April, Rimini Protokoll’s Rimini Seoul debuts as an audio walking tour: 30 participants wear headphones and follow a guided narrative through Gangnam, turning familiar cityscapes into a participatory stage and blurring lines between theater and everyday life. The season spotlights tech-art fusion and immersive formats inviting audiences to become performers.
