▲ Visitors explore the Samsung Lounge at Art Basel in Basel 2026, where Samsung Art Store was presented as a physical exhibition. Each June, Basel, Switzerland becomes a meeting point for the global art world, with Art Basel’s flagship fair drawing leading galleries, artists, collectors and institutions to Messe Basel and cultural sites across the city.
From June 18 to 21, this year’s fair brought together 290 galleries from 43 countries and territories presenting works ranging from historical foundations to the most progressive contemporary and digital practices, reaffirming its place at the center of the international art calendar. As the Official Art TV provider of Art Basel, Samsung Electronics presented an experience that connected personal taste with digital curation, showing how Samsung Art Store can bring art discovered at the fair into everyday spaces through screens designed for the home.

A Living Gallery of Personal Aesthetic
Samsung Art Store is a digital art platform on Samsung Art TVs, where users can explore curated works from leading museums, galleries and artists. At Art Basel in Basel (ABB), the Samsung Art Store Lounge translated that experience into a physical exhibition, showing how digital curation can make art discovery more personal.
▲ Through a survey order form, artworks are matched to each visitor’s personal art preferences. The experience began with a short order form. Visitors answered survey questions about what first drew their eye, what they looked for in art and what kind of piece would add meaning in their home. Their responses were scanned through a tablet, then matched to one of four curated themes: Geometric, Surreal, Vibrant or Painterly.
▲ (From left) Custom badges showed each visitor’s art theme, turning their results into a keepsake from the experience. At the center of the lounge was the Art Wall, a gallery-style installation composed of Micro RGB, OLED,1 The Frame Pro and The Frame displays from Samsung’s 2026 Art TV lineup. Once each order form was scanned, the Art Wall displayed artworks from the theme matched to the participant’s results.
“The Frame is so stylish and I loved how clearly you could see the artwork from every angle,” said an attendee.
The experience continued into the Giveaway Zone, where visitors received a custom warranty card and badge tied to their theme. The card playfully certified their art style, while the badge carried the result beyond the Art Wall, sparking conversations around shared tastes, contrasting preferences and the kinds of art guests imagined living with at home.
▲ (From left) Visitors see their personalized art theme appear on Samsung Art TVs inside the lounge. One attendee said, “I was surprised by how well the Vibrant theme matched my taste. The colors looked so rich on the Samsung Art TVs. I could picture one of those pieces bringing so much energy into my home.”
Between visitor sessions, the Art Wall shifted to highlight the city’s artistic identity, previewing Samsung’s new ABB 2026 Collection, curated exclusively for Samsung Art Store. Featuring 24 works by Swiss and Swiss-based artists from eight galleries exhibiting at this year’s fair, the collection offered a regional view of Basel through different generations, styles and ways of seeing.

An Artifact of Time, Framed by Daniel Arsham
As Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, visual artist Daniel Arsham brought one of contemporary art’s most recognizable visual languages to The Frame Pro. Based in New York, Arsham is known for his concept of “fictional archaeology,” creating sculptures, drawings, films and architectural works that imagine present-day objects as relics from the future.
▲ Artist Daniel Arsham, Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, stands with The Frame Pro featuring his custom bezel. In collaboration with Samsung, Arsham created a custom bezel for The Frame Pro that brings his sculptural language to the television frame. Made with stone-like material, the bezel features a raised texture that recalls topographical maps and the erosion patterns seen throughout his work. The surrounding wallpaper was developed from ultra-high-resolution 3D scans of sculptures from Arsham’s studio, enlarging their crystalline and weathered surfaces into an immersive installation around the screen.

To mark his role as Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, Arsham joined visitors at the Samsung Art Store Lounge for a June 17 book signing, giving guests a closer look at his practice and his collaboration with Samsung Art TV.

A Conversation on Discovering Your Artistic Sensibility
Samsung’s Basel story continued, moving from the fair floor to Gare du Nord for a special event, “Art Night with Samsung Art TV.” During the event, invited guests gathered for a conversation about finding art in everyday spaces and how Samsung Art TV brings curatorial instinct into the home.
▲ Daniel Arsham, Karim Crippa and Daria Greene discuss individual preference, art and Samsung Art TV during Art Night with Samsung Art TV. The evening’s talk brought together voices from across art, curation and digital display. Moderated by content creator Daniel Fanslau, Arsham spoke alongside Karim Crippa, Director of Art Basel Paris and Daria Greene, Head of Content and Curation for Samsung Art Store how artistic sensibility is shaped by everyday experiences and how art can be curated, discovered and lived with.
▲ Guests exchange thoughts on personal taste and the artworks they would choose for their own spaces. The conversation returned to a simple idea: art can have a place in the home without losing its presence. Through Samsung Art TV and Samsung Art Store, artistic sensibility becomes something people can choose, display and return to every day.

Samsung Electronics today announced a new global collaboration between Samsung Art Store and Moomins, introducing an exclusive digital art collection featuring the iconic and beloved Moomin characters created by Finnish artist and writer Tove Jansson.
Available on Samsung Art Store, the collection features a curated selection of 60 artworks designed to bring the wonderful world of the Moomins and Moominvalley into millions of homes across the globe via Samsung Art TVs.

With this addition, users can now bring one of the world’s most loved fictional universes into their homes.
“The world of the Moomins has always reminded people of the importance of optimism, togetherness and finding beauty in everyday moments,” said Heeyeong Ahn, Vice President of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “Through Samsung Art Store, we’re excited to bring that feeling into the home through a collection that is as immersive as it is inspiring.”

At the Game Developers Conference (GDC) Festival of Gaming 2026 from March 9-13 in San Francisco at the Moscone Center, developers, technical leaders and industry experts gathered to see how the latest display breakthroughs are reshaping the PC gaming experience.
During the event, Samsung Electronics also showcased its latest Odyssey gaming monitors and technologies at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis. Samsung brought together gaming industry leaders, enthusiasts and media to get a firsthand look at the Odyssey gaming monitor lineup and to play some of the hottest titles on PC, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Hell is Us.
▲ GDC 2026 was held in San Francisco. Running throughout the week, the Samsung Odyssey Gaming Lounge became a playground for PC visuals, complete with groundbreaking demos, unscripted reactions and candid conversations about what comes next for advanced gaming displays.
“Samsung has redefined 3D gaming — the technology is so sharp and crisp.”
— Floyd Broadnax, gaming content creator

Developers See What Glasses-Free 3D Can Do for Gameplay
The centerpiece of the showcase was Odyssey 3D. Using advanced eye-tracking and view-mapping technology, the monitor delivers a glasses-free 4K 3D display that adjusts depth in real time as players move in front of the screen. This delivers a completely new, immersive way to experience gameplay.
Developers, media and partners lined up to try the thriller Hell is Us from Rogue Factor in 3D on the 27-inch Odyssey 3D (G90XF), ahead of its public availability on Samsung’s 3D gaming library.
“Samsung has been the leading force for 3D gaming. I play everything from horror to FPS games, and the technology is really going to enhance my experience.”
— Ashley Rodgers, gaming content creator
Hell is Us drew a large crowd, with excited visitors eager to experience the game’s tight corridors, distant silhouettes and small environmental cues in glasses-free 3D. On Odyssey, visitors said it was easier to read where to go and feel the adrenaline and fear of each encounter without losing the game’s sense of mystery.
▲ The immersive details in Hell is Us on Odyssey 3D blew media away. Cronos: The New Dawn showcased a different side of 3D gaming through a launch trailer. The added depth on screen makes every moment feel more immersive and enhances the player’s sense of scale and atmosphere.
▲ Media got a close-up look at Cronos: The New Dawn on Odyssey 3D. “Samsung knows games and the brains of the developers, and that is something hardware companies don’t often know.”
— Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, Creative Director, Rogue Factor

Next-Generation Displays Draw Attention From Technical Leaders
HDR10+ GAMING quickly became a talking point in the room. Instead of relying on trial-and-error calibration screens, developers watched the game feed send scene-by-scene information to the monitor so highlights, shadows and color stayed closer to what they see in their own builds.
▲ Samsung’s EVP of Customer Experience Kevin Lee welcomes media to the Odyssey Gaming Lounge at GDC 2026. Developers and media also gravitated toward the 32‑inch Odyssey G8 6K (G80HS), testing how higher resolution affects UI and environmental detail. In busy scenes with dense 4K UHD elements, the extra pixels helped keep fine elements sharp without forcing changes to the game’s core art style.
On the 27-inch Odyssey G6 (G60H), the focus shifted to speed. With a 1,040Hz refresh rate, visitors looked at how fast camera pans, aiming and rapid inputs felt onscreen, and what that might mean for future competitive and high-performance titles.
“With our proven track record in hardware and software innovation, we’re partnering with global gaming studios to chart a clear path forward on compatibility. Ultimately, that’s about delivering an exceptional gaming experience our customers deserve.”
— Kevin Lee, EVP of Customer Experience, Visual Display (VD) Business, Samsung Electronics
A separate roundtable brought together leaders from across the industry, including Jakub Knapik, VP of Art and Global Art Director of CD Projekt RED; Yves Bordeleau, Founder and Head of Studio at Rogue Factor; Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, Creative Director at Rogue Factor; Piotr Babieno, Founder and CEO of Bloober Team; and Samsung’s EVP of Customer Experience Kevin Lee.
▲ Panelists Yves Bordeleau, Founder and Head of Studio at Rogue Factor, Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, Creative Director at Rogue Factor, Kevin Lee, Samsung’s EVP of Customer Experience, Jakub Knapik, VP of Art and Global Art Director of CD Projekt RED, and Piotr Babieno, Founder and CEO of Bloober Team, discuss innovations in gaming. Up-and-coming studios spoke about using new display technology to experiment and take creative risks, while larger publishers focused on setting standards that can scale across multiple genres and platforms. The group compared how they roll out new display features across engines and franchises — from integrating HDR10+ GAMING and 3D to deciding which features make sense for competitive games versus story-driven titles.
▲ Jakub Knapik, VP of Art and Global Art Director of CD Projekt RED, showcases Cyberpunk 2077 on the 32-inch Odyssey G8 6K. “I honestly think HDR10+ is a major milestone in color reproduction, one that we’ve all been waiting for. Thanks to it, players will be able to experience our true artistic intent — not to mention a far more immersive high dynamic range.”
— Jakub Knapik, VP of Art and Global Art Director, CD Projekt RED
For industry leaders, seeing their own content firsthand on Odyssey gaming monitors turned abstract specs into real trade-offs they could see and judge on screen. Samsung’s GDC 2026 showcase made it easier to evaluate which combinations of glasses-free 3D, HDR10+ GAMING, resolution and refresh rate will matter most for the games developers are building now.
Samsung’s gaming momentum shows no signs of slowing. With Hell is Us and Cronos: The New Dawn joining a library that already spans 60+ titles, including The First Berserker: Khazan, Stellar Blade and Lies of P: Overture, the company is on track to double its 3D game portfolio to over 120 titles by the end of 2026.
▲ Samsung Odyssey 3D was front and center at the Game Developers Concert on March 10. As developer partnerships deepen and consumer interest accelerates, Samsung is positioned to lead next-generation gaming through its comprehensive suite of monitor technologies, from 3D depth and dynamic HDR10+ GAMING to high-resolution 6K capability.

In addition to 3D gaming technology, Samsung offers HDR10+ GAMING, which delivers optimized HDR performance to each game by automatically analyzing each scene and frame, thereby enhancing immersion. Since 2022, the company has integrated HDR10+ GAMING into its Odyssey gaming monitors and TVs featuring refresh rates above 120Hz.
Samsung has partnered with top video game studio CD PROJEKT RED as part of its commitment to advancing display technology alongside leading developers.
This collaboration will explore how technology can be advanced to increase the immersion of video games for players, and Samsung is already working with CD PROJEKT RED to integrate HDR10+ GAMING into its hit video game Cyberpunk 2077.
Additionally, Samsung announced the expansion of its HDR10+ GAMING partnership with Pearl Abyss. HDR10+ GAMING will be featured in Pearl Abyss’s upcoming open-world action-adventure game Crimson Desert, set to launch in March, ensuring gamers enjoy a premium HDR experience.
