Experience a Captivating Fusion of Art and Technology as Steven Harrington’s
Whimsical Pop Art Comes to Life on LG’s Most Advanced TVs for 2025
SEOUL, May 7, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is partnering with iconic psychedelic pop artist and LA 2028 Olympics logo designer Steven Harrington at Frieze New York 2025 for the “Steven Harrington X LG OLED: Stop to Smell the Flowers” exhibition, showcasing the artist’s dynamically vivid artwork on LG’s latest and most premium OLED TVs. This collaboration highlights the visual excellence and vibrant colors of LG’s newest OLED lineup, including the transparent LG SIGNATURE OLED T – bringing the kinetic energy of Harrington’s California-inspired work to life for a truly immersive digital art experience.
Known for his vibrant and immersive psychedelic pop art, Harrington joins forces with LG to demonstrate the strengths of OLED technology, including perfect blacks and vivid colors.* Harrington chose LG OLED as his digital canvas, citing the display’s ability to faithfully capture his artistic vision through exceptional color reproduction and design innovation. Together, they have created a whimsical exhibition at Frieze, highlighting the unique qualities of both the artist’s work and LG’s technology.
Visitors to the exhibition will meet Mello, one of Harrington’s signature characters who embodies the joy of everyday moments and creativity – brought to life on the advanced LG SIGNATURE OLED T transparent TV. Mello playfully waves to the audience against an opaque floral backdrop. As he invites the audience to come closer, the flowers fall away, revealing a transparent screen where they can step behind to take a picture with Mello. This dynamic transition between opaque and transparent screens offers a surreal, AR-like experience for exhibition-goers.
Set against a muted black and grey background, LG OLED screens amplify the brilliance of Harrington’s vibrant imagery. The exhibition features the new LG OLED evo M5 and G5 models, along with the LG StanbyME 2 TVs – all displaying Harrington’s colorful works, with Mello seamlessly moving in and out of the screens. The M5 highlights its wireless capabilities for a clutter-free setup, while the G5 boasts its exceptional self-lit technology for stunning visuals with deep blacks. The soon-to-be-launched StanbyME 2 is one of the most versatile portable lifestyle TVs, adaptable for various settings – whether wall-mounted, propped up or placed on a stand.
“This collaboration has opened up new avenues in my art as I got to be one of the first artists to work with the LG OLED transparent TV,” said Harrington.
“LG’s OLED TV is the ultimate digital canvas, delivering rich blacks and maximizing depth and realism with precise color expression,” said Kate Oh, vice president of experiential marketing at LG Electronics. “We are excited to collaborate with bold artists like Steven Harrington, whose unique style aligns perfectly with LG OLED’s mission to inspire art and connect people through innovative digital experiences.”
Visitors to Frieze New York 2025 can experience LG’s latest OLED TVs and Harrington’s artwork from May 7 to 11 at The Shed.
Recognized by artists worldwide as the ultimate digital canvas, LG OLED continues to merge cutting-edge technology with contemporary art through various cultural initiatives. The Frieze NY exhibition marks the first showcase of the SIGNATURE OLED T since its U.S. launch last December. This premium display offers stunning visuals with unparalleled clarity and seamlessly integrates into any environment. Following Frieze, LG will partner with Italian design brand Kartell to display the SIGNATURE OLED T at Kartell’s New York flagship store – building on their successful partnership at CES 2025, where LG’s transparent TV was paired with Kartell’s iconic transparent furniture. Additionally, LG will work with Ayoung Kim, trailblazing digital artist and the third recipient of the LG Guggenheim Award, for an upcoming exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum.

We have a 65" G1 OLED set. Lately (like the past couple of months), at irregular intervals while the set is on, it will power itself down without any input from the remote. Happens maybe once every two or three days. Powering it on again using the remote always brings it back to life OK. Unsure whether this is a hardware or software problem, and can't see how I could determine whether it's one or the other. Any suggestions? The TV is current with whatever the lastest level of FW is - I just checked in settings and was told there were no updates available.

Recognition Highlights Company’s Commitment to Environmental Responsibility and
Carbon Reduction for a Better Life for All
SEOUL, April 9, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) has once again been recognized for its dedication to sustainability and eco-conscious initiatives, securing globally recognized eco-certifications for its 2025 OLED TVs. These achievements reaffirm LG’s commitment to environmental responsibility and the development of advanced products that contribute to a more sustainable world while reducing its carbon footprint.
For the fifth consecutive year, LG OLED evo TVs have received Reducing CO21 and Measured CO22 certifications from the Carbon Trust,3 a global climate consultancy advancing a zero-carbon future. These certifications evaluate a product’s environmental impact, including carbon emissions, throughout its entire life cycle – from manufacturing and distribution to usage and disposal.
LG OLED TVs excel in these rigorous assessments due to their self-emissive technology, which eliminates the need for a backlight, reducing component count and overall material use. Furthermore, LG OLED TVs incorporate ultra-light composite fiber materials, reducing weight and plastic use. For example, LG’s 65-inch OLED evo TV is 20 percent lighter than conventional LCD TVs of the same size and uses 60 percent less plastic.
As a result, LG anticipates reducing plastic consumption in OLED TV production by approximately 16,000 tons in 2025 compared to an equivalent number of LCD TVs. The company also expects to lower carbon emissions by 84,000 tons across manufacturing and transportation – equivalent to the CO2 absorbed annually by a 30-year-old pine forest the size of 11,000 football fields.
New for 2025, LG’s latest OLED TVs have earned Resource Efficiency certification4 from Intertek, a globally recognized testing and certification body. This certification follows a thorough assessment of material efficiency – covering recyclable design, reduced use of harmful substances and ease of repair – as well as energy efficiency and the incorporation of recycled plastics. By meeting these stringent standards, LG’s commitment to sustainability has been formally recognized, highlighting its dedication to environmentally responsible design.
In 2024, LG incorporated approximately 30 percent recycled plastic in the production of the company’s TVs, recycling around 6,300 tons of waste plastic. In 2025, the company plans to increase its use of recycled plastic to 50 percent, expecting to recycle approximately 7,700 tons of waste plastic annually.
“With a strong commitment to sustainability, LG OLED TVs provide exceptional picture quality and advanced AI features within an eco-conscious design that minimizes carbon footprint throughout the product lifecycle,” said Baik Seon-pill, head of Product Planning Division at the LG Media Solution Company. “Innovation and environmental responsibility go hand in hand, and we remain dedicated to protecting the planet while supporting a better life for all.”

SEOUL, March 14, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) continues to solidify its leadership in 6G communications, a transformative technology poised to shape the future of connectivity.
Kim Lae-young, Senior Research Engineer at LG’s CTO Office, has been appointed Vice Chair of the Service and System Aspects (SA) plenary at the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), the global authority on mobile communications standards. The SA plenary plays a pivotal role in defining 5G and 6G system architectures, service scenarios, requirements and security mechanisms. It also drives the evolution of 5G-Advanced and the standardization of next-generation 6G technologies.
This appointment underscores LG’s expertise in communications protocols and system architecture.

With this latest leadership role, LG aims to accelerate 6G research and development while actively contributing to global standardization efforts. 6G technology – enabling ultra-fast, low-latency and AI-integrated communication – will be crucial to LG’s future innovations in AI-powered smart homes, mobility and smart factories.
LG has been at the forefront of 6G research, driving innovation through strategic partnerships and pioneering initiatives. In 2019, it established Korea’s first dedicated 6G academic research center, the LG-KAIST 6G Research Center. To further accelerate advancements, LG has built a robust R&D network with leading institutions, including Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute and Korea’s Research Institute of Standards and Science, strengthening the development of core technologies. Since 2022, LG has also hosted the 6G Grand Summit, a global forum that brings together experts to shape the future of next-generation connectivity.
LG’s advancements in 6G technology have earned global recognition. In 2022, the company successfully carried out the world’s longest outdoor terahertz (THz) wireless data transmission, covering 500 meters in an urban setting. Additionally, LG is working closely with partners to validate Advanced Duplex wireless communication technology, a potential cornerstone of future 6G standards.
“We are committed to advancing next-generation technologies to reinforce our leadership in the 6G communications ecosystem and enhance our global competitiveness,” said Je Yeong-ho, head of LG’s C&M Standard Lab.
