International Conference of the Curators’ Intensive Taipei 24

An international forum series centred on contemporary curatorial discourse, bringing together curators from around the world to explore curating as a method of knowledge production and cultural critique. Taking the pressing questions of the post-globalisation era as its axis, the forum deepens local curatorial education while building a cross-regional field for critical dialogue.

Soundtraces

An archive of Taiwan's modern sound culture, tracing its history from the 1910s to the present through a timeline that spans the music industry, underground music, sound art, and the evolution of performance spaces. The project takes "reverberation" and "noise" as epistemological models, examining the cultural characteristics and social transformations of successive eras — from Japanese colonial rule and martial law through post-martial law opening to globalisation.

Art and Society Research Project

Initiated in 2009, this research project focuses on critical and politically engaged artistic practices and curatorial thinking, working to reexamine the role and significance of art's intervention in contemporary society. The project builds a database of contemporary art, publishes artist essays and interviews, and through seminars and research inquires into what distinguishes socially engaged art-making from conventional exhibition formats.
