Overview

Trading Place: Contemporary Art Museum is basically
a conceptual exhibition as well as a visualized exhibition
of discourse. Participating artists start off from curator's discourse - what is a "contemporary art museum?" by questioning the nature of contemporary, generation, aesthetics, technique, and institution, and then using methods of stealing, replacing, trading, exchange and representation to create hypothetical events and activities that could happen in today's contemporary art world.


Entering Trading Place: Contemporary Art Museum, you
will find yourself confronted with critical thought about
post-modern art history. Artists abstract elements from
eastern and western modern art history and contemporary art in Taiwan to advert an ever extending and reproducing concept about clone and virtuality of a virtual museum in a real museum body. This exhibition will bring you into a world of the emotions and production of artists/art, the relations of art and commodity, and the contemporary art perspectives of seeing. It is also a forum where perspectives of passion, humor and self-sarcasm meet and voice, as well as

a stage show in which you will notice the partiality, visibility/invisibility, and on/off stage stories of the art world.
