| The hybrid identity of Taiwan is its unique quality, but it is the same complexity that also poses a string of challenges for the largely unrecognised nation-state and its meeting with the international art scene. Concurrently, a storm of geopolitical tension brews over the island, which further overshadows important nuances. In the midst of the eye, a generation of trailblazing artists navigates the art scene that mirrors the dynamics and multifariousness of an island nation in flux, superseding cultural barriers, carving out interstice, and maintaining the continuous progression of identity. To grasp some of these powerful whirlwinds, Copenhagen-based art association Tofu Collective and Taipeibased publishing house dmp editions has followed a diverse array of exceptional artists into the epicentre of Taiwanâ s contemporary art scene. Typhoon â In the Eye of Taiwanâ s New Artistic Whirlwinds airs an eclectic capture of the streams that flow, intersect, and diverge within the many layers of Taiwanese art circles, through diverse portrayals of both promising younger artists and heavyweight practitioners. From inside and outside perspectives, we move through the sheer depth and variety of identities, fluctuating between an abundance of dichotomies, between local and global, natural and artificial, body and mind, past and future. |
