Art Taichung 2022

art taichung website

Art has been a fundamental essence of Taichung for an extensive period of time. With the inauguration of the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts in 1988, an environment to appreciate a diverse array of art has since been opened to the general public. Other cultural and art activities have also been actively taking place in the city, with large areas of natural green zones created through fantastic urban planning which also works well with Taichung’s pleasant weather. Cultural commercial areas are interlaced with luscious trees and other vegetation, blending together areas that the city’s residents can enjoy in their everyday lives, as Taichung continues to be selected on several occasions as the most livable city in Taiwan.

Departing from the deep-rooted progress made in the past fives years, the 10th ART TAICHUNG 2022 will take place this year from July  15th to 17th at the The Lin Hotel Taichung. The overarching theme of this year is Perceptual Dimensions: Sculptures in the City, which will focus on how to elevate a city’s aesthetic sense and how to redefine a city’s ethos and ideology. By expanding the art collector demographic and invigorating the art market, ART TAICHUNG 2022 aims at creating a distinctive international art event in Taiwan. Bringing together 77 exhibitors, including 69 Taiwanese galleries, 5 overseas galleries, and 4 youth awards. More than 500 artists and 3,000 splendid artistic creations from home and abroad will be presented in the brand-new location – the 8th to 11th floors of the Lin Hotel in Taichung (the 7th floor is the ticket office and the conference service desk), and the exhibition will be more popular with a novel online exhibition hall preview.

The online exhibition hall has been officially opened at 10:00 am on July 6, 2022 (Wednesday), and the exhibition hall will be open until 7/19 (Tue) 23:59. The public is sincerely invited to use an innovative online method – ART TAICHUNG 2022 x Non-Chizhong Art Online Exhibition Hall OVR, visit the wonderful works of participating artists at Art Taichung!

Nicolás Romero

Nicolas Romero 彩色1 1

Nicolás Romero began twenty years ago signing and doing graffiti in the streets of his native Buenos Aires, a city that was living the hangover of a military dictatorship that had lasted eight years and that at that time understood street art as an expression of freedom. He moved away from graffiti to start developing a mural work with which he experiments and plays with its symbolic charge in his confrontation with public space.

At present, Nicolás is developing his work around the “Dead Natures”, with which through the union of elements he has found a way to use the image as a means of social reflection and anthropological research. He works through traces that he finds in his most immediate context, the result of the social network and symbols born from the coexistence of social, cultural and economic factors. From soft drink bottles to religious prints, political symbols, contemporary icons or something as apparently innocent as fruits and vegetables are part of these compositions that he uses as a bridge to talk about more complex realities.
