特別策展 Special Project :

M I C R O C L I M A T E     微_氣候

微氣候(Microclimate),科學上乃是指因拓蹼地形、水體分佈等因素,在一個細小範圍內與周邊整體環境氣候有異的現象。或許微氣候也像這群年輕的台灣藝術家,在同樣的一片土地上耕耘創作,卻因著自身的雙眼、心靈與想像力,變化與繾綣出一片獨樹一幟的生機盎然。而「M I T」(Made in Taiwan 台灣製造) 三字,也巧妙地錯落鑲嵌在此單字中,象徵我們對於這群台灣新秀藝術家深刻的期待。

微氣候的珍貴在於其獨立、特殊卻仍與整片土地緊密連結 - - 一如這群年輕的「M I T」藝術家,不論是在媒材、概念、或是藝術表現上,其獨具的原創性仍回歸到與成長背景相繫的情感與記憶。微氣候藝術家既向內深挖也向外探索,以慧眼切剖出一方創意的地形肌理、以匠心匯聚成一畦藝術的泉源活水,如此的拓樸與水體提供了微氣候之生成條件,一美好小宇宙隨之翻轉而成,安靜而自信地展示於世人面前。

In scientific definition, microclimate is a local atmospheric zone where, due to topography or the existence of water body, the climate differs from the general condition in the area.  Perhaps the concept of microclimate echoes with the artistic process of the nine Taiwanese emerging artists.  Each of them grew up, dwell in and draw inspirations from the Island; however, with the artists’ own creative eyes and imaginative minds, they all have created a little luxuriant universe that is one of a kind.  Moreover, a light-hearted reference to “MIT (Made in Taiwan)” is hidden in between the letters, suggesting the nickname that Taiwan is known to the international public.

What makes microclimate precious is that it is independent, unique while it is still intimately connected to the same piece of land.  Galerie Grand Siècle is pleased to present nine emerging Taiwanese artists together, each of whom has a very different approach to the materials employed in artistic creation.  Ranging from painting to sculpture, installation to video, we sincerely look forward to bringing the Japanese audience some flavour of the vitality in Taiwanese art scene.
