A number of art fairs are scheduled to be held in Asia, starting with Art Dubai on 18th March. The art market saw a great lifting the past few years, but has been obstructed by the economic crisis that struck the world at the end of 2008. In November 2008, Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy and sold approximately USD 8,000,000 worth of artworks for primary and due to the long-term economic recess, many collectors are presenting quite a number of large masterpieces at auction houses. When the economy is in recess, collectors turn to art auctions and art fairs instead of galleries to buy artworks at reasonable prices in fair systems. Seoul Auction has recorded 83.6% sales with the total earning of KRW 1.18 billion at its first auction this year. It is a good start. The art citizens of the world are paying attention to the outcomes of Asia’s art fairs.  Hyun Kim

The 1st Taipei / International Contemporary Art Fair “YOUNG ART TAIPEI” is the very first contemporary art fair in Asia that focuses on young artists under the age of 45. This fair aims to serve as a platform for contemporary art in Asia to communicate within the region.

According to statistics proves that one third of the transaction in Sotheby's Hong Kong sale of Asian Contemporary Art is contributed by Taiwanese collectors. This figure shows that Taiwan has become one of the most promising potential markets in Asia for consuming contemporary art pieces. In 2009, we will hold “YOUNG ART TAIPEI” in an attempt to not only integrate the large art collecting and investing force in the market, but also create further connections amongst the art collecting groups in Asia. Due to an open economic policy towards free funding flows and a low 5% business tax, Taipei City, the capital of Taiwan provides a perfect environment and a convenient channel for international galleries to promote their own artists.

Galerie Grand Siècle announces the participation in PULSE MIAMI this year. Being one of the most established galleries in Taiwan, Galerie Grand Siècle aims to promote Young Taiwanese artists to the world. We especially focus on new media arts, doing exhibitions not only in our gallery but also in international art fairs in Europe, USA, and East Asia.

We would like to present 3 artists – Kuo I-Chen, Wang Ya-Hui, Yao Jui-Ching,– and their works in PULSE Miami 2008. The 3 artists are all between 29 and 40 years old. They show their perspective on human existence – especially concerning the co-existence between human being and technology. Kuo I-Chen, the youngest among the all, is fascinated by human destruction and existence of survivors afterward in his <Survivor Project>. In Yao Jui-Chung’s work <Phantom of History>, he dresses himself up as dictators of the past and waves his hands to people from a mountain top from which he hangs himself. He is a representative of Taiwanese artists who born in 1960s, doing works from historical angle to reflect the fact nowadays. Wang Ya-Hui, as a female artist, she often illustrates the environment from her daily life with very poetical images by single channel videos. The 3 of them all demonstrate a new face in Taiwan contemporary art. 

     The cross-cultural interaction is the nourishment of artistic development. We look forward to provide a different glance from the other side of the world to the American audience.

From 2nd until 5th October, 2008 the sixth ART.FAIR 21 presented 59 galleries from 9 countries and 3 continents. The admissions committee had chosen the participating galleries out of over 280 applicants. This fair for current art has become a must for friends and lovers of contemporary art visiting the "Kunstherbst" in the Rhineland. The public's constantly growing interest which reached the highest level this year and again very good sales underlines the fair's successful concept: a lively and exciting combination of well-known and young galleries, and renowned artists and newcomers. Yasha Young from Gallery Strychnin (Berlin, London, New York) and member of the advisory board said: " It is fairs like the ART.FAIR 21 that have become the true measure of the art that permeates society today, of the art that we as gallery owners can bring into society."

"The main focus of the ART.FAIR 21 changes from fair to fair. This year new Asian markets are at the centre, represented by a couple galleries from Korea and Taiwan", said Walter Gehlen, ART.FAIR 21 director. And Michael Schulz from Gallery Michael Schulz (Berlin, Seoul, Beijing) and member of the advisory board added: "The Korean and the German art markets have always been closely connected - the reunification of ART.FAIR 21 is a consistent and logical development of recent years. More and more Korean artists are represented by German galleries. The Korean counterparts are not only looking forward to positive business accounts, but also to the placement of their artists in German galleries and museums."

Four galleries from Taiwan and six galleries from Korea presented a mixture of established and upcoming artists at the ART.FAIR 21. From Seoul for example KEUMSAN GALLERY showcased among others digital-prints from Kim Joon's ‘bird land' series and THE HODU GALLERY presented a solo-show by the artist D Hwang. How multifaceted Korean art is became obvious by visiting GALLERY 2 which exhibited the colourful paintings by the well-known artist Lee Dongi, PHILIP KANG GALLERY with the keyboard-on-panel art by Kim Young Seok, KWANHOON GALLERY which showed among others paintings by Lee Dongjo or GALERIE DE LEE with paintings by Hong Kyong-Tack.

This year new Asian markets are at the centre of the sixth ART.FAIR 21: From 2 to 5 October four galleries from Taiwan and six galleries from Korea will be presented among 59 other exhibitors. This fair for current art has become a must for friends and lovers of contemporary art visiting the “Kunstherbst” in the Rhineland. 30,000 visitors attended the ART.FAIR 21 last year. The public’s constantly growing interest and last year’s record sales underline the fair’s successful concept: a lively and exciting combination of well-known and young galleries, and renowned artists and newcomers.
This year the advisory board and the fair’s management encouraged exhibitors to stage solo presentations. Consequently one man shows have developed as an individual presentation format. In some cases, works will be shown in very large exhibiting areas thus breaking up the customary rhythm of serial booths in favour of an open and dynamic picture. On the whole, the reserved booths’ sizes show the gallerists` great satisfaction with the fair’s concept – over fifty percent measure between 150m² and 70m². After a thorough selection by the admissions committee, ART.FAIR 21 will present 59 galleries from 9 countries and 3 continents out of over 280 applicants. A top-rate interdisciplinary event programme consisting of music/video, performance and dance/theatre will add to the already vibrant spirit which makes ART.FAIR 21 a lucrative and up-to-date market place for 21st century art.

Huang Hsin-Chien's Artwork of 7th Shanghai Biennale


Shanghai, Shall We Dance?︱interactive installation︱variable dimensions︱2008


Huang Hsinchien's work, Shanghai, Shall We Dance? tells a story in the public space of the Shanghai Museum of Art by turning an art hall into a place of relaxation and romantic dancing for ordinary people. Viewers are invited onto a typical Shanghainese dance floor for a spontaneous dance. The interactive nature of the work turns images of foreboding highrise buildings into images of visitors dancing together. The appearance of the buildings changes with the dancers body movements. City residents are used to urban space being segmented by buildings. However, this perception is questioned and inverted in this work, which guides viewers to rethink the nature of urban space and its causal relationship with their own actions from their own individual perspectives.
——Zhang Qing

Galerie Grand Siècle at ART TAIPEI 2008
Wang Ya-Hui, Kuo I-Chen, Chen Yung-Hsien, and Sam Su (Su Yu-Hsien).

Established in 1999, Galerie Grand Siècle is proud to be one of the established galleries in Taiwan promoting young and emerging artists.  In its early stage, Galerie Grand Siècle focuses more on Chinese modern and contemporary artists.  Since 2005, however, our emphasis has been gradually switched to young Taiwanese artists working on new-media art.  While Galerie Grand Siècle is about to celebrate its tenth anniversary, ART TAIPEI 2008, for the first time, coincidently targets new-media art as its annual theme <Art and Tech – Wandering>.  Echoing the theme, this year Galerie Grand Siècle is demonstrating the recent works of three presented new-media artists: Wang Ya-Hui, Kuo I-Chen, and Chen Yung-Hsien.  We also invite Sam Su (Su Yu-Hsien), an emerging artist who is still a student in the Graduate Institute of Plastic Arts at Tainan National University of the Arts, to exhibit his awarded work <Identify A Fine to Touch to Press to Feel> (2007 Taipei Art Prize).  Four artists will definitely bring you to the world where you can wander among the various façades of digital images. 

Viewers are probably familiar with the detachedness in Wang Ya-Hui’s previous works. In the past two years, she has adopted some natural elements to capture the transformation between the perception of viewers and the representation of the outer world.  At Art Taipei 2008, Wang Ya-Hui again fabricates a moon and a snowman.  In <When I look at the Moon>, we experience the breaking between our cognition and our perception while the “moon” is released in the final scene.  Also, <The Tropical Work: Snowman> provides an interesting comparison when a snowman is placed at the tropical coast in the southern part of Taiwan, where snow can be impossibly seen.  Such a comparison perfectly demonstrates a juxtaposition between the familiar images and the unfamiliar scenery. 

Since Kuo I-Chen’s solo exhibition <Mutation> in 2007, the exhibited work <Survivor Project> has received frequent invitations overseas.  In the project, Kuo desires to bring out a discussion on how the upheaval in our living space threatens the survival of human beings to the extent that there is nothing but uneasiness in our psychological status.  Kuo retrieves images from a number of calamities in the human history, including the 911, the 2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake and the tsunami triggered by it, the hurricane Katrina, the Iraq War, air crash, earthquake, etc.  Through the reconstruction of the images, he created an eschatological scene which seems to be out of place in real life.  Meanwhile, the visible film grains caused by intended low dpi subtly brings a surrealistic touch to the artwork as if it is a reshooting site of a Hollywood movie.  The exploration rover <Survivor> in the work wanders about the abandoned ruins – where human beings have once inhabited – to search for the sole faith in life.  A trace of "I'm Still Here" in the devastation thus manifests a past/future parable of survival.

Chen Yung-Hsien has been fascinated by the representation of human bodies for a long time.  In his latest work <Man in A Loop>, he starts from his personal experience to observe and to intervene the physical reaction of others.  He further meditates the interrelation between the body of his own and the bodies of others, trying to locate the “present” with mechanical time and artificial loop and to explore the tiny but noticeable loop of physical motion in our daily life.  By the tracing the deviation caused by intermittence, pause, and elongation, Chen allows viewers to detect the hidden outlet in the loop.

As the youngest artist presented by Galerie Grand Siècle at Art Taipei 2008, Sam Su is recently selected to be the residing artist in Gwangju Museum of Arts.  The 2007 Taipei Arts Award prizewinner <Identify A Fine to Touch to Press to Feel> is inspired by medical illustration.  Sam Su turns the stomach into a heart-shape image.  The teeth are also braced with sparkling diamond.  In Su’s work, viewers are invited into a world where the emotionless medical illustration is revitalized with fashionable visual symbols.  With such a technique – the so-called “micro-high artificial limb” – Su successfully adopts the adjusted rationality to capture sensibility.

　　The attraction of Art Taipei is Chinese arts. Art Taipei is the most experienced and professional art fair trading Chinese arts.

After 2000, with the open policy betw een Taiwan and China, galleries form China and Hong Kong have increased and Art Taipei now is truly the most important platform for Chinese arts.

A professional art fair in presenting Asian art creation.

　　Art Taipei is also well known because of our foresight. From 2004, “Artist of the Year “ and “Taiwan Young Artists Special Exhibitions” projects not only bring great art into Taiwan but also push Taiwan emerging artists into international stage. In Art Taipei 2006, two new sectors “Asia Live” and “Ela-Aisa” focus more on contemporary and electronic arts.
Through these pioneering projects, we guarantee Art Taipei a professional art fair in presenting Asian art creation as well as the best venue for trading Asian arts.

The best collectors in Chinese community.

　　Taiwan art market has been mature sine 1980’s. Taiwan collectors have been brought up from this established environment, and now they are the best collectors in Chinese community. To serve these collectors is our first mission. It is also the power to make Art Taipei improved and transformed into a contemporary art fair.
