Atelier Talk | Doug Aitken Solo Exhibition Opening

Introduction

With the promotion of contemporary art as a core concept, the atelier hopes to bring more avant-garde elements to the city.

The atelier will open on 13 July 2019 on the works of the American contemporary artist Doug Aitken. In the future, different international contemporary art works are planned to be replaced every two months, with each theme opening a dialogue on space, architecture, society and aesthetics. The Winsing Arts Foundation has long sponsored art projects, spaces and events such as the Taipei Museum of Contemporary Art and the National Cultural and Arts Foundation. We focus on art and support the development of contemporary art in Taiwan. Contemporary art is rooted in life, life and space, and the inseparability of space and society. In this space, we will see the current situation of society from different angles, reflecting reality in a new way, allowing the atelier at Winsing Art Place to bring more diverse international perspectives and connections to this city.

Doug Aitken is a contemporary art creator from the United States, known for installation art, photography, sculpture, and performance. He explores a variety of mediums, from film to installation to architecture, regardless of genre definition. In 2017, Doug Aitken became the first winner of the Frontier Art Prize, a new contemporary art award designed to encourage artists to engage in bold works and challenge the boundaries of knowledge and experience to reimagine the humanity of the future.
