2025年,暮拉多元藝術空間提出「觀察者的身影」作為參與台中藝術博覽會的策展主題,其構想概念源自藝評家 強納森‧柯拉瑞 (Jonathan Crary) 的《觀察者的技術》(Techniques of the Observer) 一書。思考藝術家同時作為一位具有獨特視角的觀察者,不僅透過媒材來轉譯表達思想,也同步標示出觀察者主體位置的多重性,及其所連動的詮釋技術與文化議題。
In 2025, the Moolah Multi-Art Space proposed "Figure of the Observer” as the curatorial theme for participating in the Art Taichung. The concept was derived from the book "Techniques of the Observer" by art critic Jonathan Crary. Thinking about the artist as an observer with unique perspectives. They translate and express ideas through media and simultaneously indicate the multiplicity of the observer's subject position and the associated interpretation techniques and cultural issues.
How to find the possibility of dialogue among the multiple figures presented by the artists? Through the five artists invited this time, you will find that creation is not a single-dimensional thinking of painting, sculpture, printmaking and images, but a comprehensive cross-domain expression. Here, we can not only see the artist's breakthroughs and challenges in formal language and knowledge structure, but also open up a more three-dimensional reading experience through the production and organization of multiple perspectives.
