    Vanguards of an emerging identity: a century of artistic power at the Taiwan Cultural Association in Taichung


Abstract

"Founded by Chiang Wei-shui (Jiang Weishui / 蔣渭水) in 1921, the Taiwan Cultural Association (TCA) not only laid the groundwork for Taiwan's century-old art, music and literary scene, but also played a role in forging Taiwan's national identity, having profoundly impacted Taiwan's cultural development. With the aim of highlighting Taiwan's cultural identity, the exhibition will explore Taiwan's century-old fine arts movement through the cultural enlightenment inspired by the TCA's establishment as well as Taiwan's art history starting from the Japanese rule era to post-WWII years, focusing especially on the geographical relationship of Taichung. The artists whose works are on display include Li Shih-chiao (Li Shiqiao / 李石樵), Chen Zhi-qi (Chen Zhiqi / 陳植棋), Chen Cheng-po (Chen Chengbo / 陳澄波), Yen Shui-long (Yan Shuilong / 顏水龍), Kuo Hsueh-hu (Guo Xuehu / 郭雪湖), Yang Chi-tung (Yang Qidong / 楊啟東), Lin Yu-shan (Lin Yushan / 林玉山), Li Mei-shu (Li Meishu / 李梅樹) and Lin Chih-chu (Lin Zhizhu / 林之助) among others."--Provided by publisher.
