朋友們，

台新銀行文化藝術基金會提名『馴國』做為第十八屆台新藝術獎的年度名單。此提名象徵『馴國』被視為台灣視覺藝術展演於2019的一個亮點。目前台新獎網站上已經有所有最終入圍作品的訪談可供瀏覽。提名委員之一的鄭文琦所撰寫的評論之英文版也已上線。由北美館出版的『馴國』展覽專書目前已可在柏林、紐約、北京等多地購入。

七月，將與亞紀畫廊呈現兩個計畫。其一，實體展覽『古今一：超越』將把古物重新帶入當代的語境與審美中，探尋它們在當代藝術與年輕視角中的共鳴。其二，順應疫情局勢，亞紀畫廊將推出線上策展單元，包含「Debris」系列於2020年的最新發展——以在柏林生活經驗為發想的「Week (Landsberger Allee) 」。

同月，線上藝術平台YiCollecta精選「Debris」以及「數位風化」系列中數件早期小品於線上展出。

最後，7/11於台北當代藝術中心將放映<格拉夫拉特：牧犬傳>以及<狗匠>這兩部作品，此36小時藝術家電影院由李彥儀策劃，請在此查看放映片單。

祝健康

權倫
