【2016街大歡囍─當代 X 社區藝術節】

 

Street Fun, Fun Street – MOCA X Community Art Festival, 2016

 

 

 

台北當代藝術館自2009年起，陸續策劃了一系列藝術進入社區的展覽活動，期盼透過走出美術館的圍牆，讓大眾在日常生活中與藝術自然不期相遇。從【南西當紅‧中山印象】系列展覽，到每年中秋佳節前後固定舉辦的【街大歡囍】社區藝術節，六年來與社區居民密切的互動與合作，也間接促進中山雙連街區成為台北文創新據點。

 

Since 2009, the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Taipei has organized a series of exhibitions that brought art into the neighboring communities, hoping to step out of the museum walls and let the general public encounter and experience art in their living environment. From a series of exhibitions, titled Vision of Tatong, to Street Fun, Fun Street Community Art Festival held annually around the time of the Moon Festival, MOCA, Taipei has been closely interacting and collaborating with the community residents, turning Chifeng Street into an innovative site of creativity and culture in Taipei.

 

 

 

今年【2016街大歡囍】當代X街區藝術節，透過「藝術萌芽」、「藝術漫步」、「藝遊巷弄」等三個在社區空間裡相互關聯的子計畫，交織出秋高氣爽時節的巷弄美景。「藝術漫步」計畫中，邀請到九組台灣年輕藝術家團隊，將他們對當代館周邊社區公共空間的細微觀察，以及研究在地居民與參觀群眾間的交互反應，轉化為參與式互動體驗、動力裝置、攝影創作、複合媒材雕塑及插畫，以及社區人物誌等多元形式呈現，帶領觀眾以多重視角與動態互動的途徑來認識/體驗當代館附近社區固有的生活質感與新生的文創空間，在社區裡悠閒地散步，讓藝術迎面而來。

 

This year’s Street Fun, Fun Street – MOCA X Community Art Festival is comprised of three community-based subprojects respectively called “Art Buds,” “Art Wandering,” and “Street Journey,” interweaving a delightful, aesthetic landscape of the lanes and alleyways in the cool, crisp Fall season. Nine Taiwanese young artists are invited for “Art Wandering.” By subtle observation of the public spaces in the communities around MOCA Taipei, and studies on the interactions between local residents and visiting audience, the artists create various artworks, including participatory projects, kinetic installations, photos, mixed media sculptures, drawings, and biographical zines. Their works guide the audience to learn about and experience the characteristics of a community-based lifestyle and the newly created cultural spaces. Taking a walk in the community, art will be just around the corner.

 

 

 

「藝術萌芽」計畫旨在強化藝術創作與社區居民參與之間的互動關係，今年邀請到小山舍團隊，帶領社區居民認識與體驗城市中人與植物的共生共存，在暑期課程結束後，於社區空間中展出屬於居民共同的創作。「藝遊巷弄」計畫是以社區藝術合作教育活動為主軸，經由多重主題與跨界結合的午後藝術日活動、教育體驗活動與走街導覽講座等，帶領民眾深入認識社區開放空間，以實際的參與、經驗的分享以及引導式的體驗來了解藝術與社區空間的交互作用。

 

“Art Buds” aims to enhance the ability of artistic creation and the interaction with the participating community residents. We invited M. House Studio this year to guide the community residents to learn about and experience the co-existence between human and plant in the city. After the summer classes, the works created collectively by the residents will be displayed in the community space. “Street Journey” focuses on educational activities with the community. The experiential activities in various themes and divers disciplines, together with afternoon art events,  guided tour and workshops, bring the audience to know more deeply about the public spaces in the community. By actual participation, experience sharing, and  guided experience, the audience could learn how art interact with community mutually.
