In the spirit of the NSP\, the TAEF aims to promote comprehensive ties between Taiwan and the ASEAN countries\, South Asian countries\, as well as Australia and New Zealand through facilitating cooperation and exchanges in five major fields – think tanks\, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and civil society’s connectivity\, young leaders initiatives\, regional resilience\, and cultural affairs – to consolidate a sense of regional community in Asia and establish long-term multifaceted partnerships. \nTaiwan Art Space Alliance \, (hereinafter “TASA”) entitled TASA was established in 2016. It integrates dozens of art villages and art spaces across Taiwan and holds regular meetings every year across Taiwan to discuss the position and role of artists in residence (AiR) in contemporary art through an annual series of meetings and lectures. TASA was to serve as a platform for the exchange and integration of resources among artists in residence (AiR) and art spaces throughout Taiwan. In addition\, by connecting organizations and planning events\, TASA endeavors to improve and strengthen the overall environment for art and culture in Taiwan\, while attracting new energy in promoting international cooperation and expanding the global network among art institutions. \nOur Partner: \nMekong Cultural Hub (MCH)\, MCH’ s mission is to empower diverse cultural practitioners to bring their visions for an inclusive\, sustainable Mekong Region to life. Since 2018\, we have connected more than 150 practitioners from the region for professional exchange\, co-creation and collaboration. \nMCH works with people whose own work is at the intersection of arts and society. We initiate projects and work on collaborations all around Asia. Our priority focus countries are Cambodia\, Laos\, Myanmar\, Taiwan\, Thailand and Vietnam. \nIts aim is to develop and connect resources and experience from across the region\, building bridges and creating spaces for reflection and innovation so emerging artists and arts leaders can collectively create\, influence\, and transform the contexts in which they are living and working. \nHost for the Program: \nHyper Wave (Yilan 宜蘭)\, which is Located in the center of Luodong City\, Wave Space is the first contemporary art exhibition and residency space in Yilan. They hope to inject more art and cultural energy\, open up Yilan’s international connections\, and bring in outstanding artists from home and abroad so that more people will recognize Yilan’s Luodong’s unique humanistic flavor. The art group ‘Hyper Wave’ began with artists selected by the Ministry of Culture’s 2020 ‘MIT’ project. The name originates from the mutation and uncertainty of contemporary art\, positioning themselves as artistic ronin. They place the characteristics of contemporary art creation within environments to engage in artistic dialogues. \nSupported by: \nMinistry of Culture \nMinistry of Foreign Affairs \nNational Culture and Arts Foundation \n
