「擁抱」(Embrace),是《粉樂町》2014年的正向生活關鍵詞。今年度選擇以動態詞彙為主張,象徵「行動」在粉樂町展覽內所扮演的關鍵力,也意指「親身在場」的重要意涵。

多年來策展團隊隨著粉樂町版圖,不分寒暑,穿梭在臺北東區大街小巷、推開逐扇門戶,藉由與商店合作理解社區經濟和潮流更替;廣探城市閒置的土地使用,以瞭解在地歷史和都市未來藍圖;親訪里民住戶亦如傳教士般與其細細對話,分享藝術何以啟動生活內各種美好的可能。粉樂町構築起人際流動的平臺,讓城市有了話題,也將群眾記憶與共同的故事帶入街區,這是在藝術之外,《粉樂町》仍所以獨特迷人的特質。

「擁抱」是《2014粉樂町》給予城市的行動,它意指開放、也是接納,是毫無防備的包含、不帶主見的欣然接受,也是支持與鼓勵、開放心胸面對向外視野的態度;它是藉由行動揚起溫潤的情緒感染力,並以此串聯人際溫暖的互動交流。不僅是擁抱於歡笑之際,我們也擁抱迎前而來的危機和恐懼、那些持著相反意見的質疑與猜忌、還有種種超越我們既定習慣與想像疆域之外的事物。擁抱著這些挑戰,反倒引領我們成為心靈更加強大而自由的勇者。

Happy Birthday, Taipei People ! (2014) by Sheung-Chuen PAKFubon Art Foundation

像一座每個夏季在臺北城東落點的臨時性移動美術館。

依街區特性安排各展出空間,或聚合、或分散的規劃出適合步行腳程的藝術地圖,年覆一年帶領觀眾在城市漫行。往年,《粉樂町》展覽範圍多以忠孝東四段與敦化南路一段之十字腹地為範疇,空間類型由咖啡廳、服飾店、行道路樹、企業空間、髮廊、書店、廣場…等日常生活與消費場域為主,並探尋都市內少見之閒置與臨時使用空間,將其轉化為當代藝術展場。2014年《粉樂町》除了仍持續經營街區巷弄的美學經驗以外,更擴增場域,以濃縮而凝聚的形式,將松山文創園區增設為其中一處焦點展域,包含古蹟、商場等空間共計囊括近20處展點。

French artist Séverin Millet is a master of creativity, making art that transcends a simple surface to a three-dimensional realm, with The Composites being his most representative sculptural artwork by far.

With a variety of designs and personalities, The Composite at first glance seems to reference African Fetish and Kachina dolls. Each doll has its own personality and individual character, yet all live together in a colorful and exciting world.
