Taipei Fine Arts Museum Introduction
Opened in 1983, it is Taiwan's first contemporary art museum, featuring innovative and vibrant planning of spaces and exhibits that connect the public with art appreciation. The museum includes one basement level and three above-ground floors. The basement primarily hosts exhibitions and competitions for young artists and groups, along with library and dining services. The first floor, aside from the entrance lobby, features a large 6-meter high wall and a spacious area with three-story height, mainly used for significant domestic and international exhibitions. The second floor is dedicated to permanent exhibitions organized by art history structure or themes, showcasing various collections. The third floor, with its bright lighting and intersecting double-cross space, focuses on thematic exhibitions. The building was designed by architects Gao and Pan. In addition to exhibitions, the museum periodically holds seminars and family activities on weekends, creating opportunities for interaction between the museum and the public, thereby bridging the gap between art and life. It now offers Saturday night openings to foster a rich evening atmosphere of art; the museum has also specially enhanced the lighting for the building and outdoor sculptures. The large bronze sculpture "Zhu Ming - Taiji Arch" and the red stainless steel sculpture "Li Zaijuan - Red Do Not Allow" in the square have become beautiful visual focal points along Zhongshan North Road at night.
