The second Taipei Art District Festival 2015 organized by Taiwan Art Gallery Association takes place in more than 20 galleries based in Taipei Art District and exhibits up to 30 artists. Curator Luo He-Lin has chosen “Sleepless Dwelling” as a curatorial concept for this festival and has divided it into three groups: “Not Seen in the City”, “Art on the Corner of the Street”, and “Galleries Non-Stop”, thus making it the greatest opportunity to be able to appreciate art in the city for the whole 24 hours.

Liang Gallery is one of the main art spaces that exhibits works of art by Niu Jun-Qiang, Wang Ting-Yu, Hsu Chia-Wei, Chen I-Chun, Chen Po-I, Huang Yi-Chung, and Chi Chien. The works on display are of various media, including paintings, video art, and installations. They reflect not only the artists’ feelings and interpretations of current social and environmental issues, but also present original approach and multiple features of contemporary Taiwanese art.

“Sleepless dwelling” hosts people whose existence is closely linked with the busy tempo of the city life. Due to urban planning initiatives, Dazhi and Neihu have transformed into high-density residential and commercial metropolitan districts with various industries, such as television and media, science and technology. Bipolar lifestyle with a focus on “day” and “night” has dominated these two areas. Taipei Art District Festival 2015 uses the idea of “Sleepless Dwelling” and enters into the lifestyle of “day” and “night” by artistic means and with the concept of “limitless”. Let the rich artistic atmosphere spread around Dazhi and Neihu and remain here for a long time!
