This book argues that the value of Off-Site Art lies in the fact
that art should not be confined to a gallery; instead, art
manifests its power in everyday life. Further argues that a
specific approach to curating, Off-Site Art Curating, is required.
The task of Off-Site Art Curating is to create a support system
that mediates between the diverse forces in operation in order to
ensure that art is valued as art itself rather than merely playing
a subsidiary role serving political, economic or another purposes.
As a distinct mode of art production, Off-Site Art refers to works
in temporary exhibitions which are held away from traditional
gallery spaces and create their own time-space on site, usually
being 'site-specific', 'context-sensitive' and 'audience
participation'. Several cases in Taiwan (1987-2007) are taken to
examine four primary aspects: Off-Site Art Curating and Politics;
Off-Site Art Curating and Business; Off-Site Art Curating and Urban
Regeneration; Off-Site Art Curating and the Community.
