As an up-and-coming art establishment, the Jut Art Museum serves to explore what our future might hold,
and transdisciplinary issues.

A Better Tomorrow

Jut Land Development's 30th anniversary, and the Jut Foundation for Arts and Architecture's 10th birthday,
culminates in the establishment of the Jut Art Museum in 2016.

We also anticipate it to carry on the legacy of “A Better Tomorrow” that defines much of the Jut Foundation’s work,
to become the first museum in Taiwan that is focused on the issues of “future” and “city.”

Robin's mother loves to take pictures. In his childhood, his mother often taught techniques about light and composition, and contacted photography in a state that seemed to understand. Photography gives him a sense of accomplishment. For him, every photography experience is a reflection of the next shooting. He likes the feeling of "grow together". In addition, photography has changed the perspective and thoughts of his observations. Robin often unconsciously uses the experience of photography to cut the sights he sees. On photography, Robin believes that different types of shooting are different ability values. This is just the most in need of reflection at this stage. He does have his own shooting style or skills, but he is not good at it. Shooting, he expects to be more comprehensive in photography, but, always, he still likes the most popular photography.

-History-
The Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei (MOCA Taipei) was completed and inaugurated in 1921. Originally, the building was “Kensei Shogakko”, or Jian Cheng Elementary School, for educating Japanese children during the Japanese ruled period.
In 1996, the former Taipei City Government building was designated as a Municipal Heritage Site; and based on the policy of reusing historic building, the front of the building was renovated into MOCA, Taipei whereas the two lateral buildings were assigned as the classrooms of Jian Cheng Junior High School.
Since its inauguration in 2001, the museum had been managed and operated by Contemporary Art Foundation, a civil organization founded by entrepreneurs and commissioned by the government for the first seven years.
On January 1, 2008, the BOT contract that lasted seven years ended, and Taipei Cultural Foundation took on the task of managing and operating the museum.

-Environment-
MOCA Taipei is located at Datong District, the center of Taipei City, Taipei Main Station is just two blocks away. It is extremely convenient for visitors to head over by public transportation, such as MRT (Chung Shan Station Exit 6) or bus (216, 217, 218, 220, 224, 247, 260, 287, 310).
MOCA Taipei is a two-story building which possesses 11 exhibition rooms, and there is also a bunch of public artworks near MOCA Taipei, the official website of MOCA Taipei has provided a strolling map for visitors as well.

“Passion and Emptiness: Alvaro Trugeda Solo Exhibition”

Date: 2018/12/29-2019/3/34
Venue: MOCA cube
Admission: free
Artists: Alvaro Trugeda
About:
Trugeda’s solo exhibition, Passion and Emptiness, features multiple paintings and small-scale sculptures, which have embodied the artist’s exploration of his creative inspiration and talent charged by the collision and interaction between sensibility and rationality. However, when such talent becomes contained by rules, it can also become a constraint in artistic creation. Trugeda believes that intuition is essential in making a breakthrough in this situation, and this process of making a breakthrough is similar to meandering in the Greek mythological “labyrinth,” which seems extremely complicated but still has a definite exit. Artworks, from this perspective, are exploration and thinking during the search of the right path as well as the emotional expression and manifestation that integrate sense and sensibility.

Night at the Museum is a 2006 fantasy-comedy film directed by Shawn Levy and written by Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon. It is based on the 1993 children's book of the same name by Croatian illustrator Milan Trenc and is the first film in the Night at the Museum series. The film stars Ben Stiller as Larry Daley, a divorced father who applies for a job as a night watchman at New York City's American Museum of Natural History and subsequently discovers that the exhibits, animated by a magical Egyptian artifact, come to life at night.

Mostly cute and often frantic, this movie runs out of story early. Although the individual creatures can be entertaining, the film is repetitive and too invested in its silly explanation of how the coming-to-life phenomenon came about (something about an Egyptian pharaoh's tablet). The movie makes a cursory case for the significance of the "first working mother," Lewis and Clark guide Sacajawea (Mizuo Peck), even though -- stuck behind a soundproof glass exhibit -- she's unable to speak or hear the action for much of the film. And it even promotes reading, as Larry researches all his new charges in a bookstore (apparently in one day). Entertaining as it is, though, Night at the Museum falls short of "greatness"

Founded in the heart of Tokyo in 1967, Whitestone Gallery has been a pioneer gallery in Japanese art scene. For the purpose of creating more dialogues between art and region, they opened Karuizawa New Art Museum in Karuizawa (2012) as a rare example of private museums in Japan. Then, in the viewpoint of local and global, they set up two operations in Hong Kong, the most stimulus center for art in Asia; firstly “Whitestone Gallery Wong Chuk Hang Road” (March, 2015), consecutively “Whitestone Gallery Hollywood Road” (March, 2016).

Their mission has been no blur from the start; to introduce Japanese prominent talents in the worldwide context, simultaneously opening a possible new approach to the conventional Japanese art market. Beyond this mission, two year’s experience in Hong Kong led their eyes toward broader local diversities in East Asia. As for architectural supervision, international acclaimed architect Kengo Kuma contributes with his keen aesthetics to the completion of the suitable space for contemporary art. To further broaden our exhibition spectrum, in spring 2018, the relocated our two spaces in Hong Kong to the two-floored exhibition spaces consisting of both modern and contemporary art sections in the Art complex “H Queen’s”, where worldwide leading galleries are gathered.

The epithermal deposits of Jinguashi, Jiufen and Wudan Mountain contain the richest mineral resources in Taiwan. In acknowledging these natural treasures, the Gold Museum organizes the program, aiming to bring the broad audience of Taiwan face-to-face to the history of Taiwanese gold and copper mining industry, and the island’s rich natural resources. The show, apart from an overview of the geological structure of the Shuijinjiou area, also showcases the unique and precious mineral resources of the region. The program also includes topics of scientific studies and the relationship between goldmining and humanistic development, and how the correlation was the foundational “root” for the past development of this mountainous mining town.

The gold outcrop (outcrop) originally discovered here is divided into two large melons and small gourds. Then in 1890 (16th year of the Guangxu reign of Qing Dynasty), when Liu Mingchuan, the governor of Taiwan, led the workers to build the railway, he accidentally discovered the gold sand in the riverbed, and went up to the river to find the gold veins. After the mining government set up the mining bureau, The gold mining industry of Jinguashi was opened.

Jinguashi is still an important producer of Taiwan's gold mining industry; in addition to gold production, copper mines are also an important product. However, with the exhaustion of precious metals such as gold and copper, the quality of gold mines began to decline after 1978, so it was first converted to large-scale open-pit mining to replace traditional tunnel mining. After 1987, mining was abolished and handed over to Taiwan Power Company and Taiwan. The management of the sugar industry, the mountain city is gradually ridiculous.

AJ Tsai said that, “Let yourself see more of the work, then forget about it at some point in the future, leaving only yourself.”

Born in Pingtung, he studied in Kaohsiung and now works as a private company in Taichung. From small to large, and photography is completely out of reach, not even taking pictures. The first camera in my life was bought three or four years ago when I came to Taichung. Because there is only one person, I have time to develop some interest, and these interests must be done by one person, so photography and writing two very personal interests can continue to this day.

He thinks that good street photography photos should be very tasteful, because street photography can be divided into too many types if it is subdivided. Portraits, fun, empty silence, strange, rich layers... Each of the good photo definitions is different, so it can only be summarized. Say, it is to have a taste, or "smell", some photos are beautiful, but there is no smell, I am afraid it is not a good photo in my mind. He is still pursuing this matter himself, hoping that his work will have a more "scent".

He is a very unique photographer. In today's society, a camera or even a mobile phone can become a photographer. He prefers to shoot a street scene. What he observes is not for others, nor for shooting. A beautiful photo, but know what you want, want to shoot before pressing the shutter. This does not seem to be in his mind for the photographers who have the timing.

Double Square Gallery established in 2015, Taipei, is an art space that emphasis on the promotion of art, curatorial practice, publishing, research and art collection services as its core values. The name Double Square (in Chinese also meaning double sides) is taken from the two rectangular spaces configuration that created the Gallery space, it is at the same time, the expression of the physical space and the conceptual value of the gallery.

It is expected from the establishment of the Gallery and its business operations, to redefine in this era, the role and attitude of galleries, highlighting artistic production in the contemporary international environment, exhibition patterns, academic research, exhibition space planning, international exchange and development direction of training and resource exchange. Becoming you/I, artist/curators, galleries/collectors, space/community, exhibition/public, pure/diversity, local/international, social enterprise/sharing of resources; and various other extension of “both sides” to express diversity, and creating endless possibilities from within the spectral contrast of “both sides”, allowing the space to become a new multi-purpose platform, encompassing museum, alternative spaces and commercial gallery.
