賴駿杰

Studied Fine Arts (BA), Art Criticism (MA) and received an MFA degree in Curating (2014-16) from Goldsmiths, University of London. I had a few years of experience as an independent curator as well as a freelance writer, and worked in an NGO art organisation and art museum. I have curated exhibitions across not-for-profit art centres and commercial galleries in China and Taiwan, such as the Taipei Contemporary Art Center, Aki Gallery (Taipei), Hong-gha Museum (Taipei), TKG+ Projects (Taipei), National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts (Taichung), MAB Gallery (Shanghai) and ModeA Contemporary Art Space (Xiamen). I have had more than fifty articles and essays published in major art magazines, including Artco (Taipei), Art World (Shanghai) and Art.Zip (London), and now as member of AICA (International Association of Art Critics, UNESCO). I spent a year in Paris before going to London. My research interests cover issues such as word-image relations, moving images and curatorial studies. Recent curatorial proposals that I am working on are seeking to revise the previously ignored action modes in everyday life, namely “listening / speaking / reading / writing”, intending to reform a scheme for actioners to co-exist with the world. Radical Forms of Writing, as the first episodic exhibition, has been presented at Hong-gah Museum in 2017, which was nominated by the Taishin Arts Award.
