An Art Experiment Implanted in the streets of a Historical District-The Status Quo and Crisis of 〝Mincyuan Road Art Festival〞 and〝Hai An Road Street Museum〞when Contemporary Art meets Historic Streets in Tainan City / 歷史脈絡下藝術植入的場域實驗-從臺南市民權路「藝術建醮」與海安路「街道美術館」,探究藝術進入歷史街區的影響與意義

碩士 / 國立臺北藝術大學 / 美術史研究所 / 96 / An "Experiment" represents a fresh attempt and often entails uncertainty. "Implantation" symbolizes the dynamic process of stage-by-stage intervention and adaptation. In 2004,the project of "Hai-An Road Street Museum" in Tainan was launched among the streets that had been the result of a disappointing urban planning. The project was aimed at mending a scarred streetscape through reconfiguring these streets from the perspective of art and evoking their history that had long been forgotten. The predecessor of this project was the "2003 Mincyuan Road Art Festival" in Tainan, which can be seen as the overture of the introduction of contemporary art into historic streets. These art projects, like strange and outlandish plants, have been trying to adapt to the soil of a long tradition. Difficulties and challenges have emerged because of this encounter between the old and new, and whether these exotic flowers will continue to flourish or wither has become the main concern of the art studies community in Taiwan.
This study intends to understand the context of these art projects and how various communities agree or disagree upon the process and result of the implantation of art by interviewing three different groups, namely, public sectors, community development groups, and art groups. Besides, in order to base its research on quantitative data, the paper also incorporates questionnaires specifically focusing on the Mincyuan Road Art Festival" and "Hai-An Road Street Museum." The questionnaires were filled out by local residents and tourists who offered a general public''s point of view on these projects. Therefore, the study uses qualitative interview as well as survey research method so as to investigate the impact that these art projects have had on historic neighborhoods. Hopefully, the paper can provide individuals or groups that are interested in bringing art into communities, or even public sectors, with a new perspective to reflect on how better strategies can be formed to help art become deeper rooted in the land, and communities, reinvigorate themselves by embracing art.
