Chang Li-ren showcases miniatures at Taipei exhibit

2024-07-02

An exhibition featuring miniatures is being held at the Museum of National Taipei University of Education. Artist Chang Li-ren spent 14 years crafting miniatures of cityscapes and figurines. FTV reporter Stephany Yang takes us in for a look.

These true-to-life miniature cityscapes, buildings, and figurines were all inspired by different urban environments around Taiwan. Chang used wooden sticks and Styrofoam to build them.

His models are based on a 1:12 scale. Chang used his body, adjusting the scale based on his memory of spatial relationships between the urban spaces and his own body. Chang spent 14 years crafting this city.

Chang Li-ren’s work is a discourse on cities, society, and life. Through this work, Chang Li-ren also discusses the value and significance of existence in this social environment, and how to survive within the cracks.

Chang also created two short films and a comic book using the same miniature cityscapes and figurines. This exhibition showcases these works, along with the puppets and manuscripts used in the films.

He created two video works, as well as comic works. What is very special about the exhibition is that he produced all the content and subjects of the video, instead of shooting real scenes. His works explore the value and meaning of human existence in a society.

Chang won the Open Call for the latest Dreamin’ MoNTUE Project, organized by the Museum of National Taipei University of Education.

This is an international project. Chang Li-ren was selected from 60 works submitted from 13 countries. The jury factored in Chang’s focus and perseverance as a creator. Over the past 10 years, he devoted tremendous attention to his themes. No matter what kind of restrictions he encountered during creation, he never gave up.

The exhibition is on at the Museum of National Taipei University of Education until July 21.

北師美術館「戰鬥之城.終」展 張立人費時14年打造微縮城市

2024-07-02

北師美術館舉辦「戰鬥之城.終」展覽,藝術家張立人花了十四年創作了微縮城市景觀和雕像,一起來看看!

這些栩栩如生的微型城市景觀、建築和雕像,是張立人用木材和保麗龍做出來的,而他的靈感正來自台灣各地的城市。

他的模型以1:12 的比例為基礎。張立人用他的身體,根據他對城市空間與自己身體之間空間關係的記憶來調整尺度。張花了14年的時間打造了這座城市。

[[北師美術館創辦人 林曼麗]]
"張立人的作品本身在談都市,社會、生活,張立人也透過這個作品討論在這個社會環境之下存在的價值跟意義,在縫隙裡面怎麼生存? "

張立人也使用相同的微型城市景觀和雕像,創作了兩部短片和漫畫。本次展覽展出作品以及電影中使用的木偶和手稿。

[[北師美術館創辦人 林曼麗]]
"他有兩個影像作品,還有漫畫作品。展覽很特別的地方,他在做影像,所有的拍攝的內容跟題材都是他自己製作,不是去拍實景。他都是探討人活在環境社會裡面的生存的價值跟意義。"

張立人獲選北師美術館最新Dreamin’ MoNTUE計畫的公開徵集。

[[北師美術館創辦人 林曼麗]]
"這是一個國際計畫,這次從13個國家、60幾件作品裡面,最後選出張立人這個藝術家。評審委員考慮張立人是一個非常專注執著的創作者,這10幾年來,他對他的主題的創作,不管是遇到什麼樣的限制,他都沒有放棄他的創作。"

展覽在北師美術館將展出至7月21日。
