Taiwanese Artist Exhibits Sculpture

2006/04/01

As part of the important Taiwanese artists' homecoming to the mainland activities, Space for Imagination, a sculpture exhibition of Shiau Jon Jen was held March 15-25 in Hall No. 2 of the National Art Museum of China.

Born in Zhanghua, Taiwan, in 1954, Shiau Jon Jen has nearly 20 years' experience in art-park planning, which has given him a unique understanding of the use of space. In 1997, he was invited to design the Yuzi Paradise in Guilin, Guangxi Province. The project was later cited as a holy temple of contemporary sculpture in China. Since then, Shiau Jon Jen has contributed to the development of contemporary sculpture and architecture in China.

The Space for Imagination exhibition, organized by the Centre of International Cultural Exchange, was designed to promote cultural exchanges between Taiwan and the Chinese mainland, and included one of Shiau Jon Jen's best works "My Forest."
