Taipei Fine Arts Museum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Taipei Fine Arts Museum (traditional Chinese: 台北市立美術館; pinyin: Táiběi Shìlì Měishùguǎn) is a museum in Taipei, Taiwan. It was established in December 24, 1983. It is also the first modern art museum. The artworks in the museum are mostly done by Taiwanese artists. There was a plan to build another art museum next to this one; however, the plan was cancelled. In 2001, Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei (台北當代藝術館;MOCA Taipei) was established in the Taipei City government old building.
[edit] Artworks
There are more than 3,000 artworks in the museum. Most of those displayed are post-1940 by Taiwanese artists, and are organized into 13 groups. In 2000, there were exhibitions of digital technology arts in the museum.
