《敏斯特雕塑計畫展》「公共收藏」研究初探

Brief Studies on Skulptur Projekte Münster’s Public Collection

本研究透過分析《敏斯特雕塑計畫展》（Skulptur Projekte Münster）歷屆展覽之策畫及展出作品，嘗試了解該展對於「公共收藏」的定義及其變化。經過研究及實地訪查後，發現《敏斯特雕塑計畫展》乃為回應敏斯特市對於現代雕塑的保守態度而成立的。該展早期注重如何於公共空間置放現代雕塑，以及如何向市民介紹國際現代雕塑；然其策展策略及概念至今已轉型為強調觀念藝術的呈現以及社區參與藝術的實踐。在這半世紀以來，可以觀察到「公共」的定義亦已有所改變。本研究除理解《敏斯特雕塑計畫展》對於城市空間的布局，亦理解其如何選擇應保留之作品及其作品之現狀。

This essay attempts to understand the definition of“public collection”and its changes by analyzing the previous editions and works of Skulptur Projekte Münster. After research and field visits, it was discovered that Skulptur Projekte Münster was established out of Münster’s conservative attitude towards modern sculpture. From its early days, Skulptur Projekte focused on how to curate modern sculptures in public spaces and how to introduce international modern art to the citizens of Münster. Its curatorial strategy and concept have transformed to emphasize conceptual art and participatory art at the end. Over the past half century, it can be observed that the definition of“public”has also changed. This essay not only understands the layout of the urban space of the Skulptur Projekte, but also understands how it selects the works that should be preserved and the current status of their preservation.
