Hello Venice!威尼斯建築雙年展臺灣館交流座談會巡迴實錄

Hello Venice! A Retrospective of the Venice Architecture Biennale Taiwan Pavilion Forum Series

自2026年1月起，威尼斯建築雙年展臺灣館的主辦任務正式移交至財團法人臺灣博物館文教基金會（以下稱臺博會）。面對明年即將到來的第20屆盛會，這項交接不僅是展覽業務的轉移，更是重新審視臺灣館如何與世界展開對話的契機。

In 2026, the responsibility for hosting the Taiwan Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale was officially transferred to the Taiwan Museum Foundation. This transition is more than just an administrative change; it offers a timely opportunity to rethink Taiwan's approach to international dialogue. To this end, the Foundation, in collaboration with Architecture+Tectonics Taiwan, organized a forum series across Tainan, Taichung, and Taipei to gather perspectives from experienced architectural and curatorial experts. This article summarizes the key insights from these forums, reflecting on the past state of the Taiwan pavilion through four distinct lenses: global perspectives, curatorial methodology, spatial practices, and institutional frameworks. The text begins with the core essence of the Venice Biennale, followed by an examination of the Taiwan Pavilion's geopolitical context and its underlying anxiety of longing to be seen. The debate then delves into the tension between national identity and universal representation. Finally, the discussion focuses on the future institutional transition and knowledge accumulation. By moving beyond identity anxieties and addressing universal global challenges, the Taiwan Pavilion can transcend geographical boundaries and foster deep, authentic connections with the world.
