Taipei Artist Village to hold winter open studio events

"Artists from around the world will show you their artworks from their unlimited creativity, the everlasting passion of their hearts, and their hard work during their residency, " the TAV said in a newsletter.

The 2009 Winter Open Studio event, titled SuPerArt, will be held at the TAV in downtown Taipei and at its sister facility, Grass Mountain Artist Village in suburban Taipei, according to the newsletter.

The participating artists, among many others, include Italian installation artist Carlotta Brunetti, Australian sculptor Julie Bartholomew, Argentinian visual artist Florencia Levy, German choreographer Arco Renz and three Taiwanese artists -- painter Huo Kang, visual artist Tseng Yu-chin and renowned pipa player Luo Chao-yun.

Some artists will open their studios to showcase their complete or ongoing projects and have face-to-face discussions with art enthusiasts, while others will stage performances and set up workshops to interact with the audience, the newsletter said.

Established in 2001, the TAV is Taiwan's first artist village. It serves as a center for creativity, reaching out to local residents and foreign artists through a variety of activities.
