雙城計：臺南 × 熊本臺灣當代藝術接力展
活動簡介
文｜黃德馨
《雙城計：臺南 × 熊本臺灣當代藝術接力展》是一項以城市為節點、以時間為軸線展開的跨國藝術計畫。透過作品在不同城市之間的移動與回應，展覽形成一條持續延伸的敘事路徑，使創作在多重空間與觀看關係中不斷累積新的意義。計畫自臺南啟動，於臺南市美術館以三位藝術家的聯展揭開序幕，並將於2027年移至熊本，以三位藝術家的個展深化跨城市的藝術對話。
臺南與熊本皆為由多重歷史層次交織而成的城市。臺南在古蹟與日常之間緩慢流動，熊本則在震後重建與城市結構中展現斷裂與修復的節奏。兩者皆非靜止的歷史，而是在持續變動中生成當代樣貌。在此脈下，記憶不僅存在於空間，也延伸至數位影像與個人感知之中，使時間與自我呈現流動與重組的狀態。
本展邀集楊茂林、林鴻文與常陵三位藝術家，分別從文化混種、存在感知與虛實結構等面向回應當代處境。透過三者的創作，展覽呈現身分的流動、感知的沉澱，以及現實的再建構，開啟觀者對自我與世界的再思考。
本計畫藉由藝術在兩座城市之間的轉譯與流動，讓觀看不再只是瞬間經驗，而成為一種持續生成的文化行動。

“Twin Cities Project: Tainan × Kumamoto Taiwan Contemporary Art RelayExhibition” is a transnational art project that unfolds with cities as its nodes and timeas its axis. Through the movement of and responses between works in different cities,
the exhibition forms a continuously extending narrative path, allowing creations to continuously accumulate new meanings within multiple spaces and viewing relationships. The project launches from Tainan, opening with a group exhibition of
three artists at the Tainan Art Museum, and will move to Kumamoto in 2027 where solo exhibitions by the three artists will further deepen cross-city artistic dialogue.
Both Tainan and Kumamoto are cities woven from multiple historical layers. Tainan flows slowly between historical sites and daily life, while Kumamoto reveals a rhythm of rupture and repair within post-earthquake reconstruction and urban structures. Neither city is defined by a static history; rather, they generate contemporary forms amidst continuous change. Within this context, memory exists not only in space but also extends into digital images and individual perceptions, resulting in a state of fluidity and reconfiguration of both time and the self.
This exhibition invites three artists, Yang Mao-lin, Lin Hong-wen, and Chang Ling, to respond to contemporary conditions from the perspectives of cultural hybridity, existential perception, and the structure of the real and the virtual, respectively. Through the creations of these three, the exhibition presents the fluidity of identity, the accumulation of perception, and the reconstruction of reality, inviting viewers into a reconsideration of the self and the world.
Through the translation and fluidity of art between the two cities, this project redefines viewing as no longer merely a momentary experience, but an ongoing cultural practice.
