Joseph Beuys in A Call of All Beings Group Exhibition in the Taichung Art Museum
A Call of All Beings: See you tomorrow, same time, same place opens the Taichung Art Museum with key works by Joseph Beuys, alongside contributions from artists across regions.
The exhibition unfolds within Central Park, a landscape transformed from a military base and the former Shuinan Airport into a vibrant urban green space, and reflects on the visible and invisible connections between humans, animals, plants, and their environments.
Co-curated by the museum team together with Ling-Chih Chow, Alaina Claire Feldman, and Anca Mihuleţ-Kim, the exhibition creates a shared space where artists, audiences, and the stories of human and non-human beings intersect. It engages with themes including natural histories, mythologies, migration, language, and the interplay between bodily perception and systems of domestication.
Organized across five interconnected sections, the exhibition guides visitors through shifting landscapes, reinterpreted folklore, unsettled taxonomies, layered experiences of time and space, and the voices of beings that lie beyond human language. Several works extend into the Green Museumbrary, engaging the surrounding environment and questioning the boundaries between public and private, wild and cultivated.
Ultimately, A Call of All Beings invites fresh ways of perceiving and understanding the world, opening possibilities for shared futures and expanded narratives.
