The 83 works in the exhibition, including 19 new creations, question the theory of progress and the universal concept of time, and guide the audience to focus on the present moment and think deeply about alternative imaginations and ideas about world order before transitioning to an uncertain future. practice. 
The theme of this year's Asian Biennale is "How to Hold Your Breath" which reverses the English proverb "Don't The original meaning of "don't hold your breath" is "don't expect change to happen soon", which implies potential hope. Influenced by global capitalism, contemporary people are always in a state of cultural and geographical migration. In the cosmos, we inhabit a multiverse of multiple worlds that coexist and constantly change. This phenomenon continues to change the identities, meanings, and structures of humans and non-humans, and new connections and senses of belonging are gradually emerging. A way of the world awakens people's potential to reconstruct relationships in the midst of collapse. 
The exhibition will also launch a public program that echoes the curatorial theme, including the “circular”ity) as the concept, a number of experimental performances using elements such as walking in a circle, spinning and dancing, and music loop playback; a series of performances focusing on challenging the established logic of power dominance through exploring issues such as displacement, imaginary futures, and dystopia. Artist talks; and the screening program "How Breath Moves", which is expected to start in December, will bring together 8 works with different artistic techniques, but jointly treat breathing as a collective film installation.

National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts

Themed exhibition halls

Tom Hung

Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts - The architectural space emphasizes openness and modernity. The shape is simple and square, with a step-down pattern. Natural stone pieces are used as the main exterior decoration material. The open park displays exquisite sculptures, and there is a square with a forest of stele squares that collects the ink marks of Taiwan&#39;s predecessors. A large glass curtain on the south side brings in natural light, forming a scene of light and shadow in the museum. As time and weather change, the building can be seen everywhere. The level of light and shadow changes, making the building and the sky become one. The National Museum of Fine Arts has systematically planned various types of exhibitions with the development of Taiwan&#39;s art as the main axis, and is also committed to international cultural and artistic exchanges.

Feng Chia Night Market

阿歪609

Fengjia Night Market is a must-visit food gathering place in Taichung. It is crowded with people from the evening, with students and tourists interweaving, lively but not crowded. There are so many kinds of snacks here that it is dazzling. The most popular one is Guanzhilin&#39;s large intestine wrapped in small intestine. The glutinous rice sausage is wrapped in grilled sausage and brushed with special sauce. The queue is long but worth it. If you like to be curious, you can try the rainbow potato chips. The spiral potatoes are fried golden and topped with cheese sauce and corn kernels. The appearance and taste are online.

Zhonghua Road Night market

流浪的小狐狸

This is a relatively old night market in Taichung. It is a good place for late night snacks. The stalls are located on Section 1 and Section 2 of Zhonghua Road. It is a test of physical strength and leg strength to walk. It is also a good opportunity to eat and digest at the same time. Because it is on the main road, there are many pedestrians and vehicles.
