As one of the most important international art exhibitions in Taiwan, the Taipei Biennial has been the leading platform of contemporary art since 1998. This year, as the seventh exhibition TB10 will attempt to revise the current cultural production, especially the event itself. Through the reexamination of the political elements in art, the definition of modern art development and Biennial effect will be reviewed. This exhibition explores the artistic world, pushes the boundaries of traditional methods and the manufacture of cultural knowledge. Critiques and advises towards the TB10, various events and incidents are also added to become a part of the show; in total, 37 pieces created by 23 groups of artists are exhibited.

Some working premises are as follows: TB08 Revisited: TB10 will build on ideas and projects from previous Taipei Biennials. Two More Years: Artists were involved in a wider curatorial discussion. This resulted in a transfiguration of TB10 into a two year process. The Show: is deliberately restricted to 23 featured artists and 37 artworks. Sputniks: Three critical companions are invited to consistently produce unsparing feedback during TB10. September Events: The ambitious events program will offer a more composite timeline than usual. Artist Cinema: The screening program includes 35 films by 31 artists. Lecture Theater: Actors and actresses enact essays written by art critics and scholar. Taipei Art Spaces: Sevens Taipei venues have articulated various levels of collaboration.
