Face to Face showcases 30 mixed media works by 8 contemporary artists in Taiwan from the "thirty-something" generation. As the beneficiaries of Taiwan's "Economic Miracle", this new generation of artists is facing the "real" effects of Taiwan's rapid economic modernisation and its impact on the environment and on local practices and beliefs. In this post- industrial society where urbanisation, commercialisation and westernisation co-exist, the self has become the focus of veneration, as people in Taiwan struggle not only to "save face" but to "show face".
