The Covenant of Dadu: A Diplomacy of Things between Mountains and Seas
Exhibition Period: 8 May - 2 August 2026
Venue: TcAM Exhibition Room D, E, Taichung Art Museum
When the formation of a city is not solely shaped by human construction, but rather emerges from the interweaving of land, rivers, crops, and technology—how might we rethink the art and history of Taichung?
Grounded in urban studies and the development of art, the Taichung Art Museum presents the exhibition “The Covenant of Dadu: A Diplomacy of Things between Mountains and Seas” opening on May 8.
Curated by Assistant Professor Shen,Yu Chang of National Taipei University of Education, the exhibition centers on the Dadu Plateau and proposes the concept of “material diplomacy.” From a contemporary aesthetic perspective, it explores how Central Taiwan’s artistic energy and everyday landscapes have been shaped over time through developments such as railway infrastructure and urbanization.
