NON-Believe: Taiwan Intelligens of Precarity

Curator: Cheng-Luen HSUEH
Co-curator: Ping-Sheng WU, Meng-Tsun SU, Sung-Chang Leo CHIANG

The Taiwan Pavilion aims to explore the relationship between contemporary architecture, technology, development, and environmental sustainability, presenting contemporary design thinking while reflecting on the intersection and reflection with the environment, society, and culture. For this exhibition, centered around the Department of Architecture at National Cheng Kung University, we have gathered renowned architects, designers, and student research teams from Taiwan. Together, under the theme of “NON-Belief,” we aim to construct an “ambiguous” area of binary dialectics between “belief” and “non-belief” that is intrinsic to Taiwanese society and everyday life. This reflection will present the manifestation of Taiwan’s “intelligens” and respond to the 19th Venice Architecture Biennale’s main theme: Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective.
