CHEN TING-JUNG
|
Chen Ting-Jung, born in 1985 in Taipei, now lives and works in Taipei and Vienna. She graduated with a diploma in Fine Arts at Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien in 2018; a BFA in Fine Arts at HFBK Hamburg in 2015; and a BA in Philosophy at National Taiwan University in 2009. Her artistic practice concerns historiography and cultural-political semiotics, with a special focus on collective memories, appropriation, empowerment processes, and political identity. By reproducing artifacts of the cultural industry, representing ideologies, and showing their relationships to human beings, the artist explores the transformation of identity and turns the overlapping, mingling cultures into a spatial atlas. Her solo exhibitions and projects include: This Is A Complex Sentence., Taipei Fine Arts Museum, 2022; Wind Arrows On A Corner Side, Digital Art Center, Taipei, 2022; Harmonielehre, TheCube Project Space, Taipei, 2021; and Keep me close to you, Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna, 2018. Her works have been featured in exhibitions at: MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Los Angeles; Hong-Gah Museum, Taipei; Live Forever Foundation, Taichung; Belvedere 21, Vienna; National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, Taichung; and Koganecho AMC, Yokohama. She is the recipient of the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program, 2023; the Fostering Prize for Fine Arts of City Vienna, 2022; the Visual Arts Scholarship from the Federal Chancellery of Austria, 2020; the Visual Arts Grant from the National Culture and Arts Foundation of Taiwan, 2020; the MAK-Schindler Scholarship, 2019; the Kunsthalle Wien Prize, 2018; the Koganecho Bazaar Residency Fellowship, 2017; and the Judges’ Award of the Taipei Art Awards, 2015. Recent publications include: This Is A Complex Sentence. by Taipei Fine Arts Museum, 2022; Ting-Jung Chen. You Are the Only One I Care About (whisper) by Kunsthalle Wien, 2022.
