摘要

本論文從特定場域的角度，觀察近年來台灣當代藝術進入公共空間展覽的各種現象與問題，以及針對特定場域作品分析藝術與場域的關連，藉由拋出其中的思考面向與觀看角度，檢視當代藝術在各種環境中執行的現象。

第一章以理論為主，探討特定場域之概念，從特定場域的淵源與發展以及其特質對相關類型藝術和場所、空間的影響，對特定場域作全面性的了解，並以此基礎探討環境和空間的特性，由藝術與環境結合之情形與國外案例，提供參考的面向。第二章探討台灣當代藝術在環境中的展覽，從台灣之藝術與展覽空間背景的發展脈絡來觀察，藝術走出原有的美術館或藝術空間，在不同地點發生，其目的不再是為藝術而藝術，而是有各種不同考量以及面對環境所形成的問題。其中牽涉到公共藝術、地景藝術與裝置藝術等發展，並且以實際案例與策展人訪談探討展覽的策略，藉此認知實務上的操作考量。第三章主要討論台灣藝術家的特定場域作品，藝術與環境結合的發展源自台灣這塊土地，其面貌必定與本土的文化、自然背景關係密切，也具有台灣的意義和特色。將第一章的理論基礎運用於此，從藝術家的創作過程與作品形式，分析藝術在環境中展現的意義，不只實體空間的情況，其中更有人文、在地精神之灌注，筆者並藉由訪談藝術家，深入了解藝術家本身和環境脈絡的關聯與其特定場域作品之創作因素，以及這類藝術對觀眾的影響，歸納出特定場域藝術之各面向思考。「特定場域」所強調的即是地點、空間的真實，形成藝術與環境脈絡的對話。藝術家在特定場域創作有其必要的考量，特定場域所帶給我們的省思，其實就是對生活當下各種面向的關照，亦呈現出藝術的無限發展能量。

My thesis explores the idea of site-specificity by looking into exhibitions of contemporary art in Taiwan’s public places, both as a general issue and as individual cases for study. It is my intention to create with it a multi-dimensional way of thinking and an encompassing view that are inductive to a proper assessment of how contemporary art functions in all kinds of environments.

Chapter one covers the theoretical basis of my inquiry. It expounds the concept of site-specificity, recounts its origin and development, and speculates on its influences on our understanding of art and its placement in a space. How art becomes integrated with its environment is seen here in part through studies of existing works, and is the framework of our reference here.

Chapter two provides an overview of the phenomenon of modern art exhibitions in Taiwan. When art leaves galleries or museums or art space for displays at various places and spaces, it is no longer “art for art’s sake.” Instead it forms a reaction to the challenges posed by each context and environment in which it is placed. Under consideration here are examples of public art, land art and installation art that I believe are reflections of this rationale. Case analyses and interviews with museum curators are presented to give concrete ideas about the actual issues and problems to be faced when mounting art exhibitions that are specific to their site.

Chapter three discusses site-specific artworks by Taiwanese artists. As art created with a specific setting in mind, these have a background in Taiwan’s cultural and natural circumstances. Applying the theories already introduced in chapter one, I will characterize the meaning of in situ art displays as one informing the artist’s creative process and the appearances of their art. Through conversations with artists I also aim to discover how site-specific art incorporates localisms and influences viewers. It is significant when an artist creates his or her work as site-specific, since it establishes contacts between art and all aspects in our life, and presents art at its most evocative and potent.
