VISION
Co-founded by the YIRI Living Foundation and YIRI ARTS, this platform transcends boundaries, creating an environment where art flourishes without constraints. Uniting artists and collectives from around the globe, the Taipei Free Art Fair is dedicated to fostering connections and providing opportunities for emerging talents. Since 2014, it has been a catalyst for dialogue and a space to explore the limitless possibilities of contemporary art.
The 6th edition of the Taipei Free Art Fair, themed The Metamorphosis, celebrates the 100th anniversary of Surrealism's birth. With the largest scale to date, the fair spans five warehouses and is divided into four main exhibition areas:
Buildings A, B, F: The main exhibition area featuring works by 65 artists selected through an open call, including creators from Taiwan, Europe, Southeast Asia, and beyond.
Building M: The largest solo exhibition in Taiwan of Japanese artist Yuichi Hirako.
Building F: A special exhibition curated by YIRI ARTS, showcasing 10 international artists.
Building G: TEAORY x Artists and Their Tea Utensils.
“The mere word freedom is the only one that still excites me. I deem it capable of indefinitely sustaining the old human fanaticism.” — André Breton
In 1924, the Surrealist Manifesto was published in Paris, bringing about an unprecedented artistic revolution. Now, after a century of change, we confront new global challenges, from pandemics to geopolitics and the rise of artificial intelligence. How should we redefine reality and humanity?
At the 6th Taipei Free Art Fair, surrealism becomes our verb, challenging perceptions and embracing freedom.
