Broken Spectre = 破身影 / Edited by Yu Si YingSummarization of Content
Exhibition catalogue for the group show: Broken Spectre, curated by Et@t and Yu Wei, held at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum Taipei in 2017. Includes two volumes, one in English and one in traditional Chinese script.The title of the exhibition referred to the keyword pò (broken / to break) of Taiwan’s underground culture in the 1990s, as well as the term “Brocken Spectre,” a natural phenomenon where the magnified shadow of the observer is cast upon clouds or mist opposite the sun's direction and can be mistaken for a large figure.
The exhibition examined Taiwan's underground culture and local art scene in the 1990s using materials from the ET@T online archive. It presented three commissioned works which were inspired by the materials the artist had interacted with in the archive. The works, rather than representing historical facts, captured the 'spectre of cultural history', and acted as a adaptation and re-imagination of Taiwan’s modern cultural archives.
