The fifth edition of Taipei Dangdai, presented by UBS and taking place again at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, brings together a strong line-up of leading contemporary art galleries from all over the world, showcasing art from the most sought-after established and emerging artists, as well as works of art exhibited in Asia for the first time.
Welcoming local and international collectors, art lovers and the general public alike, the fair also presents a curated program of site-specific installations, talks, workshops and pop-up events. As an important nexus for contemporary art in East Asia, the fair promises four days of discoveries, offering a vital meeting point for regional and international collectors to explore the city’s vibrant art scene and thriving art market.
Taipei Dangdai is part of The Art Assembly, an affiliation of three major international art fairs with a particular focus on the Asia Pacific region comprising Taipei Dangdai, ART SG and Tokyo Gendai. It represents a joint initiative between three of the world’s leading art fair organisers headed by Sandy Angus, Tim Etchells and Magnus Renfrew.
