As for “dreams”, they are vessels, stations, and visions that complicate time and dimension they create chances of passage from reality to fantasy, from states of awareness to spheres of the unconscious and ultimately set imaginations free. According to the theorist Drucilla Cornell, who meditates on Derrida’s theory of the impossible, time or temporality “keeps open the ‘not yet,’ but as part of experience.” Based on this proposition, “Impossible” here means “not-yet possible”, a description of a condition and a hope for better things, people, and worlds to come. Though the two aspirations in the title Impossible Dreams seem to move away from actuality and achievement, by reconsidering the meaning of “impossible” and “dreams”, the exhibition tries to cast aside the preconception about these two words and expand their interpretation. The event will consist of two parts: firstly, the “archival display” curated by the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, which will present the archives and revisit works from the Taiwan Exhibition from 1995 to 2019 secondly, the “international forums” will be presided over by Philippine veteran curator Patrick Flores as chief convener. Organizer: Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Taiwan Titled Impossible Dreams, the exhibition will look back on how the Taiwan’s cultural contexts and perspectives have been presented at this international art spectacle through diverse contemporary art that confronts history, society and pressing issues in our everyday lives over the 13 editions, ever since its first participation in the Biennale Arte in 1995.
