Hyper Taiwan : Art Design Culture

by Kurt Brereton

Speaking with three voices (the artist, academic and tourist), the author argues that Taiwan is the first postmodern country of the 21st century. Largely invisible to most westerners, Taiwan is a dynamic example of a post-media digital culture at work. Essays on contemporary art, design and cultural issues are networked with visual and textual commentaries. Features the work of young Taiwanese new media artists and designers.
