The 4th Matsu Biennial, which takes place on the Matsu Islands (Lienchiang County) in Taiwan from August 20 to November 7, 2027, launches an international open call for artists. The Biennial welcomes creative proposals that engage with Matsu's cultural heritage and the Cold War history on the islands, seen from external perspectives, and that make the islands a place for global artistic dialogue.
There is no set theme, but applicants can engage with three axes: the island (culture, religious practice, traditional stone houses), the outpost (geopolitics, blackout, collective memory) and the sea (environmental protection, sustainability, marine pollution). Project types can be site-specific installations (indoors or outdoors) or participatory/interdisciplinary art projects.
Each selected proposal receives production support of up to 800,000 NTD (tax included).
