New Taipei City Art Museum — Attraction in New Taipei

The environment is truly stunning, making it a pleasure to visit. The modern buildings, designed with a concrete and wood effect, harmonize beautifully with the natural landscape. Surrounding the structures are well-maintained fields and pathways, creating a serene atmosphere that invites leisurely strolls. On our weekend visit, we enjoyed the spaciousness, as the crowd was light, allowing us to explore without feeling rushed.

However, the exhibitions left much to be desired, which is disappointing for such a remarkable venue. While some installations featured interactive elements, like balancing beams and a badminton area, many others felt lackluster. It seemed as though old sports equipment had been haphazardly placed to fill the space, rather than thoughtfully curated to engage visitors. This felt like a missed opportunity to fully utilize the beautiful surroundings.

Given that the venue is relatively new, it’s possible they are still in the process of arranging more compelling exhibitions. The potential is evident, and I hope they can attract better displays in the future. With some improvements in the exhibition quality, this could truly become a premier destination that complements its breathtaking environment. For now, I can only give it three stars, as the beauty of the space deserves more thoughtful...

I have been visiting museums in 17 countries..this is the worst one I have seen. Why make a grand opening when the main building is still under construction ?

The few art displays are pitiful, more like a first year art student exhibition.

The surprising number of information booths is puzzling....may be they are supposed to answer the main question from the visitors "where is the art??"

The market on the weekend is a joke....37 degrees weather, all in the sun, with little umbrellas blown away by the wind....although there is plenty of space in the shade to accommodate this market...Who is responsible for this? But the market is just a distraction to hide the fact that the museum is not finished and unprofessional.

The first stage show I saw there was on a wet day....nowhere to seat except on a wet muddy grass. The second show had a much bigger stage。...but no shade for the performers or spectators...

"Fiasco" is the word that comes to my mind to describe this waste of public funds and disrespect for patrons and performers. Very...

It's been "opened" for so long and it's still not ready. The outdoor area might be for walking around and walk your dog, but not the interior exhibition area. And what is the deal of being a municipal art center to have not a exhibition hall but cut into tiny rooms? Not liking it. It's more of a maze than a art center. January 09th, 2024

The site is not ready. I suspect it was opened much too early for everyone's own good. The so called closed for installation of new exhibition was just an excuse to make up what should have been completed before its grand opening.

You'll see many construction tools, trucks and equipments laying everywhere in the area. It's casualties waiting to happen!

Also what needs to be pointed out is lacking of shades of the walk ways within the area, not to mention the pavements are in bright white color and will undoubtedly will blind the visions of the visitors.

In conclusion of this disappointed visit is, it's not ready. It sounds good in plan, but definitely not up to par,...
