I am enjoying the time here in Keelung Taiwan curating the first environmental art project at the National Museum of Marine Science & Technology in Keelung, Taiwan.
Here is a link to the Museum’s website, and you can click on the map by the “Letter” indicating each artwork to get the information about each artist and the individual artworks. http://artproject2015.nmmst.gov.tw

The opening day for the NMMST International Environmental Art Project “Paradise – Sustainable Oceans” is Saturday June 6, with public participation activities with the artists. The artworks will remain on view through August 30 and probably longer.
Check back here for photos of all the finished installations after the opening this Saturday.
