Introduction

As news facts break into fragments on our screens, audiences are increasingly divided into separate and isolated groups. In a world overflowing with information, it has paradoxically become more difficult to gain a deeper understandiing of a land’s histories, or to see the world from another person’s perspective. These conditions place journalists in a particularly challenging position and have also raised concerns among historians, as they threaten the future of civilization.

 

For this guided tour, the speaker Lin Chi-Hao has selected artworks that engage with historical memory, worldviews (Weltanschauung), and the body in states of transformation. Through these works, the tour invites visitors to look beyond the surface to understand the events and realities beneath, whether fragmented memories, fractured territories, or bodies and minds shattered by the trauma of war.

 

If what has been broken could be reassembled, what might hold us together again? This guided tour echoes the Biennial’s core curatorial theme of yearning, while also responding to urgent questions raised by contemporary journalism and historical inquiry.

About Roaming the Horizon

Echoing the curatorial concept and spatial character of the 2025 Taipei Biennial: Whispers on the Horizon, the public programme series Roaming the Horizon adopts movement and flow as its guiding principles. The series invites speakers from the arts and other disciplines to guide visitors through the exhibition spaces, engaging with artworks through encounter and dialogue. Through a range of keywords and lines of thought, visitors are encouraged to develop their own perspectives and ways of experiencing the exhibition.
