About Metaphysical Art Gallery  
     
  ¡@¡@In October 1989, we were first open as Magnet Art Gallery. The very first exhibition held then featured the works of senior artist Chen De-wang. Also we established a computer image search center at the same time so that we could systematically introduced various local artists and how the art world in Taiwan has developed itself into the way it is today. We are the first gallery to introduce computer images.

¡@¡@In November 1992, we moved to our new office in Apollo Building. To build up a sustainable trademark, we changed our name into Metaphysical Art Gallery. For the past sixteen years, we have maintained our practice of professionalism which in return has gained recognition from the art world. We have long cared about the art development in Taiwan, and accordingly we set promotion of local art activities as our primary goal. We promote and manage artists in a careful manner, as if we are writing this country's art history. A short list of artists who have worked with us are Kuo Po-chuan, Yu Chen-yao, Shen Yao-chu, Wang Pan-youn, Max Liu , Chen Ci-kwan, Zheng Shan-xi, Wu Hao, Winland Kuo, Jang Tarng Kuh, and etc. And it delights us that we have three out of eight winners of "National Award for Arts" so far, which is regarded the highest honor to an artist in Taiwan. They are Zheng Shan-xi (1997, the first year), Wang Pan-youn (2001, the fifth year) and Chen Ci-kwan (2004, the eighth year). We and our artists will keep our good work in the future. Moreover, we particularly enjoy holding a theme-based and centennial exhibition that is not on a regular basis. We consider this as a special occasion to share our achievement and to show our gratefulness.

¡@¡@As our management in Taiwan runs smoothly, we now have a different planning and expectation for the 21st century. The circulation of electronic newspaper on the internet is our first step toward a broader international community. Therefore, connection to the international art world is our future objective. Art is a common language that can be used to show one's confidence and special quality. We have faith in our professionalism and choices, and so do art collectors and artist.

¡@¡@Every gallery has its own culture and style, and we know very well what the duty of a gallery is in the market and for art trend. Some say that there's no turning back in the art world. Success and immortality only goes to those who can endure the test of time. We think this is true for artists and true for galleries too.
