TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The ninth edition of “Art Taichung,” which will take place next month, promises to offer artworks galore, with 2,500 items from Taiwan and abroad to be on show.

The expo, originally scheduled for July, will be held at Millennium Hotel Taichung from Dec. 3-5. It will see over 100 exhibitors presenting works by more than 400 artists, wrote CNA.

Organized by the Taiwan Art Gallery Association (TAGA), Art Taichung has been an annual platform connecting art collectors with creators since 2013. Deals are struck on about 80% of the pieces introduced by galleries every year, according to TAGA.

In recent years, Art Taichung has also collaborated with a host of local awards to help outstanding budding Taiwanese artists make a debut in the thriving art market. The Chung Shan Art Youth Awards and Luminous Art Marketing are among those that have partnered with the event organizer.
