Exhibition Announcement

《Field of Dreams》 | A Solo Exhibition by Conan Chen

~ A good plan now is better than a perfect plan that has yet to happen. ~

Some dreams don’t simply come true—they take shape through every decision to begin.

Conan’s practice spans digital art, drawing, architecture, sculpture, and derivative works, alongside personal collections, childhood memories, and video documentation. The exhibition brings these works together through eight themes—Beginning, Traces, What We Love, Space, Form, Virtuality, Extension, and Looking Back. Starting from memories and the things he loves, Conan develops his own artistic language through observation, drawing, exploration, and making.

“When technique no longer holds you back, you begin to realize that the ideas in your head are actually pretty amazing.”
🎬 Exhibition Information
📅 Exhibition｜ September 12–18, 2026
🎉 Opening｜ September 12 (Sat), 3:00–4:00 PM
📍 Venue｜ Art Floor 藝樓

Limited-edition exhibition merchandise will also be available throughout the exhibition, with 100% of the proceeds donated to Taipei Veterans Home and Harmony Home.

An Emmy-Winning Disney Animation You May Have Never Seen - Teacher's Pet

2026-08-28 14:24:11

When people think of classic Disney animation, titles like The Lion King or Lilo & Stitch often come to mind. Yet one Emmy Award-winning series remains relatively unknown to audiences in Taiwan—Teacher's Pet.

The series won two Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Special Class Animated Program, while its creator, Gary Baseman, received an Emmy for Outstanding Individual in Animation for his distinctive artistic vision.

Baseman did not come from a traditional animation background. He studied Communications at UCLA while developing his artistic voice independently. His career later expanded across illustration, contemporary art, toy design, character design, and animation.

His work blends Pop Surrealism, pop culture, childhood nostalgia, and dark humor. These qualities became the heart of Teacher's Pet, as Baseman brought his own artistic language into animation rather than following conventional visual formulas.

At Art Floor, we believe discovering Teacher's Pet is more than revisiting an overlooked Disney animation. It is a reminder that the most memorable creative work often comes from staying true to your own artistic voice.

👑 The Pinnacle of Design｜V&A Museum: A 5,000-Year Encyclopedia of Creativity

2026-07-24 20:22:32

Located in London, the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) is one of the world's greatest sources of inspiration for designers, makers, and creative minds.

As the world's leading museum of art, design, and performance, the V&A houses an extraordinary collection spanning over 5,000 years of human creativity. From Renaissance sculpture and ancient textiles to haute couture and contemporary digital design, the museum chronicles how humanity has shaped beauty, function, and culture through making.

✨ More Than Preservation — Defining What Design Means

The V&A is renowned not only for preserving history, but also for championing the idea that craftsmanship and design belong in everyday life.

The World's First Design Museum
Founded in 1852, the museum was established to improve public appreciation of art and design, bringing beauty and innovation into daily life through education and inspiration.

Home to the World's First Museum Restaurant
Designed by renowned Arts and Crafts pioneer William Morris and his contemporaries, the museum's historic refreshment rooms transformed dining into an immersive artistic experience, surrounded by exquisite tiles, stained glass, and decorative murals—a lasting expression of the V&A's belief that beauty should be part of everyday living.

🎨 Must-See Collections

Fashion Gallery
One of the world's most comprehensive fashion collections, featuring garments from the 17th century to cutting-edge contemporary couture. It reveals how fashion reflects identity, technology, and social change.

Jewellery Gallery
A remarkable display of miniature craftsmanship, showcasing everything from ancient amulets to iconic contemporary jewellery, illustrating humanity's enduring fascination with adornment.

Cast Courts
Home to monumental full-scale plaster casts of world masterpieces—including Michelangelo's David and Trajan's Column—allowing visitors to experience iconic works side by side in breathtaking scale.

🚀 Expanding the Cultural Landscape: V&A East

The V&A continues to shape the future of design through V&A East, a major cultural development in East London that has become one of the UK's most significant new creative destinations.

V&A East Storehouse
Now open to the public, the Storehouse reimagines museum storage as an accessible experience. Visitors can explore thousands of objects up close—from David Bowie's stage costumes to medieval architectural fragments—offering an unprecedented behind-the-scenes view of the museum's vast collections.

V&A East Museum
The upcoming museum focuses on contemporary creativity and interdisciplinary design, strengthening connections with youth culture, digital innovation, and East London's vibrant creative communities while exploring how design continues to shape the future.

"The V&A is not simply a museum of objects—it is a museum of ideas, craftsmanship, and the enduring relationship between design and everyday life."
