高俊宏以在地歷史縱深的視角展開《廢墟影像晶體計畫》,以台灣直接、間接受1980年
KAO Jun-Honn's The Ruin Image Crystal Project: 10 Scenes was developed from a profound perspective on local history with serious depth and breadth. The project is based on historic images of neoliberalism in Taiwan after 1980. The significance of the work lies in the camps where he personally dwelled based on old photos of the sites. His methodology comprises ruin site research, excavation of archival documents, and the re-presentation and reenactment of historical photos. He has so far completed work on 10 sites and plans to continue. His ultimate goal is to physically act out and aestheticize the intersecting fields, casting anew the problems of neoliberalism in Taiwan. The works include the video Refraction of Li-Fong Coal Mine, in which the artist performed an art action in which he put on and removed 73 miners' work uniforms that were obtained from the ruins of Li-Fong coal mine, which in 2001 became the very last coal mine to close due to Taiwan's participation in the World Trade Organization. At the 2013 Asian Art Biennial, the artist's live performances combined various forms of art, such as records, actions, interviews, theatrical plays, and photographs.

入圍理由 Reason for Nomination
以深具在地歷史縱深的視角而展開長期的地理踏查,《廢墟 晶體影像計畫》的意義在於親身駐點的營居,並依據該處或曾有的舊照片為摹本在牆上進行素描,或安排人物在廢墟現場的演出,是現代台灣從殖民時期到後殖民的轉印浮顯,在攝影影像與文字的互文存證下,拾起其間遺落的、受傷的、遁入過往而遭到忘卻的遺跡事物,邀請觀者去醒覺、甚至去探訪這一系列地點的歷史反思。饒富意義的是在本屆國美館「亞洲藝術雙年展」的展出中,高俊宏以live art的親身演出,這裏的歷史感橫跨紀錄、行動、訪談、劇演與攝影等諸多形式,從個人的體悟到與他人相聚的社會實踐,展現了感知強度與這個計畫豐富的美學面向。提名觀察人 ─ 陳泰松
A long-term survey on geography from a profound local historic perspective, the significance of “The Ruin Image Crystal Project: 10 Scenes” lies in the onsite camps, and the paintings on the wall based on old photos of the sites, or the performances arranged to be held onsite. This is the transcribed manifestation of Taiwan’s transition from colonial period to post-colonial era; with inter-witnessing of photographic images and texts, the lost, hurt, hidden in the past and forgotten heritages are picked up, inviting viewers to wake up, or to explore and visit these places and reflect on the history. What is more intriguing is that at this year’s “Asian Art Biennial”, KAO Jun-Honn performed live himself. Here, the sense of history transcends all forms, such as records, actions, interviews, theatrical plays, and photographs; from personal realization to joint social practice with others, all aspects display the perceptive strengths, as well as the rich aesthetic dimensions of this project.
