Calligraphy Greenway in Taichung

CMP Block Museum of Arts has revitalized idle church elementary schools since 2012. Centering around the idea of borderless museum , CMP Block Museum of Arts sets different stages and platforms by street blocks and connects creativity with aesthetics to carry out the practical arts of incorporating culture into life. During the six years between 2012 and 2018, there were hundreds of art exhibitions and participations from artists as well as over 50 large-scale installation arts, forging a unique Calligraphy Greenway full of humanities and creativity.

The preparation for transformation construction started in early 2019. In line with evolution of the land, CMP Block Museum of Arts extends the ideal of Block Museum of Arts in the past, and starts on a revolutionary project at the corner of former Museum in the construction site using its strength in curation with contemporary design.

Kong-Ke is the name of the museum. "Kong" means construction and "Ke" stands for a sense of belonging and family.

Culture Promotion in Taipei

The Jen Library is at the center of Taipei, next to Daan Forest Park, which is known as the "lung of the city", and the famous Jianguo Holiday Flower Market in North Taiwan. Since its establishment in 2014, it has been committed to promoting lifestyle aesthetics such as reading, art, and nature. With a living space in homey style, it demonstrates natural life in cities. In 2019, the Jen Library promoted the two themes of "Reading" and "Nature", and hosted a total of 5 theme book exhibitions, 11 monthly reading sessions, 3 theme exhibitions at student art shop, EVERYDAY ART, and 7 workshop courses. It realized the core concept of the brand and created the image of an ideal life.

The Land Renaissance of Miaoli - CMP Village

"The CMP Village" is an experimental project demonstrating local aesthetic. With the core spirits of environmental sustainability, professionalism and lifestyle philosophy, we embrace local culture and slowly build an experimental platform for local lifestyle aesthetics at our base in an old-fashioned amusement park
at Zaoqiao, Miaolie.

In here, everyone is an "interpreter of culture". Even more, people here are in the same community which grow and live with the land. In 2019, the CMP Village continued to carry out projects of lifestyle aesthetics around the three major themes of "nature friendliness", "local friendliness", and "gender friendliness".

EVERYDAY ART

The CMP Group has hosted annual EVERYDAY ART (EDA) since 2013 as the platform for the exhibition and promotion of students' artworks. Starting from March every year, EDA would send letters to around 30 art-related schools in Taiwan to invite artworks and visit large exhibitions and joint exhibitions of students to promote and share the event with young artists.

On the one hand, EDA encourages and advocates student in the art-field to continue creation. 70% to 75% of the proceeds are given to the creators. Besides inviting experts to providereviews, there are new arts talent awards and seminars organized during the exhibition. Nominees of the new talent awards would even have the chance to present their own themed exhibitions at venues operated by the CMP Group, such as Park Lane by CMP, the Jen Library, and the CMP Block Museum of Arts. On the other hand, EDA constantly promotes the philosophy of "art is not highbrow, art is life", and hopes to become the platform where people make their first artwork purchase. EDA is proud to have many first-time artwork purchases during the exhibition, and is pleased to see the attendance of long-term collectors and art institutions.
