Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 建築系 === 95 === While in recent years, there has been a surge in the development of private art museums in Western countries, private art museums in Taiwan have not experienced the same effect largely due to management and policy issues. This paper examines issues affecting the development of private art museums in Taiwan through an analysis of the management, social and cultural policy issues that have directly or indirectly affected the museum’s internal and external functions. It also attempts to identify and make suggestions for possible future development trends in this area.
Private art museums in Taipei were classified into two types: those supported by foundations such as the Cathay Art Museum, the Chang Foundation Museum and the Hong-Gah Museum; and those established by artists such as the Li Mei-Shu Memorial Gallery, the Yang San Lang Art Museum, the Yuyu Yang Museum and the Juming Museum. Through an examination of basic research, key factors which influence the museum development process such as management, cultural policy and legal regulations were found. After discussion of how these findings affect internal and external factors, the conclusions were used to provide practical suggestions and strategies for the future development of private art museums.
The research reveals that private art museums in Taipei exhibit the following development trends: private foundations drive managerial change, an unbalanced distribution of cultural resources has occurred as a result of government policy and long-term management is a key to rapid development. The most common issues hindering development are bureaucracy, funding, technological issues, existing government policies and government attitudes towards museums. Therefore, the author suggests that private museums seek to improve their path of development through clear and specific development goals, independent funding initiatives, involvement in the establishment of new government policy and public-private partnerships.
