Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中山大學 === 社會學系碩士班 === 101 === This paper explores how Taiwanese curators represent ‘new immigrant women’ in their curatorial speech as they encounter the trends of new immigrants as part of multiculturalism in Taiwan. In-depth interview and analysis of exhibitions are applied to unveil the gender, race and class meanings behind the curators’ planning of exhibition on this immigrant group. From interview data and the analysis of two exhibitions, we find that the gendered and racialized imaginations of this female immigrant group embedded in Taiwan’s patriarchy society frame curators’ exhibition practices. However, the power relationships between the curators and the gazed Other are not static, and the anxiety of how to locate the Other in Taiwan society by the colonizing agents makes it more imminent to keep the female immigrants in the private sphere.
