Catalogue published in conjunction with 'Broken Spectre', the first exhibition selected for Taipei Fine Arts Museum's curatorial project, curated by Yu Wei and artist collective ET@T. The exhibition featured Taiwan’s underground culture and local art scene in the 1990s based on materials from the ET@T online archive, with three commissioned artworks.

‘The three commissioned video installations by Hsu Che-Yu, Su Hui-Yu and Yu Cheng-Ta in this exhibition respectively echo three archives of Taiwan’s cultural history in the 1990s, including the Taipei Breaking Sky Festival (1995), the plays by the Taiwan Walker Theatre in its early days, and an article featuring a discussion on the queer body in Isle-Margin, a magazine of cultural criticism. This exhibition gazes again at the physical function-based cultural practices shaped by wrecked body, sensual pleasure and unmaterialised utopia during that period of time.’ -excerpted from TFAM’s website

The catalogue includes curatorial statements by Yeh Hsing-jou and Yu Wei, colour plates of the commissioned works, and artwork descriptions. Essays by Gong Jow-jiun, Chang Shih-lun, Chocorockxin Lee, and brief artists' biographies are also included.
