The Museum of Contemporary Art in Taipei organises a series of 4 exhibitions entitled Curators in MOCA, 2005 for which 4 local curators are asked to jointly plan 4 exhibitions from different perspectives, i.e. the application of individual ideas and aesthetics in the interpretation of modern Taiwanese culture and global vision.

Variation Xanadu is the fourth exhibition of the series with Jason Wang Chia-Chi as the curator. Variation Xanadu has borrowed the concept of Xanadu as an ideal paradise, while focusing more on the idea of 'variation of spaces' in the reality of the contemporary world. Jason Wang uses the works of the participating artists to narrate another kind of 'invisible city', where space is limited while the human thinking is unrestrained. Biographical notes of Jason Wang and the artists as well as brief description of the artworks are provided.

Other participating artist includes Werner Herzog (Germany)
