This is the catalogue of a joint exhibition entitled The Lake: Towards a Cross-Cultural Dialogue held at Taipei Artist Village in 2005.

Yeh Weili wrote in his curatorial statement, 'The Lake' in this project, serves as a conceptual springboard and a marker for a specific geographic location, a photographic exercise, since the catalyst for this project begins with "cultural exchange", it is a pertinent context for each artist to consider. For me, this project is also a meditaion on geography, the delineation or reconstruction of a sense of place, a fieldtrip, an exercise to learn a ltttle more about where we are.'

The Lake Project is comprised of three separate components: 27 identical wooden photography portfolios each holding 24 40x50cm photographs that are exchanged among 24 visual artists; an exhibition of the 41 participants of the Lake Project (12 Australian visual artists, 12 Taiwanese visual artists, 9 writers, and 8 sound artists); and the present artist book/catalogue. This catalogue is the final and in many ways the most vital component of the Lake Project. It is the only form that fuses the photographs, sounds, and texts together intimately into a complete whole.

With short biographies of the artists and a CD-ROM (CD.000546) with digital audio tracks. Please note that only Asian artists are listed below.
