This catalogue of a group exhibition by artists from Taiwan and Canada, was held at Eslite Vision in August 2004. Participating artists from Canada include: Stan Douglas, Sylvia G. Borda, Pravin Pillay and Antonia Hirsch.

'The exhibition “Ruins and Civilization” juxtaposes opposing images of historical process: decline and progress, death and continuation. ... In the exhibition, the concept of “ruins” not only represents memory and its traces in space, but also includes all things visible and invisible that are forgotten, gradually declining and dying, and things disappearing that shape our subjectivity and consciousness.' - from the event website at http://ruins.bluecircus.net/archives/001996.html . More information about the event and the artists are available in the website.
