Para Site艺术空间为香港首屈一指的当代艺术中心,亦是亚洲历史最悠久、最活跃的独立艺术机构之一。成立宗旨在透过展览、出版刊物及教育项目等活动,促进在地与国际间的对话,希冀打造一个对当代艺术、社会现象提出批判性论述及理解的平台。
Para Site is Hong Kong’s leading contemporary art centre and one of the oldest and most active independent art institutions in Asia. It produces exhibitions, publications, discursive, and educational projects aimed at forging a critical understanding of local and international phenomena in art and society.
Para Site艺术空间1996年由一群香港艺术家成立,时值香港回归之际,空间的创立成了第一个展览策划的当代艺术机构。随著时代变迁,Para Site艺术空间晋身为一当代艺术中心,透过各种活动和合作,连结香港与其他国际艺术机构、美术馆、双年展及学术单位间的交流。2015年初,Para Site迁至目前活跃发展的北角/鰂鱼涌一带。历年来Para Site策划了各式活动,包括出版香港首本双语视觉艺术杂志《P/S magazine》(1997-2006),为发展本土艺术写作及论述氛围提供重要平台,以及2007至2010年举办的“策展工作培训计划”。2012年起,Para Site举办国际艺术驻留计划(International Art Residency Programme)以及年度国际研讨会,而于2015年,成立连同国际研讨会为新锐艺术工作者开放的培训教育项目。本机构活动经费来自机构赞助,基金与香港特别行政区政府的慷慨捐献。
Founded in early 1996 as an artist run space, Para Site was Hong Kong’s first exhibition-making institution of contemporary art and a crucial self-organised structure within the city’s civil society, during the uncertain period preceding its handover to Mainland China. Throughout the years, Para Site has grown into a contemporary art centre, engaged in a wide array of activities and collaborations with other art institutions, museums, and academic structures in Hong Kong and the international landscape. In early 2015, Para Site moved to greatly increased premises, in North Point/Quarry Bay. Throughout its history, Para Site’s activities have included a range of different formats, among which P/S magazine (1997-2006), a bilingual publication, which was Hong Kong’s first visual arts magazine and a central platform for the development of art writing and of a discursive scene in the city and the Curatorial Training Programme (2007-2010). Since 2012, Para Site has been running an International Art Residency Programme and has been organizing an annual international conference. This is accompanied, starting from 2015, by a new educational format aimed at training young curators and other art professionals. Para Site’s activities are made possible by the generous support of its patrons, and grants from foundations and the Government of the HKSAR.
