Crossing Boundaries–Gallery Curatorial Narratives

Founder of Nunu Fine Art, Nunu Hung, shared from a practical business perspective how she selects and builds relationships with collaborating artists, organises exhibitions, engages with the commercial market of contemporary art, and—most importantly—how she translates artistic creation into a mode of knowledge transmission.

After leaving New York in 2014, Nunu Hung returned to Taiwan and established the Nunu Fine Art gallery. “Small but Fine” has always been the gallery’s guiding motto. Positioned as a commercial gallery, Nunu Fine Art has presented dozens of remarkable contemporary art exhibitions, balancing both academic depth and market relevance. It has invited numerous internationally active artists—exhibited in art museums and biennales around the world—to Taiwan, showcasing their work to local audiences. The gallery also supports artists in navigating between institutional museum systems and smaller private exhibitions, thereby activating the potential of the commercial gallery as a cultural agent.

In this seminar, Nunu presented works by Contino Hernández from the Cuba Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, alongside a series of impressive past collaborations with artists.
