摘要
現代藝術批評的興起和現代藝術革命、公眾美學品味、展覽民主化及藝術市場有關,生活世界的諸種觀點也因著開放社會而交流更為頻繁。在全球化語境下,台灣當代藝術評論與文化研究論述互為運用的現象已逐漸成為理所當然的現象,其中的問題性卻少有討論。這種「文化轉向」意味著什麼?有無特殊的地方脈絡意涵?本文試圖釐清其發展軌跡與理解其「癥象」。本文發現,此一新藝評現象乃由本土意識結合歐洲當代主體性論述所啟動,並非全然的文化思潮的變遷,而進一步透過因素比對可釐析傳統與新藝術批評理念的基本差異。

Abstract
The rise of modern art criticism is related to the modern art revolution, the public aesthetic taste, democratization of exhibition and the situation of art market. Interactions of various ideas in the world we live in have also become more frequent due to the current open society. In the globalized language context, mutualappropriation between Contemporary Taiwanese art criticism and discourses in cultural studies has gradually become a natural phenomenon. Nevertheless, its problems have seldom been discussed. What does this bind of 'cultural turn' in Taiwanese art criticism mean? Is there any specific local significance? This essay aims mainly at analyzing the trajectory of contemporary Taiwanese art criticism and describing its "symptomatic situation" in terms of the intervention of cultural studies. The authors have found that the new art criticism in Taiwan is motivated by a combination of native consciousness and contemporary European discourses, especially discourses on the issue of subjectivity, but not entirely an autonomous change of the development of cultural thoughts. Furthermore, an element comparison and analysis will show the fundamental differences between the traditional and new art criticisms.
