No matter whether the art one creates is heart-rending or stomach-turning, the objective is participation, and in this regard Artsee House has so far been a remarkably successful. Musicians frequently turn up to play short sets and amateur poets present readings of their own works. Others with a unique artistic skill, such as singing Peking Opera, will share a bit of their knowledge.
"We want to get art in places that aren't out of the way, so people can see it without even trying. And we want people to make art and exhibit it at the same time in the same space," Parmelee said.
The next Artsee House will take place July 13 at FM in Taichung and will bear the theme "urban myths." As always, the event is open to the public and participants are asked to bring at least one item with which to make art. For more information on Artsee House, check http://www.artseehouse.com
