Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts

The Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts is located in Kaohsiung City's Gushan District. It is the third fine arts museum to be established in Taiwan, following the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts in Taichung.

The Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts is still under construction, and only its main gallery building and part of its sculpture park are open so far. However, the museum has already become a major part of the Taiwan art scene. Since it first opened its doors in June 1994, the museum has been able to encompass the latest of modern thinking in such areas as native history, community consciousness, and an emphasis on environmental landscaping.

In external form, the museum's overall structure has a long horizontal appearance, with a long front corridor that delineates an open-air theater for outdoor performances and displays of large sculptures. This is also a place for the people of Kaohsiung to go and relax.
