 The 2023 Taoyuan International Art Award (TIAA), organised by Taoyuan Museum of Fine Arts (TMoFA), Taiwan, selected 15 finalists in last June to participate in the exhibition and compete the awards. After a thorough secondary review by the international panel, an award ceremony was held on 21 March to reveal the final winners on the spot. The Grand Award goes to "Pull Up" by Delphine Pouillé (France), while "Migran-t, First skin: Nostalgia" by Belén Santamarina (Argentina), "I CAN NOT BE WITH YOU" by Jiao Yan (China), "The Shadow Lands Yonder" by Lee Kai-chung (Hong Kong) are the three winners of Honorable Mention, and Wang Yen-ran (Taiwan) is awarded Sojourn Award. The 15 selected artworks, including the award-winning pieces, will be exhibited from 21 March to 30 April at Taoyuan Arts Center.

The main building of TMoFA is scheduled to open in 2025. The art museum, which has been established in 2018, continues to operate in advance without hardware by means of software and organization. The pivotal TIAA therefore is one of the projects to establish international networking and global vision. TIAA operates on the biennial basis in the hope of giving artists more time to create and prepare the exhibition. The Exhibition of 2023 TIAA is opened to public from 21 March 2023, and will run to 30 April. A series of exclusive onsite tours will be put in place, all details please refer to the website and Facebook page of TMoFA.
