EP Art Museum

Tai Sheng-Yi, the founder of EP Art Museum, has collected his paintings for more than forty-five years. He loved painting and kept practicing his painting skill at least one day per week during childhood. Until now, he has collected five hundred to six hundred paintings by himself and all of the artworks exhibited at EP Art Museum are oil paintings. Meanwhile, this is his first art exhibition at the public in his life.

On the other hand, there are three hundred thousand private art museums in Japan whilst there are less than thirty private art museums in Taiwan. Due to the lack of private art museum resources in Taiwan, Tai Sheng-Yi wants to provide a creative and artistic environment in Chitou, Taiwan.
