百年泉湧:北投溫泉博物館特展
2013

坐擁天然溫泉資源的北投,在日據時期因日人溫泉文化而蓬勃發展,日人離開後的50~60年代,繁華觀光的背後使北投成為著名的溫柔鄉,且因臺語片盛行,環境優美的北投吸引諸多電影前來拍攝,甚至被稱作「臺語片的好萊塢」。隨著70年代禁娼令的提出,溫泉產業逐漸沒落,北投的公共浴場便進入了一段蕭條的黑暗時期。

展覽透過開放的展示空間,提供民眾在觀展之餘欣賞和洋折衷風格的建築本體,藉由百年空間述說歷史風貌,搭配文物與圖像的展示,引領觀者回到百年前浴場的盛況之中。

Beitou and its hot spring prospered during the Japanese colonization period (1895-1945). Many Taiwanese movies were filmed here in the 1960s. These public bathrooms later declined after prostitution was criminalized in the 1970s. In such an open exhibition space, viewers can see the fusion architectural style, and imagine the prosperity along with exhibits and images.
