The collaboration breaks the boundary between art and everyday life, allowing art to be not only observed but also touched, taken home, and shared. This curated segment leverages the exclusive art reproduction technology developed by the AEA VITART team. Through a proprietary process that produces art objects that are weather-resistant and touchable, we overcome the preservation challenges of high-value original works in public spaces. Artworks are transformed into approachable lifestyle selections — such as art cards, desktop wall art, reproduction prints, and home lighting fixtures — allowing art to naturally integrate into daily life as a gentle companion.
The Art Equity Association is committed to bringing art education into rural and under-served schools, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to engage with art, cultivate aesthetic awareness, and express themselves. In this curation, the Association’s public-good mission continues: while consumers select their favorite art works, they also actively support art education. This helps expand the value of art beyond aesthetics into positive social impact.
At different city locations, TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE also adapts its curation to reflect local culture.
- In TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Songshan Store, large-scale themed pieces (such as cat-series works) are showcased with premium island display frames, creating a gallery-like “limited-time exhibition zone.”
In TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Nangang Store, art works are naturally integrated with books, stationery, and lifestyle items in the display, enhancing engagement with SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) to attract broader corporate and public attention.
In TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Kaohsiung Dali Store, younger-oriented Pop Art (TWZOE series) and traditional lacquer paintings are introduced, using the department-store environment’s foot traffic to explore diverse audiences’ responses to healing art.
Moreover, the AEA is currently holding a major public touring exhibition “Islands of Ripple” (汨汨之島)— a key component of the 2026 White Box Extended Project — at Yanchengpu Station, Kaohsiung MRT(高雄捷運鹽埕埔站) bringing a warm, open urban gallery experience to the city.
With lifestyle proposals as the starting point, TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE continues to respond to the spirit of ESG through curation and selected art pieces, hoping to make art a common language that connects people, cities, and society.
