【Skin The Artist-Who Is Invited for Dinner? / 剥皮計畫-誰來晚餐？】
這是一年畫廊最新的一系列與藝術家合作的計畫。
這個計畫希望以適合藝術家及畫廊特質的方式來剖析藝術家，在這整個計畫的過程中，我們想提供給觀眾的是，不同於一般只展出完成作品的展覽模式，而是觀者能透過這個計畫，看見或閱讀到創作者最真實、或不同於作品印象的一面，這個角度對藝術家來說或許無趣了一點，但是，對一個真正想要了解藝術家到底在做什麼的人，或是想要成為藝術創作者的人來說，應該很有趣。
一年畫廊有三個房間，分別呈現剥皮計畫藝術家現在、過去的作品歷程，另外，於現場同時播放與藝術家共進晚餐的過程記錄。

1 year gallery has 3 small rooms.
We use these 3 rooms for a show.
1st room is for artist's new original work. This room is same with usual gallery.
2nd room is for past work's reference. We ask artist gives us past work photo and text about those art works. This room is like an artist book or an artist catalog.
3rd room has a video, which is a view of a dinner conversation with artist. Lanya invites an artist for dinner before the show. Through the dinner we have a conversation about his or her art work and a life as an artist. The video and what is called artist talk video is similar, but this video is more in a relaxed state. While the artist eats dinner, he or she has a chat about "topics about art" and "topics no related with art". While the artist eats dinner, he or she has a chat about "topics about art" and "topics no related with art". All topics are not classified.

Actually what do we want to do?
We want to know a kind of secret of artist. Of course a wise man may say "if you want to know, just watch the art work carefully, everything what you want to know are there." But we want to know more, and if we can ask to the artist directly, it is useful, because the artist is still alive and standing in front of us.
And we know if the artist can talk about his or her art work perfectly, they need not make art work. We can only talk about his or her art like a removing the outer skin from an onion.
And we don't mind how people thinks our activity. Because our project is run by only our curiosity about artists who we are interested in. Maybe some people will have same curiosity with us. If those people will come to see, we will be happy.
