By participating in the Biennale, the Taipei Fine Arts Museum has garnered international attention and established itself as a voice for Taiwan. In 2007, Taiwan participated in the Biennale under the theme Atopia, which was titled to suggest Taiwan's political situation at the time. The exhibition looked back on Taiwan's vigorous social and cultural innovation, highlighted Taiwan's status as a non-state, and responded to this special status that evolved under the logic of globalization.
