Summary:碩士 === 國立臺南藝術大學 === 音像管理研究所 === 96 === Abstract It has been a long while that there was no professional cultural institute to promote cinema in southern Taiwan. Cinema activities of the film industry are held mostly in northern Taiwan. Based on concerns and dreams of promoting Taiwan’s film culture and the industry, the Department of Information Office of Kaohsiung City Government established Kaohsiung Film Archive. The functions of Kaohsiung Film Archive include collections, research, education, and promotion. According to the broad definition of a “museum”, Kaohsiung Film Archive can be categorized as a film museum. After entering Kaohsiung Film Archive, audience will first encounter the exhibition area, therefore, “exhibition” is the front line for the Film Archive to greet the audience and to reveal its characteristic. The researcher of this study has participated in collecting period pieces in film, planning exhibitions, and executing activities since the establishment of the Film Archive. The study investigated six real cases of theme exhibitions held in the Film Archive: “Unforgettable Love-Collections of Kaohsiung Municipal Film Archive”, “The Phantom of the Opera - Unforgettable Voices and Figures of Super Stars”, “The World Directed by Joseph Kuo”, “Classical Swordsmn Film Exhibition”, “Kaohsiung Cinema Memorandum”, “Twin Cities - Nates in France vs. Kaohsiung in Taiwan”, etc. This research categorized the exhibitions of the Film Archive into three types: 1. exhibitions of film history and period pieces archives; 2. theme exhibitions of film festivals; 3. exhibitions of international film interactions and promotion activities in different cities. This study applied these three types to investigate and analyze the content relating to film education, film archive concept, plan and application of film exhibition space, and application of films as an approach to promote a city. From an abstract imagination to a physical exhibition executed and shown to the audience, the whole process was truly a difficult challenge. The objective of this study is to look for influences caused by either outer or inner factors and to provide precious experiences to future exhibitions.
