However, people in this champ are also members of the social network. Therefore, conflicts between close vs. open, traditional vs. creative, and other mutually opposite values are taking place and being examined at all times. In this study of “art curatorship”, the researcher started with reflection and critical examination of this champ and then guided students of the arts class to form an art curatorial team, think over the public space of the campus, and make breakthroughs, in hope of developing new dialogue mechanisms in the campus. In this study, critical action research was adopted. Perspectives and theories about installation public art, community empowerment, and cultural reproduction were integrated into the micro society of an elementary school. Results showed that creators could develop their passion for caring the public space and view the champ with empathy during the process. From this activity, the researcher also found potential disorders in the campus champ, which could be a direction of future improvement of art curatorship in campus.
