交陪美學論: 當代藝術面向近未來神祇 (Traditional Chinese Edition)
● 龔卓軍「近未來的交陪：台南蕭壠國際當代藝術節」相關論述首次有系統集結成書。
● 臺灣獨特之「交陪美學論」第一本專書
● 評論爬梳國內外相關重要文獻、學術研究、及當代重要展覽、影像、表演、藝術季等作品
「交陪 Kau-Puê」——含有交易、買取之意。（廈門話）
交際應酬、互盡友誼、彼此密切往來。（臺詞辭典）
街境守望、社區聯防、友境出陣、誼廟互挺。（《臺南府城聯境組織研究》）
五百年前，西方社會幾乎所有人都擁有對神或魔性力量的信仰，至今這種信仰只是眾多選項之一。五百年後，經過西方和日本的殖民、政權交替，臺灣民間信仰與廟宇文化中的交陪組織，至今仍維持活力不墜，影響著庶民社會的文化藝術表現語彙。
本書作者龔卓軍任教於臺南藝術大學藝術創作理論研究所，為近年臺灣最具能量、創意和影響力的藝術學者及策展人之一。 二〇一七年在臺南蕭壠文化園區策展之「近未來的交陪：蕭壠國際當代藝術節」，以紮實的田野調查先行，將臺灣民俗與宗教文化以藝術理論、美學觀點梳理廓清，並邀集跨域藝術家進行創作上的精彩交陪對作，令此展備受好評迴響，引起廣泛討論，並獲第十六屆台新藝術獎年度大獎肯定。此後作者延續策展及書寫藝術評論不輟，逐步建構出臺灣獨有的「交陪美學」概念。
本書為作者繼二〇〇七年《身體部署》的當代哲學理論之後，首度集結系列評論，直陳其十年策展實踐內蘊的藝術理論，讓地方文化面向世界文化，藉廟會藝術提煉當代藝術，從民間廟宇之間的動態「交陪境」，打造出一條屬於臺灣文化蘊育的獨特美學思路。
書中分成「理論」、「影像」、「展演」、「跨域」四大部分，以系列性的策展研究書寫，構築爬梳「交陪美學」的深層內涵，試圖探討當代藝術和民間藝術之間的交互滲透和內在張力，勾勒出藝術話語新路徑。
