法國Les Gens d’Uterpan 團體與台灣稻草人現代舞團合作《台南拓樸》（Topologie Tainan）計畫，從2014 年7 月17 日到26 日這10 天期間，五名舞者每日兩次以固定 的路線分別穿梭於台南市中西區。這並不是一個戶外演出的表演藝術作品，而是一種 介入（intervention）的行動。《台南拓樸》一方面是對既定的舞蹈表演藝術框架與常 規（convention）的挑戰，另一方面又是對台南公共空間生產的介入。本文藉由Henri Levebvre 空間生產的空間實務、空間再現與再現空間的三元辯證概念，來檢視《台南 拓樸》行動介入赤崁樓、公園國小校園、新光三越百貨公司中山店、水萍塭公園、孔 廟廣場、大路、圓環、騎樓、小巷等各種台南公共空間，揭示其不同的實質意涵。
從台南城市空間發展歷程、表演藝術常規與行動介入的角度出發，本文對《台南拓樸》計畫進行一種可能的詮釋（但不是唯一的詮釋），藉由論述來解析與回應《台南拓樸》的核心構思與行動，期能增添這個介入行動被注意、被討論、及被重新詮釋的可能性，而不致於任其被隱沒於日常生活洪流之中。

Topologie Tainan is a project realized through joint cooperation between Les Gens d’Uterpan from France and Scarecrow Contemporary Dance Company from Taiwan. In this project, five dancers walk through their own separate predetermined routes in West Central District of Tainan city, twice a day from 17th to 26th July 2014. This is not a work of performing art performed outdoors, but an act of intervention. Topologie Tainan is a challenge to the frame and conventions of dance as a genre of performing art. It is also an intervention into certain public spaces in Tainan city. Illuminated through Henri Lefebvre’s perspectives of analyzing the production of space via spatial practice, representations of space, and representational spaces, the connotation of various public spaces in Tainan can be revealed by interpreting the act of intervention into the production of those public spaces, including Fort Provintia (Chihkan Tower), Tainan Municipal Gongyuan Elementary School campus, Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Department Store Tainan Zhongshan, Shuipingwen Park, Confucius Temple yard, streets, roundabouts, arcades, and alleys.
Through the perspectives of an act of intervention, conventions of performing art practices, and the production of spaces in Tainan city, this research offers an interpretation of Topologie Tainan. In so doing hopes to unveil and respond to the designation and realization of Topologie Tainan, or the essential value of this act of intervention would otherwise be concealed in daily life and thus go unnoticed.
