The fascinating performance, flawlessly delivered by the actors, showcases the conflicts and sense of resignation of a man who is trapped between his dreams and family responsibilities, depicting the vicissitudes of life in a hilarious manner.

Kaohsiung Pictorial – Talking about KaohsiungOn July 31, 2014 at 23:56 a series of petrochemical gas explosions took place in Kaohsiung's bustling city center. Kaohsiung Pictorial impels us to ponder: what Kaohsiung Pictorial had exposed were Kaohsiung City's 35 years of official historical records until the development of today's green energy, creative and cultural, tourism, and convention and exhibition industries that accommodate today’s liveable city's demands; what Kaohsiung Pictorial didn't show was the silent sadness of Kaohsiung for being a heavy industry city of Taiwan. Therefore, contemplating what we see and what we don't see in the contents of Kaohsiung Pictorial, who we are, where we were, and where we are going is the profound significance of “Kaohsiung Pictorial – Talking about Kaohsiung” which is organized by the Kaohsiung Museum of History.

Life Diaries – Kaohsiung in DiariesA diary is a daily record, an intimacy of personal memory. it is meaningful because it records one’s present moment's matters. it is significant because it contains an extensive series of data. The diaries that are exhibited in this exhibition are the treasures from the digital archive of the institute of Taiwan History of Academia Sinica. A section "Kaohsiung in Diaries" was especially designed which exclusively collects diarists' writings about Kaohsiung. The Museum hopes visitors can relate to today's Kaohsiung what the diarists' impressions were of Kaohsiung.

He is the skinny, sickly son of two marvelously athletic parents. For a while, he dreams of a stronger, fitter, more charismatic older brother to compensate for his own feelings of inadequacy. Only gradually does he learn of his parents' tragic past and that he has a sibling — a half-brother named Simon, his father's first son. Simon is the big secret, but the discovery opens the door to further revelations and deeper enigmas. François knows that his parents met sometime around the war, and he imagines their courtship and marriage in the shadow of atrocities which nobody talks about any more.

Through the course of the trial, the events are related from the points of view of the rape victim, the bandit, and even the ghost of the murdered man, resurrected for the occasion by a medium. Each of the travelers has a different version of the crime -- and each is telling the "truth," so far as they understand the truth.

Media is Everything—Art of Lu Ming-teLu stresses that, in this era of information media, the force of media is something that cannot be ignored. Looking back at the development of Western art, starting from Dadaism and Pop Art to the artists’ embrace of found objects and mass media, Lu predicted back in 1998 that such a transition would have a significant influence on Taiwan’s art development in the future. His prediction seemed to have served as a trailblazer, providing guidance for the mainstream trends of Taiwan’s art development in the following two or three decades. From this exhibition, comprising the four main themes of Media Expansion, Environmental Installation, Encounter with Technology, and Cultural Mimicry, viewers can see how Lu has been adhering to his core concept and continuing with his artistic creation through dialogues with, conversion, citation and/or juxtaposition of different media and materials to reveal their existing value systems.

Kaohsiung Awards 2015The 2015 Kaohsiung Awards Competition received works submitted by approximately 600 artists around Taiwan. After careful selection and discussion among the judges, totally five winners of the Kaohsiung Awards, eight winners of the Excellent Work Awards, and three winners of the Observer Awards were decided along with the other works selected for the Kaohsiung Awards Exhibition this year. in addition, thanks to the support from the HCS Calligraphy Foundation, the Kaohsiung Awards Competition also started to offer the “HCS Special Award for Calligraphy/Seal-engraving Works” this year. Because all the past winners of the Kaohsiung Awards are now active in the art field as emerging artists at home or even abroad, the Competition has been seen as an important touchstone and milestone of career development for many aspiring artists. With all the talented artists competing against one another for the highest honor each year, the Kaohsiung Awards Competition and its exhibition have become an exciting center of attention for many members of the art world not only from Taiwan but also from other countries.

A Voyage to the South– Contemporary Images from the Museum CollectionTaiwan, a beautiful island on the circum-Pacific island arc, attracted missionaries and scholars from the West hundreds of years ago, later became home to people migrating out of China after WWii, and then received people migrating from countries south of it during its economic take-off. Nowadays, more and more people in Taiwan have emigrated or are emigrating to other places on the world map amidst the trend of globalization. There is no telling now which place is the place of origin and which is a foreign place for people originally living in Taiwan and for those from other countries. Through the imagination of “traveling” and “ocean,” this exhibition creates for viewers imaginative experiences of landing onshore in the south of Taiwan after a seaborne voyage. The works in this exhibition are mostly the contemporary works collected by KMFA. in this exhibition, viewers can be temporarily released from the positions as “spectators” or “local people” and put themselves into the shoes of “foreigners”, appreciating the stories about “here” and “there”, about different people immigrating into or emigrating out of this island.

KUSAMA YAYOI, A Dream I DreamedHaving made her name in New York’s avant-garde art scene since the late 1950s, Kusama Yayoi (Japanese, 1929- ) has worked in a wide variety of styles and media, including surrealism, abstract expressionism, minimalism, pop art, performance art, etc., and still continues to dazzle the world with her iconic polka dots. She has held many large retrospective and touring exhibitions at major modern art museums in Europe and America in recent years, receiving a highly favorable response, and has collaborated with Louis Vuitton, launching a Kusama fashion trend. This Asian touring exhibition got underway in 2013; after touring to Daegu, Shanghai, and Seoul, it will come to Taiwan in 2015 and first be held at the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts. The exhibition showcases Kusama’s most recent works while presenting the rich creative context and unique features of her art from the past six decades. Containing close to 120 artworks: paintings, sculptures, installations, and video works, this Kusama solo exhibition will be unprecedented in Taiwan.

An Instant is Eternity— 2015 Exhibition of Richard Lin: Donations to the Museum Collection
in 2010, the KMFA held the One Is Everything: 50 Years of Works by Richard Lin exhibition, giving local viewers a comprehensive introduction to Richard Lin, a master of modernism who was born in Taiwan, moved abroad, and engaged actively in artistic creation across different fields of both Eastern and Western art. Regrettably, Lin passed away in 2011 and Ms. Yan Siao-liang, his wife, decided to donate a generous quantity of his works to the KMFA. Three years after Lin’s passing, the KMFA holds this exhibition, displaying mostly the works from Ms. Yan’s donations and several works borrowed from other art institutions. it is hoped that, through this exhibition, the public can appreciate again the works of an art master who has left the world and also appreciate the timeless values of art.

Gallery for Citizens: Banquet of Lights and Chromas - Glass Art of Chiu-Ter ChiuChiu-Ter Chiu has been persistently working with glass for over twenty years, fascinated by the unique beauty in the plasticity and crystal clear quality of glass, Chiu’s research focuses on the artistic presentation of glass, as well as exploring the mysterious and beautiful charm of glass as a material. Presenting forms and expressions from continuous melting and seizing experiment performed at high temperature; from the deconstruction of shape and color, seeking out new imagery and emotions that develops on the traditional style, using abstract art forms to express the inner feelings and contemplates the encounter of ideas. Chiu’s inspiration originates from an intuitive feel for the beauty and harmony of nature, so themes and concepts of Chiu’s work are often based on the response to life experiences and emotions, hoping to create a new artistic expression and context.Chiu-Ter Chiu ; Entertain ; Glass mixed media ; 70×30×126cm ; 2009
