ABOUT EXHIBITION｜

102當代藝術空間此次特別邀請到南部資深藝術家蘇志徹舉辦個展，這是他睽違十三年後再度於台南展出。蘇志徹自國立藝專美術科（現國立臺灣藝術大學）畢業後四十多年來，與妻子林麗華賢伉儷長期深耕於高雄畫壇，創立午馬畫會、協創高雄市現代畫學會、曾為《藝術界》及《南方藝術》雜誌編輯委員，高雄市立美術館籌備研究員及駁二藝術特區發起人之一。

蘇志徹自學生時代開始熱衷於超現實主義，不論是他於英國倫敦大學就讀研究所時期詮釋的「空間的轉換」，或是返台後投入創作「出入之間」系列的作品，皆對空間環境表達關切與質疑，並尋找現實與幻想之間的關聯。

此次個展《不一樣的角度》延續了之前系列作品的創作理念。每個人都有自己習慣的觀看角度，但是觀看一旦成為一種習慣之後，在觀看時極易失去專注力，無法留下觀後記憶，形成所謂的「有看沒有到」。觀看的行為本身也將不再有趣迷人，而觀看的結果也更難轉換成視覺藝術。繪畫為視覺藝術的靈魂，希冀能透過繪畫作品呈現藝術家的觀看心得與創作靈魂，以打破大眾受限的觀看角度及視覺習慣。

102 Art is honored to invite Su Zhi-Che, the experienced artist from the South Taiwan to host his personal art exhibition in Tainan for the first time in 13 years. Su Zhi-Che was graduated in College of the Fine Art at National Taiwan University of Art. He has been dedicating to passion and work of art with his wife Lin Li-Hua in Kaohsiung for 40 years since he graduated. They established many well-known organizations for art , such as Wu-Ma Group and Modern Art Association of Kaohsiung, while being the founder of these art organizations, they were also the major editors of the National Taiwan art magazine “The Art World” and “Hot Art”, and the major researchers of Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts and The Pier-2 Art Center.

Su Zhi-Che has been addicted to surrealism since he was a student. Regardless to the subject “abstraction of the space” which he drew during his time at the London University of the Great Britain, or the series of the work he was making concerning the space of art dimension between reality and fantasy. He holds a great care, passion and doubt toward any topic which related to space and environment, and seeks for the connection between the reality and the fantasy.

In his personal exhibition “From different perspectives” this time, it contains the original artistic idea and perspectives from his previous exhibition. They explained that every person on the earth has their own behavior and the way which they see the world. However, he also defined that just how easily people lose concentration toward the details when viewing and seeing the things around them becomes a habit. Also people are incapable of recording the memory of what they saw afterward. Even if they can, the memory can be quite vague. In other words, they see the things around them, but they are unable of memorizing the details as their eyes are on the subject but their hearts are not. In regards of such a matter, watching and viewing a piece of art work are no longer intriguing but meaningless. The result toward that is that people is losing the sense of appreciating any art work as an “ART”. Su Zhi-Che claims that the visuality is considered the soul part of any art work, and it is also to be the main channel which an artist can truly to express his or her heart and personal philosophy from. He wishes to change the way of how people see and appreciate the art by showing the soul and heart of an artist through painting.
