臺裔比利時籍藝術家黃耀堂（1948年）出生於澎湖，於嘉義長大，以建築師和藝術家的身份在布魯塞爾生活與工作。黃耀堂抽象的繪畫風格著重於紋理和媒材在其構圖的作用，大膽的筆觸融合東方書法的精神。繪畫主題涉及禪宗哲學、街頭藝術和對歐洲生活的體悟。黃也重視東方文化的歷史，並對台灣原住民的文化傳承投入心力。

The Belgian artist Huang Yao-Tang was born in 1948 in Penghu, Taiwan, and grew up in Chiayi. He lives and works in Brussels as an architect and artist. Influenced by arte provera and art brut, Huang developed his style of abstract painting with an emphasis on the role of texture and material in his compositions. He also occasionally uses bold brush strokes to evoke the spirit of calligraphy. His subject matters cross meditative Zen philosophy, street art, and fragments of urban life. Huang is fascinated by the diverse ethnic groups of Southeast Asia and their cultural heritage, and is gravely concerned about the indigenous tribal people in Taiwan, whose languages and culture is rapidly disappearing.
