不只是人生的臉龐，春天的表情就像一陣風吹過的田野，稻浪逐舞，花朵綻開，笑臉盈盈，心事不再重重，連思索的步伐都帶著自信⋯所有看見看不見的萬物，在瞬間感覺雀耀與希望。是人生立體的況味，人間映照的臉譜，以顏色以隱喻以象徵以想像以具象以率性以浪漫以悲傷以簡以繁以欲言又，以數不盡的20種形象，來勾勒青春，幻想世界，美麗未來。

奈良美智的小女孩瞪著大眼睛，好奇的，驚愕的，純真的小心翼翼地環視人生的第一步；密斯特的少年也精神抖擻的準備好來一場精彩的奇幻初體驗。春天恰似張堂庫戲弄桃花的小貓；王攀元在森林裡奔馳過秋冬尋找春天的狗；是金東囿刻畫的瑪麗蓮夢露，迷人的眼裡嘴裡頭髮裡滿滿的印著甘迺迪；是西澤千晴徘徊在玩具世界和窗外藍天的成長抉擇。

春天，是情人間甜蜜的密碼，是大千世界的面具，是藝術家潛意識的表情，是希望的啟步，是耿晧剛狂喜的米妮所象徵的純真，是蕭筑方溫暖的無奈，儘管荒木省三的少年總邁著似乎憂愁的步伐，然而每個人心中住著的那隻小熊知道，姜錫鉉知道，拈花微笑的佛陀知道，權奇秀的Dongguri也知道，在驚濤駭浪的中心，在擁擠的都市叢林背後，一逕隱藏著雲淡風清的喜悅。

比直覺又多了那麼一點不可言詮的餘韻，藝術家的心扉恆耐人推敲，可以100種不同的面貌魔術畫面。「春天的表情No.20」呈現了16位國內外藝術家關於春天的傳說，邀請您和我們一起，隨著編號20，天野喜孝凝視春天的藍眼睛，在權奇秀的花園裡散步，和三宅信太郎一起捧著可愛的骷髏頭在春暖花開的時節，冥想重生，無畏向前！

It’s not just the face of life. The face of spring is a breeze blowing over the field, the waves of rice dancing, the flowers in blossom, and the smiling faces. We are no longer burdened of anything, and in thoughts we walk with confidence. All that is visible and invisible suddenly feels joy and hope. It’s the reflections of life and the faces reflecting life; through colors, metaphors, symbols, imaginations and things, and sincerely, romantically, melancholically, hesitantly or sophisticatedly, we bring you twenty images to sketch youth, to fancy the world and to make a beautiful future.

We have Yoshitomo Nara’s little girl, staring her big eyes, with curiosity, stunned and innocence, carefully surveying the first step of her life. Meanwhile, Mr.’s young boy is prepared, spirited so, to have his fantastic, magical first experience. On the other hand, spring is but a kitten next to the peach blossom Jang Tarng-Kuh plays with, while for Wang Pan Youn, a dog in the forest runs through autumn and winter searching for spring. Spring is also Marilyn Monroe to Kim Don Yoo, her charming eyes and lips and hair all carved with the images of John Kennedy. Or, for Chiharu Nishizawa, spring are the choices to make when growing up between the toy world and under the blue sky.

Spring is the sweet, blissful code for lovers; it’s the mask of the infinite universe, the face of an artist’s subconsciousness. Spring is the beginning of hope. It’s the elated Minnie that Keng Hao Kang portrays to signify innocence and the warm helplessness for Hsiao Chu-fang. Even though Araki Shozo’s young man always carries himself with ostensibly gloomy steps, the little bear in everyone’s heart knows, as Eddie Kang, the flower-picking and smiling Buddha as well as Kwon Ki-soo’s Dongguri also know, at the center of the furious, blowing waves and behind the crowded jungle of the city, there’s always the hidden easy and quiet pleasure.

Artists have a heart that constantly calls for us to wonder and explore. With an appeal more than creative instincts and beyond words, the artists may deliver hundreds of various, magical images. In this exhibition, Face of the Spring No. 20, we present the works of 16 artists, domestic and overseas, about the legend of spring. We invite you to join us, with the number 20, gazing into spring like Yoshitaka Amano’s blue eyes or walking in Kwon Ki-soo’s garden. We may as well hold the lovely skull with Shintaro Miyake in the season of warmth and blossom, in meditation as in rebirth, marching forward and fearless.
