The curatorial theme of the “Post-Victory: Fine Arts Awards” consists of excluding subjective and objective positions from the process of the competition. It focuses on following up on the development or transformation of creative potential in the experimentation and concepts of Taiwanese artists after they have participated in a representative art competition. The artists participating in “Post-Victory: Fine Arts Award” will put on display two works: a pre-award and a post-award work. At their exhibition sites, there will also be reproductions of the original prize-winning artworks. How do you have artists stand out even after winning an award, and enable them to enter into market oriented art systems, such as galleries, auction companies, etc.,? Also, how can they cooperate with one another to further develop an artist’s creative career?

For the 15th anniversary of Soka Beijing, we selected 6 particularly representative artists who embody an “Eastern Culture Spirit”: Liang Quan (1940s), Hong Ling (1950s), Moon Bong-Sun (1960s), Zeng Jianyong and Tan Jun (1970s), and Wang Mengsha (1980s). This event attempts to explore different art styles through the works of these 6 artists from different eras, outlining the constantly developing, diverse, and three-dimensional appearances of contemporary Eastern ink-wash painting.
