「全球南方」泛指在地圖上一連串由開發中國家、前殖民地及非西方文化區所組成的空間，由東南亞、南亞、西亞、非洲、拉丁美洲及太平洋群島所構成。臺灣在這當中處於一個尷尬的位置：一方面臺灣的現實處境確實為位處亞洲的開發中國家，卻因戰後的政治處境，並未參與自1955年亞非會議以來的一連串文化及政治運動，導致在心理層次上，「全球南方」之於臺灣似乎是個遙遠的議題。 The “Global South” roughly refers to a set of developing countries, former colonies and non-Western cultural regions, most of which are in Southeast Asia, South Asia, West Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Pacific Islands. Taiwan finds itself in a rather paradoxical position in this regard: although Taiwan is undeniably a developing country in Asia, it has been prevented from participating in a series of cultural and political movements since the Asian-African Conference of 1955 due to the postwar political context. As a result, psychologically, the “Global South” is viewed as a remote issue for the people of the island. 然而這種中介角色，卻似乎是臺灣歷史上反覆出現的主題：從日治時期扮演日本南侵的跳板、冷戰時期的後勤角色，一直到在艱困的外交環境中尋找盟友。本展包含了1940年代的日治時期戰爭畫、1950年代郭雪湖拜訪泰國所繪的膠彩畫、1960年代劉其偉參與越戰期間的手稿、1970年代席德進描繪的菲律賓風采、1980年代入藏，由菲律賓藝術家洪救國、新加坡藝術家鍾泗濱等重要東南亞藝術家所繪的畫作、1990年代重要中美洲藝術家的裝置作品以及二十一世紀由臺灣及各國藝術家針對歷史或當代處境所發展的作品。本展同時展出多筆來自臺灣及新加坡的文獻檔案資料，為關心本議題的研究者錨定相關的研究索引。 From serving as a springboard for the Japanese invasion of Southeast Asia during the period of Japanese rule, to providing logistics facilities during the Cold War, and then looking for allies despite its difficult diplomatic situation, the role as a go-between seems to be a recurrent theme in the history of Taiwan. The various works in the exhibition include the following: war paintings produced during the Japanese rule in the 1940s, Nihonga paintings by Kuo Hsueh Hu after his visit to Thailand in the 1950s, Liu Max C. W.’s sketches during his participation in the Vietnam War in the 1960s, Shiy De Jinn’s portrayals of the Philippines in the 1970s, paintings as part of the museum collection in the 1980s by leading Southeast Asian artists such as Ang Kiukok (the Philippines) and Cheong Soo Pieng (Singapore), installation works by important Central American artists in the 1990s, and 21st-century works by artists from Taiwan and other countries addressing historical or contemporary situations. Punctuated by numerous archives and documents from Taiwan and Singapore, the exhibition provides an index for researchers who are interested in this subject. 本次展出的作品多為美術館典藏作品，半數來自本館，其他則主要來自臺灣各美術館及基金會。許多展出作品於過去因缺乏相關脈絡的展覽機會，而長期收納於庫房之中；因此，本展除了呈現臺灣與「全球南方」戰後藝術交流史的面貌，同時亦可一窺臺灣美術館收藏中所標示的南方樣態。 Most of the works on exhibit are from museum collections, with half coming from the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and the remainder from different museums and foundations in Taiwan. Many works have sat in museum storage for the past decades, never going on display due to an absence of relevant exhibition topics. In a way, this exhibition not only features the history of post-war artistic exchanges between Taiwan and the Global South, but also offers a glimpse into art from the South in museum collections in Taiwan.
