藝術集錄 Art Critique

Ko Chuan Huang took the essence of traditional Chinese art and nurtured it in the soils of Taiwan while widely integrating the kernel of Western art and culture. On the strength of his solid foundation in painting, Huang mixed and fused Western and Oriental aesthetics to spark an exclusive new genre of art. (2019)

With his heart and soul as an artist, Ko Chuan Huang paved way, created and left behind multiple artworks capable of a soulful communion, resonance and guidance. He fittingly expressed his inner emotional turns and twists via his aesthetics. Such complete re-presentation of one’s inner landscape is a state that all artists aspire to with life-long dedication.

黃歌川以一種文人風骨，鋪陳了多種可以會心、能夠感應、留下引導的作品。他將內心的情感與轉折，恰到好處地藉由美學表達，而這樣內在意境的完整再現，就是藝術家們一生致力追求的境界。(2019)

While searching for Ko Chuan Huang's information, I suddenly realized that his amazing experience, creativity, and records could never be expressed in a few words. It is worth mentioning that he advocated modern batik painting, developed new techniques and expressions and became a unique artist in the modern Chinese painting movement in post-war Taiwan. I think that at the time, the vivid texture in his batik paintings chimed with rubbings of Liu Guo-Song and others. Those were also manifestations of trying to integrate Eastern and Western cultures, and they are themes worthy of our in-depth exploration in the development of post-war Taiwanese art history.

前輩藝術家黃歌川的經歷之豐富，創意之高，讓人驚豔的紀錄，非一言數語所能詳盡。他提倡現代蠟染畫，開發新技法與新表現，成為戰後現代中國畫運動中獨樹一幟的藝術家。他的蠟染畫中強烈的肌理性和當時劉國松等人的拓印有異曲同工之妙，都是在嘗試東西融合的表現，是戰後美術史發展中值得吾輩深入探索的主題。 (2020)

Ko Chuan Huang is a rare gem in Taiwan’s art circles. He travelled far and wide in his commitment to publicize and promote values of Taiwan aesthetics and left behind profoundly outstanding artworks. All of his devotions and contributions should be re-introduced to everyone and receive highest regards. (2019)

Ko Chuan Huang’s art creation is not only a pursuit for re-presentation of objects through depiction, but also a complete expression of one’s inner quest for beauty. He conveyed in the painting the psychological progress and contemporary landscapes of his era with minute details.(2019)

黃歌川的藝術創作，不僅追求描繪對象物的再現，更是將內心對於美感的追求完整表達，並且將時代背景與心路歷程細膩地寄託在畫作之中。(2019)

Thinking outside the box, brave enough to make innovation.” This is a description best befitting Teacher Huang’s art and life. Teacher Huang has a wide circle of friends and an all-accommodating personality in his nature. The witticism, subtlety and liveliness of Zen could be found everywhere in Huang’s Dharma Zen Painting, and that make the viewers smile. (2019)

沒有框架勇於創新，是黃老師畢生創作的寫照；交遊廣闊善緣廣結，顯見他有與人為善的真性情。
在黃老師的達摩禪畫中，也處處體現出這種禪的機鋒、禪的靈動與活潑，常令觀賞者不覺莞爾！(2019)

The cross-disciplinary thinking model that we see today has long been put into practice by the young Ko Chuan Huang. In that era of uni-directional art development, Huang has since been utilizing diverse forms, mediums and expression approaches, while integrating different art disciplines. One may say Huang was an avant-garde cross-disciplinary forerunner. (2019)

Zhuang Lain-Dung

Director for Department of Fine Arts, National Taiwan Normal University, Artist

今日跨域整合的思維模式，早在黃歌川青年時就開始。在那個單向藝術發展的年代，他就用不同的形式、媒材與表現方式，又將不同的藝術領域，進行互相融合。黃歌川可說是極具前衛性的跨域融合的先鋒。(2019)

Ko Chuan Huang had been persistently determined on innovation when it comes to art. His works are bold and dazzling in terms of color; unrestrained by forms in terms of composition; sleek, honest and visceral with acute visual impact in terms of images; and unique in terms of artistic styles.(2009)

黃歌川在藝術上始終堅持創新的精神，其作品色彩鮮麗大膽，構圖上不拘泥於形式，畫面給人於率真利索、直抒胸懷的感覺，有較強的視覺衝擊力，在藝術風格上獨樹一幟。(2009)
