蘇旺伸(b.1956)
蘇旺伸，1956年出生於台灣嘉義，1979年畢業於文化大學美術系，1983年至1987年間任職淡水國中。作品曾展於台灣、中國、法國、美國、韓國、比利時、日本。作品受台北市立美術館、國立台灣美術館、高雄市立美術館、上海龍美術館收藏。
蘇旺伸的藝術創作一開始致力於抽象、硬邊與低限風格，也涉及表現主義。後來將藝術與生活、現實結合，融入對社會文化密切的觀察，使我們得以照見社會的變遷。蘇旺伸的作品畫面靜謐幽微，色層肌理細密，發散出濃鬱的懷鄉精神與念舊情感。畫中視角多從空中俯瞰或斜瞰地面，使觀者只能看到眼下的這塊「土地」，隱喻而機智地使平凡鄉土、尋常事物成為我們當下凝視的對象。
蘇旺伸的畫面構圖充滿了童趣般的天真率性，實則蘊藏巧妙與隱喻的意圖。作品中經常出現的貓狗形象，最早是曾居住的淡水處處可見流浪貓狗鬥爭的身影，其成群相爭的特性啟發他以貓狗象徵人群與人性。1998年後，蘇旺伸為他畫中的動物提供各式各樣的社會舞臺，以動物喻人，將其行為擬人化，藉以影射台灣社會因權力政治引起的各種人文亂象，奇趣不凡的姿態和謎般的畫面耐人尋味，發展出自己的獨特風格。
Su Wong-Shen(b.1956)
SU Wong-Shen, born in Chiayi, Taiwan in 1956, graduated from the Department of Fine Arts at Chinese Culture University in 1979. Between 1983 and 1987, he worked at Tamsui Junior High School. His works have been exhibited in Taiwan, China, France, the United States, South Korea, Belgium, and Japan. His works are collected by Taipei Fine Arts Museum, National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, and Long Museum in Shanghai.
Su Wong-Shen’s artistic creation initially focused on abstraction, hard-edge, and minimal styles, also involving expressionism. Later, he integrated art with life and reality, incorporating close observation of social and cultural aspects, allowing us to perceive the changes in society. Su Wong-Shen’s works depict tranquil and subtle scenes, with finely textured layers of colors, exuding a deep sense of nostalgia and attachment to his homeland. The perspective in his paintings often overlooks or slants towards the ground from above, allowing viewers to see only the “”land”” beneath, metaphorically and cleverly making ordinary rural landscapes and commonplace objects the subjects of our current gaze.
His compositions are filled with a childlike innocence, yet they conceal clever and metaphorical intentions. The recurring images of cats and dogs in his works initially stemmed from the frequent encounters with stray cats and dogs fighting in the streets of Tamsui where he once lived. The characteristic of these animals, fighting in groups, inspired him to symbolize crowds and human nature with cats and dogs. After 1998, Su Wong-Shen provided various social stages for the animals in his paintings, using animals to symbolize humans, anthropomorphizing their behaviors to reflect the various social chaos caused by political power in Taiwan. The whimsical poses and enigmatic scenes in his works are thought-provoking, developing his own unique style.
