黃則修先生(1930-2014),兼具教育家、新聞記者暨攝影家等多重身分,更為業界譽稱為「臺灣攝影獨行俠」。1951年兼任日本《朝日新聞》、聯合電視駐臺攝影記者;1961年舉行「龍山寺」攝影個展、1962年與吳東興舉辦「被遺忘的樂園—野柳」雙人攝影展,被譽為「臺灣攝影史『專題攝影展』之濫觴」。以上二展,其後更引起政府對歷史文化古蹟的重視,促使野柳被設定為國家觀光景點。
1967年,擔任徵信新聞報(現中國時報)顧問,為臺灣創設第一座新聞彩印工廠,隔年以世界第一部美國高斯平板彩色輪轉機,印製臺灣首份彩色報紙,受到國際矚目,獲登於1980年的《世界名人錄》。本作透過水面倒影的細膩觀察,表現優游塘中的錦鯉、塘邊柳樹與中正紀念堂建築屋頂一角,突顯三者形色之間的差異與關係,構圖雖然簡單卻生動靈活,形成引發觀者會心一笑的有趣畫面。
本作呈現有如夢境般的視覺意象之美,藉由池塘水面的漣漪起伏,模糊了原有景物的輪廓界線,營造柳樹婆娑起舞之優美幻象,堅毅雄偉的二廳院屋頂亦如柔軟紗裙般搖曳生姿,灰白天空與湛藍池水形成漸層效果,水下錦鯉悠游其中,白紅相間,宛若身處人間樂園。整體畫面,將不同高度、位置的景物置放於同一構圖之中,營造攝影獨有的視覺效果,猶如超現實般的奇幻美景。(505字)
Known as the “Lone Ranger of Taiwanese photography,” Huang Tse-Hsiu (1930-2014) was a multifaceted figure who served as an educator, journalist, and photographer. In 1951, he worked as a photojournalist for the Japanese newspaper “Asahi Shimbun” and United Television. In 1961, Huang held a solo exhibition titled “Longshan Temple”, followed by a dual photography exhibition with Wu Tung-Hsing titled “The Forgotten Paradise - Yehliu” in 1962, which was hailed as “the genesis of thematic photography exhibitions in Taiwanese photography history”. These exhibitions spurred government recognition of historical and cultural landmarks, leading to the designation of Yehliu as a national tourist attraction.
In 1967, he became a consultant for the Intelligence News Daily (now China Times) and established Taiwan’s first color newspaper printing plant. The following year, using the world’s first American-made Goss color web offset press, he printed Taiwan’s first color newspaper, attracting international attention and earning him a place in the 1980 edition of Who’s Who in the World. This artwork depicts the serene atmosphere of a pond with colorful carp, willow trees along the edge of the pond, and a corner of the roof of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall through delicate observations of water reflections. It highlights the differences and relationships between these elements with a simple yet vibrant composition that makes the viewer smile.
The artwork presents a dreamlike visual beauty, blurring the contours of the original scenery through the ripples on the surface of the pond, creating a graceful illusion of dancing willow trees and the majestic roof of the National Concert Hall swaying like a soft veil. The gradient effect between the grayish-white sky and the deep blue water creates a paradisiacal setting where red and white carp swim leisurely like a heavenly paradise. Overall, the composition places elements of different heights and positions within the same frame, creating a unique visual effect characteristic of photography, similar to a surreal fantasy landscape.
