The Little Amadeus Baby Concert, which
was first introduced by the KSAF, is the
first program in Taiwan designed to allow
infants between the ages of 0 and 3 to
listen to musical pieces. These pieces
were carefully selected to enable babies to
hear a variety of instruments with different
tones and playing styles. This program is
also unique in Taiwan for its “Kangaroo
with a Joey” tickets. These tickets allow
infants to listen to music comfortably
from the warm embrace of their parents
and enjoy a fresh experience with seats
designed for parents and children together.
In addition to receiving rave reviews, this
activity also gives young parents, who are
unable to attend social events because
of their children, an opportunity to enjoy
music together with their babies. It looks
like there’s a new crowd of classical music
fans in Kaohsiung!

With a new program for this year, the Little
Amadeus Baby Concert will take infants
and their parents on a musical journey.
The concert will include performances of
classic arias from the opera master Bizet,
such as the Toreador Song, which will
whisk the audience away to the arenas of
Spain. The program also includes a number
of excellent pieces from the classic ballet
Swan Lake, such as the Dance of the Little
Swans and the Spanish Dance, which will
make the children in the audience and their
parents feel as if they are attending a lively
banquet in a Russian castle. In addition,
Andrea Giuffredi, an Italian trumpet player
whose work straddles both classical and
popular music, has also been invited to
perform familiar Italian ballads and songs.

Performances for the whole family
are being prepared for the 5th Annual
Kaohsiung Spring Arts Festival (KSAF) in
2014. Parents can bring their children and
step together into the field of performing
arts. A variety of parent-child programs will
be held every month from March to July.
Cultural activities appropriate for infants,
children, and even adolescents will be
conducted. Among these events, the Little
Amadeus Baby Concert, which received
popular acclaim upon its debut last year,
will be held once again in May of this year.

Premiered in 1870, Coppelia is the most
intriguing ballet. How did a peculiar
doctor turn his favorite doll into a real
girl? The magical, captivating yet
entertaining plot with dazzling
impeccable ballet technique is a classic
comic ballet that is suitable for both
young and old.
It is never too late to begin to appreciate
music from childhood, and only when
appreciating music begins in infancy can
it be considered early! Parents, you and
your children are invited to experience the
charm of classical music. Allow music to
become a natural part of family life. The
KSAF hopes to continue to build an ideal
site for children’s art education and to set
a permanent foundation for the performing
arts in Kaohsiung!

The choreographic works of this esteemed master are dazzling and fascinating.
He not only dances, but also speaks, criticizes, cares and has sympathy for others.
The performance is in Kaohsiung and there are only two sessions,
which you cannot afford to miss!

Man Ray
Man Ray (1890 – 1976) was an American modernist artist spent most of his career in Paris. He
was a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements. He produced major works in
a variety of media but considered himself a painter above all. He was best known in the art world
for his avant-garde photography, and he was a renowned fashion and portrait photographer. Ray is
also noted for his works with photograms, which he called “rayographs” in reference to himself.
With totally 156 works by Man Ray on display, this exhibiton is a comprehensive presentation of
his artistic creation in different stages.

Kaohsiung Film Archive
With the rise of pop culture and consumerism, Pop Art as a movement explored the public life and took prominence in the western
art scene in the 60s. It later on also became the inspiration for contemporary Asian artists. This current exhibition, curated by British
curator Stephen McCoubrey, presents important works from the private collection of UBS. Spanning across the past half century, these
works begin with the classic American Pop Art of the 60s, move on to the most influential European artists during the 80s and 90s, and
conclude with the most exciting artists of the contemporary Asian art scene. Works of artists
including Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg demonstrate many different
interpretations on the contemporary consumer culture with their diverse and accessible
presentation methods. From past to present, from the classic to the avant garde, from the
west to the east, these works invite us to reflect on our society and the everyday life.

Pop Art Factory─
Heating‧Cooling‧Contemporary Art in Taiwan
The exhibition intends to comb through the transformation and influence of the “Pop Art” spirit on Taiwan’s art development from
two dimensions. The first one is to look at how this Western art movement has converged and merged with local objects and
symbols in Taiwan from the historical perspective. This dimension also reflects the diversified facets of Taiwan’s history as a world
factory. The second dimension is to look at how Taiwanese artists have “processed” and “reproduced” the forms and spirit of Pop
Art, adding different kinds of brand-new and fun interpretations to its themes, materials and spirit. From this exhibition, viewers can
appreciate how artists incorporate their careful observation of local living environments and
contexts in their processing of fine art into something more appealing to the general public’s
taste, and how artists play with symbols from folk culture, cartoons, politics, or business in
creating many interesting and inspiring works that discuss the relationships among artistic
creation, popular culture, social issues and consumerism.

Because of his print masterpieces and outstanding achievements in the education and promotion of the
art of printmaking, Liao is reputed as “Father of Modern Printmaking in Taiwan”, who has won a lot of major
international awards and whose works have been collected by major art museums at home and abroad.
Undoubtedly, Liao’s print works are already well-known and well-discussed in Taiwan. However, it is only by
looking at the full picture of Liao’s life as an artist that we can better understand this master and his art and
then have deeper appreciation of its soul-touching beauty. This exhibition displays over 100 works created
by Liao using different kinds of media such as print, oil painting and sketching. It is the first exhibition in
Taiwan that takes an unprecedentedly comprehensive retrospective of Liao’s art, presenting a symphony of
artistic creativity and life wisdom in front of viewers.

Commemorative Exhibition of Hsu Su-chen
Hsu found the inspirational nutrition and energy for her artistic creation from her cross-disciplinary experiences in medical science,
theatrical performance, artistic creation and community building. Within just a few years, she curated many diversified exhibitions
and created an abundance of works in different varieties. She received several awards both at home
and abroad for her exhibition curation and artistic creation. In 2010, she was recognized with the 8th
Taishin Arts Award for Visual Art. Born in Kaohsiung in 1966, Hsu died of illness in January 2013. Before
she passed away, she donated the majority of her works to Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts. This
exhibition is held to commemorate this outstanding female artist who suffered a premature death,
showcasing her works from 2001 to 2013. This exhibition is the first and also maybe the last of its kind
to fully present Hsu’s works for viewers to appreciate her legacy in whole.

The annual Kaohsiung Awards attract many outstanding artists in Taiwan to contend for one of the highest honors in Taiwan’s art
circle. Most of the participants in this activity over the past years are now still active artists and many are starting to gain recognition
locally and internationally. Therefore, the Kaohsiung Awards have been widely regarded by all the enthusiastic artists as an important
milestone in their artistic careers. The Kaohsiung Awards in 2014 attracted about six hundred artists from every corner of Taiwan
who submitted works. After rounds of careful selection and review, five winners of the Kaohsiung
Awards were selected; also, there were nine winners of “Excellent Work“ Award, three winners
of Observer’s Award, and several winners of Honorable Mention. The winning works demonstrate
different levels of artistic strength and diversity, rich in vibrant vigor of artistic creation. Showcasing
all the winning works, this exhibition is an exciting feast of art that cannot be missed.

Between Slow and Fast, Temporary and Eternal MingChueh Hung Exhibition
From his practice of abstract painting, Hong Ming-jue found a latent “stream of time” in which the
sub-consciousness and consciousness are intertwined to represent ever-changing phenomena in
his works. Viewers are compelled to find pauses in the fast-changing time and space depicted in
his works and slowly gaze at the seemingly familiar but strange images. In this process, there is
a subtle tug-of-war between fast (the works) and slow (the viewers), between speed and pause.
This kind of “slow vs. fast” contrast also echoes with the discussion of “tangible existence vs.

intangible existence” in his works.

Gifts can bring people a sense of happiness. Behind each gift, there are often many emotions, thoughts and best wishes
intertwined together. The Chinese title of this exhibition is homophonic with kau kau tînn, an expression from the Taiwanese
dialect, which means “intertwined”. This is an ideal expression to represent the delicateness, flexibility and easiness to entangle
of fibers. Based on the theme of textile art, this exhibition features installation works and
other forms of artworks created by the invited artists using different kinds of natural or manmade fibers and other soft materials. The artists weave into their works their emotions, shared
thoughts and best wishes as if they are preparing gifts for viewers. Do you want to know what
“fibers” really are? Cotton fibers, paper mulberry bark fibers, silk threads, wool yarns, cowhide
fibers, aluminum wires…. Do you know all these materials? Do you know how the artists
can use fibers to create special gifts? Come and explore the beauty and fun of fiber art! Do it
yourself and create your own special gifts for yourself, family and friends!

A Home for Everyone - A Place to Live, not to Sleep
The predecessor of Cishan Living Cultural Park is the Former Gushan Elementary School which is one of the
only two historic school buildings during the Japanese Occupation in Kaohsiung. In 2000, after the School was
relocated, the Bureau of Cultural Affairs restored the buildings and improved the landscape. Through the reutilization approach, the buildings now provide services for art exhibitions, bicycle rental and souvenir shops.
The Park was transformed from a school campus to a living cultural park for residents and tourists. This lively
and diverse arts space is continually shaped with the concepts of promoting "local arts" and "slow living in
Cishan" along with music festival, art exhibitions, bicycle activities, a flea market and other recreations.
Over the years, the Park has been subsidized by the local cultural museum project of the Ministry of Culture.
The Bureau of Cultural Affairs has completed the building repairs and constructed the Story House. Together
with other Cishan cultural attractions, they promote local culture tourism.

Procrastinating Alice holed herself up in her father's study with her head in the clouds in lieu of doing
her homework. Suddenly, she ran into Mr. Rabbit who was in a hurry to attend his appointment with the
fiery tempered Queen of Hearts. Mr. Rabbit's white gloves were the keys to this life or death rendezvous,
because as long as the hard-to-please Queen of Hearts is frustrated, she would yell "Off with his head!". Yet
Mr. Rabbit had dropped his life-saving white gloves in his hurry...

On the midnight of May 20th, 1949, the martial law was declared in Taiwan, from which the
White Terror ensued and spanned over 40 years. During that period, everything was strictly
monitored by the government. Any dissidents would be subjected to surveillance, imprisonment, endless tortures or even
execution by the firing squad. The number of victims amounted to nearly 140,000. The purpose of “The White Inferno”
exhibition is to review the historical scars by examining the sufferings of the victims in Kaohsiung and shed some light on
the wounds and pains the Taiwanese had to suffer during the White Terror.
