粉樂擁『九』,暢快藝夏

粉樂町在盛夏的暑氣中跨步邁入第九次展出,歷程中如同體驗了九種果實的滋味,但如今回頭細想卻都甘甜,儘管在品嘗前需要剝去艱澀的外皮、爬上樹幹掘開深土,但其中最動人的,也就是得來不易而顯得彌足珍貴。慶幸的是,所付出的累積成為一張張動人的表情,粉樂精神就是溫暖與快樂,讓生活有美有盼望,在無私的藝術創作當中分享感動!

取用聖經加拉太書5:22-23聖靈所產出的九種美德稱之為聖靈果子,呼應這九年的閱歷,回溯過往點滴,每年在無牆美術館所埋下的種籽,如今對照慢慢萌芽結出香氣的果實才有所體悟!原來在上帝的創造裡,就是要使用我們完成這樣的期許,生命受屬於神而非自我!我們所堅持與努力的原來在大能當中自有安排!

粉樂町,每年在巷弄街角撐起桌面迎接來自世界各地的創作者,激撞交流互換目光,用藝術辦桌用人情味料理,過程中分享著各種創意滋味,參雜著暑氣和盛夏的雨水,佐配著走逛的驚嘆和笑聲,其中有賴民間與企業的支持與信任!讓舊雨新知相約相聚,共同為集體的記憶增色!

今年,相信您也不會缺席,來自世界各地的藝術創作者,將會用創作演譯各種空間形式,三十多件藝術作品將以無牆模式歡迎您,六十位熱情志工為您服務引路,粉樂町張開雙臂迎接,期待在相擁問候的當下,您也蘊染上喜樂的粉紅氣色!

Embracing the Ninth Very Fun Park

As we observe the opening of this year’s Very Fun Park, we can’t help but to look back at the fruits of our labor. The obstacles and challenges we faced throughout the past eight exhibitions were like that of having to climb a tree or dig deep into the soil, and peel away the hard outer rind of a fruit. Yet these difficulties have made the fruit sweeter and all the more precious. We are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to foster a warm and embracing attitude, capturing the spirit of the Very Fun Park by giving life new colors as we share art with you in this museum without walls.

Galatians 5:22-23 speaks of the fruit of the Spirit and it cites nine virtues, which very aptly represent every bit of these past nine years. The seeds we planted each year have not only budded, they have also born the sweetest of fruits. This led me to understand that we accomplish things for God rather than for ourselves, and thus all of our efforts are a part of His almighty plan.

Every year, Very Fun Park artists and creative minds come together to cook up a storm in the streets and corners of Taipei. The fusion of different artistic flavors, mingled with the summer heat and rain, creates an opportunity for cultural growth. With both private and corporate support, we have brought excitement and laughter to daily life in Taipei. Let the old and the new meet as we create new memories!

This year, we believe that you will not miss the works by artists from all over the world. With enthusiastic service from our volunteers, we hope that your journey through the nooks and crannies of Taipei will be one filled with wonder. Let the joyous pink of the Very Fun Park make your days warmer, and let us all embrace this celebration of art, culture, and life.
