4. About the Artist 關於藝術家
Komi Chen was born in Taipei, Taiwan into an artistic family. Her father, Kuo Hsueh-Hu, is one of the country's
premier visual artists and considered one of its national treasures. Her father trained her on the fundamentals
of classical Chinese painting and calligraphy. Komi's unique visual style blends Western realism with a
modern Chinese sensibility. As a woman who has spent time in both the East and West, it seems natural that
her works would reflect the visual styles of both traditions.
郭香美出生在台灣台北的一個藝術家庭。父親是全國首屈一指的視覺藝術家之一，培養了她中國古代書畫的基
礎。香美獨特的視覺風格融合了西方現實主義與現代中國的感性。將時間花費在東方和西方兩邊的女士，很自
然她的作品似乎反映了兩種傳統的視覺風格。
Komi then attended the College of Fine & Applied Arts at the nation's prestigious training ground for teachers,
the Taiwan National Normal University. There she mastered traditional Chinese fine arts techniques and got
her first exposure to Western styles. Soon after graduation, Komi began teaching fine arts at a local middle
school.
香美隨後進入了全國著名的教師學府，台灣師範大學美術與應用藝術學院。在那裡她掌握了中國傳統的美術技
巧，並首次接觸到西方風格。畢業後不久在當地一所中學執教美術。
She moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the late 1960s to pursue an advanced degree in Library Science,
but she never lost her passion for art. Komi's paintings during her early years in the United States tended
towards the traditional mountain-and-water landscapes and still-lifes of flowers and fruit. As she gained more
confidence in her own visual style, however, she added more colorful and dramatic works that reflect a
passion for native cultures and landscapes from around the world: from serene Japanese temples to bustling
ostrich farms in South Africa, from sparkling Canadian glaciers to colorful religious ceremonies at Buddhist
temples in Thailand.
她於 20 世紀 60 年代末搬到賓州的匹茲堡，攻讀圖書館學的高級學位，但她從未失去對藝術的熱情。香美早年
在美國的作品傾向於傳統的山水風景和鮮花水果之類的靜物。然而，當她對自己的視覺風格更加自信時，又添
加了更加豐富多彩的戲劇作品，反映出來自世界各地的本土文化和風景：從寧靜的日本廟宇到南非熙熙攘攘的
鴕鳥農場，從波光粼粼的加拿大冰川到泰國佛教寺廟豐富多彩的宗教儀式。
Come and enjoy the colorful world embodied in Kumi Chen's paintings.
現在就請來欣賞郭香美繪畫中體現的豐富多彩世界。
