Big Announcement in the 4th International Art Exhibition from Nippon Foundation

The 4th International Art Exhibition from the Nippon Foundation has been announced on Friday November 12th. Big applause to Yi-Fang Wu, the artist in Taipei WanFang Center for People with disabilities, for getting the chance to exhibit her masterpiece “Queen’s Head” next year in Tokyo.

The warm girl with sweet smile and mild eyes, Yi-Fang Wu, always spread the joy to people around her. You can be affected if you are in contact with her. Even the serious disease is still haunting her, she never gives up on herself. The artwork “Queen’s Head” passes a conception of the power of the nature. Queen’s Head is an erosional landform due to the sea breeze. Yi Fang tries to paint the direction of the breeze through the arrangement of circles and colors changing in order to make people feel the whirlwind of nature as if you were standing at the scenic spot.

Taipei WanFang Center for People with disabilities from Eden Social Welfare Foundation submited 9 paintings to the Nippon Foundation DIVERSITY IN THE ARTS the 4th International Art Exhibition. Yet, there is only one work displayed in the exhibition. They won’t be beaten even though they have tried hard to pass the premiliary review but lose in the final review.

The Nippon Foundation holds the exhibition every year. It forms as an open-call exhibition, which aims to leverage the power of art to encourage interaction among people. Also, it offers the same opportunity to the persons with or without disabilities to engage in the art activities and share their excitement on art. It’s encouraged for the artists in WanFang Center for People with disabilities discovering potentials and breaking through themselves. It’s believed that they would grab and cherish every chance and never upset for one lost.
