關於羅世長
旅居加拿大的台灣畫家羅世長擁有博物館學碩士學歷,曾在加拿大皇家安大略博物館工作了十年。因為對於藝術的熱愛,毅然辭去工作,專心藝術創作。由於考古學背景與博物館工作的經驗,接觸的都是經過歷史淘洗與沉澱後之人類文明的精華,使他對藝術有更深層的認識,因此在藝術潮流下,仍能堅定自己的創作理念,作品頗受海內外單位喜愛而收藏。
羅世長體驗到藝術唯有在去蕪存菁之後,真情才得以流露,因此化繁為簡,將畫面還原到最單純的色彩與簡約的景象構圖,回歸到一種純凈而簡約的美感,淡泊而高雅,顯現出他內在的修養與人文精神。藝術家有如修行者,我們從羅世長的作品中倣若聽見他對自然永恒的宣言,他的作品有如為世俗開啟一扇窗,加拿大清新的空氣迎面撲鼻而來,純凈優美的自然景色躍入眼簾,洗滌了疲乏,為我們心靈注入了一道活泉。

About Shyh-Charng Lo
Shyh-Charng Lo, who holds an MA in museum studies, once spent ten years working at the Royal Ontario Museum in Canada. But his deep love for art provided him with the resolve to leave his job and engage in the full-time pursuit of a creative career. His archeological background and experience with museum work had brought Lo into contact with the finest artifacts of human civilization, shaped and sifted by the tides of historical time, which deepened his awareness of the meaning of art. It is this broad view that has allowed Lo to hold steadfastly to his own creative approach amid the shifting currents of artistic trends.
Lo realized that only by eliminating the dross and retaining the essentials could article come to reveal true feeling. He thus strives to derive simplicity from complexity, reducing his compositions to the purest colors and the most simplified scenic elements, and by so doing, he captures a sense of the beauty of purity and simplicity. Lo's work exudes a tranquil yet elegant air, reflecting the inner personal development of the artist himself and his spirit of humanism.An artist is like a seeker after truth, and in Lo's works we hear the echo of his eternal pledge to nature. In them, he opens a window away from the everyday world, and we are greeted by a bracing gust of fresh Canadian air. Fatigue is washed away as our eyes take in the pure beauty of his natural scenes, and our spirit is refreshed as if by the gushing of a live, flowing spring.
