✨ 【2026 Hualien International Stone Sculpture Festival|Stone Sculpture Symposium
Jury Introduction (I)|Different Practices, Multiple Perspectives on Sculpture】
From 194 creative proposals submitted by artists from 51 countries, 18 works advanced to the Final Review, with nine artists ultimately selected for this year’s Stone Sculpture Symposium. At every stage of the selection process, the jury considered not only the visual form of each work, but also its creative concept, form, material, spatial relationship, and feasibility of ex*****on.
For this year’s Stone Sculpture Symposium – International Open Call, five jury members with diverse professional backgrounds and extensive jury experience were invited to take part in the selection process. In this first post, we introduce three of them—Hsu Li-Hsien, Chang Tzu-Lung, and Tsai Wen-Ching.
🔹 Hsu Li-Hsien|Sculptor
A graduate of the Sculpture Division, Department of Fine Arts at the National Taiwan Academy of Arts, Hsu received formal training in sculpture early in his career. Since moving to Hualien in the 1970s, he has devoted decades to stone sculpture, the study of stone materials and techniques, while also mentoring generations of younger artists. He is widely recognized as a senior figure in Hualien’s stone sculpture community and an important contributor to its development and artistic legacy.
He has served as Chairman of the Sculpture Association of the Republic of China, a juror for the National Art Exhibition, and an international expert in stonemasonry for the WorldSkills Competition. His decades of experience in both artistic practice and jury work have given him a profound understanding of stone, carving techniques, and the practical realization of sculptural works.
🔹 Chang Tzu-Lung|Sculptor
A longtime practitioner and educator in sculpture, Chang is recognized as one of the important contributors to the development of modern sculpture in Taiwan. He graduated from the National Taiwan Academy of Arts and later pursued advanced studies in Japan, receiving his Master’s degree in Sculpture from Tama Art University in 1980. After returning to Taiwan, he devoted many years to sculpture and art education, teaching at Taipei National University of the Arts.
His artistic practice has long explored the relationships between material, form, space, and environment, extending sculptural thinking into the public realm. His decades of experience in modern sculpture and art education bring to this year’s selection process a profound perspective on form, material, and spatial relationships.
🔹 Tsai Wen-Ching|Sculptor
Tsai graduated from the Department of Sculpture at the National Taiwan Academy of Arts and received an MFA from Arkansas State University in the United States. He currently serves as a public art expert for Taiwan’s Ministry of Culture and as an advisor and jury member for the Hualien County Cultural Affairs Bureau. He also teaches sculpture, public art, and spatial aesthetics at National D**g Hwa University.
With extensive experience in stone sculpture and public art, Tsai has participated in numerous international sculpture programs. Since the 1995 Hualien International Outdoor Stone Sculpture Competition, he has also taken part in Hualien’s international stone sculpture activities on numerous occasions. His experience—from sculpture symposiums to public art practice—provides a strong practical perspective on how a work develops from a model and proposal into a full-scale sculpture.
Different Artistic Journeys, Different Perspectives
From the development and transmission of Hualien’s stone sculpture tradition, to explorations of form and space in modern sculpture, and international practices in sculpture and public art, these diverse professional backgrounds and perspectives together contribute to the jury’s approach to this year’s International Open Call.
📌 Next|Jury Introduction (II)
In our next post, we will introduce the other two jury members—Liu Chun-Lan and Cynthia Sah—and explore another dimension of this year’s jury through perspectives from art research, curatorial practice, museum experience, and cross-cultural international sculpture practice.
