2021荷蘭世界新聞攝影展
2021 World Press Photo
展期｜2021.12.1-2022.1.6 / 週二至週日
展場｜Studio94/ 仰德大道二段94號
開放時間｜10am-6pm/ 不定期深夜開館
因為疫情帶來的種種考量，我們將首度擁有一個長達五週的展期，因此能疏散人流，也能有更好的觀展品質。謝謝荷蘭世界新聞攝影基金會這一年多來盡了最大的努力，使我們在面對不確定的兩難中，最後還是能展出2021世界新聞攝影展。
開展後，我們除了接受學校團體的預約導覽之外，更希望未曾來到這個展覽的朋友們能夠來看看世界的多樣面向。雖說今年展場中沒有一張照片關乎台灣，但我們也可以說其實每一張照片都關乎台灣。新冠疫情的、群族對立的、環境生態的、民生經濟的、政治衝突的、醫療應用的、移民問題的，甚或難民處境的，所有故事若我們細想深思，都能對應到我們當今面對的問題日後可能出現的延伸與發展。
歡迎大家上山來看展，展覽將首次跨年展出。也許跨年時，我們將安排一個特別的深夜導覽。希望那時，誰都平安，無處煙硝。

《第一個擁抱》
8月5日，在巴西聖保羅的「美好生活安養院」，護士Adriana Silva da Costa Souza擁抱著85歲的Rosa Luzia Lunardi。
這是Rosa五個月來第一次被擁抱。由於COVID-19疫情，3月開始全國各地安養院禁止探訪，上百萬名巴西人因此無法探望年長親人。看護也被下令盡量與被照護者減少肢體接觸。而美好生活安養院的一項簡單發明——「擁抱簾」讓人們能再度擁抱彼此。巴西總統波索納洛不理會疫情的嚴重程度及其帶來的威脅。2020年巴西成為世界疫情最慘重的國家之一，約770萬人染疫，19.5萬人死亡。

The First Embrace
05 August, 2020
Rosa Luzia Lunardi (85) is embraced by nurse Adriana Silva da Costa Souza, at Viva Bem care home, São Paulo, Brazil.
This was the first hug Rosa had received in five months. In March, care homes across the country had closed their doors to all visitors as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, preventing millions of Brazilians from visiting their elderly relatives. Carers were ordered to keep physical contact with the vulnerable to an absolute minimum. At Viva Bem, a simple invention, ‘The Hug Curtain', allowed people to hug each other once again. The new coronavirus had first appeared in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019, and by January 2020 had begun to spread around the world. On 11 March, the World Health Organisation declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. The disease—transmitted mainly via close contact, respiratory droplets, and aerosols—could be fatal, and people over the age of 70 were one of the groups considered most vulnerable to the disease. Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro, dismissed claims about the severity of the pandemic and the danger posed by the virus, undermined quarantine measures adopted at state level, and encouraged Brazilians to continue working to keep the economy afloat. Brazil ended 2020 with one of the worst records globally in dealing with the virus, with some 7.7 million reported cases and 195,000 deaths.
