王双全研究-日本でのアマチュア写真家とい う位置付けの再考を中心に- Study of Photographer Wang Shuang-chuan - Focusing on rethinking the position as an amateur photographer in Japan-
摘要：
This thesis discusses his life of Taiwanese photographer Wang Shuang-chuan (1920-1978), focusing on research in Taiwan. Wang Shuang-chuan was born in Tainan City, Taiwan during the Japanese colonial rule. He was educated as a Japanese by the Japanese language education "Kokugo" education given to Taiwanese at that time. He then moved to the mainland of Japan, serving in the Japanese army as a Taiwanese special volunteer. After World War II, from the 1960s to the 1970s, he applied for many photo magazines such as "Photo Art" (Kenkosha) and "Nippon Camera" (Nippon Camera), and was known for his activities such as publishing and receiving awards. In recent years, a scene from Yoshiharu Tsuge's manga work "Nejishiki" (Tsuge, 1968) 1), published in 1968, may have been drawn with reference to the work "Eyes" by Wang Shuang-chuan. It has become a hot topic in the magazine "Spectator" ("Spectator", 2018) 2) and has been attracting attention from various fields. In 1959, Shuang-chuan established the Tainan City Photographic Association, the predecessor of the current Tainan Photographic Society, with his twin brother Wang Shuang-fu (1920-1974). In 1966, his achievements as a photographer were acknowledged, and he was recognized as a member of Tainan Biten (Tainan Art Research Association), which hosts the largest art exhibition in Tainan City, "Nanbiten Exhibition". His photographic works were exhibited at "Nanbiten Exhibition" every year from 1996 to 1975. Shuang-chuan was elected as one of the twelve directors at the 10th Tainan City Photography Society's "Members' Society" in 1977. He also received the honorary title of PhD in Tainan Photography Society (Xu, 2008) 3). In this way, Shuang-chuan is a person who has greatly contributed to the development of the art world, not only in Japan, but also in Tainan City. However, to date, little systematic research on Wang Shuang-chuan has been done, even in Taiwan, the birthplace of Wang Shuang-chuan. With the sudden death of Wang Shuang-chuan at the young age of 58 and the fact that many materials were written in Japanese, even the existence of materials such as original prints kept by his relatives is almost unknown. Not just unknown, nothing had been archived. This paper was written based on a large number of materials that have not been the subject of research and interviews with relatives of Wang Shuang-chuan, and is the first full-scale Wang Shuang-chuan research. The purpose of this treatise is to investigate and study the background of Wang Shuang-chuan, his activities as a photographer, his beliefs and personality as a photographer, and his photographic work "Eyes" based on interviews and materials with relatives of Wang Shuang-chuan. In addition, I will also describe the significance of studying Wang Shuang-chuan, not only in the photography world of Japan and Taiwan, but also in the exchange between Japan and Taiwan.
