碩士 === 國立臺北教育大學 === 藝術學系碩士班 === 96 === This research attempts to develop the studies of the feminine artist work in the field of vision, providing a new interpretation from another angle. The thesis is going to probe into the memory fetishism and femininity in the works of Maggie Hsun-Wei Hsu. Maggie Hsun-Wei Hsu, a Taiwan contemporary female artist, uses the aluminum foil to wrap or reconstruct the ready-made construction to express personal feelings of life. The installation form and the hand-made construction become the great characteristics. In order to realize the relationship between the reconstruction meaning of aluminum foil wrapping and the ready-made construction, Maggie Hsun-Wei Hsu’s eight solo exhibitions from 1996 to 2003 are chosen as the research sources to analyze from three ways. First of all, by the development of the Object Art, make a historical contrast with the installation form and the execution of the hand-made construction in Maggie Hsun-Wei Hsu’s artistries for the purpose to find out the effect of history and the specialty of her artistries. Secondly, by the fetishistic theory of Sigmund Freud and the feminist revision of fetishism, expound and prove the close connection with fetishism and memory. There seems to be a contradictory complex of the subject in both denied and the acknowledgment in the fission condition, which passes to pace back and forth in the past. Finally, by the feminine epistemology, presents the obvious femininity in Maggie Hsun-Wei Hsu’s artistries, including the autobiographical creation, the tactile package behavior, as well as the female experiences.
