Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 美術學系碩士班美術史組 === 103 === The thesis aims to study the development of the female nude paintings in the Academy and the controversy over these works during the Japanese colonial period. There are three steps of the research process. To begin with, I trace the historical contexts of these works. Then, I explain that how Taiwanese Student in Japan learned the female nude paintings. Finally, I discuss the social issues arising from female nude paintings in pubic. In the latter half of the 19th centuries, Japanese painters Kuroda Seiki and others had learned the female nude paintings and the "composition" level of paintings from French painter Raphael Collin. Then, they came back to the Tokyo Art School and private studios in Japan and instructed students here in nude paintings and the "composition" level of paintings. Taiwanese Students here frequently practiced drawing human body, which is beneficial to create the female nude paintings, and lots of them created female nude paintings as their graduate works but not the "composition" level of paintings. Only Chen Cheng-po had accomplished the "composition" level of paintings. During the Japanese colonial period, female nude paintings in pubic resulted in the ruler’s ban and art critics’ debate, but these works were successfully displayed in the Taiwan Fine Arts Exhibition. However, one of Li Shih-chiao’s female nude painting had been banned in the 2th of Tai-yang Fine Arts Exhibition, which shows that the ruler considered female nude paintings in pubic with politics. Finally, female nude paintings in pubic were lessened its nudity to reduce the conflict with Taiwan’s traditional values.
