摘要

從歷史中各種新聞媒體中的新聞攝影出發，到現今由許多新聞攝影獎項、比賽結果集結而成的展覽。本研究以新聞攝影展覽為探討的對象，點出新聞媒體的脈絡下所呈現的新聞攝影與社會的關係，以及影像如何被機制所選用的問題。本研究以展覽機制的角度，關注新聞攝影何以成為展示之目的與意義，並以具國際知名度與專業的World Press Photo展覽為案例，試圖探討展覽的意義與目的、新聞攝影之分類、展覽觀點以及於在地展覽時的過程與方法。

研究發現：World Press Photo基金會所發起的新聞攝影比賽進而衍生的展覽活動與詮釋，增進了世界性的新聞攝影交流與推廣，擁有傳播意義；展覽的觀點是得獎者與評審雙方觀點的集合。本研究在肯定他們的理念與專業的同時，也對新聞攝影成為「改變世界的力量」的理想提出疑問，藉此反省新聞攝影在比賽機制與商業體制中的侷限。我們必須主動去釐清攝影的多樣性，才能生產各種觀點的攝影展覽，與大眾溝通。

Initially, the content of the exhibition came from news photos used in all kinds of news media in history; until today, it mostly includes results of contests and winners of photojournalism. This case study uses exhibition of photojournalism as the main target, discussing about the relationship between photojournalism and the society, and also how the images are displayed by the exhibition mechanism. This case study focuses on the aspect of exhibition mechanism, rationalizing how photojournalism becomes the purpose and significance of the exhibition. Take the exhibition of highly professional and famous World Press Photo as an example, this case study attempts to find out the significance, categories of photojournalism, themes displayed, and process and method of the exhibition.

It is found in the case study that the contests and exhibition launched by the World Press Photo increases the interaction between photojournalism in the world and helps to promote it. And also, the exhibition can be seen as an integration of the view points from the photographer and the judges. Besides consenting with the profession and belief of the exhibition, this case study also questions the ideal of “changing the world through photojournalism”, and thus propels us to rethink about the limitation of photojournalism in contests and financial profits. It is very important that the exhibition shows diversity of photography, displaying works from all kinds of aspect, in order to communicate with people in the world.
