摘要

傳統農業社會勞動者是社會金字塔結構的最基層，他們的人數最多、影響的範圍最廣，也可以說他們是社會金字塔最堅固，最重要的份子。台灣以勤儉及勞動聞名，近年受到國際大環境的影響，勞動的結構產生大變化。因此，筆者透過分析研究「寫實主義」畫派的社會意義及其以勞動者為題材的畫作中所蘊含的人道精神及社會關懷，以理解藝術家對再現現實世界的精神意涵，及美學概念，作為本創作的基礎。
本創作研究主要是探討台灣基層的勞動者，尤以建築工人為主軸。在都會地區，因建築物林立，且進行多項公共工程，建築勞工比農耕勞工更常見，由於工作的要求，建築勞工身型也較粗壯。雖然工作艱辛，收入不豐，建築勞工很有尊嚴的以身體勞動的方式，回饋社會大眾。
本創作研究在於表現自然客觀存在的形體與色彩，先從藝術社會學的層面深入的探討社會與藝術的互動，及藝術活動對社會生活的反射與再現、聯想與移情，進而了解勞動與自然藝術、勞動與人文藝術、勞動與嚮往藝術的混合意義，並運用審美組合的能力，加上油畫的語言，藉由具體物象寫實的平面繪畫創作，把建築勞工與環境─人與自然─緊密的結合，再現勞動者外在堅強的毅力及內心深層的期望，呈現出打動人心的藝術表現，希望能激起社會大眾對勞動者的重視及關照，為勞動者贏得生命及生活的尊嚴。

In a traditional, agricultural society, laborers composed the base of the social pyramid, having the largest number and widest influence. It could be said they are the solid, crucial members of the social pyramid. Famous for its diligence and hardworking, Taiwan has transformed its laboring structure under the great impact of international changes. Hence, the study tries to analyze the contribution to the contemporary society arising from “realism” and the humanism as well as social concerns embodied in the paintings on laborers in order to comprehend the spiritual and aesthetic concept the artists representing the real world through their masterpieces. The result of this research also gives my creative works theoretical scaffolding.
This study focuses on Taiwan laborers of the lowest social ladder, in majority, constructional laborers. In metropolitan area, with a lot of high risers and many constructional works going on, laborers are more often seen than farmers. Due to work demand, their figure is more masculine than those in other careers. Although their job is tough and their income modest, the laborers contribute through their physical strength to our society with dignity.
The study of these paintings lies in presenting the shapes and colors existed in nature. First from the view of art sociology, this presentation deeply explores how the art and society interact with each other, and how artistic works can reflect, represent, associate and empathize with each other. Then, it explains the compound meaning of labor with natural art, labor with humanistic art, labor with spiritual projection. With the aesthetic combining ability, the elements of oil painting, the realistic graphic approach, the works intimately integrate laborers and the environment, man and nature, and represent persevering features silhouetting the hopes growing from their innermost being to demonstrate soul-stirring art.
