北京國家大劇院近日展出以孫中山為主題的百米畫卷,新增「臺海晨光」等篇章,並納入紀念孫中山誕辰一百六十週年與「臺灣光復」的系列活動。中共今年擴大在北京舉辦「孫中山誕辰160周年」紀念活動。
北京國家大劇院近日展出以孫中山先生為主題的百米畫卷,作品新增「臺海晨光」等篇章,並被納入紀念孫中山誕辰一百六十週年與「臺灣光復」的系列活動;一場藝術展覽,原可讓觀眾回望歷史,但當臺海意象與政治紀念並列,也值得追問:畫筆描繪的究竟是過去,還是今日想讓人接受的兩岸關係?
孫中山先生推動革命、倡議共和,其思想不僅涉及民族,也包含人民權利與民生福祉。(資料照)孫中山先生推動革命、倡議共和,其思想不僅涉及民族,也包含人民權利與民生福祉;紀念他的貢獻,可以從推翻帝制、建立共和、追求政治改革等不同角度理解,並不是哪一個政黨可以獨占的歷史記憶。藝術家有詮釋歷史的自由,觀眾也有提出不同解讀的權利,問題不在於能不能畫孫中山,而在於是否有人把自己的政治答案,說成他唯一留下的答案。
《北京日報》特別提及新作中的臺海篇章,以及展覽所屬的紀念活動;若再對照同一時期「中共」官方紀念孫中山的相關談話,便能觀察歷史人物、兩岸淵源與當代統一主張被放進同一敘事的方式。兩岸確有交織的歷史與文化,這是可以討論的事實,但有共同歷史,不代表今日只有一種政治選擇;更不能因為紀念同一位人物,就把不同社會的制度、經驗與人民意願省略不談。
請繼續往下閱讀...
這種敘事若經由展覽、影像及媒體向海外傳播,還可能影響不熟悉臺灣處境的觀眾如何理解兩岸;一幅畫容易讓人記住連續的歷史故事,卻未必交代其中的政治斷裂與制度差異。文化作品可以傳遞情感,也可以承載政治主張,但情感上的親近,不能直接當作政治歸屬的證明,歷史上的聯繫,更不能替今日人民作出決定。至於展覽是否真正影響國際認知,仍需觀察傳播範圍與受眾反應,不能只憑主辦者的安排就認定效果。
臺灣民眾無須因為「中共」紀念孫中山,就否定兩岸共有的歷史,也不必把每場文化活動都視為統戰;真正值得留意的,是有人從文化記憶一路推向政治結論,讓「有歷史關係」變成「應接受特定安排」。面對這類說法,我們應查明來源、辨別史實與主張,尊重不同的歷史認同,也警覺「中共」可能藉此混淆政治界線、挑動社會對立;持續理性監督政府、重視國防政策與建軍備戰,才能在開放交流之際,兼顧自由選擇與家園安全。

China Youth Daily published a commentary article by Wang Jikun, an associate researcher at East China Normal University, analyzing how social networks transform offline comparisons of acquaintances into infinite upward comparisons pushed by algorithms, amplifying youth anxiety, and put forward self-anchoring suggestions of comparing efforts rather than starting points, growth rather than position, and admiration rather than inferiority complex.
