粉彩pastel色料採取大自然原色，其色澤真純，作畫時不需添加溶劑，且無褪色、龜裂之虞。粉彩畫具朦朧之美，於歐美相當盛行，值得國人深究。
繼2007年後，本館再次舉辦邀請展，邀請著名藝術組織包括：北美粉彩畫家協會會長張哲雄教授(Jason Chang)、美國粉彩畫協會會長蕾史密斯女士(Rae Smith)、法國粉彩畫協會前任會長秀維卡布拉女士(Sylvie Cabal)、夏威夷粉彩畫協會前任會長峰怜女士(Fong Ling)。
聚焦賞析：本次參展作品來自歐美各地及臺灣畫家所提供，風格各異，題材廣泛，透過此藝術交流，期有助臺灣粉彩藝術的發展。
　
Pastel is made from natural pigment. Its color is very authentic and pure. No solvent is added to it, and it does not fade or crack. One of the unique characteristics of pastel is the hazy effect. Pastel is popular in Europe and the U.S., and certainly is worthy of study by the people in Taiwan.
This exhibition is a continued effort from the 2007 show. Well-established art organizations, which are co-sponsors of this exhibition, include the following organizations and their officials: Professor Jason Chang, President, North America Pastel Association; Ms. Rae Smith, President, American Pastel Association; Ms. Sylvie Cabal, ex-President, France Pastel Association; and Ms. Fong Ling, ex-President, Hawaii Pastel Association.
Focus：The pastel works in this exhibition are provided by artists from different parts of the world as well as Taiwan. They have different styles and cover a wide range of subject matters. We anticipate that this artistic exchange will help the development of pastel art in Taiwan.
