壁畫課程與社區美化結合

Combination of a Mural Course and Community Beautification

社區美化一直是近年來政府單位的議題，如何美化並創造有個性與獨特的社區是當地政府一直以來在規劃的事情，多數的社區營造一開始的策略都是以硬體設備為第一優先，像是老人服務處、社區服務中心、社區綠化或是小型公園等類似於能見度比較高的硬體設備等等………而學校能配合的比較多是以課程或是社區美化為前提的教育性營造，而這篇文章要探討的部分是由兩個不同國家的社區營造做相互的比較，兩個社區營造都是由壁畫連結在地創生當作是這次社區營造的主題，也都是以課程的內容去引導學生美化一片牆面進而去思考自己居住的環境與社區的問題，兩個個案都是以實際參與創作和課程內容去分析和探討，其中一面是德國城市Bad Münstereifel的一所學校內牆和附近巷子裡的展示櫃與木箱作為美化，藉由德國社區營造的實際經驗與台灣的壁畫創生做分析與整理，台灣的社區營造則與杉木SUNWOOD Art＆Design企業合作，用壁畫彩繪臺北的社區巷弄，並與學生和幾位藝術家共同創作，以壁畫創作live painting美化居民與上班族經常通行的步道環境，兩者都是用課程的方式去設計，希望從中找到壁畫課程與社區營造結合的跨領域交流。

Community beautification has been a big issue in community building in recent years. How to beautify and create a unique community is something that local governments and schools have been planning. Local governments in most communities prioritize infrastructure projects such as elderly service offices, community service centers, community greening or small parks and other similar infrastructure with high visibility . Moreover, schools can cooperate to offer more with courses or community beautification assistance under the premise of educational construction. This study explores and compares community construction projects in two different areas. The two community construction projects are based on mural creation and wall beautification. These projects both used course content to guide students to beautify a wall and then think about the problems of community building. Both walls are analyzed and discussed with research methods of actual participation. The first project was set at a school in the German city of Bad Münstereifel. The landscaping of several nearby walls and transformer boxes there was based on the practical experience created by the German community. The second projects involves the creation of murals in Taiwan. Taiwan's community building in this projects was based on collaboration with Cunningham Sunwood Art & Design. Mural paintings in Taipei community lanes were co-created by students and several artists. Live paintings with murals were used to beautify the walkway environment. The authors designed the curriculum in hopes of finding a cross-domain communication approach that combines mural courses with community building.
