當代藝術在後現代主義的影響之下，其展演現象充斥在我們的日常生活中，然礙 於後現代思想與學術之間身複雜，使藝術家、作品與關者之間出現了極大的裂痕，在無法建 立良好且和善的互動情況下，成為推動當代藝術欣賞難以跨越的鴻溝。 本文試圖分析當代藝術、藝術家與觀眾三者之間的尷尬和焦慮情節，並從多元論述中探索後 現代主義的精髓，以建立其間的溝通橋樑。蘇格拉底曾說，我無法傳遞給你（妳）知識，但 我將如產婆一般將妳（你）本有的認知接生出來。筆者亦將本著蘇格拉底的「產婆原理」， 以多元化的敘述來鬆綁傳統的認知態度，突破後現代認知的嚴肅外貌，使當代藝術的欣賞成 為生活層面中平易近人的經驗歷程；讓關者能夠建立參與當代藝術欣賞的自信，更進而展翼 遨遊於毫無轄限的藝術思考空間。 本文的方向為：一、以小王子的故事做為楔子，揭示後現代主義的認知。二、導論當代藝術 與觀眾之間的關係。三、從古今與東西方的思想論述中，建立一連串相關性的認知歷程，以 成為後現代主義、當代藝術、藝術家、以及觀眾之間的互動能量。四、結論。 藉此探討，作者期望能夠為推廣當代藝術欣賞的文化工程盡一份心力（註一）。

　　　　　Art in the contemporary era has been deeply influenced by Post-Modern theories. However, the complexity of such theoretical concerns creates a tremendous gap between the artist, the works, as well as the beholders. Without a sympathetic communication, the development of contemporary art appreciation becomes an impossible mission. In this research, I will analyze the distressed and anxious situation among the contemporary artists, their works, and the beholders. I will also define the essence of Post-Modernism through multiple interpretations. Socrates had ever said: "I am like a midlife; I try to deliver shat you've already known." I will therefore follow such "midlife way" to unfasten the traditional way of learning, to break through the simulacrum of Post-Modernism, and to make the appreciation of contemporary art an amiable journey. By doing so, I am able to propose the beholder a way to revive their confidence in the appreciation of contemporary art. This paper will be divided into four chapters: In the first chapter, the allegory of The Little Prince will be presented as an opening toward the Post-Modern understanding. In the second chapter, the relationship among the contemporary artists, works, and the beholders will be analyzed. In the third chapter, Eastern and Western theories, as well as ancient and modern concerns will be appropriated to create a continuous interpretation of Post-Modern interests. In the fourth chapter, a conclusion will be drawn from the above research. Through this study, I hope the development of the contemporary art appreciation will make our life a more creative one.
