「我們的前面是什麼？」乃是被尊為臺灣極簡藝術宗師的林壽宇，於1985年臺灣第一次大型雕塑雙年展中獲獎的作品。暌違近30年後的今天，首屆FORMOSA雕塑雙年展轉借此作的題目為名，邀請超過30位中壯年的臺灣當代藝術家，重啟雕塑創作交流、思潮激盪、觀念辯證之平台，同時也藉此探問臺灣當代雕塑的現況與趨勢，及其對現實世界的關切與看法。

隨著臺灣當代藝術的發展，雕塑突破了傳統形式藩籬而擴展疆域，新世紀的雕塑不再是個疆界封閉的藝術類型範疇。然而，面貌多元的各種形式實驗持續進行，但「雕塑疆域的擴展」卻不再是個革命性翻轉，而是一個已鑲嵌入當代藝術脈絡的概念。處於「後擴展」時期的當今雕塑，其關注的核心已非表現媒材之形式疆界突破與否的問題，而是尋求傳達與回應變動複雜之新時代經驗的可能。

本展以三大關鍵母題為探查脈絡：「自然演繹‧環境變奏」，「當代造像‧異音複調」，「日常觀想‧生活『物』語」。藉由其中的多重寓意，不同的表現與詮釋，捕捉時代的新感性或新內容，突顯新世紀臺灣雕塑實踐的當代特質。

“What’s Ahead?” was the piece that the minimalist master of Taiwan, Richard Lin’s grand prize winner of the first “Contemporary Sculpture Exhibition in the Republic of China” in 1985. It has been thirty years since then, today the first FORMOSA Sculpture Biennial borrowed the title of the winning piece, and invited over thirty seasoned and experienced Taiwan contemporary sculptors to restart the platform of sharing creativity, thinking and ideas. At the same time, it is also a great opportunity to check the trends and focuses of contemporary sculptures of Taiwan, and the thoughts and views of the real world.

As the development of Taiwan contemporary art, sculpture itself has broken the conventional format and expanded its territory. The contemporary sculpture entering the new century is no longer an art category that is bound for its closed territory. However, many diverse experiments of different forms are ongoing today, but “the expansion of the sculpture territory” is no longer a revolutionary change, but a concept that is deeply rooted in the contemporary art contexts. The main focus of today’s sculpture that dealing in the time of “post-expansion” era is not the breakthrough of the formal boundary of the medium, but to search the possibilities for communicating and responding the complex experiences of the new era.

This exhibition focuses on three main issues as aspects of exploration: “Natural Interpretation, Environmental Variation”, “Contemporary Shapes, Different Notes and Complex Tunes”, and “Daily Viewing, Ordinary Object Stories”. Through the plural implied meanings, different expressions and representations, capturing new sensations and new meanings of the era and showing the contemporary characters of new century Taiwanese sculpture realizations.
