由香港攝影記者協會舉辦之《前線.焦點2022》年度新聞攝影比賽,已於二零二三年五月二十七日(星期六)順利舉行評審。今屆比賽共收到由74名參賽者提交,合共905張照片及67輯圖片故事,參賽人數及作品較去年略減。
本屆評審團針對年度圖片殊榮誰屬一度爭論不下,主要圍繞各候選圖片的公共性、前瞻性及美感進行討論。最終結果由《南華早報》的曾國宗所拍攝,疫情下新一屆立法會議員宣誓後所拍的團體照獲得。這張相片對該新聞事件的表達實在,兼顧歷史記錄;新任議員面目藏於口罩下,視線動作一致、形態相似,對香港未來提供到更廣闊的想像空間。

《蔣介石像,站在轉型正義的台灣》 一道幽靈站立在轉型正義的交界。解嚴35年後,蔣介石的銅像依舊遍佈台灣,於學校、廟宇、公園、廣場、軍營、大街小巷,昔日威權統治的遺跡,以不同姿態融入城市日常景觀。 政治銅像的豎立,除了紀念,象徵執政者權力與意志的延伸。蔣介石和蔣經國父子掌權多年,生前死後,台灣各地豎立大量個人銅像。據促進轉型正義委員會統計,2021年,扣除慈湖雕塑紀念公園的兩蔣塑像,單在公共空間的兩蔣塑像及遺像共計966個,當中蔣介石塑像共830個。蔣像的神貌、衣著、姿態、銅像之高度都有一定繩準,例如,行政院在1975年5月頒布《永久紀念總統蔣公辦法》:“銅像之神貌應充分顯示 蔣公慈祥、雍容之神貌,並蘊含大仁、大智、大勇、堅毅、樂觀之革命精神,與至誠、博愛、愉快、生動之神情。” 台灣由威權時期過渡到民主社會,剛踏上轉型正義的道路。轉型正義就是對過去獨裁統治行使的不公義行為作彌補,還原真相,撫平歷史傷痕,幫助受難者討回公道,重建社會信任。將於五月底解散的促轉會,2018年起推動台灣的轉型正義,包括清除公共空間的威權象徵。隨著兩蔣逝世,台灣解嚴,大眾對銅像的放置存疑,部分被移送,集中在慈湖紀念雕塑公園,蔣介石的陵寢旁。過去,民間曾多次發生破壞蔣像行動,譬如中正紀念堂的蔣像遭獨派人士潑紅漆,國立政治大學蔣像遭學生斷馬腳等。 任期將滿,促轉會清除威權象徵的進度不如理想,各機關不配合處置威權象徵的理由,多半認為不具威權意義,而選擇維持現狀。但縱觀各地轉型正義的經驗,路漫漫其修遠,它的一小步,使在不同國度裡受政治壓逼的人,多一分“歷史將判我無罪”的希望。
