台北市美國紐約大學校友會

「一分錢先生」台灣藝術家林世寶    二月我們熱熱鬧鬧的走過了第五大道紐約時尚秀，三月參與了2008年台灣房地產發展的未來性，四月，NYU校友們將進行一場別開生面的藝術體驗之旅。這一次、特別邀請到2005年在日本愛知縣舉辦的世界博覽會中，唯一受邀為博覽會設計裝置藝術《智慧之門》的NYU校友台灣藝術家林世寶，在此次天鵬藝術村協會中的最新個展期間，為校友們做一次的藝術導讀之旅。    台灣出生的林世寶旅居美國與日本20多年，23歲那年在完全不懂日文的情況下負笈日本名古屋大學學習現代水墨，隔年即獲得日本畫壇最高榮譽的日法美術獎首獎，成為當時日法美術獎史上最年輕且非日裔的首獎得主。1993年藝術事業如日中天時，毅然決定前往紐約重新出發，並以其優異的畫壇成績在托福分數未達標准的情況下破格錄取進入NYU藝術研究所。他的作品更得到美國企業家的青睞，受邀為今年三月開幕的紐約皇后區Crossing Queens百貨公司製作同名的戶外裝置作品，為鎮館之寶。    透過林世寶校友的藝術解讀，您的人生必然有另一番省思！ 導讀人：台灣藝術家林世寶先生時  間：2008/04/28  (Monday) 19：00—21:00費  用：每人 350 元（包含晚餐）地  點：台北市天鵬藝術村協會（台北市環河北路一段111號）電話-02-25585789

瘋狂、優雅、時尚、私密的NYU Annual Party「較春晚會」，2月22日晚間在台北盛大舉行，將近一百位校友與名人一起歡度了一個歡欣的夜晚，晚會安排的星光大道走秀，更成為媒體爭相報導的焦點，電視與各項媒體報導本次晚會高達25則，堪稱是NYU校友會成立十一年來最熱鬧的一場盛會。

當晚會場冠蓋雲集，在主持人Billy （洪濬成）熱力四射的引導下，兩個多小時的晚會高潮迭起，在介紹到場的資深學長與貴賓之後，十位穿著最新時尚春裝的校友進場走秀，立刻引起全場校友的驚呼，尤其是徐小波夫人曹平霞女士，雖然兒子已經三十幾歲，但是稍做打扮有如將時光到流三十年，名模架式絕對可以挑戰當今最夯的凱渥名模，此外，顧立雄會長夫人王美花女士，也小露香肩，她擔任智慧財產局長的身分引起媒體高度關注，成為新聞記者追捧的焦點。

當天晚會還有許多「友校」的好友們共襄盛舉，包括凱絡媒體董事長葉文立、工商時報總編輯George王嶠奇、大通旅行社董事長林柏洲、英誌電腦監察人Frank莊經邦、Giorgio Armani、嘉裕西服大中華區副總經理Stephanie溫筱鴻、ELLE總編輯Cindy 許心怡、上海中歐管理學院台灣校友會長Jove 胡世杰、以及來自USC、Columbia的朋友們。

這次晚會的義賣會也非常成功，義賣會獲得許多知名品牌的贊助，提供Diageo 提供名酒、Kiehl’s 提供高級化妝品、Samsonite提供旅行箱，與會的校友們也在Billy以及校友會總幹事Tina 催眠下，紛紛舉手認捐，充實此次晚會活動以及校友會的基金，十七件義賣商品全部高價得標，獲得校友捐助金額達到新台幣十萬元以上。

晚會的另一個焦點是歌唱 PK大賽，台北藝術推廣協會執行長Serina陳琪、元富證券副總經理Kevin吳英龍、以及蕭蒼澤律師，最後全體校友以掌聲投票選出Serina為冠軍，吳英龍與蕭蒼澤同列亞軍，三人都非常慷慨，將總計新台幣數千元的「微薄」獎金捐贈給校友會。

Over 100 NYU alumni and friends gathered on Feb. 22 for the long-awaited NYUTAS 2007 annual event — the Spring Fashion show. The event was broken down into three sections:
1) fashion show; 2) live singing PK contest; 3) charity auction.

The event which took form of semi-formal dinner commenced at 6pm and people found themselves reluctant to leave even til 10:30pm. Total funds raised totaled over NT$100,000 from numerous generous alumni.

Active NYU alumni gathered to join the locally renowned Ivy Ball – one of the major parties in the Taipei high-society social scene. The Ivy Ball is traditionally held at end of each year and this year the event was sponsored by the Harvard Alumni Club. With members of eight Ivy League schools and two guest schools attending every year, NYUTAS was invited, along with the University of Chicago

With many celebrities attending the ball, NYU’s heavyweight alumni also added more attention to an already-high profile event. Prominent NYU alumni in attendance included Dr. Paul Hsu (LLM’69, LAW) and his wife, James Jin (STERN), Richard Tsai (MBA’81, STERN), CJ Cheng (STERN), NYUTAS founding president Paul Chu (BS’77, School of Engineering and Science) among other distinguished NYU alumni. NYUTAS President Wellington Koo (LLM’88, LAW) who was formerly the chairman of the Taipei Bar Association, led the a total of 40 NYU alumni attending the ball.

By participating in the Ivy Ball, NYUTAS was able to establish new relations with several Ivy League Alumni clubs while strengthening existing friendships with others. Held at the Grand Hyatt, the ball was quite successful. The event started at around 7:00pm and ended at 10:00pm.
