Although Taiwan and Poland do not maintain formal diplomatic relations, the two countries share close ties built on economic and technological cooperation, and cultural exchanges. In Taipei, the Polish representative office plays a key role in fostering these connections, regularly organizing concerts, exhibitions, and book fairs to showcase Poland’s culture. FTV reporter Stephany Yang sat down with the Polish Office’s public diplomacy and cultural affairs expert to learn more about how these initiatives are strengthening the bond between Taiwan and Poland.
Recently, Poland showcased Polish literature, poetry, and children’s books at the Taipei International Book Exhibition. Selected titles were also available in Mandarin, strengthening cultural exchanges between Taiwan and Poland.

I am very impressed by the fair itself, by the number of young people coming here. And then, by the quality of production of children’s books, for instance. They are really beautiful. And then, an important point is the openness of Taiwanese publishers for translation.

Literature is only a part of Polish culture that we promote. We are the Polish Office. We also have other events like classical music concerts, we have jazz music concerts, we have graphic designers coming to Taiwan, and different exhibitions in place in Taiwan. Not only in Taipei—we are going more far. Also to Tainan, Kaohsiung, and we even have an event in Pingtung last year.
These initiatives highlight Poland’s commitment to showcasing a wide spectrum of its culture in Taiwan, reaching audiences across the island and building bridges through art, literature, and music.

The biggest event we actually have year by year is in Daan Park. It is the Chopin Outdoor Recital where we have very beautiful performances by pianists in the Daan outdoor theater. Last year it was Wei-Ting Hsieh, a pianist from Taiwan, who performed twice in the Chopin Competition in Poland. We have plans to repeat it also this year. There is a project called One Voice. One Voice is a collaboration of Polish and Taiwanese singers who sing together. This one is in May. All of the concerts will be announced soon on our Facebook but we also have jazz musicians, including jazz star Anna Maria Jopek, coming to Taiwan this autumn.
Through these cultural exchanges, the Polish Office in Taipei hopes to continue to strengthen ties with Taiwan, creating opportunities for collaboration and appreciation across literature, music, and the arts.

"書展本身和來這裡的年輕人數量給我留下了深刻的印象。兒童書的製作品質，而且真的很美。最重要的一點是，台灣出版商對翻譯的開放態度。"

"文學只是我們所提倡的波蘭文化的一部分。我們波蘭臺北辦事處還有其他活動，像是古典音樂會、爵士音樂會、平面設計師來到台灣，以及在台灣舉辦不同的展覽。不只是在台北，還有台南、高雄，去年我們甚至到屏東去。"
這些活動顯示了波蘭致力於在台灣展現其多元豐富的文化，不僅觸及全台各地的觀眾，更透過藝術、文學與音樂搭建起溝通的橋樑。

"我們每年舉辦的最大的活動是在大安森林公園，也就是蕭邦戶外音樂會，我們在露天劇場有鋼琴家的精彩表演。去年，來自台灣的鋼琴家謝維庭在波蘭蕭邦比賽中兩度演出。我們計劃今年也要再次舉辦。有一個名為「One Voice」的計畫，是波蘭和台灣歌手的合作，這是五月的事。所有音樂會很快都會在我們的 Facebook上公布，我們也有爵士音樂家，包括Anna Maria Jopek，將於今年秋天來到台灣。"
波蘭臺北辦事處希望透過這些文化交流，持續加強與台灣的聯繫，創造文學、音樂和藝術領域的合作和欣賞機會。
