今天又去了我最愛的北美館一趟.
說真的,喜歡藝術的人怎能不利用北美這段連門票都不用收的期間?? (除了特展外)
就算不喜歡藝術 或自認為看不懂藝術的人 也照樣能去吹吹冷氣 聽聽導覽 周六夜約約朋友 或男女朋友去都是很有氣質的選擇呢!
真希望蔡國強的"泡美術館"理念能再多散播出去....:)
神經感官被新的事物(對我而言,尤其是藝術)所刺激是多麼棒的一件事...
今天去晃了北美,4:20多才到,平日5:30就閉館了..
只為了去把上次沒有帶筆記本抄下來的一些藝術家的話語寫下來, 也跟有緣的人分享.
我只抄下了英文...中文的話,也很美.但光是要寫個中文字就要花我不少時間...呵(不是我不會寫或寫得很吃力,而是筆劃多呀!)
Anyway, enjoy! (學過&認識的幾個我用*標,就算學了藝術史,我也沒有全部都知道...)
*Mary Cassatt (Impressionist) - I have touched certain people with my artistic sensibility - they have received the sensations of love and life. To what can one compare this joy for an artist?
Georges Rouault - The artist renounces all the theories, both his own and those of others. He forgets all when facing his canvas.
*Fernand Leger - The figure of a human is no more important than that of a key or a bicycle.
*Pablo Picasso - I have directed my life towards learning how to draw like a child.
*Andre Derain (Fauvist) - Color is the materialization of light. Thus it is also a materialization of the spirit. Color fixes the light. Where there is light, there is spirit.
*Claude Monet (Impressionist) - Color is my daily obsession, my joy and my torment.
*Auguste Rodin (Sculptor) - When a good sculptor shapes a human body, he does not only represent musculature, but also the life that reanimates it.
*Rousseau (childlike/naive style) - As I enter the greenhouse in the Jardin des Plantes and I see strange plants from nations exotic, it seems as if I have entered into a dream.
*Duchamp - The great enemy of art is good taste.
*Renoir (Impressionist) - You arrive before nature with theories, and nature casts them all to the ground.
*Pierre Bonnard (Impressionist) - Painting must return to its initial object, the examination of the interior lives of human beings.
*Georgia O Keeffe - I said to myself "I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to my - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn t occurred to me to put them down." I decided to start anew to strip away what I had been taught.
*Marc Chagall - My circus performs in the sky.
Tanguy - The painting develops before my eyes, unfolding its surprises as it develops.
Eugene-Louis Boudin - All that is painted directly from the subject has always a force, a power, a touch of life that one loses in the studio. The first impression is the best, one must attach oneself to it and refuse to budge from it.
*Degas (Realist) - Painting, it is very easy when you don t know how to paint. Once you know, it is very difficult.
Maurice Utrillo - In all works of art, human feeling should have priority over aesthetic systems or pictorial methods.
*Camille Pissaro (Impressionist) - Paint liberally and without hesitation to preserve the freshness of the first impression.
*Joan Miro - I don't invent anything. Everything is here.
*Manet - The truth is this, art should be the writing of life.
Alfred Sisley - All painting represents some thing with which the painter has fallen in love.
*Robert Delauney (Orphism) - Even if art cannot liberate itself from the object, it can leave behind a description.
*George Braque (Cubist) - Art is made to disturb. Science reassures.
*Paul Gaughin - The work of a man is the explanation of that man.
Amedeo Modigliani - I try to formulate with the greatest clarity, the truth about art and life, in the way that I experienced it.
*Henri Matisse (Fauvist) - That which I dream of is an art of balance, of purity, of tranquility, without disquieting or preoccupying subjects, which is...an emollient, a balm for the mind, a thing analogous to a trusty armchair which absolves the body of its weariness.
*Vincent van Gogh - Making sketches amounts to a planting of seeds that grow into paintings.
有些真的形容得很貼切啊...讀著這些藝術家描述後 再看看他們的作品,就真得很make sense...
光是看著這些quotations就有雞皮疙瘩起來的共鳴&很棒的感動.. :)
