葛饰北斋艺术展翻译

Tabaimo (born 1975) Japan
The Obscuring Moon 2016

Latticed partitions from Utagawa Hiroshige’s Moon-viewing Point, 1857 ominously slide open and shut, releasing mysterious beasts into the moonlit environment. The Obscuring Moon, 2016 was inspired by the Japanese collections at the Seattle Art Museum. Utilising the ancient concept of utsushi (paying homage to past masters through emulation) Tabaimo transposes Hiroshige’s Moon-viewing Point into an animated video format. Thought to depict one of the many brothels or inns in the settlement of Shinagawa, Hiroshige’s print is unsettling in what it leaves absent or unsaid.
束芋 (1975年生)日本 隐月 2016 多媒体,人造舞台,片长10分36秒 纽约 James Cohan画廊及日本小柳画廊共同拥有 葛饰北斋观月处(1857)画作中描绘的格子纸门时开时合,将神秘的异兽引入了月光荧荧的世界。隐月 2016 从美国西雅图美术馆的日本藏品中得到灵感,加入了对日本“笔意”传统的致敬(“笔意”即用新的方式模拟往昔大家的意境),束芋用动画的方式将北斋的名作演绎了出来。在描绘某间位于江户品川的风月场或客栈的表象之下,隐藏着对于留白与未知的不安感。
An empty straw mat (tatami) dominates the centre of the composition, while the room’s occupants, a geisha on the right and a courtesan on the left, are half-hidden from view. The Obscuring Moon re-imagines and expands upon the mysterious ambiguity suggested in the etched lines of the woodblock print and hint at a darker, more sinister narrative. 位于占据画面中央的榻榻米左右两侧的风月女子和艺妓,犹抱琵琶半遮面,让人不见全貌。这幅由木刻版画衍生而来的作品在原作的神秘与隐晦之上,更添加了暗黑和妖异的氛围。

Four Seasons, a 1000 Years, Terraced Rice Fields – Tashibunosho 2016
six-channel digital video

Workers sow rice crops, people celebrate the harvest, a crane soars through the sky, and day turns to night. Focusing on Kyushu Island’s famed rice fields of Tashibunosho – unchanged for over 1200 years – this digital artwork explores the links between people and nature, seasonal change and the passing of time. teamLab (2001年组建) 四季、千年、梯田 – 田染庄 2016 六屏幕多媒体 teamLab和Martin Browne 藏品
农民正在撒种,群众正在欢庆丰收,晴空一鹤排云而上,转眼日光幻化为夜色。这件作品描绘了日本九州著名的梯田——田染庄1200年间未变之风情,将人与自然的和谐,季节的转换,以及时光的流逝娓娓道来。
Synchronised with real-life seasons, weather and time in Tashibunosho, the artwork immerses you within its landscape, connecting you to distant geographic environments through a shared moment in time. In constant evolution, each moment in this artwork is unique and rendered in shifting abstract colours and shapes, so that the layered history of Tashibunosho unfolds for you in an ever-changing present. 和现实中田染庄的季节、天气、时间相呼应,这幅作品将观者带入了山水之中,让万里之外的人也能够天涯共此时。作品中的色调与风情时时变换,让人在多变的现实体验中拨开田染庄的层层历史。
