  • 作為當代藝術的先驅,日本視覺藝術家奈良美智以多元的藝術創作,探索孤獨、靈性及童真反叛。《浪遊浮世系列》此作中,藝術家從十六件著名的日本傳統浮世繪木刻版畫取材,再加上個人的詮釋。浮世繪盛行於江戶時代(1603-1868),畫師捕捉了都市生活的燈紅酒綠與及時行樂的生活態度,描繪相撲力士、遊女、武士、藝妓,以及其他文學或民間故事角色。

     

     

    東洲齋寫樂, 《浮世繪》, 1794年作

     

    奈良結合傳統美學與自身見解,訴說另一組奇特故事並重新詮釋,譬如將鳥高齋榮昌(1700s)的著名藝妓白露頭像,換成調皮小孩的模樣,又將藝妓的髮簪變成滴血的釘子。這些變奏的版畫有的詼諧,有的批判社會,畫中主角以奈良的招牌卡通風格呈現,可愛的臉上顯露叛逆、憂傷或迷惑的表情奈良作品中所展現的脆弱、反抗以及永恆的希望十分巧妙的融合在一起,這也使他獲得了全世界的追隨者。而這個系列就是一個非常好的例子,它告訴我們,獨特而又具有普遍親和力的藝術語言可以與各年齡階段及不同背景的人產生強烈的共鳴。

      As a pioneering figure in contemporary art, Japanese visual artist Yoshitomo Nara is renowned for his multidisciplinary practice that explores themes of solitude, spirituality, and childlike rebellion. In the Floating World presents the viewer with altered reproductions of sixteen famous woodblock prints from the traditional Japanese genre of Ukiyo-e. Widely popular during the Edo period (1603-1868), Ukiyo-e artists created works that showcased the joie de vivre attitude of the people and environments in the cities’ pleasure districts. In particular, this included sumo-wrestlers, courtesans, warriors, teahouse mistresses, and other characters from the literature and folklore of the time. Nara’s versions share unique tales of their own, as he infuses traditional aesthetics with his prolific artistic vision to offer new interpretations, such as in the reworked woodcut by Chōkōsai Eishō where the head of the courtesan Shiratsuyu is replaced with that of a mischievous child, and the courtesan’s hairpins have been substituted for nails dripping in blood. Some of the appropriated prints are humorous whilst others offer a more critical social comment, led by protagonists who are rendered in Nara’s signature cartoon-esque aesthetic, with looks of defiance, melancholy, or confusion on their otherwise too-cute faces. As embodied in the playful nature of the present work, is through these subjects that Nara has enthralled the imaginations and garnered the respect of museums, collectors, and a loyal following worldwide.
