从费城美术馆本月开幕的回顾展进入杜尚:主读《纽约客》那篇把他一生讲透的长文,再讲清他的方法、这个秋天在费城能看什么,以及中文里现在有什么。




爱不是一个通常会和杜尚放在一起的词……让他这场展览好看的,正是爱——爱脑子以及它能做的事、爱身体和游戏、爱自由、爱艺术可能成为的样子、爱女人、酷儿身份、诗和偶然。
Love isn't a word, or a concept, that one usually associates with Marcel Duchamp … but love—love of the mind and what it can do, love of bodies and play, love of freedom, love of what art can be, love of women, queerdom, poetry, and chance—is what makes "Marcel Duchamp" … such a wonder.
我不相信说话。我们已经聊了好几个小时了!可别信我说的。
I don't believe in talking. Here we have been talking for hours! But don't believe what I say.
他们管它叫机器时代,对吧?……我感兴趣的是用机械的方式来做,如果我想走出传统的话。/走进新的东西?/够新了。
Yes, they call it the machine age, don't they? … I was interested in using a mechanistic approach, if I wanted to step out of tradition. / And into something new? / New enough.
可怜的蒙娜丽莎已经没了;不管她的微笑多美,被看得太多了,那微笑就消失了。
The poor Mona Lisa is gone because no matter how wonderful her smile may be, it's been looked at so much that the smile has disappeared.
艺术不过是跟一门行当配套的技术知识,去拉鲁斯词典里查查就知道。那什么叫「美术」?所有的艺术都美。磨刀匠这门艺术就美得很。
Art is simply the technical knowledge that goes with a profession. Look it up in the Larousse dictionary. So what are the Fine Arts? All the arts are fine. The knifegrinder's art is particularly fine.
