My name is Ursus Wehrli, and I would like to talk to you this morning

我的名字是 Ursus Wehrli﹐今天我想和你們談談我的作品
00:22
about my project, Tidying Up Art.
1
4000
2000
整理藝術
00:24
First of all -- any questions so far?
2
6000
5000
首先 - 有什麼疑問嗎﹖
00:29
First of all, I have to say I'm not from around here.
3
11000
3000
首先﹐我必須說我不是來自這裡
00:32
I'm from a completely different cultural area, maybe you noticed?
4
14000
4000
而是來自一個文化完全不同的地方﹐你發現了嗎﹖
00:36
I mean, I'm wearing a tie, first. And then secondly, I'm a little bit nervous
5
18000
5000
你瞧﹐我打著一條領帶﹐然後﹐我有一點緊張
00:41
because I'm speaking in a foreign language,
6
23000
3000
因為我說的是外國話
00:44
and I want to apologize in advance, for any mistakes I might make.
7
26000
4000
我想先為我接下來可能會犯的錯誤道歉
00:48
Because I'm from Switzerland, and I just don't hope you think this is Swiss German
8
30000
5000
畢竟我是從瑞士來的﹐希望你們不要覺得我說的是瑞士腔的德文
00:53
I'm speaking now here. This is just what it sounds like
9
35000
2000
這不過是一個瑞士人說美語
00:55
if we Swiss try to speak American.
10
37000
3000
的樣子
00:58
But don't worry -- I don't have trouble with English, as such.
11
40000
3000
但不用擔心 - 美語對我來說沒問題
01:01
I mean, it's not my problem, it's your language after all.
12
43000
4000
畢竟這是你們的語言﹐與我無關
01:05
(Laughter)
13
47000
2000
(笑聲)
01:07
I am fine. After this presentation here at TED, I can simply go back to Switzerland,
14
49000
4000
真的﹐反正我結束TED演講以後﹐我回瑞士就好
01:11
and you have to go on talking like this all the time.
15
53000
3000
倒是你還得繼續留在這裡講這種語言
01:14
(Laughter)
16
56000
4000
(笑聲)
01:18
So I've been asked by the organizers to read from my book.
17
60000
3000
大會要求我到這裡來朗讀我的書
01:21
It's called "Tidying Up Art" and it's, as you can see,
18
63000
3000
書名是"整理藝術"，如你所見
01:24
it's more or less a picture book.
19
66000
3000
這是一本圖畫書
01:27
So the reading would be over very quickly.
20
69000
4000
所以很快就讀完了
01:31
But since I'm here at TED, I decided to hold my talk here in a more modern way,
21
73000
6000
但既然我在TED，我決定用比較先進的方式來發表我的演講
01:37
in the spirit of TED here, and I managed to do some slides here for you.
22
79000
4000
以TED精神﹐我做了這些投影片
01:41
I'd like to show them around so we can just, you know --
23
83000
4000
我想在這裡跟你們分享﹐像這樣
01:45
(Laughter)
24
87000
2000
(笑聲)
01:47
Actually, I managed to prepare for you some enlarged pictures -- even better.
25
89000
3000
說真的﹐我也準備了一些放大圖片 - 這樣更好
01:50
So Tidying Up Art, I mean, I have to say, that's a relatively new term.
26
92000
5000
整理藝術﹐是一個非常新的名詞
01:55
You won't be familiar with it.
27
97000
2000
你可能沒有聽過
01:57
I mean, it's a hobby of mine that I've been indulging in for the last few years,
28
99000
5000
這是我這幾年來的一點小興趣
02:02
and it all started out with this picture of the American artist, Donald Baechler
29
104000
5000
一切都從美國藝術家 Donald Baechler 的作品開始
02:07
I had hanging at home. I had to look at it every day
30
109000
3000
我家裡有一幅﹐我每天看著它
02:10
and after a while I just couldn't stand the mess anymore
31
112000
4000
過了一陣子我實在受不了這種凌亂
02:14
this guy was looking at all day long.
32
116000
3000
這個傢伙天天這樣盯著
02:17
Yeah, I kind of felt sorry for him.
33
119000
3000
我真為他感到抱歉
02:20
And it seemed to me even he felt really bad
34
122000
2000
我覺得甚至他自己也不是很舒服
02:22
facing these unorganized red squares day after day.
35
124000
4000
每天都看著這些亂七八糟的紅方塊
02:26
So I decided to give him a little support,
36
128000
2000
於是我決定幫他一把
02:28
and brought some order into neatly stacking the blocks on top of each other.
37
130000
5000
把這些方塊整齊地堆起來
02:33
(Laughter)
38
135000
3000
(笑聲)
02:36
Yeah. And I think he looks now less miserable.
39
138000
4000
我覺得他現在看起來沒這麼悲慘了
02:40
And it was great. With this experience, I started to look more closely
40
142000
6000
有了這次的愉快經驗以後﹐我開始更仔細地觀察現代藝術
02:46
at modern art. Then I realized how, you know, the world of modern art
41
148000
5000
我發覺﹐現代藝術的世界
02:51
is particularly topsy-turvy.
42
153000
2000
真是有混亂
02:53
And I can show here a very good example.
43
155000
3000
讓我給你一個好例子
02:56
It's actually a simple one, but it's a good one to start with.
44
158000
3000
從一個非常簡單的例子開始
02:59
It's a picture by Paul Klee.
45
161000
3000
這是保羅·克利的作品
03:02
And we can see here very clearly, it's a confusion of color.
46
164000
4000
我們可以很清楚的看到﹐顏色一篇混亂
03:06
(Laughter)
47
168000
2000
(笑聲)
03:08
Yeah. The artist doesn't really seem to know where to put the different colors.
48
170000
6000
他好像不知道怎麼把不同顏色放在一起
03:14
The various pictures here of the various elements of the picture --
49
176000
3000
這裡有這張作品的不同元素
03:17
the whole thing is unstructured.
50
179000
1000
把它解構以後
03:18
We don't know, maybe Mr. Klee was probably in a hurry, I mean --
51
180000
4000
可能當時克利先生趕時間
03:22
(Laughter)
52
184000
2000
(笑聲)
03:24
-- maybe he had to catch a plane, or something.
53
186000
3000
可能他正在趕一班飛機
03:27
We can see here he started out with orange,
54
189000
3000
我們可以看到他從桔色開始
03:30
and then he already ran out of orange,
55
192000
3000
然後慢慢用完桔色顏料
03:33
and here we can see he decided to take a break for a square.
56
195000
4000
這裡我們可以看到他稍微休息了一格
03:37
And I would like to show you here my tidied up version of this picture.
57
199000
3000
現在看看經過我整理以後
03:40
(Laughter)
58
202000
5000
(笑聲)
03:45
We can see now what was barely recognizable in the original:
59
207000
4000
我們可以看到在原本圖畫中看不到的
03:49
17 red and orange squares are juxtaposed with just two green squares.
60
211000
7000
十七個紅色和橘色方塊，還有兩個綠色方塊搗亂
03:56
Yeah, that's great.
61
218000
1000
很好
03:57
So I mean, that's just tidying up for beginners.
62
219000
6000
不過那只是初級的整理罷了
04:03
I would like to show you here a picture which is a bit more advanced.
63
225000
3000
現在我們來看看比較複雜的圖片
04:06
(Laughter)
64
228000
5000
(笑聲)
04:11
What can you say? What a mess.
65
233000
1000
怎麼說呢﹖亂成一團
04:12
I mean, you see, everything seems to have been scattered aimlessly around the space.
66
234000
7000
所有東西都被隨意的扔到這個空間裡
04:19
If my room back home had looked like this,
67
241000
3000
如果我的房間長這樣的話
04:22
my mother would have grounded me for three days.
68
244000
2000
我媽可是會懲罰我禁足三天的
04:24
So I'd like to -- I wanted to reintroduce some structure into that picture.
69
246000
5000
於是 - 讓我來重新規範一下這張圖畫
04:29
And that's really advanced tidying up.
70
251000
5000
這真的是很複雜的
04:34
(Applause)
71
256000
3000
(掌聲)
04:37
Yeah, you're right. Sometimes people clap at this point,
72
259000
2000
沒錯﹐有些人在這裡會拍手
04:39
but that's actually more in Switzerland.
73
261000
3000
但這是比較瑞士的方式
04:42
(Laughter)
74
264000
5000
(笑聲)
04:47
We Swiss are famous for chocolate and cheese. Our trains run on time.
75
269000
4000
我們瑞士出名的有巧克力和起司﹐火車準時
04:51
We are only happy when things are in order.
76
273000
3000
一切井井有條的時候我們才會快樂
04:54
But to go on, here is a very good example to see.
77
276000
4000
讓我們再舉一些其他例子
04:58
This is a picture by Joan Miro.
78
280000
3000
這是米羅的作品
05:01
And yeah, we can see the artist has drawn a few lines and shapes
79
283000
5000
我們可以看到他畫了一些線條和形狀
05:06
and dropped them any old way onto a yellow background.
80
288000
4000
隨便地把它們畫在黃色背景上
05:10
And yeah, it's the sort of thing you produce when you're doodling on the phone.
81
292000
3000
就像我們一邊講電話一邊在紙上亂畫的那些東西
05:13
(Laughter)
82
295000
3000
(笑聲)
05:16
And this is my --
83
298000
1000
這是我的
05:17
(Laughter)
84
299000
3000
(笑聲)
05:20
-- you can see now the whole thing takes up far less space.
85
302000
4000
你可以看到我們節省了很多空間
05:24
It's more economical and also more efficient.
86
306000
3000
經濟實惠又有效率
05:27
With this method Mr. Miro could have saved canvas for another picture.
87
309000
4000
米羅先生如果用這種辦法的話﹐可以省下一半畫面再畫一幅
05:31
But I can see in your faces that you're still a little bit skeptical.
88
313000
4000
我知道你們仍然有點存疑
05:35
So that you can just appreciate how serious I am about all this,
89
317000
4000
為了證明我的認真
05:39
I brought along the patents, the specifications for some of these works,
90
321000
5000
我帶來了我申請的專利﹐這些作品的規格
05:44
because I've had my working methods patented
91
326000
2000
我特別在瑞士的專利協會
05:46
at the Eidgenössische Amt für Geistiges Eigentum in Bern, Switzerland.
92
328000
4000
為我整理藝術的手法申請了專利
05:50
(Laughter)
93
332000
3000
(笑聲)
05:53
I'll just quote from the specification.
94
335000
2000
讓我唸一段說明給你們聽
05:55
"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht --"
95
337000
4000
"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht --"
05:59
It's not finished yet.
96
341000
2000
還沒結束
06:01
"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht Götz von Ohlenhusen
97
343000
4000
"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht Götz von Ohlenhusen
06:05
wird die Verfahrensweise rechtlich geschützt welche die Kunst
98
347000
3000
wird die Verfahrensweise rechtlich geschützt welche die Kunst
06:08
durch spezifisch aufgeräumte Regelmässigkeiten
99
350000
2000
durch spezifisch aufgeräumte Regelmässigkeiten
06:10
des allgemeinen Formenschatzes
100
352000
2000
des allgemeinen Formenschatzes
06:12
neue Wirkungen zu erzielen möglich wird."
101
354000
3000
neue Wirkungen zu erzielen möglich wird."
06:17
Ja, well I could have translated that, but you would have been none the wiser.
102
359000
4000
是﹐當然我也可以翻譯﹐但你們也不會更了解的
06:21
I'm not sure myself what it means but it sounds good anyway.
103
363000
4000
連我自己都不太懂﹐至少聽起來不錯
06:25
I just realized it's important how one introduces new ideas to people,
104
367000
5000
我剛意識到介紹一個新點子的手法是很重要的
06:30
that's why these patents are sometimes necessary.
105
372000
2000
所以有時專利是必要的
06:32
I would like to do a short test with you.
106
374000
2000
我想做一個小小的試驗
06:34
Everyone is sitting in quite an orderly fashion here this morning.
107
376000
3000
在座的每個人都坐的很整齊
06:37
So I would like to ask you all to raise your right hand. Yeah.
108
379000
5000
現在大家舉起你們的右手
06:42
The right hand is the one we write with, apart from the left-handers.
109
384000
3000
我們用來寫字的那個手﹐除了左撇子以外
06:45
And now, I'll count to three. I mean, it still looks very orderly to me.
110
387000
5000
然後﹐我數到三﹐現在看起來還很整齊
06:50
Now, I'll count to three, and on the count of three
111
392000
2000
當我數到三的時候
06:52
I'd like you all to shake hands with the person behind you. OK?
112
394000
3000
你們就跟後面的那個人握手
06:55
One, two, three.
113
397000
2000
一﹐二﹐三
06:57
(Laughter)
114
399000
9000
(笑聲)
07:06
You can see now, that's a good example: even behaving in an orderly, systematic way
115
408000
4000
誠如所見﹐這就是個很好的例子﹕就算大家都秩序井然
07:10
can sometimes lead to complete chaos.
116
412000
3000
還是有可能造成完全的混亂
07:13
So we can also see that very clearly in this next painting.
117
415000
4000
我們可以從以下的例子裡看到
07:17
This is a painting by the artist, Niki de Saint Phalle.
118
419000
5000
畫的作者是 Niki de Saint Phalle
07:22
And I mean, in the original it's completely unclear to see
119
424000
5000
在這裡你看不清楚
07:27
what this tangle of colors and shapes is supposed to depict.
120
429000
5000
這些顏色和形狀畫的是什麼
07:32
But in the tidied up version, it's plain to see that it's a sunburnt woman playing volleyball.
121
434000
5000
經過整理以後﹐很明顯﹐這是一個曬傷的女人在打排球
07:38
(Laughter)
122
440000
3000
(笑聲)
07:41
Yeah, it's a -- this one here, that's much better.
123
443000
7000
沒錯﹐這個更清楚
07:48
That's a picture by Keith Haring.
124
450000
3000
這是 Keith Haring 的作品
07:51
(Laughter)
125
453000
4000
(笑聲)
07:55
I think it doesn't matter.
126
457000
2000
我想沒差
07:57
So, I mean, this picture has not even got a proper title.
127
459000
4000
這幅畫的名字很好
08:01
It's called "Untitled" and I think that's appropriate.
128
463000
6000
它就叫"無題"﹐取得真好
08:07
So, in the tidied-up version we have a sort of Keith Haring spare parts shop.
129
469000
5000
於是經過整理以後﹐我們就可以看到這間 Keith Harding 五金行
08:12
(Laughter)
130
474000
3000
(笑聲)
08:15
This is Keith Haring looked at statistically.
131
477000
3000
用統計學的角度來看
08:18
One can see here quite clearly,
132
480000
2000
我們可以很清楚的看到
08:20
you can see we have 25 pale green elements,
133
482000
4000
這裡有25個淺綠色的元素
08:24
of which one is in the form of a circle.
134
486000
2000
有一個是圓形
08:26
Or here, for example, we have 27 pink squares with only one pink curve.
135
488000
5000
這裡有27個粉紅色的方形﹐只有一個粉紅彎形
08:31
I mean, that's interesting. One could extend this sort of statistical analysis
136
493000
4000
非常有趣﹐有人可以在所有 Harding 先生的作品上
08:35
to cover all Mr. Haring's various works,
137
497000
2000
做一些統計分析
08:37
in order to establish in which period the artist favored pale green circles or pink squares.
138
499000
6000
看看畫家在各個時期對淺綠圓形和粉紅方形的偏好
08:43
And the artist himself could also benefit from this sort of listing procedure
139
505000
4000
藝術家自己也可以從列出的清單中
08:47
by using it to estimate how many pots of paint he's likely to need in the future.
140
509000
5000
算出自己以後需要多少顏料
08:52
(Laughter)
141
514000
1000
(笑聲)
08:53
One can obviously also make combinations.
142
515000
3000
你也可以把它們組合在一起
08:56
For example, with the Keith Haring circles and Kandinsky's dots.
143
518000
4000
Haring 的方形和 Kandinsky 的點點
09:00
You can add them to all the squares of Paul Klee.
144
522000
2000
在把它加入克利的方形
09:02
In the end, one has a list with which one then can arrange.
145
524000
3000
最後你就有一整個清單可以排列
09:05
Then you categorize it, then you file it, put that file in a filing cabinet,
146
527000
4000
你將它們分類﹐建檔﹐最後再全部放進檔案櫃裡
09:09
put it in your office and you can make a living doing it.
147
531000
6000
放進你的辦公室﹐然後就可以以此為生了
09:15
(Laughter)
148
537000
2000
(笑聲)
09:17
Yeah, from my own experience. So I'm --
149
539000
2000
就像我一樣
09:19
(Laughter)
150
541000
3000
(笑聲)
09:22
Actually, I mean, here we have some artists that are a bit more structured. It's not too bad.
151
544000
5000
其實也有幾個藝術家是比較有條理的
09:27
This is Jasper Johns. We can see here he was practicing with his ruler.
152
549000
5000
這是 Jasper Johns，我們可以看見他正在練習使用他的尺
09:32
(Laughter)
153
554000
2000
(笑聲)
09:34
But I think it could still benefit from more discipline.
154
556000
4000
但我仍然覺得他可以再更有條不紊一點
09:38
And I think the whole thing adds up much better if you do it like this.
155
560000
4000
把這些都加起來﹐你就可以這樣做
09:42
(Laughter)
156
564000
6000
(笑聲)
09:48
And here, that's one of my favorites.
157
570000
3000
我最喜歡的作品之一
09:51
Tidying up Rene Magritte -- this is really fun.
158
573000
3000
整理 Rene Magritte - 這真的很好玩
09:54
You know, there is a --
159
576000
1000
你看
09:55
(Laughter)
160
577000
2000
(笑聲)
09:57
I'm always being asked what inspired me to embark on all this.
161
579000
4000
很多人問我是什麼讓我這樣做的
10:01
It goes back to a time when I was very often staying in hotels.
162
583000
3000
這必須要追溯到﹐我時常住在旅館的那段時間
10:04
So once I had the opportunity to stay in a ritzy, five-star hotel.
163
586000
4000
有一次我有機會住在麗池五星旅館
10:08
And you know, there you had this little sign --
164
590000
2000
你知道﹐那裡有這些標語
10:10
I put this little sign outside the door every morning that read,
165
592000
6000
每天早上你可以放在門口
10:16
"Please tidy room." I don't know if you have them over here.
166
598000
3000
”請整理房間“我不知道我在這裡有沒有
10:19
So actually, my room there hasn't been tidied once daily, but three times a day.
167
601000
6000
事實上﹐我的房間不只是一天整理一次﹐是一天整理了三次
10:25
So after a while I decided to have a little fun,
168
607000
3000
過了一陣子我決定開個玩笑
10:28
and before leaving the room each day I'd scatter a few things around the space.
169
610000
5000
在每天離開房間裡我都會故意四處亂扔些東西
10:33
Like books, clothes, toothbrush, etc. And it was great.
170
615000
4000
書﹐衣服﹐牙刷等等﹐很不錯
10:37
By the time I returned everything had always been neatly returned to its place.
171
619000
4000
我每次回房間的時候一切都回歸原位
10:41
But then one morning, I hang the same little sign onto that picture by Vincent van Gogh.
172
623000
8000
有一天早上﹐我在梵古的畫上掛了這個標語
10:49
(Laughter)
173
631000
2000
(笑聲)
10:51
And you have to say this room hadn't been tidied up since 1888.
174
633000
6000
這個房間從1888年以後就沒整理過了
10:57
And when I returned it looked like this.
175
639000
3000
當我回來的時候﹐它變成了這樣
11:00
(Laughter)
176
642000
7000
(笑聲)
11:07
Yeah, at least it is now possible to do some vacuuming.
177
649000
2000
至少現在可以吸地了
11:09
(Laughter)
178
651000
3000
(笑聲)
11:12
OK, I mean, I can see there are always people
179
654000
2000
我可以了解為什麼有些人
11:14
that like reacting that one or another picture
180
656000
4000
會對某些特殊的圖畫特別有感覺
11:18
hasn't been properly tidied up. So we can make a short test with you.
181
660000
5000
覺得它需要整理﹐讓我們做一個小測驗
11:23
This is a picture by Rene Magritte,
182
665000
2000
這是 Rene Magritte 的圖畫
11:25
and I'd like you all to inwardly -- like in your head, that is --
183
667000
4000
現在你們可以在心中把它整理一下
11:29
to tidy that up. So it's possible that some of you would make it like this.
184
671000
6000
我想你們之中的有些人可能會把它整理成這樣
11:35
(Laughter)
185
677000
2000
(笑聲)
11:37
Yeah? I would actually prefer to do it more this way.
186
679000
5000
是嗎﹖但我比較喜歡把它整理成這樣
11:42
Some people would make apple pie out of it.
187
684000
4000
有些人會把它做成蘋果派
11:46
But it's a very good example to see that the whole work
188
688000
2000
但這是一個很好的例子﹐說明這是一項
11:48
was more of a handicraft endeavor that involved the very time-consuming job
189
690000
5000
非常費時的手工業
11:53
of cutting out the various elements and sticking them back in new arrangements.
190
695000
6000
你得把不同元素剪下來﹐再把它重新安排
11:59
And it's not done, as many people imagine, with the computer,
191
701000
3000
而不是像你們之中很多人想像的﹐用電腦做的
12:02
otherwise it would look like this.
192
704000
4000
不然它就會變成這樣
12:06
(Laughter)
193
708000
5000
(笑聲)
12:11
So now I've been able to tidy up pictures that I've wanted to tidy up for a long time.
194
713000
6000
目前為止﹐我已經整理了很多我想要處理的圖畫
12:17
Here is a very good example. Take Jackson Pollock, for example.
195
719000
3000
就像這個 Jackson Pollock 的作品
12:20
It's -- oh, no, it's -- that's a really hard one.
196
722000
5000
這很困難﹐真的
12:25
But after a while, I just decided here to go all the way
197
727000
5000
過了一陣子﹐我決定一不做二不休
12:30
and put the paint back into the cans.
198
732000
3000
把顏料全放回它們原來的地方
12:33
(Applause)
199
735000
10000
(掌聲)
12:43
Or you could go into three-dimensional art.
200
745000
5000
你也可以整理3D藝術
12:48
Here we have the fur cup by Meret Oppenheim.
201
750000
5000
像 Meret Oppenheim 的毛杯
12:53
Here I just brought it back to its original state.
202
755000
3000
讓它們回到原來的模樣
12:56
(Laughter)
203
758000
8000
(笑聲)
13:04
But yeah, and it's great, you can even go, you know --
204
766000
5000
真的﹐很棒﹐你甚至可以嘗試
13:09
Or we have this pointillist movement for those of you who are into art.
205
771000
6000
如果你喜歡藝術的話﹐這是點彩畫派的作品
13:15
The pointillist movement is that kind of paintings
206
777000
2000
點彩畫派便是所有畫都是由
13:18
where everything is broken down into dots and pixels.
207
780000
3000
點和像素組成的
13:21
And then I -- this sort of thing is ideal for tidying up.
208
783000
4000
這是最適合整理的了
13:25
(Laughter)
209
787000
3000
(笑聲)
13:28
So I once applied myself to the work of the inventor of that method, Georges Seurat,
210
790000
4000
這是點彩畫派的創始人 Georges Seurat
13:32
and I collected together all his dots.
211
794000
2000
我把他的所有點都收集起來
13:34
And now they're all in here.
212
796000
2000
它們全在這裡
13:36
(Laughter)
213
798000
5000
(笑聲)
13:41
You can count them afterwards, if you like.
214
803000
1000
你可以晚點把它們清點一下﹐如果你想要的話
13:42
You see, that's the wonderful thing about the tidy up art idea:
215
804000
5000
你知道﹐這就是整理畫作的好處
13:47
it's new. So there is no existing tradition in it.
216
809000
3000
這是全新的﹐沒有任何傳統
13:50
There is no textbooks, I mean, not yet, anyway.
217
812000
4000
沒有教科書﹐至少現在還沒有
13:54
I mean, it's "the future we will create."
218
816000
4000
這是“我們創造的未來”
13:58
(Laughter)
219
820000
2000
(笑聲)
14:00
But to round things up I would like to show you just one more.
220
822000
5000
最後我們再看一個例子
14:05
This is the village square by Pieter Bruegel.
221
827000
3000
這是由 Pieter Bruegel 所畫的廣場
14:08
That's how it looks like when you send everyone home.
222
830000
3000
你把每個人趕回家以後就變成這樣
14:11
(Laughter)
223
833000
11000
(笑聲)
14:22
Yeah, maybe you're asking yourselves
224
844000
2000
但或許你會自問
14:24
where old Bruegel's people went?
225
846000
4000
那這些人都去了哪裡﹖
14:28
Of course, they're not gone. They're all here.
226
850000
4000
當然﹐他們還在。他們全在這裡
14:32
(Laughter)
227
854000
1000
(笑聲)
14:33
I just piled them up.
228
855000
2000
我把他們堆了起來
14:35
(Laughter)
229
857000
4000
(笑聲)
14:39
So I'm -- yeah, actually I'm kind of finished at that moment.
230
861000
4000
嗯好﹐我差不多已經講完了
14:43
And for those who want to see more, I've got my book downstairs in the bookshop.
231
865000
5000
如果你想看其他例子﹐你可以到樓下的書店去買
14:49
And I'm happy to sign it for you with any name of any artist.
232
871000
3000
我很榮幸為你簽名﹐你想要我簽哪個畫家的名字都可以
14:54
(Laughter)
233
876000
2000
(笑聲)
14:56
But before leaving I would like to show you,
234
878000
4000
離開前我想給你們看一個東西
15:00
I'm working right now on another -- in a related field
235
882000
5000
最近我在做的新作品 - 和這個有關的
15:05
with my tidying up art method. I'm working in a related field.
236
887000
3000
也是整理
15:08
And I started to bring some order into some flags.
237
890000
6000
我開始整理國旗
15:14
Here -- that's just my new proposal here for the Union Jack.
238
896000
7000
你看﹐英國國旗可以變成這樣
15:21
(Laughter)
239
903000
5000
(笑聲)
15:26
And then maybe before I leave you ...
240
908000
5000
在我離去以前
15:31
yeah, I think, after you have seen that I have to leave anyway.
241
913000
4000
我是說﹐我想我最好趕快離開
15:35
(Laughter)
242
917000
3000
(笑聲)
15:38
Yeah, that was a hard one. I couldn't find a way to tidy that up properly,
243
920000
6000
這個真的很難﹐我沒辦法整理它
15:44
so I just decided to make it a little bit more simpler.
244
926000
4000
我只好把它做得簡單一點
15:48
(Laughter)
245
930000
2000
(笑聲)
15:50
Thank you very much.
246
932000
1000
非常謝謝打擊
15:51
(Applause)
247
933000
1000
(掌聲)
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Ursus Wehrli - ComedianComedian and cabaret artist Ursus Wehrli is on a crusade to tidy up art.
Why you should listen
Comedian and cabaret artist Ursus Wehrli is the author of Tidying Up Art, a visionary manifesto that yearns toward a more rational, more organized and cleaner form of modern art. In deconstructing the work of Paul Klee, Jaspen Johns and other masters into its component parts, organized by color and size, Wehrli posits a more perfect art world.
His book The Art of Clean Up extends this principle into the physical world, with extremely (though oddly) satisfying results. Click through to see what a bowl of alphabet soup would look like in Wehrli's world.
