こんにちは皆さん
00:17
I'm an artist and a dad -- second time around.
1
2000
3000
私は画家であり 2度目に奮闘中の父親です
00:20
Thank you.
2
5000
2000
どうも
00:22
And I want to share with you my latest art project.
3
7000
3000
私の最新のアートプロジェクトをご覧いただこうと思います
00:25
It's a children's book for the iPad.
4
10000
3000
子ども向けのiPadの本です
00:28
It's a little quirky and silly.
5
13000
2000
ちょっと奇妙でおかしな
00:30
It's called "Pop-It,"
6
15000
2000
『POP-IT』という本で
00:32
And it's about the things little kids do with their parents.
7
17000
3000
基本的に小さな子が親と一緒にすることを描いています
00:35
(Music)
8
20000
2000
00:37
So this is about potty training --
9
22000
2000
これはトイレの練習です
00:39
as most of you, I hope, know.
10
24000
3000
皆さんもやったことがあるといいのですが
00:42
You can tickle the rug.
11
27000
2000
マットを取ったり
00:44
You can make the baby poop.
12
29000
2000
赤ちゃんにうんちさせたり
00:46
You can do all those fun things.
13
31000
3000
いろんな楽しいことができます
00:50
You can burst bubbles.
14
35000
3000
シャボン玉を割ったり
00:54
You can draw, as everyone should.
15
39000
3000
もちろん絵だって描けます
00:58
But you know, I have a problem with children's books:
16
43000
2000
子ども向けの本には問題があると思います
01:00
I think they're full of propaganda.
17
45000
2000
プロパガンダでいっぱいです
01:02
At least an Indian trying to get one of these American books in Park Slope, forget it.
18
47000
3000
パークスロープでアメリカの本を買うインド人にはそうです
01:05
It's not the way I was brought up.
19
50000
3000
私の育った所とは違っています だから思ったんです
01:08
So I said, "I'm going to counter this with my own propaganda."
20
53000
2000
「自分のプロパガンダで対抗しよう」と
01:10
If you notice carefully,
21
55000
2000
よく見てもらうと
01:12
it's a homosexual couple bringing up a child.
22
57000
3000
子どもを育てているのはホモのカップルです
01:15
You don't like it?
23
60000
2000
気に入りませんか？
01:17
Shake it, and you have a lesbian couple.
24
62000
3000
揺すぶってやると レズビアンのカップルになります
01:20
(Laughter)
25
65000
2000
(笑)
01:22
Shake it, and you have a heterosexual couple.
26
67000
4000
もう一回揺すぶってやると 男女のカップルになります
01:26
You know, I don't even believe in the concept of an ideal family.
27
71000
3000
私は理想の家族像なんて信じていないのです
01:29
I have to tell you about my childhood.
28
74000
2000
子どもの頃の話をしましょう
01:31
I went to this very proper Christian school
29
76000
3000
私はすごくきちっとしたキリスト教の学校に行き
01:34
taught by nuns, fathers, brothers, sisters.
30
79000
3000
そこで神父や尼僧や修道士から習っていました
01:37
Basically, I was brought up to be a good Samaritan,
31
82000
2000
良きサマリア人になるよう育てられ
01:39
and I am.
32
84000
2000
そうなりました
01:41
And I'd go at the end of the day to a traditional Hindu house,
33
86000
3000
帰る家はというと 伝統的なヒンドゥーの家です
01:44
which was probably the only Hindu house
34
89000
2000
イスラム教徒ばかりの近所の中で
01:46
in a predominantly Islamic neighborhood.
35
91000
3000
唯一のヒンドゥーの家族でした
01:50
Basically, I celebrated every religious function.
36
95000
3000
あらゆる宗教行事をお祝いしていました
01:53
In fact, when there was a wedding in our neighborhood,
37
98000
3000
実際 近所で結婚式があるときには
01:56
all of us would paint our houses for the wedding.
38
101000
2000
みんなで家を塗り飾ったものです
01:58
I remember we cried profusely
39
103000
2000
夏に一緒に遊んだ子ヤギが
02:00
when the little goats we played with in the summer
40
105000
2000
ビリヤニにされたのを見たときには
02:02
became biriani.
41
107000
2000
すごく泣きましたけど
02:04
(Laughter)
42
109000
2000
(笑)
02:06
We all had to fast during Ramadan.
43
111000
2000
ラマダンの時は断食しないわけにいきません
02:08
It was a very beautiful time.
44
113000
2000
すごくいい時代でした
02:10
But I must say,
45
115000
2000
それから忘れられないことが起きました
02:12
I'll never forget, when I was 13 years old, this happened.
46
117000
3000
13歳の時に
02:15
Babri Masjid --
47
120000
2000
バーブリー・マスジド —
02:17
one of the most beautiful mosques in India,
48
122000
2000
インドにあった最も美しいモスクで
02:19
built by King Babur, I think, in the 16th century --
49
124000
3000
確かバーブル王が16世紀に作ったものですが
02:22
was demolished by Hindu activists.
50
127000
2000
ヒンドゥー過激派によって破壊されたのです
02:24
This caused major riots in my city.
51
129000
2000
私のいた町でも大きな暴動があり
02:26
And for the first time,
52
131000
2000
生まれて初めて
02:28
I was affected
53
133000
2000
社会の動乱を
02:30
by this communal unrest.
54
135000
2000
体験したのです
02:32
My little five-year-old kid neighbor
55
137000
2000
近所の5歳の子が
02:34
comes running in,
56
139000
2000
慌ててやってきて
02:36
and he says, "Rags, Rags.
57
141000
3000
言いました「ラガヴァ ラガヴァ
02:39
You know the Hindus are killing us Muslims. Be careful."
58
144000
3000
ヒンドゥーがイスラム教徒を殺しているよ 気をつけて」
02:42
I'm like, "Dude, I'm Hindu."
59
147000
2000
「あの俺ヒンドゥーだし」と言うと
02:44
(Laughter)
60
149000
1000
(笑)
02:45
He's like, "Huh!"
61
150000
3000
その子は目を丸くして驚いていました
02:48
You know, my work is inspired
62
153000
3000
私の作品はそういった出来事から
02:51
by events such as this.
63
156000
2000
発想を得ています
02:53
Even in my gallery shows,
64
158000
2000
展覧会をするときにも
02:55
I try and revisit historic events
65
160000
2000
バーブリー・マスジドのような
02:57
like Babri Masjid,
66
162000
2000
歴史的事件を再訪し
02:59
distill only its emotional residue
67
164000
2000
感情的な沈殿物をすくい出し
03:01
and image my own life.
68
166000
2000
自分の人生を描き出すのです
03:03
Imagine history being taught differently.
69
168000
2000
歴史を違った教え方をしたい
03:05
Remember that children's book
70
170000
1000
さっきの本で
03:06
where you shake and the sexuality of the parents change?
71
171000
3000
揺すぶったら親の性が変わりましたけど
03:09
I have another idea.
72
174000
1000
別なアイデアがあります
03:10
It's a children's book about Indian independence --
73
175000
3000
インド独立についての子どもの本で
03:13
very patriotic.
74
178000
2000
とても愛国的な話です
03:15
But when you shake it, you get Pakistan's perspective.
75
180000
2000
でも ひと揺すりするとパキスタンの観点になり
03:17
Shake it again, and you get the British perspective.
76
182000
3000
またひと揺すりするとイギリスの観点になるのです
03:20
(Applause)
77
185000
5000
(拍手)
03:25
You have to separate fact from bias, right.
78
190000
2000
偏見から事実を切り離す必要があります
03:27
Even my books on children
79
192000
2000
私の子ども向けの本にも
03:29
have cute, fuzzy animals.
80
194000
2000
可愛らしい動物は出てきますが
03:31
But they're playing geopolitics.
81
196000
2000
それは地政学を扱っているのです
03:33
They're playing out Israel-Palestine,
82
198000
2000
イスラエルとパレスチナや
03:35
India-Pakistan.
83
200000
2000
インドとパキスタンを表していて
03:37
You know, I'm making a very important argument.
84
202000
2000
とても大事な主張をしています
03:39
And my argument [is]
85
204000
2000
私の主張は
03:41
that the only way for us to teach creativity
86
206000
4000
出来るだけ早い時期から 子どもに異なる観点を教えるのが
03:45
is by teaching children perspectives
87
210000
2000
創造性を育てる
03:47
at the earliest stage.
88
212000
2000
唯一の方法だということです
03:49
After all, children's books are manuals on parenting,
89
214000
2000
子どもの本は子育てのマニュアルですから
03:51
so you better give them children's books that teach them perspectives.
90
216000
3000
子どもには観点を教える本を与えることです
03:54
And conversely,
91
219000
2000
逆に言うと
03:56
only when you teach perspectives
92
221000
2000
観点を教えたときにはじめて
03:58
will a child be able to imagine
93
223000
2000
子どもは想像力を働かせ
04:00
and put themselves in the shoes
94
225000
2000
自分と違った人の立場になって
04:02
of someone who is different from them.
95
227000
2000
考えられるようになるのです
04:04
I'm making an argument that art and creativity
96
229000
2000
アートと創造性は
04:06
are very essential tools in empathy.
97
231000
3000
共感のためのとても大切な道具だと言いたいです
04:09
You know, I can't promise my child
98
234000
2000
子どもに偏見のない人生を
04:11
a life without bias --
99
236000
2000
約束することはできません
04:13
we're all biased --
100
238000
2000
私たちはみんな偏見を持っていますから
04:15
but I promise to bias my child with multiple perspectives.
101
240000
3000
でも複数の観点がある偏見を持つことはできるのです
04:18
Thank you very much.
102
243000
2000
どうもありがとうございました
04:20
(Applause)
103
245000

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Raghava KK - ArtistRaghava KK's paintings and drawings use cartoonish shapes and colors to examine the body, society, our world.
Why you should listen
Raghava KK began his career in art as a newspaper cartoonist, and the cartoonist’s bold line -- and dead-on eye for truth -- still powers his art. His work spans painting, sculpture, installation, film and iPad art, always linked by his challenging opinions on identity, conformity, gender, celebrity, ceremony. (He even views his lavish Indian wedding as a piece of performance art.)
His early work as a painter made a complete break with his cartoon career -- he painted watercolors on canvas using only his hands and feet. Since then, his work has grown to knit together aesthetics from both worlds, as collage and complication play against flat color and precise lines. He shows in galleries and performance spaces around the world and often collaborates with other artists, most recently with musicians Paul Simon and Erykah Badu. In 2011, he launched his children's iPad book, Pop-it, shaking up the concept of an ideal family. He is currently working on a project that promises to shake up everything! From news to education.
