你的灵感从哪儿来?
每位艺术家都希望通过创作表达自己的
理念。 而这些理念从何而来? 是谁, 抑或是
什么启发了他们? 下面, 我们进一步发掘了
三位大不相同的艺术家成功背后的因素。
弗洛伦泰因·霍夫曼, 视觉艺术家
弗洛伦泰因·霍夫曼是一位荷兰艺术家,
他创作的大型雕塑在世界各地进行展出。 他
的孩子们的玩具是他的一个灵感来源。 霍夫
曼从这些玩具身上得到启发, 从而创作出动
物形状的雕塑, 比如著名的 “大黄鸭”。 他
最近的新作是一条巨大的 “浮鱼”, 位于风
景宜人的乌镇西栅景区内。
霍夫曼表示, “浮鱼” 的灵感源自世代
相传的中国民间故事。 他对 “鲤鱼跃龙门”
的古老故事尤其感兴趣。 当他游览乌镇, 看
到当地居民的生活时, 这个故事立马生动地
浮现于他的脑海中。
“我住在镇上期间, 当我散步的时候, 看
到人们在喂鱼。 墙上还有鱼形的浮雕。” 这些
画面让霍夫曼创作 “浮鱼” 的念头产生了。
谭盾, 作曲家
“音乐的世界没有边界。” 中国作曲家谭
盾如是说。 这位著名的作曲家曾为电影 《卧
虎藏龙》 配乐, 并为
2008
年北京奥运会创
作音乐。
欣赏谭盾的音乐, 就是在感受中国音乐
传统和西方影响的交融。 从他的第一部歌剧
《九歌》 开始, 谭盾一直在用中国音乐和来
自世界各地的乐音讲述故事。 他曾说过, 中
国音乐要承载人文精神的 “共同理念”, 才
能被世界认可。
杨丽萍, 舞蹈家
杨丽萍热爱舞蹈。
1986
年, 她凭借 《雀
之灵》 在全国舞蹈大赛上折桂。 此后, 她成
了家喻户晓的 “孔雀公主”。 她许多著名舞
蹈作品的灵感都来源于她在云南西双版纳度
过的一段时光。
杨丽萍说: “我很感激在西双版纳的那
些年, 它让我有机会深入到各个民族的生活
里面……我们的少数民族, 特别是傣族人
民, 特别喜爱孔雀。 他们认为孔雀展现了自
然之美 。 我特别喜欢傣族人的舞蹈风格 ,
这给了我很多灵感。 我的舞蹈源自他们的传
统信仰, 同时也致力于展现傣族女性的美。”
