中文简介:
Frank Kunert的作品就像生活本身一样耐人寻味。艺术家不断质疑人类的状况,将他对世界的解释转化为细致的微缩模型,并以照片的形式捕捉它们。Kunert的作品包含了对平衡工作和生活的微妙任务的智慧观察,或对日常生活的异想天开。继他图文并茂的《颠倒世界》、《仙境》和《生活方式》之后,《及时行乐》揭示了我们生存的矛盾——欣喜和即将到来的痛苦之间的矛盾。喜剧和悲剧在这位模型制作者和摄影师的作品中紧密交织在一起。Kunert带领我们进入一个看似超现实但又很熟悉的平行宇宙。
英文简介:
Frank Kunert's works are as ambiguous as life itself. Constantly questioning the human condition, the artist translates his interpretations of the world into meticulous miniature models and captures them photographically. Kunert's constructions contain intelligent observations about the delicate task of balancing work and life, or the whimsicality of the everyday. Following his illustrated volumes Topsy-Turvy World, Wonderland, and Lifestyle, Carpe Diem reveals the contradictions of our existence―between euphoria and impending misery. Comedy and tragedy are closely intertwined in the work of model maker and photographer: Kunert leads us into a parallel universe that seems surreal yet strangely familiar.
