关于摄影合成作品《憧憬制造》新连环画的文字简说

这是一组建立在“立足本土,走向世界,与国际接轨,吸引外资”的当代中国城市背景下(以中国对外开放的窗口城市上海具有代表性新建筑景观作为背景)的新形象人物连环画照。他们具有与这个背景相匹配的关联性效果,如同红花需要绿叶配——新城市需要新形象,新形象需要新理想。有道是:全民共唱一台戏。 以具有代表性的当代中国城市家庭作为表现的视角,以肥皂剧的形象造型与作秀式的对话处理,既能形象地凸现出处于这种现实背景下的人们,在面对国际新格局时所显露出的某种微妙的心态,又能充分地反映出这个充满策略与表演的现实图景。而人物群像的金发处理,则是对这个现实环境的逻辑性反映。

每幅作品尺寸2米x1.2米,共5幅。摄影与电脑合成感光成像。 作品对话内容如下:

Father: Look, our international prospects for the new centruy are bright! Mother: We must show off our skill.
Grandmother: It must be tiem to struggle.
Grandfather: In the new century we must grasp after opportunity!
Son: But the road is windy.
Son: The new century after all belongs to our generation, the burden is heavy!
Grandfather: Back then, when I was abount your age, I was already a red soldier.
Mother: Talk about your ecperiences, inflate him.
Father: Certainly there are obstacles on the road to the new century. But Grandfather, father, didn’t they all come through turmoil to get here? Son, do not lose heart!
Grandmother: All these years, your grandmother has been thinking og struggle.
作品第一幅对话:爸爸:“看,新世纪的国际前途是光明的!” 妈妈:“得好好露一手。” 奶奶:“该是搏一搏的时候了。” 爷爷:“在新世纪一定要好好把握时机啊!” 儿子:“可是道路是曲折的。” 作品第二幅对话:儿子:“新世纪毕竟是我们这一代的世纪,负担重啊!” 爷爷:“想当年,我象你那么大的时候就已经是红小鬼了。” 妈妈:“谈谈你的经验,给他打打气。” 爸爸:“在迈向新世纪的征途上,确实有险阻。但你爷爷,你老爸不 都是在艰难跋涉的征途中过来的吗?小虎,你可不能泄气啊!” 奶奶:“你奶奶这把年纪了,都想着要搏一搏。”
   
Son: Your instruction has touched me deeply. Although the road is windy, I must only establish and maintain a correct philosophy, and in terms of strategy scoff at my enemy, while in terms of tactics respect my enemy, and I will have to worry abount not being able to march in synch with the new century, or not connection with the international. Son: I remember Mao said “ the world is yours, and also ours, but in the end it is still yours…” He was right, we young people are like the morning sun of 8 or 9 a.m.” Father: Very good, I have been waiting for you to speek these words.
Mother: Hope is on your shoulders, we are all depending on you.
Grandfather: There will be people to carry on internatonal relations in the new century.
Grandmother: Good work..
作品第三幅对话:儿子:“你们的教导深深地感染了我,是的,道路虽然曲折,但是只 要树立起积极的正确的人生观,在战略上藐视敌人,在战术上 重视敌人,何愁不能跟上新世纪的步伐,与国际接轨呢?” 爸爸:“这小子虽然没有实战经验,却是前途无量。” 妈妈:“比他老爸悟性足。” 爷爷:“象我家的秉性,是棵好苗子啊!” 奶奶:“这下我就放心了。” 作品第四幅对话:儿子:“记得毛爷爷说过‘世界是你们的,也是我们的,但是归根结 底还是你们的……’是啊,我们年轻人就象早晨八九点钟的太 阳……” 爸爸:“好样的,我就等你这句话。” 妈妈:“希望就寄托在你身上了,我们全都靠你喽。” 爷爷:“在新世纪的国际舞台上后继有人了。” 奶奶:“好好干。”
   
 
Son: Thank you for your praise, only when we stand on the shoulders of previous generations can we see far!
Grandfather: You are modest like your grandfather.
Mother: I so envy you; how I’d love to go ahead with you.
Father: I am no longer alone.
Grandmother: A good kid.
 
作品第五幅对话:儿子:“谢谢你们的夸奖,我们只是踏在前辈的肩膀上才能看的远多 多鼓励呀!” 爷爷:“谦虚也象你爷爷。” 妈妈:“真羡慕你,好想跟着你去闯闯。” 爸爸:“我不再孤单了。” 奶奶:“好一个将门虎子。” (完)
