SAS Puxi welcomed its first visiting artist of the year, mixed media artist Mr. Hanoch Piven. Known for his quirky celebrity caricatures assembled with common everyday objects and scraps of materials, Mr. Piven spent a week working with pre-k, kindergarten and elementary classes to create a series of self-portraits put together with materials like buttons, bottle caps and costume jewelry.
上海美國(guó)學(xué)校浦西校區(qū)迎來(lái)了今年的第一位訪問(wèn)藝術(shù)家——混合媒體藝術(shù)家Hanoch Piven先生。Piven先生擅長(zhǎng)使用常見(jiàn)的日常用品和材料創(chuàng)作古怪的名人漫畫(huà)。他在上海美國(guó)學(xué)校浦西校區(qū)訪問(wèn)一周的時(shí)間里,與學(xué)前班、幼兒班以及小學(xué)部的學(xué)生一起使用紐扣、瓶蓋、人造珠寶等材料創(chuàng)作一系列自畫(huà)像。
“The purpose was to help the older kids explore who they were, the meaning of different objects, and using those meaning to say something about themselves,” said Mr. Piven. As elementary students sorted through the materials they wanted to work with, they spent a lot of time reflecting on themselves and on making decisions. “There was a lot of introspection in there.”
Piven先生表示:“這樣做的目的是幫助年齡稍微大一些的孩子探索他們是誰(shuí),了解不同物品的含義,運(yùn)用這些含義進(jìn)行自我表達(dá)。”在挑選材料的過(guò)程中,小學(xué)部的學(xué)生花了很多時(shí)間進(jìn)行自我反省并做出決定。“這一過(guò)程涉及很多內(nèi)省?!?/p>
The younger students, on the other hand, learnt to understand that art allows flexibility. “We created basic facial expressions out of objects – not gluing them, just moving them around – which helped them understand that there is no one way of doing something,” Mr. Piven explained. “Just by being able to move things around helped them understand the diversity of possibilities and the flexibility of moving from a happy face, to a sad face, to an angry face.”
另一方面,年齡稍微小一些的學(xué)生了解到了藝術(shù)具有靈活性。Piven先生解釋道:“我們使用物品創(chuàng)作基本的面部表情——不是將物品粘在一起,而是將物品自由移動(dòng)——這讓他們了解到,創(chuàng)作的方式不止一種。通過(guò)對(duì)物品進(jìn)行自由移動(dòng),他們了解到了創(chuàng)作的各種可能,讓面部表情從快樂(lè)變成悲傷,從悲傷變成憤怒?!?/p>
It’s an interesting, and to Mr. Piven, an important way of creating. “Moving objects is another way of drawing. We find shapes instead of create shapes,” he said. “Children can do it easily and it helps solve the issue of the technique barrier. At a certain point, some kids might start to feel like they cannot draw well enough. They stop because they feel that they cannot create something realistic. But with objects, suddenly anybody can create art.”
這是一種非常有趣的創(chuàng)作方式。對(duì)于Piven先生來(lái)說(shuō),這還是一種非常重要的創(chuàng)作方式。他表示:“對(duì)物品進(jìn)行移動(dòng)是另外一種繪畫(huà)方式。我們是去尋找形狀,而不是去創(chuàng)作形狀。這對(duì)于孩子們來(lái)說(shuō)非常容易,有助于解決技術(shù)壁壘問(wèn)題。到了一定時(shí)候,一些孩子可能開(kāi)始覺(jué)得自己畫(huà)得不夠好。于是他們不再繪畫(huà),因?yàn)樗麄冇X(jué)得自己無(wú)法創(chuàng)作出逼真的東西。通過(guò)對(duì)物品進(jìn)行移動(dòng),每個(gè)人都能夠創(chuàng)作藝術(shù)?!?/p>
Mr. Piven likens this process as enlightening children to the fact that there is no IKEA manual to creativity. “To me, art allows you to be in a space of experimentation, of trying things and failing but not feeling too bad about it. It’s not the real world, it’s a protected space that allows you to practice for reality – all the failures and problems, the trial and error, the coincidences and happy accidents – you find them and you explore them, which is useful to young children as they move from the art space to the real space of life.”
Piven先生認(rèn)為這一過(guò)程能夠啟發(fā)孩子們,讓孩子們意識(shí)到,創(chuàng)作沒(méi)有什么指導(dǎo)手冊(cè)?!皩?duì)于我來(lái)說(shuō),藝術(shù)能夠讓人們進(jìn)入一個(gè)試驗(yàn)空間,不斷嘗試,不斷失敗,但不至于感到氣餒。這不是現(xiàn)實(shí)世界。這是一個(gè)受到保護(hù)的空間,讓人們能夠?yàn)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)做好準(zhǔn)備——失敗和問(wèn)題、反復(fù)試驗(yàn)、巧合和意外——不斷尋找,不斷探索。在從藝術(shù)空間走向現(xiàn)實(shí)生活的過(guò)程中,這對(duì)于孩子們來(lái)說(shuō)非常有用?!?/p>
