- Paul Cézanne(保羅.塞尚) is one of the greatest artists of all time.
- One could say that good art speaks in a language we know(好的藝術淺顯易懂): we get the message and then move on.
- Great art seems to speak in a foreign language we imagine we’ll get with long enough immersion.(偉大的藝術就像是用一種外語來表達的,我們只要沉浸得夠久,就能領悟到)
- However, there's Cézanne, who is like the sound of water dripping or the clank of a train. It's just there to be known, full of meaning and pleasure, somehow, but without a hope of translation. →(比諭塞尚的作品富含深意但卻無法被翻譯)
- With most of Cézanne's rivals, however superb(無論多出色), there are certain banalities(平庸) we utter that also happen to be true(我們就算這麼說也不為過):
- Michelangelo(米開朗基羅) is about cosmic(宇宙) drama and heroic bodies; Monet(莫納) is about light and brushwork and modern French life.
- With Cézanne, we don't have the backup of truisms. Or rather, the ones that do get trotted out(老生常談) are all simply wrong(完全錯誤). →(指出大部份人對塞尚的認識是全然錯誤的)
- "Cézanne reduces the world to a few geometric solids"—ludicrous(荒謬) to anyone who really looks at his stew of shapes. →(舉例一)
- "Cézanne simply stared(凝視) harder at the world than other artists"—absurd(荒謬) to anyone who recognizes how little looking at a Cézanne apple is like looking at a real one. →(舉例二)
- "Cézanne is only about composition(構圖) and color"—impossible, given how much he labors(勞力的付出) over getting his card players(《玩牌的人》,塞尚的一個畫作) right as humans. →(舉例三)
- There are other great artists who will puzzle us forever—James Joyce(喬伊斯), Pablo Picasso(畢卡索), Arnold Schoenberg(荀白克)—but that puzzlement seems to come from their willful(任性的) complexity.
- Whereas it seems as though Cézanne wants to keep things simple but then can't.
- Tapping(輕拍) his head, he once said, "Painting . . . it's inside here."
- The glory of his art is that, no matter how hard we try, we can never quite see it(看見它的全貌).
