for me, "avant garde" spells "spirit" .... or the guts to be different or misunderstood .....or a howl!
完全同意!!!! 當人類文明發展到今天...henry miller 說人類將越來越聰明和精確..."東海西海,心理攸同,南學北學,道術未裂"(錢鍾書)...
而領悟得早的人也會更加快樂堅強地行動生活著...我非常欣賞Andy Whole說的一句話: "In the future everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes. "...
所以"avant garde" :
你的金字塔
一點不稀奇
隻是舊景
披上了新裝
帝王的意旨
全是撒謊
對我來說也是: "avant garde" spells "spirit" .... or the guts to be different or misunderstood .....or a howl!

yes, "avant garde" is foremost a local/reigional/cultural result of artistic protest ....
the western artists/poets we know are still very limited ... we like them because we have not seen anything of that sort before .....
in the art world, imitation/influence is a very common element when we "learn/copy" from others ....
for me, "avant garde" spells "spirit" .... or the guts to be different or misunderstood .....or a howl!

About this body of flesh
There is no mystery when
The soul finally takes its flight
當我們將人體的神秘感除去,從藝術上來講,中國“先鋒”:A personal diary..."先鋒"在哪裏? 時間最能檢驗藝術,藝術裏有永恒的BEAUTY,也有功能性的"BEAUTY"...這些"先鋒"有某種"先鋒"的功能...但其實並不新鮮...視覺上藝術上還是對待生命也吧藝術也吧的看法上,在國內,可能是新鮮的??...

我很同意:...as a matter of fact, it is not meant to be "understood" ....
"avant garde" has a very different function in art history ....
但我不會將中國“先鋒”和picasso,cummings相提並論,因為他們的作品無論從視覺還是從藝術造詣上都並不"先鋒"..."內容"是不可能"先鋒"的...所以是帶帽子的"中國"先鋒""... 我想"中國"先鋒"" has a very different function in 中國 art history ....
