關于art的英語對話篇二
Todd: Shona, do you consider yourself an artist?
托德:夏娜,你認為自己是藝術(shù)家嗎?
Shona: No, actually, I wouldn't use that word. I don't like when people use that word cause likeartist to me is like someone who is like famous for like creating something like, there's likebeing a creator or a designer and there's being like an artist, and an artist like is someonewho's celebrated for what they do, so I'm not really celebrated for what I do but I do like tosort of like make things, so I like to paint and I like to draw and I like to like create things anddesign things.
夏娜:不,我不會用這個詞形容自己。我不喜歡人們用這個詞形容我,因為我認為藝術(shù)家是以創(chuàng)造而聞名的人,他們是創(chuàng)造者,是設計師,藝術(shù)家會因為他們做的事情受到贊美,我并沒有因為我所做的事情而受到稱贊,不過我的確喜歡創(chuàng)作東西,我喜歡畫畫,喜歡創(chuàng)作,也喜歡設計。
Todd: So what kind of things do you like to paint?
托德:你喜歡畫什么?
Shona: OK, well the kind of paintings I do are like based on like three things I've noticed overthis time that I've been doing it. There're based on color. Color is like so important to me. Ilike really bright colors. I like colors that kind of clash together that might not go. Also, I likeshapes. Shape is like the most important thing to me. I like the shapes of sea horses, ofbutterflies, of like flowers, of natural things, of like the human form. Shape is like the biggestdeal to me. I also like repetition in what I do, so I kind of repeat the same shape or like I'llrepeat like part of a shape, like it will appear in many different parts of a painting that I'll do, sothese are like the most important things, and they're kind of like, I suppose can end of a kind ofbit sort of psychedelic or a bit crazy like, but like if you kind of look at them closely you'll seewhat they're made up of.
夏娜:就我一直在畫的東西來看,我的畫有三個基礎。我的畫首先很注意顏色。顏色對我來說特別重要。我喜歡鮮艷的顏色。我喜歡那種可能并不搭配的撞色。另外,我還喜歡形狀。對我來說形狀是最重要的。我喜歡海馬、花和自然事物的形狀和人形。對我來說形狀是最重要的。我還喜歡在作品中進行重復,我會重復使用同一個形狀,重復使用一個形狀,同一個形狀可能會出現(xiàn)在一幅作品的各個部分,所以這些對我來說很重要,這可能會產(chǎn)生迷幻效果或有點瘋狂,不過如果你近距離看我的作品,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)它們是由什么組成的。
Todd: That's pretty interesting. So, do you like then, let's say, you know, architecture thatuses patterns and things like that or do you just like painting as a medium on a piece ofcanvas.
托德:這太有意思了。那你是喜歡有圖形的建筑還是喜歡在畫布上的畫?
Shona: Yeah, I like kind of all forms of art really. I like architecture. I like.. what I like to see islike where there's like an old building right next to a new one, like and you can see like maybe ifthe new one's slightly in front of the old one. You can see like the differences overlapping. Ilike things that overlap. It sounds a bit weird but.
夏娜:我喜歡所有的藝術(shù)形式。我喜歡建筑。我喜歡看那種在新建筑旁邊的舊建筑,如果新建筑的位置在舊建筑的前面一點,那可以看到重疊的差異。我喜歡這種交疊。不過聽起來可能有些奇怪。
Todd: You like layers.
托德:你喜歡圖層。
Shona: Yeah, I like layers. Exactly. I like collages as well, although I don't do them myself. Ifind it too difficult to actually do them. I like appreciate a collage because I like the fact thatit's built up. It's like layered. It's more interesting to look at.
夏娜:對,我喜歡圖層。我也喜歡拼貼畫,不過我自己沒有做。我覺得做拼貼畫太難了。我喜歡觀賞拉貼畫,因為我喜歡那種組合起來的感覺。我喜歡層次感。看上去非常有趣。
Todd: One thing that I think is really amazing is that, cause I do the web stuff, I do the webdesign, and I'm a novice. Like yourself, I'm not really an artist but I'm always amazed howcomputers can't replicate the same colors of nature.
托德:我覺得最不可思議的一件事是……因為我在做網(wǎng)站,我做網(wǎng)站設計,我是個新手。和你一樣,我也不是藝術(shù)家,不過我經(jīng)常會對計算機不能復制出大自然的顏色感到驚訝。
Shona: Yeah, exactly.
夏娜:對,沒錯。
Todd: You'll see certain browns or purples or blues and you just can't get it on a computer.
托德:你可能會在自然中看到某種棕色、紫色或是藍色,可是你在電腦里找不到這些顏色。
Shona: Exactly. I know. It's like, it's difficult, like, cause nature is like so much more beautifulthan anything anyone can ever create, you know, so sometimes it's kind of frustrating,especially like if I'm just drawing like something in nature, like a scene. Like there's no wayit's going to be as beautiful as what I can see with my own eyes in front of me, and it can be abit frustrating sometimes, like the same with trying to find colors that match nature.
夏娜:沒錯,是這樣。其實這很難,因為自然界比人們能創(chuàng)造出來的任何東西都要精彩,所以有時這很令人沮喪,尤其是在我想畫出自然界的風景的時候。因為我沒有辦法將我眼睛看到的風景呈現(xiàn)出來,所以這會令我有些沮喪,就像你找不到和自然界相配的顏色一樣。
Todd: It's pretty hard, although it does seem that a really good artist on canvas can get prettyclose with the colors.
托德:這是很難,不過優(yōu)秀的藝術(shù)家可以創(chuàng)造出相似的顏色。
Shona: Yeah, they can get close. You have to be really good at you're mixing. You see that'sone of the like skills involved with painting. You've got to be able to like mix paints really well.
夏娜:對,他們會創(chuàng)造出相似的顏色。這要很擅長調(diào)色才可以。這是繪畫的其中一個技巧。你要能調(diào)色。
Todd: And can you mix paints really well?
托德:那你擅長調(diào)色嗎?
Shona: I'm getting there.
夏娜:我正在努力。
關于art的英語對話篇三
Todd: Shona, do you have any talents or interests like art or music or cooking?
托德:夏娜,你有什么才藝嗎,或者說你有什么興趣愛好?比如藝術(shù)、音樂或是烹飪之類的?
Shona: Yeah. Actually, I really, really enjoy art. I like to sort of study different artists and lookat art from the past, but I also paint myself so I like to go to art galleries and exhibitions andget inspiration for my own work.
夏娜:有。我非常非常喜歡藝術(shù)。我喜歡研究藝術(shù)家和過去的藝術(shù),我自己也會畫畫,所以我喜歡參觀美術(shù)館和展覽,為我自己的創(chuàng)作獲取靈感。
Todd: That is cool. So, speaking of artists, what are three artists that you really like?
托德:這太酷了。談到藝術(shù)家,你最喜歡的三位藝術(shù)家是誰?
Shona: OK, well, my first all-time, absolute favorite artist is a guy call Fred Tomaselli. He's thisAmerican guy, and he's only been painting now, or making art for like maybe like eight years orsomething. He's quite new, but his paintings are like so amazing. He will like build up animage, like over layers. OK, so he'll have ten layers built on a canvas. He'll have layers of redin, but sandwiched in between them, he will like create an image, like a collage if you likemade of different things, so he will include like dried flowers, like flowers cut out frommagazines. He will use images of the human body taken from like magazines or whatever. Wewill also use like pills, like pharmaceutical drugs and stuff, like sort of all smashed up and he'lluse them and he'll create these amazing like 3-D images, like over these like layers that are allbuilt up so you're standing in front of it, and they're big. They're like seven-foot by four-footand it's just amazing. It's so like 3-D and it makes such an impact. The images themselves willbe of things like maybe birds, maybe like he's done human images like Adam and Eve, like inthe Garden of Eden, and he's done things like this drummer cause he's like really influenced bylike music and American Punk music, so he's got like a drummer with like six hands like allgoing to different drums and they're just the most amazing thing you've ever saw in your life,so he's like my absolute favorite artist, and I also really like.... I like Edvard Munch who is aNorwegian artist and he does like... and he's like incredibly famous, and he does like kind of likeskewed images of like... his most famous is called "The Scream" and it's like a person with likehis screaming obviously. There's a bridge in the background. It's all very colorful.
夏娜:我一直以來最喜歡的藝術(shù)家是弗雷德·托馬塞利。他是名美國藝術(shù)家,到目前為止,他從事藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作的時間只有八年左右。他在藝術(shù)界算是新人,不過他的畫作非常棒。他擅于在圖層上構(gòu)建圖形。他可能會在畫布上構(gòu)建十個圖層。他會構(gòu)建紅色的圖層,然后在圖層之間創(chuàng)造圖像,用不同事物組成拼貼畫,他的畫里有干花和用雜志剪成的花朵。他會使用從雜志上找來的人體圖像。還有碾碎的藥片、藥品之類的東西,他會在畫作中使用這些東西,創(chuàng)建出令人驚奇的3D圖像,他的作品都是大型作品,你可以站在作品前面欣賞那些構(gòu)建出來的圖層。他的作品有七英尺高四英尺寬,非常不可思議。那些作品非常像3D圖像,令人印象深刻。他的作品包括鳥類和人類圖像,他畫過伊甸園的亞當和夏娃,還畫過鼓手,因為他受音樂尤其是美國朋克音樂的影響很深,所以他畫過一個有六只手而且每只手都拿著不同鼓的鼓手,那可能是你這一生中看過的最震撼的作品,他絕對是我最喜歡的藝術(shù)家,我還喜歡挪威藝術(shù)家愛德華·蒙克,他非常出名,他喜歡扭曲的圖像,他最著名的作品是《吶喊》,畫的是一個在吶喊的人。那幅畫的背景里有座橋,色彩非常豐富。
Todd: Right. That's the one that was stolen recently, wasn't it?
托德:好。你說的是最近被偷的那部作品吧?
Shona: Yeah, it was. It was stolen. Yeah.
夏娜:對,的確是,那部作品被盜了。
Todd: Did they get it back?
托德:他們找回來了嗎?
Shona: They did. They got it back. They found out who done it, so it's back where it belongsin the museum. Yeah.
夏娜:他們找回來了。他們找到了盜賊,所以現(xiàn)在那幅畫又回到了博物館。
Todd: Was the painting damaged?
托德:那作品有受到損壞嗎?
Shona: I don't think it was, no. It was a professional, like it was stolen by someoneprofessional who was like hoping to sell it on the black market, so it wasn't that damaged.
夏娜:我想沒有損壞。盜走這幅畫的人非常專業(yè),小偷的目的是在黑市把這幅畫賣掉,所以畫作并沒有受損。
Todd: Yeah, you would think it would be hard to sell.
托德:那很難賣掉。
Shona: I know, exactly but then people would know it was stolen but they'd want it so badlythey'd pay the price for it.
夏娜:對,因為人們都知道那是偷來的,不過如果有人非常想要這幅畫,那他們還是會買下來的。
Todd: That is an amazing painting. So, anybody else?
托德:這幅畫非常不可思議。你喜歡的藝術(shù)家還有誰?
Shona: Yeah, I've got like... there's loads of artists I love. There's also this guy called StuartDavis who is another American, and he was very famous kind of in the 1950's so he done kindof like commercial like paintings, drawings for different things like Lucky Strike is one of hisfamous ones, where he's like done a commercial for the cigarettes, Lucky Strike. He uses likevery bold colors. It's kind of like a transfer over from the Pop Art like era and he uses lots ofdifferent images like built on top of one another, like it's kind of chaotic to look at but that'sthe kind of art I like because you can like dissect it and there's lots of different things there tolook at which I think is the most fun thing about different art.
夏娜:我喜歡的藝術(shù)家有很多。我還喜歡另一名美國藝術(shù)家斯圖爾特·戴維斯,他在上世紀50年代非常出名,他主要從事商業(yè)油畫,他最著名的作品之一是《好彩香煙》,是為好彩香煙設計的廣告。他用色大膽,他的畫作就像是波普藝術(shù)時代的轉(zhuǎn)移,他會在一個圖像上疊加不同的圖像,看起來有些混亂,不過我喜歡那種藝術(shù)形式,因為可以對畫作進行剖析,在看這種作品時有不同的圖像需要關注,我認為這是不同藝術(shù)形式中最有趣的部分。
