－奈良美智 偏好獨自創作，跨界廣受流行時尚、文學與大眾文化喜愛的奈良美 智。對於他而言藝術啟蒙於音樂，但旅行可說是告別一段生命里程的重 要儀式；旅行也讓奈良美智找到和世界溝通的途徑，驅動他去探索人生 的未知。遊走於學院知性研究與旅行的感性啟發，求學期間，兩度到歐 洲旅行。而第二次的旅行參觀完 1987 年卡塞爾文件大展之後，心中有 了決定，結束七年名古屋的學習，隔年前往德國留學。

His works bring about the feeling of loneliness and warmth in their simplistic compositions. The juxtaposition of child-like form and rebelliousness is intriguing in his works. With a poetic, rebellious and gentle personality, Nara loves creating his artwork whilst traveling when his memories of childhood were vivid, thereby incorporating his experience in his works.

"All of my works are reflections of myself. They are conversations with myself", Yoshitomo Nara.

As a lone artist, Yoshitomo Nara is well-acclaimed among the fashion, literary and pop culture scenes. He believes art is inspired by music while traveling constitutes a means to an end in a stage of life. Travel is a bridge of communication between the artist and the world. It leads him to explore unknowns in life. After two travels in Europe, the second time being a visit to documenta 8 in Kassel in 1987, Nara was faced with the empirical theories at school and the romantic discoveries in travels. Since then, he was determined to end his seven years of education in Nagoya and opted for German education.

Symbolistic Depiction: Children with Huge Heads Loneliness is prevalent among travelers away from home. This large-scale representative work, Cup Kids, was completed in 1995, a significant year of Nara's career. That year was the turning point of his artistic career as his works were brought from Germany to SCAI The Bathhouse Gallery in Tokyo for his first solo exhibition "In the Deepest Puddle". It was also the time when his first gigantic dog sculpture received positive feedback from the art scene. Since then, similar subjects of glass fiber were

as it was considered as a once in a lifetime experience by the artist. Tell Me Why (A to Z) was a spontaneous graffiti at the door of a washroom in a local bar. It was created in 2006, the occasion where Nara revisited his childhood town. As "A to Z" reconnects with the public, the juxtaposition of child-like and rebellious girl associates with a fight against negativity of the world, hence this constitutes to the form of art in his later stage of the career.

Art of Ponder: Despair and Hope of Post-311 "No one truly understands life, one has to feel it", Yoshitomo Nara On 11th March 2011, Japan was hit severely by an earthquake. The severity shook the world. In the aftermath of this hazard, Nara helped with the settlement, yet the shock was so immense that he couldn't produce any works for half a year. Along with Nobuyoshi Araki, he explored photography and slowly recovered through the touch of clay.

In contrast with the smooth sculptures made with glass fiber, the clay that Nara used since 2011 is austere and rough in texture. Such austere

Regardless of the media, Nara's works are unique in their own way and become more refined towards his mature stage. Knife Behind Back fetched NT$770 million (HK$195 million) in 2019, breaking the artist's record at auction. Berlin Barack, Room 1 sold for NT$470 million (HK$120 million) in 2021, showing the long-lasting fame of the artist around the globe. Being well-loved by collectors, Nara's works also influence the style of the younger generation of artists. As a rebellious artist towards boundaries of life, Yoshitomo Nara is a child-like artist who lives to document his life experiences into intriguing works of art. ▲

所畏懼。 2006 年，馬卡龍年 25 歲，決定開始專心走向藝術家之路。成為職 業藝術家，不同於過去偶而地畫畫，他沒有回頭路只能拼命向前。此時 他的風格轉趨成熟。他可說是一位孜孜不倦、作畫速度很快的藝術家， 即使媒材繁多，但是完成一幅畫的時間不會超過一週，創作必須是自發 性的，像騎自行車的紀律，表現在作品之中。騎自行車時每天可騎上兩 百公里，身體的訓練能幫助他思考。他將運動的熱情轉移到繪畫上，完 美地融合一起。紀律讓他幾乎像僧侶一般，早上六點起床，前往馬德里 的拉斯羅薩斯（Las Rozas）小鎮的工作室，工作前先閱讀，然後畫畫。 他喜歡在早上光線好的時候開始畫，他坦言無法等到下午才做，每件創 作都是全心全力完成，真誠感動人心。

Despite a lack of formal training, Macarrón grew up in a family of art connoisseurs that cultivated him with the legacy of Spanish art culture and European modernism. At age almost 30, Macarrón won the 2010 BMW Painting Award in Spain. At age 40, Macarrón held his first museum exhibition titled Quince at the Contemporary Art Center of Malga in March 2021. Having been in the art industry for most of his life, Macarrón has finally set off on a successful art career around age 40.

In April 2021, he launched Afternoon Delight at the newly established CVG Foundation in Beijing, China. That was the first time Macarrón debuted his exhibition at an art institution in Asia.

portraits for European royalty. Dating back even further, Macarrón's great grandfather was an art gallery owner to a conservator and sculptor workshop. Macarrón demonstrated art talents at a young age when he visited museums and exhibitions with his parents. He recalls a family trip to Paris at age 4, where he became exposed to Pablo Picasso's works and has since embarked on a whole new journey.

The 4-year-old Macarrón visited the Picasso Museum in 1985, the year of its inauguration. The young Macarrón could sit or lay down in the exhibition room for the entire morning, connecting with the art master with sketchbooks and crayons in his hands. Since then, Macarrón has started sketching with a pencil on A4 or quarto size papers. The fascination by Picasso's art has planted a seed deep inside his heart. By age 7, Macarrón had drawn colorful sketches of animals or characters from imaginary worlds.

Lio Malca, the founder of Fundación La Nave Salinas explained his views on Macarrón's works, "I

was excited about Rafa's work from the beginning. His images seemed to me to be born from the universe of constellations of Joan Miró and the optimistic landscapes of Manuel H. Mompó. I knew that Rafa was heir to an important tradition of Spanish painting that I personally admire, and I have the firm intuition that he will do a lot of justice to his artistic relay. I imagined very quickly the work of Rafa among the pine trees and the Mediterranean Sea that surround La Nave Salinas, being an organic and integral part of the landscape of Ibiza, celebrating the paintings also with his presence, the sunrise, the life of its beaches and people and, the warm sunsets that we have in summer in the natural park that surrounds the space. I am convinced that Rafa and La Nave Salinas de Ibiza are going to get along really well."

Innate Talents from Generations of Art DNA

20

Before going to college, senior artist Juan Barjola (1919-2004) encouraged Macarrón not to apply for art school because his potential can be uncovered from within. Hence Macarrón went after other pursuits first but never did he give up on painting. Upon high school graduation, he became a professional cyclist who must be disciplined and enduring amid loneliness and the agony of physical consumption. Once he had cycled up the peak of Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrenees alone in challenging his physical limit. During this process, Macarrón found bike riding and painting to share a lot in common, as he worked non-stop for 8 to 10 hours in a highly focused state without feeling the lapse of time.

Such disciplined training has enabled him to be fearless even in the face of 2-4 meter large canvases.

In 2006, the 25-year-old Macarrón decided to become a fulltime artist. Unlike painting as a hobby, there is no turning back on the path of a professional artist. By this time, Macarrón had gradually developed a more sophisticated art style. His diligence and painting speed enabled him to complete a single painting within one week despite using a complex mix of media. Creation is a voluntary process whereby discipline can be reflected in the artworks as it does in bike-riding.

and slim limbs. In particular, Macarrón's characters wear brightly colored nail polish regardless of their genders. The strange postures are truly fascinating. The artist recalls being inspired by a French woman he saw in Montparnasse Paris when he was five years old. The vivid impression has led him to paint all characters with vibrantly colored nail polish.

The depiction of hands is undoubtedly the most eye-catching element in Macarrón's paintings. The artist believes that humans express emotions through their eyes and hands. Hence the hands can be expressively drawn to attract viewers' attention. There is a saying in the art community that hands and dogs are the most difficult to draw because their spirits cannot be easily captured. Previously an athlete, Macarrón likes to challenge himself. Not only does he like to focus on characters' hands and postures, but he also enjoys working on animal themes and making dog sculptures.

Some examples of dog sculptures include the bronze sculpture outside Fundación La Nave Salinas and the 2022 limited 30-piece edition copper

background colors and lightly coated paints symbolized an ethereal atmosphere that combined with well-textured group portraits to form a profoundly magical universe. The artist playfully experimented with the spatial structure and illusion. Some of the artist's multidimensional spaces resembled fictional rooms, while others look like swimming pools, beaches, unknown mountains, and planets with fantastical elements such as clouds, rainwater, towers, long stairs, and aircrafts.

The interactions and gestures between unique characters and animals, and their puzzling eyes expressing tenderness, naivety, and desires are examples of Macarrón's depiction of smooth, magical, yet in-depth paintings from his personal experiences. As opposed to the barren pessimism of existentialism, these thought-provoking and self-reflective contemporary fable paintings are truly precious in our era.

書香門第，勤勉於藝 「觀其設色明麗，風致天然，繁而能簡，艷而能清，曲盡化工之妙若非天資高， 體物深，安足以至此。」— 臺靜農 喻仲林出生於山東冠縣，幼年時期便喜愛畫畫、展現出藝術天賦，喻母更是位刺 繡高手，能不作底稿刺繡，喻氏常隨母親左右、為其鉤描刺繡與剪紙的花樣。1934 年喻母仙逝，喻仲林便往山東堂邑依附舅舅許以浩、許宗海，許家為山東世家望族， 也是著名的書香門第，所藏書畫名蹟頗豐，十舅許宗海在當時更是位富有盛名的寫意 花鳥畫家。喻仲林雖無正式拜師學畫，但於家學薰陶及十舅的影響下開始接觸、臨摹 惲壽平、任伯年的花鳥繪畫，日後習藝大成的喻氏，其所做的花鳥作品多題款南田詩 句，可見其幼年蒙受陶冶的痕跡。 1949 年，隨國民政府渡海來臺的喻仲林時任軍職，公暇之餘由藝術系學生張弘 的介紹至師範大學藝術系旁聽，開始接觸西方繪畫如水彩顏料、粉彩紙等媒材，因其 絕佳的天份，深受工筆花鳥大師金勤伯的賞識旋即拜師學藝，勤伯師常讓喻仲林到自 家習畫、並拿出珍藏的古畫讓其臨摹；金勤伯的花鳥畫承自清六家工筆帶寫意的技 法，並得其叔金城授以《百鳥圖譜》，故其畫鳥獨出一格，喻仲林盡得金氏一脈真傳， 花鳥畫骨韻兼備，又因他重寫生，這也讓臺灣工筆花鳥畫有別於中國畫壇如于非闇等 人的風格。喻氏二十七歲正式踏入水墨藝壇，經三年勤勉不懈的努力自成一家格局， 能人所不能，日日勤勉地過著點染揮毫的日子，時人更驚嘆其筆力造境青出於藍、不 遜於勤伯師筆意。喻仲林曾和其學生張克齊說：「專精一藝，才能出人頭地。」喻氏 捨山水人物、專攻花鳥的主因也在於他想證明宋人花鳥是否仍可追及並有所超越，並 以「人棄我取，為工筆保留一脈」為己任。隨著喻仲林畫名漸起，他與當時臺灣水墨 畫壇的名人如張大千、黃君璧與臺靜農等人展開了密切的往來交流，除親臨畫展給予 支持與肯定外，對於這位能承繼中國院體花鳥畫傳統的後輩又是金勤伯的高徒，張、 金二老惜才如金，不吝給予喻氏繪畫上的建議並拿出珍藏的書畫名蹟予以臨摹增益； 臺靜農更是時常出入其畫室，觀看喻仲林揮毫作畫，並為之篆印作序，愛才之心不言 而喻。 1958 年喻仲林由軍職退役、決心致力於畫業，初期為了家庭生存活計，接了許 多地毯、火柴盒等繪製委託，畫藝漸漸博得口碑，上門求畫學畫的人日益增加，喻 氏即開始鬻畫課徒。1959 年於台北市中山堂所舉辦的第一次「麗水精舍」聯展，從 此喻仲林作為專職水墨藝術家的生涯就此展開，隨後畫名遠播、國內展覽無數，如： 臺灣省立博物館（現為臺灣博物館）、歷史博物館、海天畫廊、臨雲畫廊等；海外 邀展講學更不計其數：1967 年美國加州與胡念祖的三次聯展；1975 年遠赴美國夏威 夷大學藝術系教授水墨畫、並於當地威洛亞中心舉辦個展；1977 年應邀至日本主持 現代中國畫巨匠展等。喻仲林畫名鵲起，臺靜農讚揚其花鳥畫能「曲盡化工之妙」， 儼然成為一代工筆花鳥大師，更對臺灣工筆花鳥畫壇的發展與傳承起了正面的作用。 ◀

Qin-bo, a gongbi flower and bird master. Hence, Yu started to follow Jin in practice at Jin's home. There he appreciated and imitated classical scrolls. Jin Qin-bo's techniques were derived from Qing gongbi schools and learnt the drawing of birds directly from his uncle Jin Cheng's scripts. Yu captured the skills of Jin and started creating his own style of gongbi and elegance. His keen observation allowed a great differentiation from those of comparable artists such as Yu Fei-an. Yu entered the ink art scene at the age of 27 with a unique and sophisticated style, after 3 years of intensive practice. His exceptional skills and unique styles astound contemporaries of the time. Yu mentioned to his student Chang Ke-qi that one has to specialise to excel in an area. Yu specialised in the flower and bird genre in Song style while giving up other genres such as landscapes and figure paintings. Hence he inherited the gongbi skills as his principal goal. With the rise of Yu's art, he became close to contemporary masters such as Zhang Da-qian, Huang Chun-pi and Tai Jing-nong, who gave him support in his art exhibitions. Zhang and Jin treasured Yu as a talent who passed on the tradition of flower and bird painting, so they willingly shared classical scrolls with Yu. Tai Jing-nong often visited Yu's studio and carved seals to Yu as an appreciation of his talents.

In 1958, Yu left the army and devoted his time to painting. In his early days, he designed carpets and matchboxes for commissioned works.

As his paintings gained their fame, students started pouring into his studio and Yu taught in classes for a living. In 1958, he launched his first exhibition with Lishui Jingshe at Zhongshan Hall of Taipei. This marked the debut of Yu's career. His works were sought-after since then, with local exhibition invitations from institutions such as the Taiwan Museum, the Museum of History of Taiwan, Taitian gallery and Linyun gallery.

He started exhibiting overseas with Hu Nianzu thrice in 1967, once at the Wailoa Center of the University of Hawaii in 1975 and in Japan in 1977. Yu Chung-lin gained his fame through his talents, as Tai Jing-nong mentioned, and became a prominent figure in gongbi flower and bird paintings in the Taiwanese art scene.

granted emotions into the subjects, thereby creating interesting artworks that surpasses classical masters." -Liu Yong Yu Chung-lin, Sun Jia-qin and Hu Nian-zu met at the university with Yu specialising in flower and birds, Sun in figure paintings, while Hu in landscapes. A studio was rented in Lishui street in 1956, and was named

by Tai Jing-nong as Lishui Jingshe. The name was to be a reminder of hardwork and dedication in art. Since then, their fame grew and their studio was flooded with students. According to the students, the room was packed with three teachers each occupying a desk to demonstrate skills. This way, an exchange of skills in landscape, figure and flower and bird was encouraged. Students of this studio include Liu Yong, Chang

Yu Chung-lin's ideology and styles could be summarized into the dedication towards the Song school, life observation and transformation from traditional skills. His flower and bird paintings are unique of the genre with a combination of gongbi and free-hand strokes. According to his family, Yu loved Yun Shou-ping and Run Bo-nian. After following masters, he further refined his skills by imitating classical works with special attention to the Song school and masters such as Huang Quan and Hsu Hsi. He followed the path of Song masters to paint through observation. He was a frequent visitor of the National Palace Museum to observe Song paintings. In terms of the content, Yu followed Qingteng Baiyang and Bada. In terms of life observation, Yu's techniques are refined as those of Giuseppe Castiglione (compare Peacock of the artist), Pu Hsin-yu and Qi Bai-shi. Such techniques were more refined with a more elegant composition later in his career. Hence he was regarded as one of the best representatives of flower and bird paintings unique from classical genres.

用 日本人的手，打造世界級日本威士忌 走過一個世紀的山崎蒸餾所

日本國產威士忌的起點－山崎蒸餾所的誕生 日本國產威士忌的歷史，與山崎蒸餾所緊緊相連，而要探究 山崎蒸餾所，就必定要提到出生於 1876 年的鳥井信治郎。 在明治維新的推動下，十九世紀末的日本洋溢著繁榮的氣 息，年僅 13 歲的鳥井信治郎來到日本第一批販售進口洋酒的藥 店 -- 小西儀助商店打工，在這間頗為時髦前衛的店裡，鳥井信 治郎接觸到了葡萄酒、威士忌等各類洋酒，也培養了對市場變動 的敏銳度，很快地，鳥井信治郎在 1899 年自立門戶，創立了「鳥 井商店」，隨後更名為「壽屋」，成為如今龐大的三得利集團的

最純淨的水質－全国名水百選「離宮の水」 1923 年，當鳥井信治郎與竹鶴政孝決定攜手創建全日本第一座威 士忌蒸餾所，首要關鍵便是選址，鳥井信治郎著重的有兩點，首先，他 希望蒸餾廠不要離公司總部的市區太遠以便就近管理；其二，鳥井信治 郎深信水質對於威士忌品質的重要性。因此，當他找到了如今山崎蒸餾 所座落的區域，並發現此處的水源正是日本茶道鼻祖千利休建立妙喜庵 (Miyoikan) 茶庵之地，也是日後被日本環境廳評為全國名水百選之一的 「離宮之水」後，又特別找來蘇格蘭釀酒權威博士 Dr.Moore 針對水質 進行調查，Dr.Moore 的正面反饋讓鳥井信治郎信心大增。 對於良好水質的自信，讓山崎蒸餾廠的產品純粹卻又帶有複雜氣 息、含蓄雅緻而不喧嘩。

因地制宜－一廠抵百廠 除了風土的不同，相較於蘇格蘭酒廠與酒廠間能彼此換酒以增加調 和威士忌口感的層次感，山崎很早就認知到，由於日本早期的蒸餾廠少 之又少，彼此之間更是缺乏相互流通的管道，因此，每間酒廠必須自行 生產出各式各樣的原酒，以便創造出基酒的豐富度。要達到這個目標， 參訪過山崎蒸餾所的威士忌愛好者就知道，山崎蒸餾廠最出名的莫過於 其八對大小形狀全都不一樣的蒸餾器。

The Origin of Japanese Domestic Whisky － The Birth of the Yamazaki Distillery The history of Japanese whisky is closely linked to the Yamazaki Distillery. To explore the Yamazaki distillery, it is necessary to mention Shinjiro Torii, who was born in 1876.

In this rather fashionable and avant-garde shop, Shinjiro Torii was introduced to wine, whisky and other foreign liquors and developed a sensitivity to market changes. In 1899, Shinjiro Torii established his own business, the Torii Store, which was later renamed the Torii Shoten Store and became the predecessor of today's huge and valuable Suntory Group.

Although the subsequent launch of Whistan, a soda-added whisky, was not as popular as expected, Shinjiro Torii, who was keenly aware of the trend of the market, saw the possibility of a market for "real whisky".

However, the production of "real whisky" required not only distillation equipment but also experts in whisky making. It was at this time, Masataka Taketsuru, known as the father of Japanese whisky, returned to Japan in November of 1920.

Originally appreciated by the president of Settsu Shuzo, Masataka Taketsuru was sent to Scotland in 1918 to learn the skill of making whisky. In 1919, he served as an apprentice at Longmorn Distillery.

However, just as he was about to return to Japan, Japan was unfortunately in the state of economic depression that has put Settsu Shuzo's whisky making plan into an end. Masataka Taketsuru, who had a strong ambition, and Shinjiro Torii, who was actively developing real whisky in Japan, hit off immediately. The two signed a 10-year contract in June 1923 and promptly bought the land at the border of Kyoto and Osaka on October 1st the same year. After investing around two million yen over one year, ▲

the distiller of Yamazaki Distillery officially started to work at 11:11 a.m. on November 11, 1924. The Japanese malt whisky was produced for the first time in a pot made in Japan, completely according to the handdrawn notes of Taketsuru.

However, the creation of the "real whisky" did not go smoothly. At

The success of Akadama Sweet Wine was no accident. It was then that Shinjiro Torii realized that simply introducing or educating consumers to get used to foreign liquor was not the best strategy in the market, and that creating something what Japanese consumer would desire for was what he wanted to do. More importantly, from his early twenties, he showed the vision of a modern entrepreneur and recognized the importance of marketing.

the end of the production season in 1925, Shinjiro Torii sent Masataka Taketsuru back to Hazelburn Distillery in Scotland for further training.

On the other side, as a business owner, Shinjiro Torii had to develop various products such as curry powder, tooth cleaning powder, soy sauce, pepper and tea leaves to support the huge expenses of the distillery during this period. In April 1929, notwithstanding, Yamazaki Distillery's first whisky "Suntory Whisky White" was launched. However, the strong smoky peated flavor did not arouse attention of the market as they had expected. The performance of sales was so poor that Shinjiro Torii was convinced that Japanese market was not yet ready to accept the authentic Scottish flavor they tried to mimic and create; thus, he has made up his

Keizo Saji also inherited his father's beliefs and business management practices, believing that the Torii Shoten Store sold not only products but also the "contemporary lifestyle of the product."

While taking care of the quality of the products, the power of marketing was used to make the brand deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In mid-1950s, the Torii Shoten Store opened more than 35,000 branded bars throughout Japan to promote Torys and Suntory. In 1956, the magazine Yoshu Tengoku (The Heaven of Foreign Wine) was launched as propaganda. In 1961, the "Drink Torys, Travel to Hawaii" advertising campaign was launched, which precisely captured the desire of everyone's pursuing for a better life deep down in the heart.

Furthermore, Keizo Saji teamed up with studied the structure of the Japanese taste buds together with the company's first chief winemaker, Inui Sato. Based on the findings of this report, Shinjiro Torii launched the "Suntory Royal" in May 1960. Royal was named because Shinjiro

remarkable, was based only on the distillery's insistence on its ideals. On one hand, due to the shrinking domestic market for whisky as a result of the Japanese government's unfriendly taxation system for whisky, the overall consumption of domestic whisky had fallen to one-third of its 1983 level in 2001. On the other hand, Japanese consumers still preferred the soft and smooth low-priced whisky to the more full-bodied single malt whisky that are richer and stronger at that time. However, despite the fact that single malt whisky accounted only for a very small percentage of overall sales, Suntory continued to creep forward on the path of single malt whisky, in line with Shinjiro Torii's belief of "making world-class Japanese whisky with Japanese hands." In addition to "Suntory Single Malt Whisky Yamazaki 12 Years Old," "Yamazaki 18 Years Old," "Yamazaki 10 Years Old," and "Yamazaki 25 Years Old," were successively launched from 1992 to 1998.

In June 1971, the Japanese government announced the adoption of external economic measures, and it was expected that if the domestic whisky could not make a breakthrough in quality, it would no longer have a competitive advantage. Therefore, Suntory built Hakushu Distillery in 1972 to provide the group with more elements for blended whisky.

In 2005, "Yamazaki 18 Years Old" won the double gold medal in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. In 2006, "Yamazaki 18 Years Old" won the Trophy (first prize) at the International Wine & Spirit Competition. The international awards have brought Japanese whisky to the attention of whisky lovers around the world. Not only blended whisky but also Japanese single malt whisky became recognized and praised by the whole world. Shinjiro Torii's belief of "making world-class Japanese whisky with Japanese hands" finally realized, receiving applause from all over the world.

Under the firm belief of Shinjiro Torii, the excellence of Japanese domestic whisky and the success of Suntory are no accident and no mere luck, but the Japanese people's pursuit of the ultimate workforce culture and continuous improvement of technology.

Wakon Yōsai － Unique Japanese Characteristics The technology of Japanese whisky was basically inherited from Scotland. However, different terroir gives Japanese whisky a very different flavor from that of Scotch whisky.

join forces to build the first whisky distillery in Japan, the first key was to choose the location. There were two important points for Shinjiro Torii. Firstly, he wanted the distillery to be located not too far from the company's headquarters in the city so that it could be managed nearby; secondly, he believed that the quality of water is the most important thing that relates to the quality of whisky. He discovered that the water source of the area where Yamazaki Distillery is located today was the same place where the founder of Japanese Tea ceremony, Sen no Rikyu, had established the Miyoikan tea house. The water here was also the"Rikyū Spring" later ranked by the Ministry of the Environment as one of the

In the United Kingdom, the ceremonies continued through days with mourning, yet not without glorious memories, for Queen Elizabeth II fared well to this world, and left with her gracious shadows. In the worldwide live broadcast, politicians and dignities from all over the world came together. Among them, surely, stood her majesty's whole beloved family. As always, the jewelry worn by members of the royal family became the focus of the media. But at this day, all the accessorized details are not for the prying eyes, but to reveal the familial emotions and respect for the late matriarch: pearls are signs of mourning for the aristocrats; thistle would be the flower of Scotland where the Queen feels most at home; princesses wore elegant trinkets gifted by the Queen or loved and wore by herself; and there's Lady Louise Windsor, wearing a necklace of a silver horse, representing her shared love of the horse with the silver lady.

Most of the jewelry on the royal family members belong to the personal collection of Elizabeth II. Among the royal families in Europe, the one ruling England has the most complete collecting and inheriting system. Many famous items are kept in the family throughout generations, like the Lover's Knot tiara of Queen Mary, Sapphire Brooch of Queen Elizabeth, Sapphire engagement ring of Princess Diana, and the Emerald wedding ring of the spouse of Duke Windsor, etc.

For European Royal families, gemstones are not just riches to show. As global trade routes were carved out, diamonds from India and Emeralds from South America began to congregate rapidly in their collections. And by inheriting, every generation bestows upon the precious items a new meaning. Katherine the Great of Russia

The royal jewelries, isolated from the general public in the old days, are gradually revealing their deep meanings shining through the lens of every media on every occasion.

BAGUETTE 貝貴提包

從手拿，夾在腋下到肩背； 女人時尚進化論 Text / 袁青

《慾望城市》系列續集《And Just Like That》，別來無恙的慾女們 又來攪和，掀起一波 Baguette「貝貴提包」風潮。 飾演凱莉 Carrie 的女星莎拉潔西卡 Sarah Jessica Parker 在《欲望 都市》中拿著飾滿漸層色亮片的包款入鏡，她說：「這不是一款包，它 是 Baguette。」自此便在流行時尚文化中奠定了它的神級地位。 抓在手上或夾在腋下，形狀扁平 Baguette 包，顧名思義，靈感是 源自法國國民長棍麵包而得名。集結「上城與下城、奢華與實用、粗 獷與浪漫、過度與現實」之間微妙衝突的時尚指標的 Baguette 提包是 FENDI 的招牌，搭配四個可隨心情調整更換的 FF 包扣，和幾乎成為「工 藝之最」的各種拼接材質的包身，一舉將 Baguette 包款拱為時尚經典 中的代表。 為慶祝 Baguette 提包款誕生 25 周年，FENDI 選在時尚之都紐約作 秀，無疑也是向流行文化歷史上奠定地位的 Baguette 提包致敬和造勢 的機會。於是， Baguette 提包變成一個「迷你版」的多口袋，無處不在， 貫穿全場。出現在貂皮或亮面皮革派克大衣和絲緞長筒靴上；而暖手套、 毛線帽、裙子、毛衣和後背包上的 Baguette 包分身；充滿裝飾藝術的 魅力。 更不用說 Baguette 也促成「Fendi at Tiffany's」兩大品牌的聯名合 作。在紐約立業的傳奇著名珠寶 Tiffany & Co.，以純銀、琺瑯、鱷魚皮、 白 K 金和鑽石和經典 Tiffany Blue 「知更鳥藍色」的亮面鱷魚皮，將 Baguette 包推上重奢華的極致。最令人驚豔的是一款全由紋理純銀材質 製成的 Baguette 包款。上面刻有分別代表義大利與紐約州的百合花和 玫瑰花。這也是 FENDI「Hand in Hand」手工製包企畫案中首件來自 義大利以外的卓越工藝。 此外，Baguette 提包同時也出現搭配同色皮革肩帶，一改過去手 拿，肘夾的使用方式；某種程度，你也可以說，FENDI 與時並進，讓 現代女性適時騰出兩隻手來，充分掌握自由自在「做自己」的時尚進化。

受到 Val pusteria/Pustertal 青翠山谷獨特景致啟發，座落於義大利多洛米蒂 (Dolomites) 山脈 岩層上的一間旅館被改造成懸垂天地間的驚人之人作 Alpin Panorama Hotel Hubertus 高檔酒店。 這都要歸功於 Gasse 家族熱愛生活並且對建築及自然相互作用著迷的兒子 Christian，於 2016 年聘請建築事務所 noa*（network of 在 architecture）操刀，以高於地面約 12 公尺，長達 25 公尺 漂浮於空中的「Sky Poor」懸臂式天際泳池，讓這裡成了享譽國際的標地之一。 Alpin Panorama Hotel Hubertus 酒 店 多 年 來 一 直 在 突 破 界 限 — 無 論 是 服 務 還 是 在 建 築 上。 Hotel 進入新視野，閃耀著超越極限的建築傑作，就像它壯觀的天空泳池，漂浮在天地之間：呈現 上下顛倒和山形屋並置的「Heaven & Hell」水療中心「天堂與地獄」，一個顛覆健康概念的平台。

當建築事務所 noa* 考驗著設計團隊想像力，及工程技術 極限的總合下，在 2016 年為 Hubertus 酒店完成了懸臂式游泳 池「Sky Poor」的挑戰，想像把一塊擱淺在地球和天空之間的 岩石改造成酒店的新指標；接著新挑戰是， noa* 團隊從觀察 泳池倒映的景觀找到下一個靈感，一個與地平線、顛倒感知相 結合的概念，再度挑戰重力定律的一個懸浮平台。建築師也是 noa* 創始人 Lukas 解釋說：「這個項目的本質是翻轉視野」。 在與空中泳池「Sky Poor」媲美的另一個象徵性建築是， 打造一座懸停在地面上方 15 米處，由兩根用落葉松原木包裹 的柱子支撐的人字山形屋，一個超越重力及再次超越自然法則 的水療中心「Heaven & Hell」，漂浮在深藍色的天空和田園 詩般的山谷間空地上；上下顛倒的「垂直對應」再次令人絕倒。

優雅的小屋分散在令人印象深刻的鋼結構頂部， 倒置在較低的樓層，讓人想起原始的高山小屋， 這些小屋在這片獨特的土地上為高山草甸增色不少。 精緻的人行天橋從酒店的休閒室直接通往天際， 上下山屋的特點不同，上層擁有兩座恆溫游泳池、 兩個全景淋浴間和一間更衣室，提供舒適的水療體驗，下層則有蒸氣室、 冰霧淋浴和室外游泳池，極端冷熱的共存體驗，宛如天堂與地獄。

我的網球人生就是時尚 21 世紀開啟了維納斯（Venus）和塞雷娜·威廉斯（Serena Williams）姐妹倆傑出的運動時代，也是汗淋漓的運動和時 尚劃上等號的時刻。因為就像她們的比賽成績一樣，大膽 出色的造型，一再證明著勇於冒險，甚至突破網球界限的 個人風格，代表一種新世代的時尚品種。2010 年，姐姐維 納斯（大威廉絲）穿著以為 19 世紀「康康舞」的紅色滾邊 黑色蕾絲連衣裙上場打球的造型，到妹妹（小威廉斯）塞 雷娜 2018 年引起轟動的緊身連衣褲；隨之，2019 年，以一 件由 Virgil Abloh （Off-White 創始人兼路易威登男裝藝術 總監）和 Nike 設計，上面用法文寫著 " 母親、冠軍、女王、 女神 " 的黑白條紋套裝出現在球場上的小威廉絲，更勝老 姐，引發網球界一片嘩然；甚至驚動法國網球聯合會發出 " 不合宜 " 的聲明公告。 小威廉斯的時尚影響力不僅持續而且多年來不斷在球 場外發光發熱。曾在勞德代爾堡藝術學院就讀多年時裝學 校並與 HSN 和 Nike 合作服裝系列後，小威廉斯於 2018 年 推出了她的第一條系列 "S by Serena"，隨後於 2019 年推出 同名珠寶品牌。

職業網壇生涯最終拿下 23 座大滿貫女單冠軍的美國網球名將 小威廉絲於 2002 年法國網球公開賽至 2003 年澳大利亞網球公開 賽，連續四屆女單賽事奪冠，成就史稱「Serena 塞雷娜大滿貫」； 生涯坐擁 23 次大滿貫冠軍，贏得 4 枚奧運金牌，曾高居世界排名 第一長達 319 週，戰績滿滿的她幾乎網球生涯都是和老姐對幹。 2017 年澳網，威廉絲姊妹進行大滿貫決賽對決，最終由小威奪冠， 超越葛拉芙成為公開賽時代最多大滿貫單打冠軍的女選手。但，卻 宣佈要退休啦。 41 歲的小威廉絲在時尚雜誌（Vogue）撰文預告退休決定時， 寫道：「如果不曾處在大威的陰影下，我永遠不會成為我自己。當 別人說我就是那個小妹時，激起了我的鬥志。」 但她也說，「我不喜歡退休這個詞，也許更恰當的說法是進 化，我正從網球轉向其他對我來說很重要的事。」退休後的「小 威」，這位球場內外都「吸睛」的運動員。根據資料顯示，贏得超 過 9450 萬美元的職業比賽獎金，約合台幣 28 億元以上，創下所 有女運動員總收入之最；而三歲拿球拍，早在不到兩歲，還待在嬰 兒車內就被姊姊大威廉絲推到球場上的小威廉絲，以整個人生都花 在網球場上，經歷剖腹、肺栓塞後，直接打大滿貫賽，也曾經在哺 乳期間，甚至產後憂鬱症時也從未間斷繼續上場所掙來的「品牌價 值」，相信會繼續在網球場外，保持最狂「吸金」的紀錄。
