獨特的藝術手法模糊了藝術、設計和商品的界限。"X X" 形雙眼打上 KAWS 的印記二度創作的卡通形象，主體形象更加強烈，成為一枚通 關密碼，彰顯 KAWS 跨越國界族群與世界溝通的符碼。 英國鬼才藝術家 Mr Doodle 憑藉一隻麥克筆，以密鋪式的簡單線 條塗鴉風靡全球。2019 年 Mr Doodle 取材一系列改造世界名畫的塗鴉 創作，重新演繹那些藝術史中的名家作品。《 Doodle 吉他手》取材自 傳奇藝術大師巴勃羅·畢卡索《老吉他手 The Old Guitarist》是畢卡索「藍 色時期」經典畫作之一，以單色陰鬱的藍色為主，有時並取用陰沉的 題材。芝加哥藝術學院在 1926 年購買到這幅畫後，也成為第一個將畢 加索永久陳列的美國博物館。而 Mr Doodle 以名作為原型，整幅畫面 以藍色打底，看似苦難中卻又妙趣橫生，Mr Doodle 以他獨特且新穎的 個人視角重新詮釋了屬於他自己的塗鴉藝術。

新興西洋藝術漸為主流、日韓藝術仍為亮點 當代藝術百花齊放，而奈良美智，無疑是近年藝術市場最炙手可熱 的日本藝術家名字之一。其畫作雅俗共賞，享譽國際，近年來更在藝術 市場中立於穩定地位。「森子」是奈良美智為數眾多的雕塑作品之一， 由於奈良美智幾乎不為筆下任何娃娃命名，更可知森子在奈良美智心 目中的地位何其重要。此件 2016 年作品《森林之子 / 奶油般的雪》239 公分的尺寸有著奶油色的溫暖氛圍。《森林之子》更為奈良美智盡顯精 髓象徵性版本的森子雕塑，為日本青森縣立美術館為慶祝開館十週年， 特別請奈良美智創作高約六公尺的全新常設作品。奈良企圖以孩童純真 的角度，跳脫以往作品中諷刺的口吻或憤怒，轉而回歸單純、平靜的自 然之境，如冷杉般高聳彷彿直通天際彷彿要與宇宙溝通般。

[ THE ARTIST ]

塔妮亞．馬莫列霍的藝術創作始於時尚與生活風格雜誌的 插畫作家。出生於多米尼加，目前定居美國紐約，2005 年，她 開始致力於藝術生涯。總是有著令人過目難忘的深邃眼眸與動 人神情女子為其標誌性風格。她的作品受到文藝復興和巴洛克 時期繪畫藝術，以及德國抽象和具象表現主義的影響，塔妮亞 的創作不斷探索性別和身份的問題，女性的表情與身體語言成 為觀畫者與藝術家間的交流載體。 During the pandemic, the world is struggling with the effects of inflation, high interest rates, vicious virus and lockdown. In face of these adversities, artists and collectors discover silver linings through artistic creations. They discover new media and forms of representation through Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, WeChat, Weibo and Tik Tok etc. These are channels of instant transmissions and are causing significant influences on the art market. Artists promote themselves and their art through these platforms and use them as a primary selling tool. Such multinational platforms with a broader variety of audience encourage a surge of significant transactions in Western contemporary art and, treading along the line, manga and street art.

The Rise of New Western Art with A Focus on Japanese and Korean Art Following the boom of the Contemporary art market, the art of Yoshitomo Nara became the most sought-after in the art market in recent years. With a wide audience across the globe, its performance is strong in the market. Miss Forest is one of the sculptural art by the artist. As Yoshitomo Nara seldom names his subject, the fact that this art being named proves its importance to the artist. Miss Forest Creamy Snow with 239 cm in height and a creamy and cozy setting was created ㄊ in 2016. Miss Forest is a unique representation of the artist as a work of the series, up to 6 feet in height, was featured in the commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the Aomori Museum of Art. Nara created the work from the perspective of a child.

This differentiates itself from the sarcasm and anger featured in previous works. Innocence and serenity of Nature dominate the theme, as a fir soaring towards the sky and beyond.

13

A Revolutionary Form of Representation In terms of the contemporary art scene, Kaws is a name known to all walks of life, as he is a pioneer in pop art and the contemporary Western art scene. His passion towards creating large scale works shines beyond his performance in the market. Kaws utilises manga and pop culture elements as a concept and feature of his work. His unique representation blurs the boundaries of art, design and commerce. "XX" marked eyes became a feature of Kaws artwork with a distinct character and a universal language across cultural backgrounds.

British talented artist Mr Doodle (His real name Sam Cox) wins enormous popularity across the world by creating with his marker densely laying out simple graffiti lines. In 2019, Mr Doodle created a series of graffiti which transformed from the world's famous paintings, reinterpreting the works from those masters in art history. Mr Doodle "Doodle Guitarist" is drawn from the legendary art master Pablo Picasso "The Old Guitarist", which is one of his classic paintings from the "Blue Period", mainly monochrome in gloomy blue hue. Since the School of the Art Institute of Chicago acquired this painting in 1926, it also became the first American museum to permanently exhibit works from Picasso. Mr Doodle is taken from this painting as the prototype, the whole picture applies bluish tone as background, which seems to be suffering yet full of wit simultaneously. Mr Doodle reinterprets his own graffiti art with his distinct and new personal perspective.

New York artist Eddie Martinez uses bright colours, innovative lines and ad hoc media in his art. His works show his ideals of life with earlier works showing a more realistic approach with subjects of representation; while his later works turn abstraction into an expression of emotions. Under the influences of abstraction, traditional art history and pop art, his works merges techniques of paintings, sketches, abstraction and realism to create a unique representation of art.

Rough and Innocence As the New Aesthetics Criteria in Western Contemporary Art The beauty of child-like innocence prevailed in the art market in recent years, as it arouses childhood memories and innovative creation. Such humour calms the distressed minds amidst the chaotic modern world.

Born in Madrid, Rafa Macarron is a gifted self-taught artist with immense passion in art. The rich colours and unique composition allows the artist to gain popularity among European and American collectors. His works depict his reminiscence of the past, inspired by his childhood memories and fancies. The subject matters form various stories, as in reality, ideas and thoughts appear to be similar yet differ in context.

Szabolcs Bozo is a London-based young artist from Hungary. In recent years, he was acclaimed as one of the significant artists born after the 90s. His works

feature cartoon elements derived from Hungarian animations, folk tales and mythologies. Yet his works show references of expressionism of Cy Twombly, gesturalism of Jean-Michel Basquiat. Within a couple of years, the artist has held exhibitions in New York, Miami, Madrid, Paris, London and Shanghai.

Felix Treadwell is a British artist born after the 90s, specialising in depicting child-like works with subjects of large beady eyes, flat setting with strong Japanese manga influence. Through the depiction of lines and delicate choices of colours, the artist leads the audience into his world of art.

Jordy Kerwick is known for his primitive painting style and thick impasto technique, often depicting fantasy creatures that evoke myths from South

America. As a self-taught artist, Kerwick does not adhere to traditional artistic methods and instead explores the texture and surface of painting in a pure way.

The main subjects in his paintings are often presented as almost abstract, crude shapes, creating a flat three-dimensional space. His powerful brushstrokes and expressive colors form a lively composition, revealing the most natural and authentic beauty of the objects.

Jon Burgerman is an artist with humour. He believes that imagination is key to his creation, as he allows audiences to create through his art. To him, art has no boundaries. Various colours were used to highlight child-like fun with hints of British humour, allowing his works to be well-received by different countries.

Tania Marmolejo is an artist with a background in fashion and lifestyle magazine illustration. Born in Dominica, currently based in New York, she started her artistic career in 2005. Her works feature women with captivating eyes, under a strong influence of Renaissance and Baroque paintings, German abstraction and realistic expressionism. Tania's works explore issues of sexuality and identity and use the feminine expression and body language as a medium of expression.

超當代翻轉思維

談女性藝術家的奮鬥與市場概況

Reimagining the Ultra-Contemporary Art Landscape Challenges and Market Dynamics for Women Artists 16

[ ART & INVESTMENT ]

本期專欄來談談近幾年熱門的話題，藝術界的女力崛起以及 女性藝術家的市場概況。國際間相關的策展、論述非常之多，而 性別平權在拍賣市場也趨為主流題材。當 21 世紀人權思想與創作 講求自由之際，兩性平權在藝術產業界依舊進步緩慢，仍存在著 很大的進步空間。 根據 2023 年 4 月 4 日《The Art Newspaper》的一篇報導，國 際大拍賣行蘇富比、佳士得和邦瀚斯的 2022 年度職員薪酬男性仍 高於女性，雖然有逐年改善中，但差距仍顯著。那麼創作者的行 情呢？有一說，迄今為止藝術市場最穩定、最可靠的因素，即是 白人男性藝術家的主導地位。不過，以比價效應而言，被低估的 女性或是非白人藝術家，是否才是我們應該多加關心的族群呢？

藝術史的厭女症（Misogyny） 作家維吉尼亞．吳爾芙曾說：「在歷史的大部分時間裡，匿 名者都是女性」。 過去女性背負著不能拋頭露面或孕育後代等規範，婚後或者 成為母親之後，可能因家庭社會的責任被迫停止創作。西方畫廊 曾將懷孕的女性藝術家視為高風險，採取中斷代理的無情舉措。 回顧歷史上，古今中外歷史對女性向來都不公平，過去的藝術史 籍幾乎由男性書寫，其中不少觀點還帶有女性貶抑的厭女症。

可以想像嗎？ 1962 年出版的藝術教科書－詹森（Horst Woldemar Janson, 1913-1982）撰寫的《藝術史》（History of Art），有 15 種語 言版本，發行數量至少四百萬冊以上，原版書中未提及任何一位女性藝 術家的名字或作品，將女性完全排除在藝術史之外，後來經改編的版本 才增加女性藝術家的篇幅；而另外一本適合年輕人入門閱讀的聖經－ 宮布利希（Ernst Gombrich, 1909-2001）的《藝術的故事》（The Story of Art），發行數量亦有數百萬冊，曾被翻譯成 30 多種語言，知名度 更高。然而，首版的《藝術的故事》裡沒有提到任何一位女性藝術家。 後者這本鉅作從 1950 年首版發行以來，6 百多頁橫跨數千年厚達的世 界的藝術故事裡，對女性藝術家完全避而不談，而後來的改版到甚至第 16 版（2022），也僅僅只提到一位女性藝術家，德國的凱特．柯勒惠 支（Käthe Kollwitz, 1867-1945）。

綜觀過去的藝術史論述多以西方男性白人視角，女性或有色種族的 藝術成為遺珠或著墨有限。美國傑出女權主義藝術史學者琳達．諾克林 （Linda Nochlin, 1931-2017） 曾 在 1971 年 在《Artnews》 雜 誌 發 表 一 篇〈為何沒有偉大的女性藝術家？〉（Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists），成為當代探討女性藝術家地位最重要起始點，她認 為社會阻礙女性追求藝術，藝術學院為女性設限，還有藝術史的男性菁 英主義。傳統的社會制度及教育系統，並不樂見女性參與美術學院學 習，例如女學生不得參與人體寫生課。諾克林將女性主義納入藝術史的 範疇，收集研究過去四百年來活躍的女性藝術家，並在美術館舉辦巡迴 展覽與出版圖錄，打破了藝術圈男性唯一的話語霸權。 琳達．諾克林甚且研究「東方主義」（Orientalism），數百年男性 藝術家們以東方主義探索色情與暴力主題，這些主題未必是要宣傳殖民 主義的霸權，而反映出早期法國社會的沙文主義與厭女症現象。她的言 論像灑向世界的種子，在各地開枝散葉，影響深遠。女性主義運動的另 一高峰，則要提到「游擊隊女孩」（Guerrilla Girls）。

1985 年七位女性藝術家戴上大猩猩面具，化名為已故的女性藝術 家與作家，在紐約發起「游擊隊女孩」運動，抗議藝術界積弊已久的性 別歧視與種族主義。這場運動的起因在於前一年度紐約 MoMA 現代美 術館的展覽「近期繪畫和雕塑的國際調查」（An International Survey of Recent Painting and Sculpture）(1984），該展宣稱來自 17 國最重要 的 165 名當代藝術家名單，其中只有 13 名女性，不到 8%，非白人的 有色人種藝術家比例更少。 「游擊隊女孩」再度喚醒文化政治中的歧視問題，成員花費數年參 觀並統計男性與女性藝術家在紐約大都會美術館的館藏比例，1989 年 女性藝術家在該館的收藏不到 5%，而作品中 85% 的裸體作品是女性。 「游擊隊女孩」運動在 20 世紀末曾為女性藝術家發聲，像焰火般照亮 星空，令人感佩。

真正的藝術家不分男女老幼 每隔一段時間，女性藝術家的問題就會被提出來討論，但熱度一過 似乎又回歸到現實。所謂數字會說話，關心相關議題的人士曾幫忙整理 出資料。 由獨立編輯夏洛特．伯恩斯（Charlotte Burns）和 Artnet News 的 茱莉亞．霍爾柏林（Julia Halperin）兩人共同創建《伯恩斯－霍爾柏 林報告》（Burns Halperin Report），從 2018 年起每年底公布研究報 告，美國黑人藝術家、女性藝術家和黑人女性藝術家在美國博物館和全 球藝術市場中的代表性。在 2022 年的報告中顯示，美國藝術界進展不 大，但國際舞台正在進步，只是仍舊緩慢。博物館購藏女性藝術家作品 2009 年 達 到 高 峰， 在 #MeToo 運 動 出 現 後，2016 年 和 2017 年 也 略 有 上升。而購藏美國黑人藝術家作品在 2015 年達到頂峰，而就是在「黑 人的命也是命」BLM 運動成立兩年後。 18

[ ART & INVESTMENT ]

In this column, I delve into a compelling and timely subject: the burgeoning influence of women in the art world and the current market dynamics surrounding female artists. This topic has ignited a global discourse among curators and scholars, with gender equality gaining prominence even within the auction market. Despite the 21st-century focus on human rights and freedom of expression, achieving gender equality within the art industry remains an ongoing and gradual process, signifying that there is still a considerable journey ahead.

According to an article from "The Art Newspaper" on April 4, 2023, major international auction houses, such as Sotheby's, Christie's, and Bonhams, still exhibit a gender pay gap in staff salaries, with men earning more than women in the year 2022. Although there has been gradual improvement in recent years, a significant disparity remains.

Now, what about the market for artists? It has been suggested that the most stable and reliable factor in the art market so far is the dominant position of white male artists. However, in terms of comparative value, shouldn't we pay more attention to undervalued female or non-white artists?

Misogyny in Art History Writer Virginia Woolf once said, "For most of history, anonymous was a woman."

In the past, women were burdened with norms such as not being able to be in the spotlight or pursue their artistic careers after marriage or becoming mothers. Pregnant female artists, for example, were considered high risk by Western galleries, and ruthless measures like suspending representation were taken. Looking back at history, women have always been treated unfairly both in the eastern and western contexts, and the historical records of art were predominantly written by men, many of whom harbored a misogynistic view of women.

Imagine this: The 1962 art textbook "History of Art" by Horst Woldemar Janson (1913-1982) achieved global success, with 15 language versions and over four million copies distributed. Astonishingly, the original edition completely omitted the names and works of any female artists, effectively erasing women from the narrative of art history. It wasn't until later adaptations that the inclusion of female artists began to expand. Similarly, "The Story of Art" by Ernst Gombrich (1909-2001),

However, even in its original 1950 edition, the book neglected to mention any female artists. In this monumental work, spanning thousands of years and spanning over six hundred pages to cover the vast history of art, it wasn't until the 16th edition in 2022 that a solitary female artist, Käthe Kollwitz (1867-1945) from Germany, was finally acknowledged.

Looking back at the discourse on art history, it has predominantly been shaped from the perspective of white male artists in the Western world, while the contributions of women and artists from non-white backgrounds have often been overlooked or given limited attention. Renowned feminist art historian Linda Nochlin (1931-2017) made a significant breakthrough in contemporary discussions on the status of women artists with her 1971 article "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?" published in Artnews magazine. Nochlin argued that societal barriers hindered women from pursuing art, art institutions imposed limitations on women, and art history was dominated by male elitism. Traditional social systems and educational structures were not supportive of women's participation in art academies, as seen in restrictions such as women students being barred from life drawing classes. Nochlin incorporated feminism into the realm of art history, conducting research on active women artists from the past four centuries.

She organized traveling exhibitions in museums and published catalogs, thus challenging the male-dominated hegemony of discourse within the art world.

Linda Nochlin went even further to study "Orientalism," exploring how male artists for centuries used Orientalism to depict themes of sexuality and violence. These themes were not necessarily promoting the hegemony of colonialism but rather reflected the chauvinism and misogyny prevalent in early French society. Her ideas spread like seeds across the world, taking root and exerting a profound influence.

Another peak of the feminist movement is marked by the "Guerrilla Girls," a group of activists.

In 1985, seven female artists donned gorilla masks and adopted the aliases of deceased women artists and writers to launch the "Guerrilla Girls" movement in New York.

Their aim was to protest against the longstanding gender discrimination and racism deeply embedded within the art world. The catalyst for this movement was the exhibition "An International Survey of Recent Painting and Sculpture"

held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York the previous year (1984). The exhibition claimed to showcase the works of 165 contemporary artists from 17 countries, yet only 13 of them were women, accounting for less than 8% of the total. The representation of artists from non-white racial backgrounds was even more minuscule.

[ ART & INVESTMENT ] The "Guerrilla Girls" once again brought to light the issue of discrimination in cultural politics. Members spent several years visiting and tallying the representation of male and female artists in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. In 1989, they found that less than 5% of the artworks in the museum were by female artists, while 85% of the nude artworks were representations of women. The "Guerrilla Girls" movement in the late 20th century served as a powerful voice for women artists, shining like fireworks illuminating the night sky, evoking admiration.

The True Artist Must Be 'Neither Woman Nor Man, Neither Old Nor Young' The issue of women artists is periodically brought up for discussion, but once the heat dies down, it seems to return to reality.

Numbers speak for themselves, and individuals concerned about these issues have helped compile data.

Charlotte Burns, an independent editor, and Julia Halperin from Artnet News collaborated to create the "Burns Halperin Report" in 2018. This annual research report focuses on the representation of Black artists, women artists, and Black women artists in American museums and the global art market. The 2022 report highlighted that progress in the American art world has been minimal, while there have been gradual improvements on the international stage. The acquisition of artworks by women artists reached its peak in 2009, with a slight increase in 2016 and 2017 following the emergence of the #MeToo movement. Similarly, acquisitions of artworks by Black American artists peaked in 2015, two

U n s u r p r i s i n g l y, t h e m a j o r i t y o f a r t w o r k s f o u n d i n m u s e u m collections continue to be created by male artists, and international auction houses tend to showcase a higher number of works by male artists compared to their female counterparts. However, there is some positive news to highlight in the realm of contemporary art: significant progress has been achieved!

In the post-pandemic 2022 Venice Biennale, a significant turning point was witnessed as there were more female artists participating than male artists. However, it is important to refrain from framing this as a "victory of women over men," as some media outlets might suggest. Instead, it should be celebrated as a triumph for society at large!

Curator Cecilia Alemani, responsible for curating the Venice Biennale, emphasized that her selection process was not influenced by gender but rather focused on the individual artists themselves.

The late New York School artist Joan Mitchell (1925-1992) once said, "the true artist must be 'neither woman nor man, neither old nor young.'" Mitchell's remarkable legacy includes holding the record for achieving the highest price for a female abstract expressionist artist.

The increased visibility of female artists is not limited to the Venice Biennale, but it has also extended to institutional exhibitions, making its mark in the art market as well. The art market has shown a strong interest in and demand for collecting female art. According to the "Art Market in 2022" report published by the art database platform Artprice, the section on "Trends in Contemporary Art" highlights the growing attention received by female artists.

Even non-contemporary artists like Mary Cassatt (1844-1926), an Impressionist painter, have achieved new auction records, reaching nearly $7.5 million.

American post-war abstract expressionist artist Elaine de Kooning (1918-1989) has surpassed the million-dollar mark, while artists such as Mary Heilman (b.

1940) and Etel Adnan (1925-2021), a Lebanese-American artist, have also set new auction records.

According to data from the Artprice website, there is also a significant level of enthusiasm among young collectors for contemporary artists. This year, thewre was a collaboration between Louis Vuitton and the renowned Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, which later culminated in the largest-scale event ever held in Hong Kong. In 2022, Kusama also set her new auction record. Several other contemporary female artists have also achieved new auction records in the past two years. These include Christine Ay Tjoe from Indonesia ($1,732,158), Katherine Bernhardt from the United States ($764,411), Shara Hughes from the United States ($2,940,000), María Berrío from Colombia ($1,603,000), Chiharu Shiota from Japan ($396,751), Mayuka Yamamoto from Japan ($281,385), and many others. Their remarkable achievements highlight the growing recognition and demand for contemporary female artists in the art market.

Empowering the Art World: Trailblazing Women Artists in the 'Ultra-Contemporary' Market In 2019, Artnet News editor coined the term "Ultra-Contemporary" to refer to contemporary artists born after 1975, providing a more precise categorization of contemporary art. Artists within the "Ultra-Contemporary" category have gained significant prominence in the recent secondary art

market.

The rise of the market for "Ultra-Contemporary artists" has been astonishing. The international emerging artists' market has broken through the limitations of gender and nationality, overturning the aesthetic standards or traditional constraints of a new generation of collectors. Whether or not they have received institutional or museum recognition or collection, these artists have pioneered a greater number and breadth of high-price records compared to others.

Young female artists are defying age and experience barriers, as collectors are increasingly recognizing their talent regardless of these factors. Their market value has witnessed a significant surge between 2022 and 2023, thanks to their innovative styles and the influence of social media. The younger generation of collectors displays a remarkable openness to challenging artistic traditions and refuses to diminish the value of these women based on gender or ethnicity. This inclusive mindset has paved the way for the emergence of more female artists born in the 1980s and 1990s, shaping a promising future for the art scene.

"Women are the majority in the Top 10 under-40 artists ranked by H1 2022 auction turnover! If we look at the Top 50, twenty-one are women. This ranking reveals the ten young (living) artists whose work elicited new auction records during the first half of 2022. Women artists clearly dominate with six results (highlighted), including the four best results! Never have women been so present and successful on the auction market."

In another article published on March 8, 2023, on the Artsy art platform by Casey Lesser, titled "The Ultra-Contemporary Women Artists at the Forefront of the Art Market," it is mentioned that the market size for ultra-contemporary female artists grew by 4,071% from 2012 to 2022, with sales increasing from 5.28 million USD to 202.4 million USD. The number of young artists participating in auctions has significantly increased. Interestingly, in the ultra-contemporary art field on the Artsy platform, the proportion of male and female artists is 56.1% and 43.6%, respectively (the remainder being unclassified). In all categories of

[ ART & INVESTMENT ]

artists, the proportion of male and female artists is 88.24% and 9.39%, respectively. However, when narrowing the scope to artists born after 1985 (including 1985), there is a "reversal" in the proportion, with female artists reaching 63.8%, significantly surpassing the proportion of male artists.

In Taiwan, gender equality is relatively well protected and respected, and there is not a significant wage gap between male and female staff in the art industry. It can be said that the status of women in the art scene in Taiwan is no less than that of men. Research has shown that, disregarding the information on the walls, the delicate thinking and aesthetic sense of female artists often have the ability to instantly capture the attention and favorability of collectors. As the world continues to progress, we are pleased to witness advancements in society and institutions. When appreciating or collecting artworks, ▲

it is important to prioritize artistic value and the ability to resonate with viewers, without considering gender as a factor.

In the "SELECT" specialized session of the Ravenel Spring Auction 2023, which I was in charge of, we curated the largest collection of works by female artists ever consigned, accounting for over one-third of the total. With the art world becoming increasingly receptive, we can aspire to achieve a future where the representation of male and female artists is more balanced. We eagerly await the realization of that day.

童心未泯小宇宙－元永定正

The Enchanting Cosmos of Sadamasa Motonaga: Exploring His Whimsical and Childlike Paintings

「根據我的觀察，你（元永定正）早期的作品給我一種墜落感， 後期作品卻充滿上升感。」－河合隼雄（Kawai Hayao） As Kawai Hayao comments, in a personal conversation with M o t o n a g a : " A c c o rd i n g t o m y i n t u i t i o n , e a r l i e r s t a g e s o f y o u r work give me the feeling of going down and the [later] style gives me a feeling rather of going up" (Motonaga Sadamasa, q u o t e d i n S a d a m a s a M o t o n a g a : Wo r k s 1 9 5 5 - 1 9 8 9 , p . 3 9 ) .

元永定正 1922 年出生於日本三重縣，早期為報社雜誌創作卡通和插畫， 1955 年受到吉原治良邀請正式加入日本當代藝術團體「具體美術協會」（具 體派）。元永定正於 1956 年創作的戶外裝置作品《水》，體現其早期創作 以行為藝術、裝置作品互相融合的實驗性質，並宣示與自然密不可分的創 作精神。該作分別於 2009 年威尼斯雙年展，與 2013 年紐約古根漢美術館 舉辦之《具體：燦爛的遊樂場》展出。1959 年起元永定正使用日本傳統繪 畫技法「溜込」（たらしこみ－ tarashikomi），發展出「滴落式」繪畫法， 利用油彩、壓克力顏料的濃厚質地，滴落在畫布上，使未乾透的色彩層層 堆疊交融，並受引力牽引流淌出不定形的玄妙抽象繪畫。「我把作品託付 於自然之力，並藉此方法創造出獨一無二的畫作。」元永定正如此說道。 1966-1967 年間，元永定正與藝術家伴侶中辻悦子女士赴紐約參與為期 一年的藝術駐留計畫，他開始掌握噴漆繪畫的技巧，受到硬邊藝術（PostPaintering Abstraction）啟發，創造出全新風格。新穎的噴繪技巧間接影響 其他具體派成員，如白髮一雄、前川強也運用了相同的媒材。造型上元永定 正排除抽象表現主義的情緒、個性化線條，以明確平滑的大色面造型進行創 作，並且賦予其飽滿亮麗的漸層色調，型塑出溫潤圓滑，視覺向上延伸的弧 型圖像，有時更像是簡化的人形輪廓或草履蟲圖型。離開具體派後元永重回 插畫及兒童繪本的創作，1980 年代先後出版繪本《Moko Moko Moko》、 《麗莎重生》等出版物備受好評。繪本時期的作品，以童趣的亮麗色彩和積 木般的幾何圖型帶來趣味性組合。畫作《紅色，紅色與紅色四方形》在柔和 的白底，疊加豔紅、螢光黃、活力橙等多種飽和色彩，令人聯想對色域藝 術相互輝映的趣味性，而簡化如機械手臂、海底生物的造型，想像力十足。 藝術家天真具有幽默感的個性，直接而溫柔地傳遞給不同的觀眾。類似卡 通漫畫的構圖，圓滿藝術家青年時代成為漫畫家的夢想。元永定正把自己 幽默的稱為「傻瓜派（aho ha）」，並把自己的作品叫做「滑稽藝術」。 2011 年元永定正逝世，2013 年紐約古根漢美術館大展至今逾十年， 而當時《水》透過天窗日光煥發的繽紛光彩依然深植人心，也是藝術家親 手設計最後留給大眾的禮物。2015 至 2020 年間拍賣市場交易活絡，持續 創下藝術家個人紀錄，截至目前最高紀錄則是 2017 年香港拍賣的成交價港

Sadamasa Motonaga was born in 1922 in Mie Prefecture, Japan. In his early career, he created cartoons and illustrations for newspapers and magazines. In 1955, he was invited by Yoshihara Jiro to join the Japanese contemporary art group "Gutai" (Gutai movement). In 1956, Motonaga created the outdoor installation artwork "Water," which reflected his early experimentation with the fusion of performance art and installation works, emphasizing the inseparable connection between art and nature. The artwork was exhibited at the 2009 Venice Biennale and the 2013 Guggenheim Museum's exhibition "Gutai: Splendid Playground." Starting from 1959, Motonaga began using the traditional Japanese painting technique called "tarashikomi" and developed the "dripping" painting method. He utilized the thick texture of oil and acrylic paints, allowing them to drip onto the canvas, creating layers of colors that blended together as they flowed under the influence of gravity, resulting in abstract and enigmatic paintings. "I consciously used this approach as a way of entrust[ing] it to the power of nature" (Motonaga Sadamasa in an interview conducted by Osaki Shin'ichiro and Yamamura Tokutaro, August 21, 1985).

who also utilized the same medium. In terms of form, Motonaga diverged from the emotional and individualized lines of Abstract Expressionism. Instead, he created works with clearly defined, smooth, large areas of color, giving them a rich and vibrant gradient tone. He shaped these forms into gentle and smooth curves that visually extend upward, sometimes resembling simplified human figures or patterns of caterpillars.

Sadamasa Motonaga passed away in 2011, and since then, over ten years have passed since the Guggenheim exhibition. However, his artwork "Water," with its vibrant colors radiating through skylights, continues to deeply resonate with people. It remains the final gift that the artist personally designed for the public.

"We are lucky compared to those who just entered the world of whisky! Many of them may not even have the chance to try Hakushu 12 Years Old." M is quite optimistic about it.

Yes, the price of whisky has gone up drastically over the past decade. Many daily drink whiskies have become "collectibles" or even "investments."

Auction Houses, as representatives of the secondary market, have long been aware of the potential that take whisky as collectibles. Around year 2000, Sotheby's and Christie's began to intersperse a few whisky lots in their wine auctions. In 2009, Bonhams was the first to hold an auction primarily for whisky, and by 2015, whisky auction has accounted for more than half of the overall revenue of the wine department. Ravenel from Taiwan quickly followed suit and opened the whisky category in 2013.

The sector has quickly grown from millions of revenues to over 30 million per auction with over 100 collectors participating.

UK's largest online whisky auction platform, whiskyauctioneer. com, also joined the fray in 2013, and its monthly online auctions now consistently attract the attention and participation of whisky enthusiasts from all over the world. After many years of contemplation, Sotheby's and Christie's finally established whisky departments in 2018 and 2019 respectively and are actively deploying their whisky auction strategies.

The involvement of auction houses has allowed more people to see the potential of whisky as collectibles and investment choices. Behind the thriving secondary market and the continuous setting of new high records, it represents that more and more people believe that whisky has become a collectible that worth pursuing, and even a profitable alternatives investment commodity rather than simply a choice of drinking.

The price increase is staggering. On the other hand, the first Macallan

"Speaking of the biggest price increase in the past decade, it should be Macallan, right?" K took a sip and asked. "You see, when the Macallan 12 Years Old Gran Reserva was first released, it cost only a bit over 1,000 per bottle. Now, even the cheapest version costs at least 10,000, which is an increase of over ten times! A 12-years-old whisky is already beyond the reach of us the petite bourgeoisie."

Lalique, the 50 Years Old, was released at USD$5,995 and NTD$188,888 at the Airport in Taiwan in 2005, but certainly not a favorable choice back then. Who would have imagined that it sored up to NTD5.4 million at Ravenel Auction in 2020 several years later.

silently in the distillery cellar for more than 40 years, from which they launched the oldest Brora. With only 160 bottles in existence and its exceptional rarity, the well-known whisky review website Whiskyfun's author Serge Valentin also gave Brora 40 Years Old an extremely high score of 98 points out of 100, describing it as a whisky with utter perfection. Today, Brora 40 Years Old has surpassed its original price of GBP6,995 and achieved a price of over 12 million New Taiwan Dollar in the secondary market. Besides 40 Years Old, Diageo has been released annual special release edition of Brora since 2002, mostly 30 Years Old. The price of the first edition that released in 2002 was set at GBP150 (about NTD7,500), and today it can fetch a price of over NTD70,000, an increase of nearly ten times. It is worth mentioning that the quality of the whisky from its sister distillery, Clynelish, has also been praised by

Therefore, it is essential for any whisky enthusiasts to clarify one's goals, whether they are purely for drinking, collecting, or investment. If the focus is on investment, it is important to avoid impulsive decisions, same as in investing stock or any other financial products, even though the whisky market as a whole is growing. It is also crucial to understand that the success of any whisky is not determined by a single factor. For example, just because Japanese whiskyies are flourishing doesn't mean that every Japanese whisky brand is worth your attention. By deciding the direction and system of your collection, even if adjustments are required to be made in the future and there may be seemingly wrong attempts, because they are based on your own principles, there's no need to lament, "If only I had known."

collectors. However, the Official Bottling products are extremely limited, and only one core product, 1 14 Years Old, is currently available in the market. Without a representative product to define the distillery's marketvalue for collectors, even with packaging redesign, it has not been able to achieve the same price appreciation as older version of 10 Years Old or 30 Years Old Macallan bottlings.

"Fortunately, the price haven't skyrocketed, at least we can still drink Clynelish while reminiscing about Brora." M thought optimistically. "But it does remind me of the surge in Springbank prices two years ago. It seems to have stabilized now, thought, doesn't it?"

"Yes! I wanted to buy a bottle of Springbank last year and I was so surprised to find that the 10 Years Old was already close to NTD5,000."

K chimed in.

The Springbank Distillery from Campbeltown is also regarded as a representative of high-quality whiskyies by many whisky enthusiasts.

Although it hasn't garnered as much attention as Macallan or Brora in recent years, it has quietly been steadily rising in the secondary market.

Springbank Local Barley 1966 has been recognized as a must-drink choice on many whisky lovers' bucket lists, demonstrating its exceptional quality. In 2014, its price in the auction market was around NTD30,000 to NTD40,000. Now, certain Sherry aged editions have exceeded NTD500,000, and Bourbon editions reaching NTD100,000.

[ LUXURY ] 在收藏與鑑賞的過程中還能因此而獲利肯定是能讓每個鐘錶 玩家欣喜的事，光是看著自己的收藏行情越來越漂亮，心裡就會 有一種難以言喻的自豪與竊喜。目前來看，市面上熱度最高具有 如此增值能力的款式毫無疑問是不鏽鋼運動錶，然而在大家都知 道這個事實的情況下，要入手這些熱門款不僅難度高，成本也相 當可觀。那麼，還有哪些類型的錶款也具備類似的潛力呢？ 就羅芙奧精品部長期觀察鐘錶拍賣市場來看，多年下來還是 高階複雜功能最歷久不衰。由於高階功能結構複雜，製作難度高， 因此各大錶廠產量都非常少，例如百達翡麗的一只三問報時腕錶 要耗時半年至一年才能出廠，而工廠裡只有十多位夠資格負責處 理複雜功能的製錶師，可想而知每年產量也不過就二三十只。物 以稀為貴，與時下備受炒作的不鏽鋼運動錶相比，三問報時、追 針計時、萬年曆或陀飛輪，又或是集多種功能於一身的大複雜腕 錶行情更不容易受到大環境影響，既不會大起大落，停產後身價 甚至還會穩定上升。

頂級功能如追針計時或陀飛輪等由於結構複雜，製作難度極高，產量也相當少。 Due to the complex mechanisms, high-end complications such as split-seconds chronograph and tourbillon are rather difficult to assemble, thus the production is low.

百達翡麗Ref. 5740/1G，複雜功能多搭配貴金屬錶殼，長期來看亦具保值潛力。 Patek Philippe Ref. 5740/1G, grand complication cased in precious metal shows the potential to retain its value.

講 到 複 雜 功 能 就 不 能 不 提 百 達 翡 麗 了，1932 年 為 美 國 金 融 鉅 子 Henry Graves Jr. 所做的超複雜懷錶雄霸最複雜時計數十年，直到 1989 年再由百達翡麗自己推出 Cal. 89，以多達 33 項功能再度稱雄，膾炙人 口的故事樹立了百達翡麗複雜之王的形象。在其現行款式中，萬年曆計 時腕錶可說是最受歡迎的組合，畢竟品牌早在 1941 年就是史上第一款 量產的萬年曆計時腕錶，具代表性意義。現行的 Ref. 5204 和 Ref. 5270 便延續著這份價值，備受藏家推崇。 除了百達翡麗外，寶璣也素以複雜錶款聞名。不僅是發明陀飛輪的 始祖，寶璣還曾幫拿破崙、瑪麗皇后等歷史名人製作各種複雜作品，加 入 Swatch 集團後有了龐大資源加持，近年更以矽材質為基礎發展出不 同創新功能。而來自德國的朗格也在 1994 年浴火重生之後急起直追， 其中 Datograph 突破以往窠臼，打造出可瞬跳的計時分針，更帶起了頂 級品牌自製計時機芯的風潮。朗格還不定時推出 Handwerkskunst 系列， 以極精細金雕工藝搭配芝麻鏈、陀飛輪，甚至打簧報時等頂級功能，限 量生產的訂單每一次都在正式發表前就被頂級 VIP 訂滿了，也是資深 藏家尋尋覓覓的目標。 複雜的機械結構意味著需要更多的手工調校與打磨，細膩度更上一 層樓。鐘錶買賣的趨勢會受消費者品味影響，雖然目前不鏽鋼運動錶人 氣較高，但未來幾年藏家世代改變後，品味也可能會有變化，而無論經 過多少年，複雜精緻的手工藝都可以被任何世代的藏家欣賞，並懂得體 會其價值。此外，頂級品牌的複雜功能多搭配貴金屬錶殼，而金價只升 不跌，貴金屬錶款的價值始終都能維持基本盤，更適合長期收藏。 45

由寶璣所發明的陀飛輪是最受藏家青睞的頂級複雜功能之一。 Tourbillon invented by Breguet is one of the most coveted high-end complications.

It is an absolute delight to make a profit from forming a collection.

Collectors would lick their chops and have a feeling of pride when they learn that the values of their own collections keep getting higher. For the time being, sports watches made of steel are without doubts the most popular choice with potentials of value growth we are discussing.

Nevertheless, this is a fact that everyone knows, which makes it a lot more difficult and costly to get one of these hot pieces. In that case, what else category of watches presents the same potential as sports watches?

Ravenel Luxury Division has paid close attention to the watch auction market for years and notices that the high-end complications are still an enduring investment. Due to the complex mechanisms in complications, production capacity of each manufacturer is rather low.

A minute repeater from Patek Philippe, for instance, takes six months to a year to be finished. And there are just around 15 watchmakers in the manufacture who are qualified to work on such complications. Therefore, the brand can only produce 20 to 30 pieces each year. The rarer the more expensive, compared to steel sports watches, minute repeater, splitseconds chronograph, perpetual calendar, and tourbillon, or the grande complication which incorporates various functions are more resistant to economic slump. They do not get greatly affected, even more, they become more valuable when they are discontinued.

「我想以不那麼傳統的方式，將更多視覺體驗放在一起， 讓年輕觀眾以及對大師畢卡索 Pablo Picasso 作品 不是很了解的觀眾，可以平易近人的近距離接觸。」 英國時裝設計師 Paul Smith

應邀擔任畢卡索（Pablo Picasso）逝世 50 週年 紀念策展藝術總監， 嘗試以獨特的時尚視角重現大師傳世傑作。

57

1973 年離世至今己五十年，畢卡索對整個 20 世紀產生 深遠的影響。巴黎畢卡索美術館（Musée Picasso）特別邀 請以色彩與創意聞名的時尚的保羅爺爺 Paul Smith 擔任特 展藝術總監，重現一代宗師極為宏觀的又親密的藝術連結。 畢卡索美術館典藏五千多幅作品，幾乎涵蓋藝術家從 繪畫、雕塑、素描、雕刻到陶瓷等多元的創意。如果加上 畢卡索個人珍藏物品，估計逾兩萬個物件，可以說完整揭 示了畢卡索曠世傑作，對當代藝術深具影響的總和。

畢卡索美術館館長 Cecile DeBray 與 Paul Smith 合作策劃的 特展旨在有系統地回顧，更希望透過時尚的當代眼界重新審視 這些原創傑作，不但凸顯畢卡索在藝術史上歷久不衰的創作力， 進而從匯集兩位藝術家對於物件、時尚和高度引人注目的創意， 同時感受他們對於藝術多元化解讀生命的熱愛。 展覽中藉由包括 Guillermo Kuitca、Obi Okigbo、Mickalene Thomas 和 Chéri Samba 等，汲取畢卡索為根基而發展出當代創 作的國際藝術家作品。巴黎畢卡索美術館館長 Cécile Debray 說： 「充滿俏皮而歡愉的嘗試，通過時尚創意敏銳而幽默甚至調皮 的眼光，重新詮釋並延伸畢卡索創作的時代性。」誠然，藝術 試圖以不同觀點看待世界並提出質疑，畢卡索當之無愧。

每年，超過 1 億隻動物因皮毛而死亡。「時裝太多皮革、羽毛 和毛皮，尤其是冬天，我只是想證明時尚可以不必殺生。」英 倫時尚設計師 Stella McCartney 力行「零殘忍」不採用動物 皮草的創意下，沒有任何動物因此而被殺，為時尚圈「環保」 先鋒的最佳典範。

七匹未繫韁繩的白馬疾馳著，長長地揚起的銀色鬃毛，純粹的生命力 吸引每個人。 「馬是鏡子，它們讓我腳踏實地；與馬的聯繫有助於重新與自己連結， 不會迷路。」對於身為素食主義者的服裝設計師 Stella McCartney，她和 母親、姐姐及一家人，懷抱著始終相信人與動物之間和諧的關係；馬更 是她們生命中很重要的一部分……。 每年，超過 1 億隻動物因皮毛而死亡。「時裝太多皮革、羽毛 和毛皮，尤其是冬天，我只是想證明可以不必殺生。」英國時尚 設計師 Stella McCartney 2023 成衣系列採用 92% 可持續性材 料製成，是有史以來最具環保意識的一個冬季。 從英國人衣櫃裡和馬術與狩獵有關的尋找靈感：「男 人和女人、馬和自然之間的關係，成為 Stella McCartney 設計上的一種詩意。」將馬術語言應用到時尚，像輕薄 騎兵夾外套、短款背心及馬術文化的解構牛仔套裝，令 人想起她在 Chloé 時代注入馬具聯想的低腰褲和馬匹的 印花，而這些記憶得以在連衣裙和針織品中延續，使 得她自己的時尚品牌時充滿了激情。 倫敦薩維爾街 (Savile Row) 手工訂製西服街，引 領冬季女裝，有著漂亮剪裁的薑黃色調英國格紋西裝 外套，裝飾著馬毯的花格圖案，還有收腰的狩獵夾克； 為了向家族歷史致敬，McCartney 在晚禮服和襯衫上 選用了母親和姐姐的馬匹攝影作品。 McCartney 笑著說：「我的服裝設計沒有殺死任 何東西，大家和睦相處。」除了服飾，採用最先進的「可 持續性」材料，取代動物皮革製成手袋更是 Stella 獨家熱門 商品：一種以植物為基礎、無塑料和循環材料的替代品； AppleSkin™，；使用食品行業的蘋果廢料製成仿鱷魚皮革 的手提包；白色的 Frayme Mylo™，是蘑菇菌絲體材料第 一次，也是唯一一次有黑色以外可選的「皮」包。 這些令人想起「環保，沒有人是局外人」這句話；顯然， 力行「零殘忍」的 Stella McCartney 早己一「馬」當先成為圈內最佳 時尚先鋒。

台灣人好色；BVLGARI 寶格麗，正中下懷。

話說「羅馬、色彩、自然」寶格麗 BVLGARI 珠寶

最重要的三大 DNA：無一不與色彩有關。

63

根基於深厚羅馬文化淵源，頌歌壯麗自然建築、 揮灑歡愉色彩、盛放古希臘文明美學的 BVLGARI 寶 格麗，在頂級珠寶界更以「靈蛇」、「扇形構圖」和 「古幣設計」等，既經典又深具特色的風格開創出屬 於自己的一條創意之路。 BVLGARI 對寶石色澤和切割品味獨特，在頂級 珠寶界獨樹一格。清透活力的粉紅碧璽、深邃性感的 紅玉髓、有著特殊礦石紋路及翠綠色澤的孔雀石、藍 色大海般的綠松石………更不能錯過大地色彩能量之 源，瑰麗的祖母綠。

《蛋面切》，獨具色相 秉持一貫對寶石強烈執著和創新精神，光彩 奪目、曲線優美的，呼應羅馬建築的壯觀圓頂的 「蛋面型」切割，藉以保留住寶石最完美且飽和 色相是 BVLGARI 珠寶關鍵。延伸自羅馬的古蹟 和建築瑰寶的靈感泉源，一整列，或煙花四射， 或大小漸層排列的彩寶，仿如無窮綻放的花園， 大膽鮮豔的色彩組合，透過豐富且現代感的寶石 詮釋，令人回味的色彩展現寶格麗富麗的「伊甸 奇蹟花園」，擠身世界頂級珠寶之列的奢華實力。

64

[ LUXURY ]

《蛇》，「伊甸花園」繆斯 「 𩆜 蛇 」， 一 如「 伊 甸 花 園 」 無 窮 綻 放 生 命 力 的 繆 斯， 絕 對 是 BVLGARI 寶格麗唯美奇蹟的領路者。 由於文化及民族淵源的差異，許多象徵意義大不同。蛇在東西方神話 或歴史追溯上是有著非常不同的想像。但若要認識「寶格麗」BVLGARI 這個義大利頂級珠寶，從魅惑神秘的蛇形會是一條追尋線索…… 古 希 臘 及 羅 馬 神 話。 象 徵 著 智 慧、 生 命 力 及 魅 力， 蜷 伏 於 人 文 歷 史之魅惑的「靈蛇」某種程度，成就了寶格麗珠寶迷人傑作。Serpenti Viper 指向代表品牌精神的靈蛇致敬，以精細華美而炫目設計展現蛇鱗感 性曲線和魅惑力量。環繞在手指或脖子上的蛇形，與其說是散發魅惑的 焦點，對寶格麗來說更是，打破傳統、突破想像界限，讓美麗成為獨特、 神秘和勇敢代名詞的經典。

65

《埃及豔后》，倒三角眼妝 李察波頓曾說過：「BVLGARI 寶格麗是伊莉莎白泰勒認 識的第一個義大利字。」 品 牌 具 代 表 的「Divas' Dream」 扇 型 設 計 初 始 靈 感 與 美 學，有一說法是出自伊莉莎白泰勒主演《埃及豔后》，那雙 勾勒著倒三角如扇般的眼妝。 但如果去過波蘭知名的露天浴場，見識了源自古羅馬時 期最奢靡、浮華代表的「卡拉卡拉浴場」孔雀開屏的馬賽克 地磚，對於寶格麗取法於此，象徵義大利文化及羅馬精神的 「扇形」標誌性設計，搖曳生姿的動態美，予人無限想像空間。

66

[ LUXURY ]

《古幣》，蒐一個少一個 寶格麗其 logo 商標設計即為古幣弧形銘文中汲取靈感， 對珠寶內行人而言，BVLGARI 的古幣設計為現代優雅與古老 文化之融合，而且不論是那時期的古幣人頭，用掉一個就少一 個的骨董，亦是買手不容錯失的珠寶傑作。 看懂了門道，BVLGARI 寶格麗富饒的「伊甸花園」珠寶 盛宴又那裡豈是總值 80 億台幣，一句場面話所能表達於萬一？
