文字稿
It’s a vibrant world of colour. Sun-soaked Californian pools through to grey Yorkshire skies. Those glasses, the mop of blond hair… David Hockney is instantly recognisable – a brightly coloured star of British art for more than 50 years. And this is his life in paint. It’s certainly comprehensive – in fact, one of the first things that strikes you is just how big this exhibition is. There it is: 13 rooms; 200 works of art; 57 years. It’s a life spent looking, thinking, puzzling about that most basically artistic problem: how to capture what we see…
這些作品代表一個色彩鮮活的世界。從沐浴在加利福尼亞陽光下的游泳池到英國約克郡的灰色天空，應(yīng)有盡有。人們可以從這副眼鏡和這頭濃密的金發(fā)等特征立刻認(rèn)出他就是大衛(wèi)·霍克尼，五十多年來，他一直是活躍在英國藝術(shù)界的一位閃亮的明星。該展覽以繪畫的形式呈現(xiàn)了他的人生。這些展品確實包羅萬象，其實此展覽給參觀者留下的最初印象之一就是其龐大的規(guī)模，包括13間展廳，200件藝術(shù)品和57年的創(chuàng)作歷程?；艨四嵋簧铝τ谟^察、思考并追問那道最為基本的藝術(shù)難題：如何捕捉眼前的事物……
These actors have taken on an almighty task. Not only is this play a difficult one to get right, there’s the added complexity that comes with making a production accessible. This play – The House of Bernarda Alba, by Lorca – features an all-female and pretty much all-deaf-and-disabled cast. When it comes to physical access, Manchester’s Royal Exchange is sorted. Lifts and ramps are already part of the theatre. But to help deaf audience members, screens are being put up and changes to the script will help blind people understand the action.
這些演員接受了一項重大任務(wù)。該話劇不僅僅很難掌控關(guān)鍵要點，而且為了讓更多觀眾理解其內(nèi)容，編排的難度大大加深。話劇《貝爾納達(dá)·阿爾瓦之家》由西班牙作家加西亞·洛爾卡創(chuàng)作而成，演員均為女性，且?guī)缀跞敲@人或殘疾人。英國曼徹斯特皇家交易所劇院已經(jīng)為有需要的人準(zhǔn)備好了直接、便利的出入通道。升降電梯和輪椅坡道是劇院原有設(shè)施的一部分，但為方便聾人觀眾欣賞表演，工作人員安裝了屏幕，而對原劇本的改編則能幫助盲人觀眾更好地理解故事的情節(jié)。
