Contemporary artists in India are having a conversation with the world

印度當代藝術家與世界交流的方式

I thought it might be interesting, even for the many long-time

collectors here with us at TED, local collectors,

這是一件很有趣的事 ，讓TED長期的

to have an outside view of 10 young Indian artists

有機會了解10位年輕印度藝術家的背景

我希望TED的觀眾同樣能認識他們

首先要介紹的是巴爾第‧克爾（Bharti Kher）

that untold millions of Indian women apply to their foreheads,

every day, in an act closely associated with

也就是無數印度女子在額頭點上的紅痣

But originally the significance of the bindi

between the spiritual world and the religious world.

Bharti seeks to liberate this everyday cliche, as she calls it,

by exploding it into something spectacular.

巴爾第，一直設法解脫這種普遍的刻板印象

She also creates life-size fiberglass sculptures, often of animals,

讓吉祥痣展示其驚心動魄的一面

which she then completely covers in bindis,

她也用玻璃纖維創作真人大小的雕刻品，多以動物為題材

作品完成後，巴爾第會將他貼滿吉祥痣

and then wondered what she could do with 10 thousand.

然後，她好奇一萬包吉祥痣，能創作什麼？

really stands at the crossroads of sculpture, painting and installation,

下一個藝術家是…巴拉蘇巴馬廉（Balasubramaniam)

他的創作包括雕塑、油畫、裝置藝術

Since Bala himself will be speaking at TED

I won't spend too much time on him here today,

住在紐約布魯克林的甘納許（Chitra Ganesh)

using Indian comic books called amar chitra kathas

將印度漫畫《亞瑪‧齊塔拉‧卡撒》

that children, especially in the diaspora,

learn their religious and mythological folk tales.

甘納許基本上會從新組合、從新命名

to tease out some of the sexual and gender politics

embedded in these deeply influential comics.

And she uses this vocabulary in her installation work as well.

Jitish Kallat successfully practices across photography,

and his home city of Mumbai is an ever-present element in his work.

而他居住的城市，孟買，經常出現在他的藝術作品裡

and energy which really characterizes modern urban Bombay.

He also creates phantasmagoric sculptures

of an autorickshaw he once witnessed burning in a riot.

actually has a studio right here in Mysore.

下一位藝術家，哈夏 （N.S.Harsha）

He's putting a contemporary spin on the miniature tradition.

which he then repeats on a massive scale.

He uses scale to more and more spectacular effect,

whether on the roof of a temple in Singapore,

or in his increasingly ambitious installation work,

here with 192 functioning sewing machines,

或在裝置藝術上，越來越雄心勃勃

fabricating the flags of every member of the United Nations.

在這畫面裡有192台可運行的縫紉機

正縫製每一個聯合國成員的國旗

builds on her love of comic books and street art

阿恰雅（Dhruvi Acharya)，居住在孟買

She too mines the rich source material of amar chitra kathas,

but in a very different way than Chitra Ganesh.

她也採用《亞瑪‧齊塔拉‧卡撒》這類擁有豐富題材的漫畫

In this particular work, she actually strips out the images

to reveal something previously unseen, and provocative.

揭開大家前所未見或富爭議的一面

拉齊（Raqib Shaw) 出生於加爾各答

He too is reinventing the miniature tradition.

He creates these opulent tableaus inspired by Hieronymus Bosch,

but also by the Kashmiri textiles of his youth.

受波希（Hieronymus Bosch)啟發，創作出既華麗又生動的作品

He actually applies metallic industrial paints to his work

當然，靈感也來自年少時所接觸的克什米爾紡織品

using porcupine quills to get this rich detailed effect.

I'm kind of cheating with this next artist

用豪豬刺做的筆，畫出細膩的細節

說到下一位藝術家，我有點騙了大家

Raqs are probably the foremost practitioners

working across photography, video and installation.

They frequently explore themes of globalization and urbanization,

and their home of Delhi is a frequent element in their work.

經常以探討全球化及都市化為主題

Here, they invite the viewer to analyze a crime

而所居住的城市，德里，也常常出現在作品中

在這圖裡，他們邀請觀看的人，分析犯罪現場

in five narratives on these five different screens,

in which the city itself may have been the culprit.

This next artist is probably the alpha male

其實，這城市本身或許就是兇手

of contemporary Indian art, Subodh Gupta.

下一位藝術家，算是第一把交椅

He was first known for creating giant photo-realistic canvases,

以創作類似相片的巨大油畫成名

the stainless steel kitchen vessels and tiffin containers
