THE object in question is really just a very largegranite boulder. It weighs 340 tons and is the sizeof a house. It sat unappreciated in a Californiaquarry until Michael Heizer, an artist, spotted it.He decided to haul the rock to a museum in LosAngeles, in order to suspend it so that visitorscould walk through a small channel underneath itand ponder the menace above.
争论中的物体真的是个非常巨大的花岗岩圆石,重340吨,有一座房子那么大。在艺术家迈克尔黑泽尔发现它以前,它一直默默无闻的躺在加利福尼亚的一座采石场里。迈克尔想把这块巨石拖运到洛杉矶的一座博物馆里,在那里将它悬起来,让游客穿过其下的一条窄窄的通道,来感受头上的重物威胁。
Mr Heizer is not just any arty weirdo. Since the 1960s he has been a pioneer of earth art. Inone project, which has engrossed him since 1972, he has been carving a vast city into thedesert of Nevada . Artistically, he enjoys the negativespaces his art creates. Personally, he likes living as a hermit in the desert.
黑泽尔先生不仅仅是个艺术怪胎。从20世纪60年代开始,他就是地景艺术的先驱。他曾全身心的投入到一个项目中,从1972年开始,他就一直在莫哈维沙漠挖掘一座巨大的城市。从艺术上讲,他享受自己艺术创造出来的负空间。而就他自己而言,他喜欢像一位隐士那样住在荒芜的沙漠。
