不同藝術間某種互相認同的關聯的質素,彷彿那一瞬間,一張畫、一件雕塑正欲發聲為話語。──美國詩人龐德(Ezra Pound, 1885-1972)

作為城市漫遊的攝影者,葉灼走訪各地,以其靈視的眼光,瞬間凝住喧鬧世界於一格,使生活中「既熟悉又陌生、既真實又奇幻的」影像/映象再現;而行遍天下,以比較文學理論馳名國際的葉維廉,生命中的觸動,總湧為詩文。父子二人雖異,卻又同——在尋索生命歸屬的過程中,在工業化絞動文化的陣痛中,雖熟識/陌生交錯,傳統/現代錯位——卻均「在緊張壓迫的變化中兀然獨立,在某種天平上游離其間」。而,這樣的游離,對讀者,並不陌生。

From 80+ evocative photographs, pregnant high visions, come poetic echoes of measured pulses and impulses. Two artists, father and son, engaging in a cross-cultural, multi-generational dialogue with rhythmic, vital energy, tracing for the reader an odyssey of cultural and living complexes, explore the push-and-pull interactions between poetry's linguistic signs (seething images in the heart/mind) and photography's visual signs. We experience in this gap what American poet Ezra Pound called the “inter-recognition” between arts, “where paintings or sculptures seem", as it were, “just coming over to speech.”

作者簡介:

葉灼(Jonas Yip)

葉灼在公共場所出現時,很少看見他兩手空空的,手上總是拿著一兩個照相機。出生於紐澤西州的普林斯頓,父親是詩人—作家—教授,母親專攻藝術史,他在一個創作的環境裡成長,長年浸淫在藝術、詩、演出、設計、建築和周遊世界的自然人文風景裡。可是,不知怎的,他變成一個工程師,在矽谷突然竄起的公司、高科技的新興公司裡建造他的事業,設計微電腦資料處理裝置,硬體網路聯絡系統,發展e-商業網站,或當網路技術顧問。這些年來,他從未間斷過創作激情的追尋:音樂、設計、攝影。葉灼已經離開高科技世界而全神貫注在小型的,合乎個人心思的計畫,錄製音樂並與許多樂隊發表音樂,合作出書,包括限定版,或藝術、音樂、寫作、攝影套式合作計畫,磨鍊他獨特的美術攝影的靈視。

Jonas Yip is a fine art photographer and musician based in the Los Angeles area. Born in Princeton, New Jersey to a poet-writer-professor father and an art historian mother, Jonas was raised in a creative environment steeped in art and music, poetry and performance, design and architecture, and plenty of world travel. Yet somehow Jonas became an engineer, building a successful career in Silicon Valley startup companies. Over the years, however, he never stopped pursuing his creative passions: music, design, and photography. Jonas has since left the high-tech world to concentrate exclusively on these smaller, more personal projects.

Jonas has been honored with numerous photography awards and his work has been exhibited internationally. Following the publication of the first edition of this book, Paris: Dialogues and Meditations (Nanjing University Press, 2008), an exhibition of photographs and poems excerpted from the book traveled through Taiwan, China and Hong Kong and was also exhibited at the San Diego Museum of Art and the University of California, San Diego. The photographs and poems from the series have been accepted into the permanent collections at the San Diego Museum of Art in San Diego, CA and the National Museum of Chinese Literature in Beijing, China.
