山姆:他們是不是要節食啊?
Betty: Of course, I’m sure you haven’t seen a fat ballet dancer。
貝蒂:是啊,你沒見過長得胖的芭蕾舞者吧。
Sam: Oh, no, that’s a really hard job。
山姆:呵呵,沒見過,那還真是一個辛苦的職業。
Betty: Not really, for people who love to dance, they won’t feel hard。
貝蒂:那倒不一定,有的人就很喜歡舞蹈,他們就不會覺得辛苦了。
Sam: Ah, you’re right。
山姆:嗯,說得也對。

1現代藝術和繪畫的起源
The roots of Modern art are based in the art works produced during the period around 1860s to the 1970s。 The term Modern Art denoted the style and approach to the art produced during that era。 The term Modern Art is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation。 Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art。 A tendency toward abstraction is characteristic of much modern art。 Today many of the artists who exhibit at Red Rag Bath Art Gallery carry on this modern art tradition。
Although modern sculpture and architecture are believed to have emerged at the end of the nineteenth century, the beginnings of modern painting took place before。 The birth of modern art is generally attributed as 1863, when édouard Manet exhibited his painting Le déjeuner sur l’herbe in the Salon des Refusés in Paris。 The pioneers of modern art were Romantics, Realists and Impressionists。 By the late 19th century, additional art movements which were to be influential in modern art had begun to emerge。 These included: post-Impressionism as well as Symbolism。
Influences upon these art movements were varied: from exposure to Eastern decorative arts, particularly Japanese printmaking, to the coloristic innovations of Turner and Delacroix, to a search for more realism in the depiction of common life, as found in the art work of painters such as Jean-Fran?ois Millet。 The advocates of realism stood against the idealism of the tradition-bound academic art that enjoyed public and official favor。
The most successful painters of the day worked either through commissions or through large public art exhibitions of their own work。 There were official, government-sponsored painters’ unions, while governments regularly held public exhibitions of new fine and decorative arts。
Artists of the Impressionist period believed that people do not see objects but only the light which they reflect。 They therefore argued that painters should paint in natural light rather than in studios and should capture the effects of light in their work。 Red Rag Bath Art Gallery artists who still follow this approach include: David Atkins, Jeremy Barlow, David Farren, John Kingsleyand Bruce Yardley。
