Bullock carts in long caravans arrived late in the evening from distant villages, loaded with coconut, rice, and other commodities for th

2、e market. The animals were unyoked under the big tamarind tree for the night, and the cartmen drifted in twos and threes to the shop, for a chat or to ask for things to eat or smoke. How my father loved to discuss with them the price of grain, rainfall, harvest, and the state of irrigation channels!

3、 Or they talked about old litigations. One heard repeated references to magistrates, affidavits, witnesses in the case, and appeals, punctuated with roars of laughters possibly the memory of some absurd legality or loophole tickled them. My father ignored food and sleep when he had company. My mothe

4、r sent me out several times to see if he could be made to turn in. He was a man of uncertain temper and one could not really guess how he would react to interruptions, and so my mother coached me to go up, watch his mood, and gently remind him of food and home. I stood under the shop awning, coughin

5、g and clearing my throat, hoping to catch his eyes. But the talk was all-absorbing and he would not glance in my direction, and I got absorbed in their talk, although I did not understand a word of it.

6、nterrupted his activities to look at me and say, “Tell your mother not to wait for me.

7、s added, “Not that Im really hungry tonight. “ And then I believe he went on to discuss health problems with his cronies. But I didnt stop to hear further. I made a quick dash back home.

8、 matter of about ten yards, I suppose, but the passage through it gave me a cold sweat. I expected wild animals and supernatural creatures to emerge and grab me. My mother waited on the doorstop to receive me and said, “Not hungry, I suppose ! Thatll give him an excuse to talk to the village folk al

9、l night, and then come in for an hours sleep and get up with the crowing of that foolish cock somewhere. He will spoil his health. “ I followed her into the kitchen. She placed my plate and hers side by side on the floor, drew the ricepot within reach, and served me and herself simultaneously, and w

10、e finished our dinner by the sooty tin lamp, stuck on a nail in the wall. She unrolled a mat for me in the front room, and I lay down to sleep. She sat at my side, awaiting fathers return. Her presence gave me a feeling of inexplicable coziness. I felt I ought to put her proximity to good use, and c

11、omplained, “Something is bothering my hair,“ and she ran her fingers through my hair, and scratched the nape of my neck. And then I commanded, “A story. “ Immediately she began, “Once upon a time there was a man called Devaka. “ I heard his name mentioned almost every night. He was a hermit, saint,

12、or something of the kind.

But, the 68-year-old American didnt pick up a camera himself and start shooti

18、ng until he moved to Berlin in 1995 and once he did, he couldnt stop. The result is a voluminous collection of images, ranging from early-20th-century-style heliogravures to modern-day digital printings, a selection of which are on exhibition at the Maison Europenne de la Photographie in Paris. They

19、 are among his most prized achievements. “I make photographs the way I make paintings, “says Dine, “but the difference is, in photography. Its like lighting a fire every time. “ Though photography makes up a small slice of Dines vast oeuvre, the exhibit is a true retrospective, of his career. Dine m

20、ostly photographs his own artwork or the subjects that he has portrayed in sculpture, painting and prints including Venus de Milo, ravens and owls, hearts and skulls. There are still pictures of well-used tools in his Connecticut workshop, delightful digital self-portraits and intimate portraits of

21、his sleeping wife, the American photographer Diana Michener. Most revealing and novel are Dines shots of his poetry, scribbled in charcoal on walls like graffiti. To take in this show is to wander through Dines life: his childhood obsessions, his loves, his dreams. It is a poignant and powerful exhi

22、bit that rightly celebrates one of modern arts most intriguing and least hyped-talents. When he arrived on the scene in the early 1960s, Dine was seen as a pioneer in the pop-art movement. But he didnt last long; once pop stagnated, Dine moved on. “Pop art had to do with the exterior world, “ he say

23、s. He was more interested, he adds, in “what was going on inside me“. He explored his own personality, and from there developed themes. His love for handcrafting grew into a series of artworks incorporating hammers and saws. His obsession with owls and ravens came from a dream he once had. His child

24、hood toy Pinocchio, worn and chipped, appears in some self-portraits as a red and yellow blur flying through the air. Dine first dabbled in photography in the late 1970s, when Polaroid invited him to try out a new large-format camera at its head-quarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He produced a se

25、ries of colorful, out-of-focus self-portraits, and when he was done, he packed them away. A half dozen of these images in perfect condition are on display in Paris for the first time. Though masterful, they feel flat when compared with his later pictures. Dine didnt shoot again until he went to Berl

26、in in the mid-90s to teach. By then he was ready to embrace photography completely. Michener was his guide: “She opened my eyes to what was possible,“ he says. “Her approach is so natural and classic. I listened. “ When it came time to print what he had photographed, Dine chose heliogravure, the old

27、 style of printing favored by Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Curtis and Paul Strand, which gives photographs a warm tone and an almost hand drawn look like Dines etchings. He later tried out the traditional black-and-white silver-gelatin process, then digital photography and jet-ink printing, which he ado

28、res. At the same time, Dine immersed himself into Jungian psychoanalysis. That, in conjunction with his new artistic tack, proved cathartic. “The access photography that gives you to your subconscious is so fantastic,“ he says. “Ive learned how to bring these images out like a stream of consciousnes

29、s something thats not possible in the same way in drawing or painting because technique always gets in your way. “ This is evident in the way he works: when Dine shoots, he leaves things alone. Eventually, Dine turned the camera on himself. His self-portraits are disturbingly personal; he opens hims

30、elf physically and emotionally before the lens. He says such pictures are an attempt to examine himself as well as “record the march of time, what gravity does to the face in everybody. Im a very willing subject. “ Indeed, Dine sees photography as the surest path to serf discovery. “Ive always learn

31、ed about myself in my art,“ he says. “But photography expresses me. Its me. Me. “ The Paris exhibit makes that perfectly clear. 6 According the Dine, the difference between painting and photography is that ( A) the latter requires more insight. ( B) the former needs more patience. ( C) the latter ar

32、ouses great passions in him. ( D) the former involves more indoor work. 7 The word “oeuvre“ in the second paragraph probably means ( A) all the works of an artist.
