1. Died in art Born in art In Dresden in 1940, Elisabeth, who loved art, sat at the piano and kept pressing her fingers on the same key. She became visibly flustered when she heard her nephew Kurt's footsteps, as she was naked and playing music at the piano naked. She knew there was both fear and curiosity in her nephew's gaze, but Elizabeth's answer to that was: "Don't look away, all that is true is beautiful". She tried to defuse the awkward meeting into a spiritual conversation. Elizabeth found the most suitable sound "la" on the piano keys, so she turned around and tapped the ashtray on the table, the sound of this ashtray was similar to "la", she tapped with her hand, Gradually became crazy, her tone of voice became more and more excited, she picked up the ashtray and smashed it on her forehead, smashing, blood dripped from her head, Kurt stood motionless, always friendly aunt, beautiful aunt Getting crazy and dangerous at the moment. What caused Elizabeth's anomaly? Not long ago, she stood in the first row of the Youth League as a youth representative and handed Hitler the flowers in her hand. Her eyes were full of admiration and respect, that's why Elizabeth came home. Fanaticism, passion, loss of control, and sincerity were all intertwined in her, and in countless others at the time. And after what she did was seen by her mother, she was inevitably sent to a mental hospital. A few years later, when his nephew Kurt, the male protagonist in the film, stepped into West Germany and came to study at the Dusseldorf Art Center, he saw that the art museum was full of students' self-interpretations of modern art. . Those who apply paint to themselves, those who roll on the ground, those who cut canvases with blades, those who collect potatoes, etc. Kurt had already become a well-known painter at that time, and he owes much to his enlightenment to art that his aunt brought him to see various art exhibitions since he was a child. It just so happened that he also has artistic talent. So when he sees these modern arts, one is understanding, and the other is happiness. Maybe he will think of his aunt who played the piano when he was a child. She behaves exactly like these modern artists. What was judged mentally ill at the time could be called an artist twenty years later. The man who dies because of art becomes eternal in Kurt's art. 2. Know Yourself "ich" Kurt has just arrived in Düsseldorf and has followed the trends in art that is very modern, very ahead of its time, but lacks real content. It can be said that form is greater than content, and his interpretation is too shallow for him. The male protagonist incorporates his own curiosity and real emotions into his creation, but he does not draw on his unique life experience, which is his unique treasure and the temperament in his bones that has been precipitated. In order to inspire Kurt, the mentor told him about his own life experience, thus explaining why he always likes to create with things like grease: the mentor was a pilot, and after the crash, kind local people took him to He went home and smeared the wound on the top of his head with grease, so he was rescued from the dying, and the people who rescued him happened to be the farmers he was going to bomb. Therefore, there is a reflection in the work of the tutor, about this war, about love and suffering, not just cutting the canvas with a knife and letting the paint on the canvas bleed. He needs Kurt to interpret himself with deeper thinking, and then transition from himself to the common question faced by mankind: why? Why in the past, what will happen in the future, why are you and me like this. 3. Aunt Elizabeth once said to Coulter, "Don't look away." When she was taken away from the mental hospital, Coulter put his hand in front of him. He stared at the palm of his hand, and there was a faint gap between his fingers. Jojo was Elizabeth who was dragged away from the back, but it was blurred and blurred, and then Kurt put his hand down, his eyes met his aunt again, and everything became clearly visible. Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and put it in front of him, and the world behind his hand was blurred. Out of focus is often used as an allusion in the film, and in the end Kurt's work also focuses on blurring. When it comes to the phenomenon of blurring, except for myopia, when people stare at a place for too long, their eyes will gradually lose focus, and they will not be able to see what is in front of them. this word. Although the essence of staring is to explore the truth, it can sometimes backfire. Looking at mountains is not mountains, and looking at water is not water. What I can do at this moment is to record the feelings and find a breakthrough in a way. There are countless bridges between the real and the fake, and everyone travels between them through the bridges they build. People may cross a bridge in a certain section of the road and meet each other in a friendly way, but they will never touch each other. The bridge's name is "cognitive". One step forward is an illusion, and one step back is lost in reality. Memories and dreams have been confused, but joy and pain are very real. Perhaps only when the bridge collapsed and everyone fell from the sky, and everyone closed their eyes, they got their own answers, and when they opened their eyes again, it was a new door. The one responsible for breaking bridges and building new worlds is often referred to as "time". The answer in each person's heart, and the confronted past, is this unique key. But after the key is used for a long time, people will ask in a trance: "Is it safe?"
