If it's taught well, art really is important to kids early on. It helps children develop language and allows them to see themselves in a way that isn't right or wrong, because if they draw an animal with five legs instead of four, nobody's criticizing them for it.
如果教得好,那么艺术对孩子们早期真的很重要。 它可以帮助孩子发展语言,并允许他们以对与错的方式看待自己,因为如果他们画的是一只动物用五只脚而不是四只脚,那么没人会批评它。
In my own life, I share my home with works by artists like Elizabeth Murray, Martin Puryear, Jackie Windsor and so many others, whose creativity is clear and fresh and compelling; the works break through the usual, and they inspire creativity; they inspire responses and understanding.
在我自己的生活中,我与Elizabeth Murray,Martin Puryear,Jackie Windsor等艺术家的作品分享了自己的家,这些艺术家的创造力清晰,新鲜且引人注目。 作品突破常规,激发了创造力; 他们激发了回应和理解。
I have the same sense of discovery and exhilaration from objects of design and everyday use - I am inspired by the buildings in my city, by park greenery and dazzling store windows, by the jaunty strollers and umbrellas and billboards I walk past. Just strolling our streets, we encounter creativity every single day.
我对设计和日常使用的物品有同样的发现和振奋的感觉-我受到城市建筑,公园绿化和令人眼花store乱的商店橱窗,我走过的轻快的婴儿推车,雨伞和广告牌的启发。 漫步在街道上,我们每天都会遇到创造力。
