本书延续《塞尚与柏格森》立论，以柏格森哲学的角度，解索继塞尚而起的现代绘画三大流派：野兽主义、立体主义、未来主义之代表性成员，还有相关旁支：韵律主义、奥菲主义，以及重要艺术家杜象等六个主题。首页特别刊录塞尚含有三种圆体(「圆柱体、球体、圆锥体」)的核心作品：《杰佛华画像》与《佛拉画像》，意在衔接笔者的首要发现: 塞尚在这二幅画里分别以柏格森著作里的三个图示(「蚬形」、「水平与垂直线」、「圆锥体」) 巧妙构图，并且先后精心标示柏格森姓名缩写「H.B.」，特别指引其画作与柏格森哲学之密切关联性，二个图证明白可稽，弥足珍贵。因而，依循塞尚的创作思维，并延续原有的「表像与实在」暨「直觉与理智」分析脉络，进而解索其后继者彼此较劲、多元且富于变化、甚至竞争对立的各式柏格森风格乃更加引人入胜，这个解释框架不仅揭示了柏格森哲学的关键特征，也为理解塞尚晚期作品和二十世纪早期现代绘画中的「柏格森主义」开辟了一条重要途径，有别于一般对此主题较为零星、片断的讨论。本书不同于其它论述还在于: 跨哲学、绘画与艺术社会学领域之对比与视域融合，因此，所见不同...

●圖書簡介這是一本有關藝術追尋與發現的半自傳中篇小說。20世紀初，保羅•塞尚的藝術與亨利•柏格森的哲學之間可能的關聯曾經是一個謎樣的傳奇，歷經一個多世紀後，現在已經很少人提及或討論它。當年屆四十的小說主角於1997年離開台北的職場並回到學校進修時，雖然日子辛苦但他沉浸於藝術的繽紛世界裡。在研讀西方現代藝術發展時，他像好奇的小孩般對柏格森和現代藝術間的相似處完全著迷。經由繆思與前輩們的寶貴協助，他漸漸從缺乏信心到決心一探這個傳奇的奧秘。經過幾年煎熬、苦心思索，並遵循塞尚及其後繼者馬諦斯和畢卡索的心靈指導，他克服了時空的距離與現實的限制，解開塞尚多種畫作（如: 玩牌者、抽菸者、靜物、山圖、肖像、小丑、浴者等）的謎團，還發現其中的關鍵圖證，包含但不限於: 塞尚在二幅名畫裡融入了柏格森著作的三種圖示（垂直與水平線、圓錐體、蜆形）作為構圖。 此外，塞尚還巧妙地將柏格森名字縮寫H.B.嵌入畫作中。他終究驚奇地發現二者之間不可否認的聯繫，這也揭示塞尚創作與現代藝術裡一個重要的潛藏世界。無疑地，塞尚等大藝術家們...

这是一本有关艺术追寻与发现的半自传中篇小说。20世纪初，保罗•塞尚的艺术与亨利•博格森的哲学之间可能的关联曾经是一个谜样的传奇，历经一个多世纪后，现在已经很少人提及或讨论它。当年届四十的小说主角于1997年离开台北的职场并回到学校进修时，虽然日子辛苦但他沉浸于艺术的缤纷世界里。在研读西方现代艺术发展时，他像好奇的小孩般对博格森和现代艺术间的相似处完全着迷。经由缪思与前辈们的宝贵协助，他渐渐从缺乏信心到决心一探这个传奇的奥秘。经过几年煎熬、苦心思索，并遵循塞尚及其后继者马谛斯和毕加索的心灵指导，他克服了时空的距离与现实的限制，解开塞尚多种画作（如: 玩牌者、抽烟者、静物、山图、肖像、小丑、浴者等）的谜团，还发现其中的关键图证，包含但不限于: 塞尚在二幅名画里融入了博格森著作的三种图示（垂直与水平线、圆锥体、蚬形）作为构图。 此外，塞尚还巧妙地将博格森名字缩写H.B.嵌入画作中。他终究惊奇地发现二者之间不可否认的联系，这也揭示塞尚创作与现代艺术里一个重要的潜藏世界。无疑地，塞尚等大艺术家们的创作激荡，以及众前辈所积...

◎圖書簡介◎西方藝術、學界大致認為：「表現」為〈筆記〉的中心思想，而本書主要旨趣之一，則進一步探詢：「馬諦斯要表現什麼(what)？」，以及「為何 (why) 如此表現？」本書論證不同於歷來西方學者的三個主要論點：第一：不同於許多學者認為〈筆記〉「缺乏明確的結構」，筆者指出:文本第六段即反覆論說一個明確的結構「思想與方法的一致性」。第二：本書並將該文的主旨由目前所普遍認為的：「表現」，追根究底至表現的本源:「真誠」── 真誠其中，表現其外，此乃其思想之真正核心，且明白強調於文本的結論中。第三：本書也將馬諦斯藝術思想的根源，由普遍認知的十九世紀學院教育和二十世紀的現代思潮，往前探究至文藝復興的達文西，甚至古希臘的亞里斯多德。這是一本探討藝術之感動與哲學之驚奇相互關係的書。筆者希望做到立論嚴謹，如同科學辦案；內容豐富有趣，好像探險尋寶。本書討論野獸主義藝術家馬諦斯於一九○八年的文章：〈一個畫家的筆記〉（"Notes d'un peintre" 簡稱〈筆記〉，如附錄) ...

Throughout the long-term evolution of global capital markets, stock markets, and crypto-asset markets have historically operated as two parallel systems: the former is built upon over a century of institutional accumulation and vast institutional networks, while the latter has thrived within the technological framework of blockchain. Today, with the ongoing implementation and application of new models—such as the tokenization of real world assets (RWAs), stablecoins, crypto-asset ETFs, and...

During the beginning of the 20th century, the possible connection between Paul Cézanne's art and Henri Bergson's philosophy was once a legend. However nowadays, few people mention this anymore.When our protagonist left his former career and returned to school in the 1990s, he fell into the world of art. While studying Western art theory, he was fascinated by the parallels between Bergson and the art he researched. Our main character followed th...
