序 EDITOR’S NOTE

Poetic Hearts 心有詩意

In this bustling world, is it possible to attain a tranquil mind?

喧囂世界裡,心中可否寧靜? 在 繁 忙 的 紐 約,26歲 的 女 孩Katie G. Whipple喜 歡

In the busy metropolis of New York, 26-year-old Katie G. Whipple prefers slowness. Like an ancient Greek artisan, she paints just one flower a day, devoutly applying each fine stroke, and treating every detail of a flower petal as one would a character’s complexion in a portrait. Ethnic Chinese dancer Golden Li, also 26 years old, emphasizes focus. Every day, regardless of pain, sweat, and toil, he has never stopped practicing, calmly contemplating the essence, feeling, and spirit of every dance movement.

「 慢 」。她就像古希臘的工匠,一日僅畫一朵花,虔誠 地精雕 細 琢,像 對 待人物肖像 的肌 膚一樣 處 理著 花朵 的每一個紋路。同樣是26歲,華裔舞蹈家李博健,喜歡 「 專」。每一天,儘管辛苦、汗水和傷痛都那般真切, 但他從未停下練習的舞步,靜心去揣摩每一個動作裡的 精、氣、神。 無獨有偶,本期專訪人物心中都有一份動人的詩意—— 創造美好,傳播美好。面對虛華和誘惑,他們身上有一 種難能可貴的本能的抵抗力。面對生活,他們有一種踏 實而清醒的態度——把時間放在對的事情上。在這個繁

This issue features exclusive interviews with people who each have a moving, poetic quality—a dedication to creating and spreading beauty. In the face of ostentation and temptation, they hold a remarkable intrinsic resistance. They face life with a steadfast, clear-headed attitude—devoting time only to what is right. In this complex utilitarian world, their detachment and purity is a graceful force. No matter how bustling your surroundings are, looking from a distance, everyone has the power to choose. If your soul yearns for poetry, why not immerse yourself in some beauty? For yourself, and for others, seek beauty continuously your whole life.

雜功利的世界,他們的超脫和純粹,是這個時代溫存的 力量。 無論周遭是否喧囂,面對遠方,每個人都有選擇的權利。 如果嚮往心靈的詩意,何不經營一份美好? 為自己,為 他人,一直到老。

TREASURE for the

EYES By Pia-Maria Norris

ccording to ancient Korean herbal medicine, the body undergoes significant internal changes every seven years. At age 35, vital energies start to diminish and fall out of balance, making the skin more vulnerable to the aging process. The delicate skin around the eyes is especially vulnerable and tends to be the first to show signs of aging. Blending native medicinal herbs through traditional Korean methods, the holistic beauty brand Sulwhasoo has just launched an exciting addition to its anti-aging Timetreasure collection with the anti-aging and brightening Timetreasure Renovating Eye Serum, presenting a comprehensive solution to strengthening the skin around the eyes. Infused with the precious Korean red pine, a symbol of longevity and youth because of its durable wood that thrives even under the harshest conditions and stays intact for thousands of years, the serum adds firmness and youthful radiance while targeting fine lines, dullness, and sagging skin around the eyes. Sulwhasoo’s unique capsulation technology enhances the delivery of active ingredients, allowing the vitality of the red pine to quickly reach the deeper layers of skin. Leaving behind a refreshing, nonsticky feeling, the weightless serum becomes even more efficient when layered with Sulwhasoo’s Timetreasure Renovating Eye Cream EX.

據韓國古老的草藥學研究,人體每七年就會發生一次重 大的內部變化:原本充盈的能量在35歲後開始減退,使 體內能量失衡,皮膚更易老化。眼周的皮膚尤為細膩脆 弱,往往是最先出現衰老跡象的部位。 以天然藥材融合韓方,雪花秀新推出了一款臻秀修 護多效眼部精華,加入抗衰老臻秀系列,為激活眼周的 肌膚提供了全面解決方案。 韓國珍貴的赤松,是長壽和生命力的象徵,即使在 最惡劣的條件下、在貧瘠的土壤中,依舊能深入扎根,延 續千年。注入從赤松中萃取抗衰老的因子, 「 臻秀修護 」 眼部精華喚醒眼部肌膚的活力,高效改善眼周的黯淡和 下垂,搭配 24K 黃金眼部按摩棒使用,讓您重獲緊緻光 彩,宛如凝固時間。 雪花秀獨特的封裝技術,能夠保證活性成分新鮮, 讓赤松精華迅速深入肌膚。清爽不油膩,臻秀修護多效 眼部精華搭配臻秀修護多效眼霜使用,效果更加倍。

SKIN TONERS The FORGOTTEN Step 美肌養顏 化妝水不可或缺 By Pia-Maria Norris

T

oners are today one of the most neglected steps of our facial skin care regimens, yet they play a significant role in ensuring the overall health of the skin due to the remarkable benefits they provide. Toners were originally devised as an extra cleansing step to remove residual makeup and impurities, and to restore the skin’s pH balance. Our skin is naturally acidic, but due to the alkaline nature of most cleansers and soaps, the pH balance of the skin gets disturbed. This makes the skin work overtime to restore the proper balance, which, in turn, can result in sensitivity, inflammation, oily skin, and acne. Using a toner helps restore the pH balance of the skin. By removing excess oil and tightening and shrinking the pores, toners also help prevent oils and toxins from settling into the skin, making it less prone to oiliness and breakouts. A good toner can also quickly and efficiently provide antioxidants, soothing agents, and hydration to your skin, all of which are essential to maintaining the skin’s elasticity, smoothness, and a youthful appearance. An added bonus of toners is that they also help other skin care products penetrate more quickly, and they can also be used during the day to revitalize and refresh the skin. Choose a toner based on your skin’s specific needs, but make sure to avoid those that are loaded with alcohol, witch hazel, or other skin-aggravating ingredients.

在面部護理中,化妝水是很重要的護膚產品,對保持皮 膚的健康具有舉足輕重的作用。 化妝水最早扮演的角色是清潔,也就是在卸妝、洗 臉後再進行二次清潔。此外,化妝水有幫助皮膚 pH 值恢 復平衡的功效。人的天然皮膚是酸性,而大多數清潔劑 和肥皂卻是鹼性,因此洗臉後,臉部皮膚的 pH 值容易失 衡,促使皮膚機能加速運作來重新達到平衡,導致皮膚 出現敏感、炎症,或出油和長粉刺。從這個方面來看,化 妝水具有保護面部肌膚的作用。 化妝水還可以幫助清除臉部多餘的油脂,緊致毛孔。 性能優良的化妝水可以迅速、高效地抗氧化,幫助舒緩 皮膚並保溼,這些功能可以促進皮膚保持彈性、光滑和 青春。此外,化妝水有助於肌膚更有效地吸收其他護膚 產品的養分,讓皮膚在白天更加煥發光采。 在日常的護膚程序中,納入化妝水的環節十分重要。 清潔後,可搭配化妝棉全臉擦拭,稍微「 按壓 」讓水分吸 收,然後再使用精華液和保溼霜。

KATIE G. WHIPPLE Kindling Joy and Contemplation Through Flower Painting 一日一花 潛心作畫的紐約女孩 English text by Milene Fernandez | Chinese text by Yi-Chun Lin Photography by Samira Bouaou

ARTICLE ORIGINALLY APPEARED IN THE EPOCH TIMES

Y

ou cannot help but feel instantaneous joy when you first set eyes on Katie G. Whipple’s f lower paintings. When you look longer, a plethora of meaning unfolds from every f lower she has painted. “I paint one flower a day,” Whipple said in her summer studio in Southampton, New York. She sat in front of a large painting of an arching quince branch, partially in bloom, with tulips and daffodils elegantly attached to it. “Even though I’m pretty young, I’ve been painting for a long time—over 20 years!” she said, laughing. She started painting at age 4 with her mother. Now at 26, after completing rigorous academic training at Grand Central Atelier (GCA), Whipple can paint anything she would want to represent with admirable skill. Over this past year, she has chosen to paint flowers.

第一次瞥見Katie G. Whipple的畫中花卉,無以名狀的 喜悅便油然而生。 為了記 錄花卉的生命感 染力,Whipple 要全神 貫 注,一天僅能畫一朵。 「 雖然我還很年輕,但畫齡已經二十多年了!」她笑 著說。從四歲開始,她就跟在母親身邊作畫。Whipple 曾 在 紐 約 中 央 火 車 站 工 作 畫 室(Grand Central Atelier,GCA)接受了嚴謹的學院派繪畫技巧訓練。 在花草中成長的肖像畫家 在完成學業前,Whipple已經在中央火車站工作畫室執 教,並一路獲獎無數,其中包含了改變她繪畫生涯的關 鍵獎項——Alma Schapiro Prize。此獎讓她得以前往 羅馬學習大師作品。正是在羅馬美國學院(American Academy in Rome)的花園裡,她開始了關於植物的 創作,諸如葡萄藤蔓、花卉、蔬菜等。 返回美國之前,Whipple 受俄亥俄州路易斯研究學 院(C.S. Lewis Institute)的委託,繪製 《天使報喜圖》, 重現《聖經》故事中,大天使加百列向仍是純潔之身的聖

GROWING IN THE GARDEN Whipple’s career has developed on a steady upward trajectory. Before finishing her studies, she started teaching at GCA and won awards along the way, including the Alma Schapiro Prize, which sent her to Rome to study works of the old masters. It was

in the gardens of the American Academy in Rome where she started to make botanical paintings of grapevines, flowers, vegetables, and lemon, orange, persimmon, and apple trees. Upon returning to the United States, she was commissioned by the C.S. Lewis Institute in Ohio to paint the Annunciation, a triptych showing the moment depicted in the Bible when the angel Gabriel announces to the Virgin Mary that she will give birth to Jesus. The painting has lemon trees in the background and many floral elements. As she painted the figures of Gabriel and Mary, she longed to go back to painting the flowers in the background. In that painting, a lemon branch at the level of Gabriel’s mouth reaches across from the left panel to Mary on the right panel. “That was my representation for the word,” Whipple said. Yet it was as if an angel of flowers was whispering in her own ear, telling her that she would give birth to many floral paintings. “That realization was so shocking to me, because I always thought I would be a portrait painter,” she said. The day after dropping off the Annunciation in Ohio, “I just haven’t stopped painting flowers since,” she said. INVENTED IDEAL ARRANGEMENTS The f loral arrangements Whipple paints can only exist as paintings. Unlike other painters who set up a bouquet in a vase and paint from life until the flowers wither away, Whipple sets up one flower at a time. She designs her floral arrangement as she paints. She came up with her own method that allows her to dedicate a whole day’s work to each f lower, expressing the difference of each in more detail, she said. Like the impossible bouquets the Dutch Golden Age masters painted, Whipple paints flowers that we would never be able to see blooming together at the same time in nature. “I love how you can make things that can only exist in a painting, and especially with things like flowers, which are very transient,” she said.

唯有在畫中才綻放的花朵 Whipple作畫時,不像一般的畫家直接描摹安靜擺置於 瓶裡的鮮花,直至花朵枯萎凋零。Whipple一次只設計 一朵花的位置,這也是她構圖的一部分。而這種獨家的 花藝設計,可以讓她整天專心完善一朵花的部分。 為了構築理想中的場景,她有時還需動用膠帶與繩 索固定花草,尤其是離土剪枝後還能繼續生長的鬱金香, 更需費心處理。雖然這些前置準備看起來有些不可思議, 但是她解釋: 「 花朵的美好稍縱即逝,我希望它能在畫中 生生不息 」。 「 美 」即是實用性 「 美的體會是主觀的 」這種說法,在Whipple看來,並不 能完全立足。她進一步說明: 「 每個人對於美感的品味雖 然不一而論,但仍有普世皆然的美感判斷。比如來自不同 文化的民眾,在羅浮宮『 展翅的勝利女神 』雕像之前,都 會不由自主地停下腳步。人們會對於那些『 真的 』美好的 事物由衷讚歎!」 發自內心對美的嘆息,是世界語言;從自然中孕育 而生的美麗花卉,則是最廣為人知的讚歎對象。花朵的美 不僅催生無數詩篇,也令 Whipple 作畫時感知其無盡的 潛在力量。 「 關於花草,我認為人類需要它,我亦如是 」, 她嘆道: 「 它們粉碎了舊我,尤其是水仙花,她擁有太豐 富的特質。」Whipple 抬起頭,記起了雨果在《悲慘世界》 中所說: 「 美的本身即是實用,其存在或許很實際。」 Whipple 在 GCA 的最後一年,那時 22 歲的她感 到病懨懨,醫生診斷她罹患了壓力與焦慮的複合症。但自 從她開始畫花,她的焦慮症狀逐漸消失了,也不再需要接 受治療。這就是花的美好所起到的實際作用。她笑著說: 「 我的意思是,你怎麼能夠在粉嫩的水仙花前不感到開 心?少來了!現在的我不論走進工作室或執筆繪畫,一點 也不感到麻煩,但以前的我並不如此 」。Whipple 認為 花卉繪畫,幫她克服了情緒低潮與焦慮。Whipple 的畫 中充滿了與花相遇時澎湃的喜悅,令觀者睹畫同感。 以真誠的內心作畫 在藝術圈,相比較風景畫和人物肖像,花卉靜物畫的地 位頗低。 或許是因為花朵本身已太美,以至於花卉靜物 畫容易顯得陳腔濫調。畫家若欲提升花卉靜物畫的藝術 價值,意味著他需要更努力地攀上更高的繪畫境界,才 能成就不朽之作。 「 我決定以自己能做到的最好技巧和真誠的內心作

Sometimes she has to be inventive in troubleshooting. She uses tape and string to hold each flower in place, especially for tulips because they move a lot and continue to grow after being cut. USEFULNESS OF BEAUTY For Whipple, the idea that beauty is in the eye of the beholder holds true only to a certain extent. “Obviously, everyone has different taste, but there is a universality to the things we can all agree on that are beautiful. Everyone stops in their tracks when they see the Winged Victory statue in the Louvre, no matter what culture they are from. We can all appreciate really beautiful, well-made things. There’s a universal language,” she said. Flowers are a more obvious example of what is universally considered beautiful. Just as flowers have inspired countless lines of poetry, Whipple can easily perceive the endless potential in painting them. “There’s something about flowers. I think we need them. she said. “They crack me up, too, especially daffodils. They have so much personality.” Her face lit up as she remembered her favorite quote from Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables. “‘The beautiful is as useful as the useful—perhaps more so,’” she said. Painting flowers became more useful than she could have anticipated. Whipple’s transition from her studies to establishing her career developed rather seamlessly. Yet she experienced a setback during her fourth and last year of study at GCA. At 22, she fell sick, and her doctor diagnosed her with a combination of depression and anxiety that had manifested physically. Since she has been painting f lowers, she has no longer been suffering from those symptoms to such a debilitating extent. She no longer needs any medication. “I mean, how can you look at a pink daffodil and not be happy? It’s like, ‘come on!’” she said, laughing. “I don’t have any trouble going into the studio and getting to work, and I really did before for a while.” She’s absolutely certain that painting flowers helped her heal from depression and anxiety. In a sense, it is as if the flowers are helping her cultivate herself and her artistry. Painting them brings out the best in her. ELEVATING FLOWER PAINTING Paintings of flowers are not generally considered as seriously as other types of paintings, such as figure paintings or landscapes. 40│時尚精英 ELITE

“I decided I’m just going to paint flowers with the most integrity that I can and be as true to myself as I can,” she said. If she started painting something else, like figure paintings for instance, assuming that they are perceived to be more important, Whipple says, those paintings would probably look terrible because she would be unhappy. Looking at her painting of white lilies, she said, “I think of these as portraits. Just like a portrait painting used to be the only way anyone could ever be immortalized, I like to think I am giving these flowers a life longer than two weeks.”

All of the techniques she learned from representing the figure she applies to painting f lowers. Painting petals, for example, is similar to painting human skin “because they are translucent, have similar light effects, and are alive,” she said. Painting each one is a unique experience. “It’s important to notice those individual nuances,” she said, “the rhythms in the design.” Especially as an academic painter, she learned “to slow down, to pay attention to the little things in the world, and to see all those beautiful moments that happen,” she said.

畫。」Whipple 篤定說道。注視自己畫中的潔白百合花, 她接著說: 「 我將之視作花朵的『 肖像 』,這樣意味著花 朵的生命將能永生,我喜歡這麼想,彷彿我能給花兒們多 於兩星期的鮮妍生命。」不僅花瓣的質感類似人體肌膚, 更最重要的是「 花 」與「 人 」都是活潑潑的生命。因此, Whipple 畫花如畫人,筆下暈染柔嫩的花瓣時,就如同 在繪製花朵的肌膚。 身為一 位學 院派 畫 家,Whipple 知道 只有 放慢 速 度、專注於觀察世界上的每一細節,才能進而發覺美。 Whipple 解釋: 「 觀察事物背後的意涵,即外在設計背 後的節奏,相當重要。」她嚴謹的治畫態度,猶如古希臘 和羅馬的工匠,以虔誠的心態去精雕細琢每一個細節。

SWEET DREAMS Liang Shi, the Co-Creator of NYC’s First Dessert Fest 華裔女孩施諒南闖紐約 甜蜜夢幻「美國夢」 English text by Irene Luo | Chinese text by Crescent Dai | Photography by Liang Shi and Roberto Stefan

F

or designer and creative director Liang Shi, every day brims with exciting and grand possibilities. As 29-year-old Liang dives into new pursuits, she sets no limits on what she can achieve. With this energy and drive, Liang started a curated dinner series to meet more people in New York City; she launched her own pop-up matcha cafe because she fancied having her own coffee shop; and most recently, she and fellow dessert lover Miraya Berke single-handedly co-pioneered New York City’s first-ever dessert festival—Dessert Goals. Since the genesis of this day of indulgence last summer, the duo has held the event four times—thrice in New York and once in Los Angeles—always with immense success, selling out online tickets within minutes.

她 沒有受 過系統 的美術訓 練,但 《Forbes》和《Medical Economics》等媒體對她的設計作品讚賞有嘉。Condé Nast、SoulCycle、MindBodyGreen 等都是她的客戶。 就在你以為設計是這位華裔女孩的專攻領域時,轉身間, 她主辦了抹茶快閃店、Dessert Goals 甜點節,現場萬頭 攢動,活動有聲有色。 她就是施諒南,一位紐約街頭的年輕華裔女孩,同 時也是一位饒有經驗的創業家。 單親家庭中成長 羽翼漸豐 施諒南的父母都是上海人,在她很小的時候就離異了,媽 媽在美國獨自扶養她長大,辛苦地工作,就是為了女兒能 夠受到良好的教育、有一份穩定的工作,不用像她一樣飄 搖打拚。 「我媽媽一直都非常保護我,小時候甚至不希望我花 太多時間出去玩。」施諒南沒有因此而不高興,反而開始 在電腦前嘗試做一些事情。媽媽也許不知道,她送給女兒 的電腦不僅是一份愛心禮物,更是女兒事業的起點。

FINDING HER OWN PATH Liang’s parents divorced when she was a baby, so Liang was raised by her mom, who grew up in Shanghai, China. Her family “didn’t have very much,” Liang said. Since she was little, Liang watched her mother work tirelessly to support the family, regularly sending money home to her grandfather. To help out, Liang started working different part-time jobs when she was 16.

由於學費昂貴,施諒南沒有選擇藝術類院校,她聽從 媽媽的建議,在大學期間主修了廣告設計。畢業後,施諒 南先後進入許多企業,有像 Condé Nast 這樣的大公司, 也有一些小企業。工作進入正軌,她卻陷入了對自己未來 的思考,朝九晚五的工作生活,真的是她想要的嗎?施諒 南偏偏不想選擇一條平凡的路,她在設計方面的才能開始 顯露,為她指引了另一個方向。 「 我的第一份工作是客戶經理,而後我自薦做了一年 的設計師。後來我在紐約找到一份新工作,可是因為不適 合,兩個月就被解雇了。」害怕媽媽會擔心,施諒南當時並

Since she was little, Liang enjoyed design, and she spent most of her time learning design on the computer by herself, starting in the sixth grade. Among her childhood accomplishments, Liang made her own cartoon signature for an online forum, designed her own blog, and created a Britney Spears fan website. “It’s very embarrassing,” Liang joked, but with seriousness, she added, “The best gift I ever recieved in my life was a computer from my mother.” During her college years studying advertising, Liang worked a dozen internships, including at three advertising agencies, and squeezed in wedding photoshoots on weekends to earn pocket money. After college, she moved from one full-time position to another, from Texas to New York City. But after a while, Liang felt the structure of a 9-to-5 job was stifling. After dabbling in freelance work, she eventually decided to become a full-time freelancer. “The first time, I was forced to do freelancing. However, it’s like once you’ve tasted what freedom is like, it’s hard not coming back.” As a freelancer, Liang worked hard to build a name for herself. She now boasts clients ranging from Condé Nast and SoulCycle to startups like MindBodyGreen, Levo League, and Soma Water.

沒有把這個消息告訴媽媽,而是重新振作,成為了自由職 業者。就在此時,她迎來了事業中第一個轉折,一家公司 喜歡她的作品風格,雇用她設計了一款手機軟件,作品還 登上了 《Forbes》雜誌。 這份工作的報酬竟然是她之前全職工作的兩倍,這 讓施諒南首次意識到,自由職業也許更適合自己。 起初,她對於如何開始創業有滿腦子天馬行空的點 子,因而猶豫再三。 「 可是,一切都還是零。於是我開始反 思,發現最大的問題是我要邁出這一步。即便這意味著放 棄全職工作,離開我的舒適圈。」 最終,她決定放手一搏。 「 那個時候,我只是想要證 明我可以做成一番事業。每次嘗試,都成就了我,成就了 如今的我。」 勇敢起航 設計都市人的夢幻體驗 「一些設計師在創作的時候,總是力求完美,不過我發現, 直接去做比做到完美更重要。」抹茶快閃店就是源於施諒 南的一個簡單的新點子,她並未因自己在美食行業是「零 經驗 」而憂慮,而是立刻付諸了實踐。 「我很喜歡咖啡,於是我在想,有自己的咖啡店應該 是一件很酷的事情。可是當列出需要物品的清單後,我開 始膽怯,然後我想,也許可以做小規模的嘗試。」施諒南 喜歡抹茶,於是很快就確定了抹茶快閃店的形式, 「MA MATCHA」應運而生。 她通過朋友聯繫到一個合作攤位,時間就在兩週以 後。 「第二天,我就設計了品牌、網站,然後訂購了杯子,

AN EXPERIMENT While working as a designer, Liang also grappled with a number of ideas for a potential startup. In her free time, she started Fun Fun Field Trip, a camp for adults, and Fun Fun Dinner, a curated dinner series, so she could meet more people in New York City. Soon Liang was pondering a new endeavor: having her own coffee shop. It seemed impossible, so she settled on something smaller-scale—a pop-up, or temporary, cafe. But even that seemed daunting: “I had zero background in food, beverage, and the pop-up space,” Liang said. But she decided to try nonetheless, giving herself three months and breaking up the seemingly unfathomable goal into a series of doable steps. It was the beginning of MA MATCHA, a popup cafe selling handcrafted, original drinks made out of matcha, or powdered green tea. Its name is a tribute to Liang’s mother, whom Liang calls “ma” in the Shanghai dialect. Her mother’s zodiac animal is also a horse—or “ma” in Chinese.

開發出了飲品配方。」兩週之後,在「MA MATCHA」快閃 店內,施諒南製作的飲品很快全部售罄,非常成功。 抹茶快閃店證明了施諒南的實力,不過,這才只是起 點而已。在辦過了 12 場抹茶快閃店後,她的眼光落在了 甜點上。 「我和朋友出去吃甜點,突然有一個想法:我想要做 甜點節。餃子、啤酒、烤肉等各種各樣的美食節,都有人 在做了。我們想,甜點節,一定也有了吧?真的去查,發現 居然沒有。所以就決定做了,就是這麼簡單。」 施諒南的合夥人 Miraya Berke,也是她的好朋友, 她們共同討論、策劃,各有分工。施諒南主要負責聯繫 商家、設計與營銷;Miraya Berke 有活動製作的經驗, 兩人合作無間。就是這樣,兩位年輕女孩在紐約打造了 Dessert Goals 甜點節,售票伊始就人氣爆表,迅速售罄。 Dessert Goals 甜點節裡,她們把紐約人氣旺、顏值高、 創意好的甜點齊聚一堂,打造了一個宛如童話世界的甜點 世界。 甜點節發布的官方甜點照片,配色和構圖都令人驚 豔,竟然也都出自施諒南之手。憑著設計師的天賦和對甜 點的情愫,施諒南在攝影作品中讓各式甜點的繽紛美味呼 之欲出。 「我們在 Facebook 上做了一個活動頁面,邀請了自

After Liang shared the idea with her friends, she was connected to a mutual friend who proposed sharing a booth for a pop-up event two weeks later. Liang agreed and promptly started making the website, defining her brand, crafting the recipes, and ordering materials. When the event happened two weeks later, everything was sold out. Following the success of the first pop-up event, Liang did 11 more. “I just wanted to prove that I could start to do something. And every step you do, you start to build your momentum,” she said.

己在紐約認識的人,加起來有 500 個,我們想說,有幾百 個人就不錯了。第二天,發現有一萬個人感興趣。活動當 天場地爆滿,總共來了 1,000 人。」滿滿的人潮,為了一睹 精緻的甜點, 還可以近距離看到甜點的製作過程。結束後, 甜點節收穫了超多好評與忠實粉絲,媒體也紛紛報導了這 次活動。 有了第一次的成功經驗,施諒南又辦了第二次、第三 次,甚至還搬到了洛杉磯,規模一次比一次大,每次的票 都是幾分鐘內就售罄。 「 對我們來說,就像在夢中一樣。 我們想要給大家收集夢想的甜點。承載著每個人的甜點 夢,我們盡全力網羅各式美味。來到甜點節,就像來到了 甜蜜的國度。很多第一次參加活動的人,都表示迫不及待

BUILDING SUGARY PARADISE Among the many friends Liang made with her dinner series was Miraya Berke, whom Liang met at her first dinner in June 2015. The two were both freelancers and were united by one passion—dessert. In the summer of 2016, while they were enjoying some delicious shaved snow, the two mused about a dessert festival. “Dumplings, beer—there’s a food festival for everything. So we thought somebody must be doing a dessert festival. But when we searched for it, we found it actually didn’t exist,” Liang said. So the two started to plan, splitting responsibilities and trusting each other’s expertise. Miraya handled event production, while Liang managed vendors, design, and marketing. This included shooting all the promotional photos—each a colorful, mouthwatering masterpiece. To publicize the event, the pair made an event page on Facebook and invited all their friends in New York, about 500 people in total. When they returned to the page the next day, they found over 10,000 people were interested in coming. By the day of the festival, that number had grown to 40,000. “It was a huge surprise. We thought we would do well. We didn’t think it could go that well,” Liang said. They expanded, holding Dessert Goals in larger venues and branching off to Los Angeles. “For us, it’s just like a dream. And we want to create the dream dessert experience for people,” Liang said. She and Miraya have already started planning for 2018. “The American dream—I take it literally. You have to work really hard to get where you want to go,” Liang said. “Every kind of dreams has steps,” she said. “The biggest step is to take action. 46│時尚精英 ELITE

想來參加下一次的活動。」 旅程繼續 不停下前進的腳步 如果說施諒南的人生字典有一個關鍵詞,那一定是「 嘗 試 」。嘗試給她自信,給她面對一切的勇氣。 「長久以來,我對周遭的很多事情都充滿了好奇,我 的個性令我不滿足於單一的生活方式。我相信一切皆有可 能,夢想始於足下,邁出這一步才能繼續前進。」也許是 個性,也許是天分,施諒南的成功不是偶然,不是幸運, 而是一點一滴聚沙成塔的結果。用她自己的話講, 「我之 前所有的經驗履歷,都像是轉了一圈,重新回到了我的手 上。」 一切的一切,好似都有因由,每一次的新工作,每一 次新領域的新知識,都鋪了她的路。施諒南也充滿感恩, 慶幸自己能夠做自己,從事真正喜愛的工作,她成長的動 力,不是來自外界,而是源於自身。 「經常有很艱難的時候,你必須充滿熱情。我不想給 自己下一個定義、定一個框框,我希望可以做自己喜歡的 事。一旦如此你會發現,所有助你的力量都會聚在一起。」

O

n stage, Golden Li captivates audiences with not only his technical mastery, but also his ability to capture the spirit and dignity of every character—from a valiant warrior to a modern-day spiritual believer who defies persecution with moral conviction. Rigorous dedication to his craft has made this 26-year-old a principal dancer of the world-renowned Shen Yun Performing Arts company as well as a dance instructor at his alma mater, Fei Tian Academy of the Arts, which trains many of Shen Yun’s performers. On his path to reaching the pinnacle of classical Chinese dance, Golden Li discovered that it was not so much about physical excellence as it was about the forging of his character—a continuous journey of spiritual elevation. Sitting atop the highest peak of New Jersey’s Kittatinny Mountains, he shared his story of transformation from a Michigan teenager to one of the world’s most extraordinar y ar tists. He exuded warmth with his Duchenne smile, but also impressed with his refined demeanor. Despite his slender physique, he emanated an inner masculinity, or yang qi—a strong but never overpowering force.

在世界藝術舞台上,神韻的出現,是一座藝術山峰的出 現,《百老匯世界》評價神韻美得「 波瀾壯闊 」,《紐約時 報》稱讚「 五千年中國音樂和舞蹈儘在一台晚會中 」。 這些美譽背後是一群用生命和熱情來演繹中國古典舞的 藝術家。 李博健就是其中的一位。他曾三次榮獲《全世界中 國舞舞蹈大賽》金獎,擔綱神韻藝術團領舞。自 2007 年加入神韻,他隨團從紐約出發,穿越美國,讓世界的 眼光看到了中國古典舞的藝術高度,更將炎黃子孫的男 兒氣演繹得動人心魄。 傷痛中用盡全力 初見台下的 李 博 健,他 穿 著 藍 色休 閒 西 裝,卡其色褲 子,彷彿是鄰家走來的大男孩,滿臉是陽光般的笑容。 英姿勃勃背後,和很多舞者一樣,李博健的舞蹈之 路充滿了汗水、傷痛和艱辛。第一次開腿,他痛到流出 眼淚。他笑談,那是他唯一一次因為「 疼 」而掉眼淚。 這之後,他把「 痛練 」變成一種習慣。一天一天又一天, 翻騰、跳躍,李博健已記不清多少次重重摔下,又爬起 繼續。一次又一次積少成多,他身上大大小小的傷,似 乎是那些無數日日夜夜埋頭苦練的註腳。 這些傷痛,李博健從未向家人主動提起,有時候母 親從他人那裡聽到,會問他為什麼不說。李博健解釋說 「 其實難的時候,我還是要自己走過去,要看我自己。 靜下來想,自己做這個事情,究竟是為什麼,到底要不

A PROMISE Golden’s mother first brought him to see a Shen Yun performance in 2006. Impressed by the energy and dignity within the art form, he decided to audition for Fei Tian Academy of the Arts, a premier school of classical Chinese dance in upstate New York. Golden had no prior training in dance, and he was far from a natural talent. In fact, he later learned that all the teachers at the audition deemed him unfit for admission because he lacked the right physical attributes. His posture was poor, his legs were slightly bowed, and his shoulders uneven from years of wearing a backpack on one shoulder—details barely noticeable to the casual observer, but red flags to the instructors.

要做。」 日復一日的練習,看似平常,卻變在其中。如果說 最開始的時候,是性格裡的堅持讓李博健忍住傷痛走了 過來。那麼後來,心境的成熟,使他成為了一名真正的 舞蹈演員。李博健記得一位藝術老師曾分享,什麼樣的 人生才是一個值得的人生?一個不後悔的人生。面對辛 苦、傷痛或苦難,李博健總是調整自己的心態,用盡全 力,不辜負習舞練舞的每一天。 舞蹈是一條選定的路 「 路漫漫其修遠兮,吾將上下而求索 」,是李博健致學中 國古典舞的絕佳寫照。對他而言,中國古典舞不是一個 偶然的巧遇,而是一條選定的路。 李博健感歎,「 中國古典舞背後五千年的文化,是 不能捨棄的東西 」。從史前對神的記載開始,中國五千

Of the many teachers who scrutinized the boys at the audition, only one saw Golden’s potential. As all the other boys left for lunch, Golden was asked to stay behind. This one teacher looked him squarely in the eyes and asked him in Chinese, “Can you endure hardship?” Golden nodded. “Can you persevere?” Golden nodded again. A month later, Golden was officially accepted into Fei Tian Academy of the Arts. His words to that teacher became a promise, a vow to surmount physical and mental barriers as he molded himself into a world-class performing artist.

年文化綿延不絕。它是神傳文明,一個值得學習和承傳

RETURNING TO HIS ROOTS It’s hard to imagine that Golden, now an ambassador of his culture, was once at risk of losing his heritage. After he moved from Xinjiang in China’s northwest to Canada at age 4, his Chinese rapidly deteriorated. One day at the beach, “I walked up to my mom and said to her in Chinese, ‘Mom, help me roll up my sleeves.’ But I stuck out my legs,” Golden says, chuckling at the memory. Golden’s mother, concerned he would irrevocably lose touch with his native tongue, sent him back to China for five months to rekindle his language abilities. At Shen Yun, Golden has a similar but grander mission—to revive China’s 5,000 years of vibrant culture through dance. “No culture or ethnic group has such a long, unbroken history. And during these five thousand years, Chinese culture has been continually enriched. Although every dynasty moved in a new direction, they also preserved the essence of the past,” Golden said. Much of the essence of China was lost in decades of communist revolutionary movements, but Shen Yun breathes new vitality into the lost traditions of the ancients. “Dance is a language that everyone can understand,” Golden said. “It makes them interested, prompting them to ponder what China is really like.” For Golden, beauty lies in tradition, shining only brighter with the passage of time. The essence of China’s

的文化。舞蹈,是世界共通的語言,人們可以不懂得漢語, 但仍能看懂舞蹈背後的情感、故事和韻味。和神韻藝術 團的其他藝術家們一起,李博健希望借中國古典舞的舞 台,向世界弘揚中國傳統文化。 他以孔子為例,分享了自己對人生和生命的體悟。 二千五百年前,孔子乘著牛車,與弟子們開始周遊列國。 秉仁義之德,懷治世之道,卻處處碰壁,潦倒窮途,時 人謂之「 喪家之犬 」。孔子聽聞笑曰, 「 然哉!然哉!」 李博健說,「 孔子十有五而志於學,他周遊列國,無關 成就,無關榮耀。他就是要做這樣的一個人,給人們留 下他想要留下的東西。」

訪談中,他對岳飛、項羽、孔子的詩句信手拈來,中華 古典文化似乎刻在了這位年輕藝術家的生命裡。他的語 速亦平緩溫和,不在任何一件事情上做過多的停留。再 刻骨銘心的傷痛,再車馬勞頓的辛苦,再緊張煎熬的日 程,他都在淡定中輕輕訴說,沒有激動,沒有渲染。在 這位年輕藝術家的身上,人們很容易就能看到中國古典 文化的洗禮和內在心靈的涵養。 這或許是為甚麼,李博健的表演,總有一種打動人 心的穿透力。在 2010 年第四屆「 全世界中國舞舞蹈大 賽 」上,李博健以《垓下被圍》一舉奪得大賽金獎,他演 繹的「 項羽 」,有著垓下被圍時的無奈,失去虞姬的痛 苦,同時不失雖敗猶榮的堅強和霸氣。技巧嫻熟之外, 他似乎把項羽的靈魂和底蘊都跳了出來。 「 古人其實離我們並不遙遠,他們的心境很容易理 解。」李博健評價項羽說,「 他在歷史上是一個有爭議的 人物。『 力拔山兮氣蓋世。時不利兮騅不逝。騅不逝兮 可奈何!虞兮虞兮奈若何!』無關對錯,項羽的男子漢 氣慨,就是一種美。」若是項羽能遙見千年之後,這位 生長在西方世界的舞蹈家,或許會感嘆, 「 吾故人邪?」 李博健說,「 學習中國古典文化,可以領會作為一 個人的內涵。」目前,李博健正在攻讀中國古典舞專業 的研究生學位,並且考入了古文班。除了博覽古文經典 外,李博健正在梳理正統中國古典舞的歷史脈絡。關於 中國古典舞的動作究竟應怎麼做,他認為,這其實是一 個審美的問題,也就是中國古典舞的審美究竟是什麼的 問題。在他看來,這種美要回歸傳統、要正、要有範兒, 舞姿中的精、氣、神很重要。他強調「 舞蹈演員要在很

culture is a spiritual vitality rooted in Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. “It’s a culture bestowed by the divine,” Golden said. Since he was little, Golden remained close to his roots by practicing the ancient Chinese spiritual discipline of Falun Dafa with his mother. The practice led him on a path of continual self-reflection and improvement guided by the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. Instead of outward pursuit, Falun Dafa taught Golden how to search inward and elevate himself by adhering to universal moral virtues. Golden sees dance in much the same way, and he persisted despite the objections of most of his family. “With a career in dance, you may devote an enormous amount but receive only very little,” Golden said, “But for me, what I obtain is not material. It’s something spiritual.” CULTIVATING ENDURANCE Although Golden now leaps across the world stage with agile grace, those moments of magnificence belie a grueling process of suffering. In the first year of training, he practiced six days a week often until 2 or 3 a.m. perfecting flips and tumbles. His injuries are innumerable: “I fell on my hip once, and for a month, just walking caused shooting pain. Not long after I recovered, I fell and injured my hip again,” he recalls. His most serious injury occurred when he was landing a backflip and tore his Achilles tendon. He still bears a thick purple-pink scar from the surgery. When he was injured, Golden almost never told his mother. “I did not want to worry her,” he confessed. It is fitting that one of Golden’s role models is general Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty, a man celebrated for embodying the Chinese virtues of loyalty and filial piety. As China was invaded from the north, Yue Fei was conf licted between defending his country and staying home to care for his aging mother. In the classic story, Yue Fei’s mother saw her son’s dilemma 54│時尚精英 ELITE

and tattooed four Chinese characters onto his back: “Loyally serve your country.” With his mother’s support, Yue Fei rushed into battle. Golden is a warrior in his own right, braving injury and toil for his art, a tribute to his homeland and its millennia-old heritage. He chose to play the general Yue Fei the first time he entered the New Tang Dynasty Television International Classical Chinese Dance Competition as part of the junior male division. His performance won gold. He later received two more consecutive gold medals in the adult male division of the same competition. In his many years of dancing, Golden considered giving up only once. It was in 2010, when he was made team leader in a new touring company. While balancing his studies for a college degree between daily performances, he was directing rehearsals and also offering counsel to other members of his company, sometimes until 3 or 4 a.m. At breaking point, he called his mother and confessed his desire to stop dancing. But upon deeper reflection, he realized: “An experience is only temporary. Once it passes, you may reflect, and perhaps it wasn’t so bad. Maybe you learned something from it. But it won’t last forever, and it won’t always be so difficult.” “Often, it all depends on whether or not you can adjust your inner state, your outlook on the difficult situation. It depends on whether or not you are clear on what you are doing and why you are doing it,” Golden said. “So I would just adjust my mindset and then persist.” FINDING PEACE Of his many roles, Golden especially cherishes playing a Falun Dafa practitioner in mainland China, depicting the story of millions of fellow adherents who defend their moral convictions in the face of communist brutality. As a dancer, he evokes their dignity and resilience, inspiring global audiences. This spirit of moral conviction permeates all of Chinese history, and perhaps that’s why Golden feels an affinity for the ancients, even though thousands of


years separate them. In peace and in war, they lived by certain principles in their pursuit of an elevated ideal. Golden pointed to the life of Confucius, the sage who endowed Chinese civilization with benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and integrity. In fact, Golden said, “He wasn’t successful until after he died.” Although the philosopher went from kingdom to kingdom spreading his teachings, his ideas only gained traction centuries later during the Han Dynasty. “For his entire life, Confucius sought more wisdom,” Golden said. “It took him his whole life to figure it out,” but in the end “he knew how to conduct himself in any circumstance.” Golden pushes himself with the same outlook on life: “It is not a matter of how successful I am, but rather, as a person, what kind of person I seek to be. It’s like in ancient China, a man held himself to a standard of righteousness.” “If a man knows how he should conduct himself and what he should do, his heart will be at peace,” Golden said.

Sittting atop the highest peak of New Jersey's Kittatinny Mountains, Golden Li shares his story of transformation from a Michigan teenager to one of the world's most extraordinary artists.

多細小的地方下功夫 」。正如京劇的表演一樣,中國古 典舞中的很多情感要靠舞蹈演員的眼睛表達,需要演員 要去用心琢磨這些細微的情感表達。因此,中國古典舞 的舞蹈演員,在把技術和技巧做足之外,還要把握人物 的心態,才能把人物表現好,才能打動觀眾。李博健贊 歎, 「 中國古典舞是一種由裡至外的過程,它的魅力就在 於此。」 「 由裡至外 」,中國古典舞的熏陶讓李博健在英姿 勃勃之外,散發出一種內裡的儒雅和藝術氣質。採 訪 結束臨別時,李博健走在陽光撒下的金輝中,身上彷彿 有一 個 閃 閃 發光 的光 環。這 讓 人 想 起他 的英文名字: Golden,它彷彿早已預示了一段神奇的鍊金之旅:艱難 險阻,春秋更迭,李博健始終堅守著與舞蹈的不解之緣, 金石不渝。 2018 年的神韻巡演,這位年輕藝術家會擔 綱哪些新角色呢?讓我們翹首以待。

YEVGENIY REZNIK Excellence Born of a Simple Wish 單簧管首席:心懷感恩 漸入佳境 English text by Sarah Matheson | Chinese text by Yi-Chun Lin | Photography by Larry Dai

C

larinetist Yevgeniy Reznik was 17 when he left his home in Ukraine to further his music studies in the United States. Living so far from his family at such a young age, he would quietly reflect on the suffering of his grandfather’s generation to gain perspective. Today, even when in concert, he constantly reminds himself to think of others. Now an accomplished musician, Yevgeniy has toured with New York-based Shen Yun Performing Arts for five years throughout Asia and North America. He is currently preparing for Shen Yun Symphony Orchestra concerts at Carnegie Hall on Oct. 14 and 15, which are part of an international tour spanning South Korea, Taiwan, Canada, and the United States. The Shen Yun Symphony Orchestra, which debuted at Carnegie Hall in 2012, is unique in that it brings together classical Chinese instruments—such as the two-stringed erhu and the pipa—with Western strings, woodwinds, and brass. This year’s concerts will feature Shen Yun’s celebrated original compositions, along with timeless orchestral classics by Dvořák, Suppé, and Tchaikovsky.

十七歲時,Yevgeniy Reznik 離開家鄉烏克蘭,遠渡重 洋,只為精進音樂造詣。昔時年幼的他,藉由懷想祖父受 納粹迫害的經歷,激勵自己,不輕言退縮。今日,他時時 要求自己懂得感恩,唯有心存他人,才能放下自我,成就 最純粹精煉的樂境。 自 2012 年,Yevgeniy 已經連續五年隨紐約神韻交 響樂團至世界各地巡演。他正馬不停蹄地練習,為 10 月 14、15 日在紐約卡內基音樂廳的演出做足準備。 脫共之際萌發的音樂種籽 1984年,Yevgeniy Reznik生於烏克蘭。 1991年8月24 日,烏克蘭正式脫離蘇聯統治一週後,Yevgeniy開始了 小學生活,成為蘇聯統治以來,第一代不需要佩戴紅領 巾和列寧胸針的小學生。在脫共之初的社會背景下,他 的父親認為音樂更能幫助人形成良好的品格,因而計劃 把兒子培養成音樂藝術家。當時的烏克蘭,全國上下儘有 五所音樂學校。儘管舟車勞頓,父親還是把Yevgeniy送 到專業的音樂學校學習。由此,Yevgeniy開始了自己的 音樂學習之路。 1999 年,Yevgeniy 寄自己演奏的單簧管錄音至美 國密西根因特羅肯藝術高中,一所負有盛名的藝術學校。 如其所願,他得到了學校的全額獎學金,足以支付學費與 食宿費用,並能專心學習單簧管的演奏。

IMMERSED IN MUSIC Born in Ukraine in 1984, Yevgeniy started elementary school on Sept. 1, 1991—just one week after Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union on Aug. 24, 1991. Yevgeniy believes his was the first year of new entrants who did not have to wear the red neck scarf or a Lenin pin. Ukraine’s school system is slightly different from the United States; the schools run from 1st to 11th grade. But Yevgeniy was not enrolled in just any school— he was enrolled in one of Ukraine’s five specialized secondary music schools. His father had sensed that if his two sons were immersed in music from a young age, 56│時尚精英 ELITE

他當時的單簧管老師 Nathan Williams 是一位傑出 的音樂家和導師,讓 Yevgeniy 領悟了如何智慧地運用 每天待在練習室的四小時, 「 關鍵並不在於你如何努力花 時間在練習室,太多人都懂得咬牙把弄樂器。重點的是需 要練對方向;需要從內心體會音樂,才能在演出時收到打 動聽眾的結果!」 祖父激勵和「 明 」師教誨 音樂之路,漫漫而艱苦。學習過程中每次遇到困難, Yevgeniy都會遙想祖父以激勵自己。烏克蘭國運多舛, 1933年的大饑荒,使數以百萬計的人死於饑饉。德國納 粹則在1941年襲入烏克蘭,當年Yevgeniy的祖父不過是

they would gain a good moral foundation and have more opportunities later in life. As fate would have it, both his sons became accomplished musicians. Yevgeniy and his older brother Roman started their musical education playing cello. Roman studied cello for four years before he seemed to plateau and switched to bassoon. A similar thing happened with Yevgeniy after four years of study, and so he switched to clarinet in 1995. There was nothing particular about the clarinet that appealed to Yevgeniy. “My brother had a lot of success with bassoon, so my parents thought, ‘Okay, try a wind instrument; maybe you will do better—cello is not going so well,’” he says, laughing. And so Yevgeniy started playing clarinet with only a simple wish to do well. He believed more opportunities for musicians were in the West. “Again I am following my brother’s footsteps,” he says. “Because when he was 17, he auditioned at the Vienna Academy of Music, and he was accepted.” In 1999, Yevgeniy made a recording and sent it to the most prestigious and expensive boarding high school in the United States, Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan. He was accepted on a full scholarship, which covered his tuition, room, and board. “I remember when they actually accepted me and gave me all this, it was like $30,000 a year in 2001—it was a lot of money,” he says. Yevgeniy turned 17 in the summer of 2001, and in September he came to the United States to attend Interlochen Arts Academy. His first teacher in the United States was Nathan Williams, a very talented clarinetist who had a doctorate from Juilliard. “From him, I learned how to actually spend time in a practice room wisely,” Yevgeniy says. When musicians practice, optimally they should use a sound-isolated practice room. At Interlochen Arts Academy, Yevgeniy was required to spend four hours a day in the practice room, where the only sound he could hear was his own, and he would work on perfecting the sound. “We just want to make the most beautiful sound so that when we play that sound, it touches people and it’s meaningful,” he says. From 2001 to 2012 until he joined Shen Yun, Yevgeniy attended four different schools in the United States: Interlochen Arts Academy for his high school, Grand Valley State University in Michigan for his Bachelor of Music degree, the University of Nebraska–Lincoln for his Master of Music degree (where he also served as a graduate teaching assistant), and the University of Texas 58│時尚精英 ELITE

個十八、九歲的少年,便被軍隊帶離村莊、推上列車,駛 往勞改營。不幸中之大幸,祖父是勞改營的倖存者,最後 得以安全返回家鄉。 Yevgeniy 說當他試著易地而處,便會發現再沒有比 祖父母輩所經歷的更為艱難,學習的壓力也就全然不值 得抱怨。Yevgeniy 堅韌的專注力與強大的意志力,在他 的音樂學習上,得到了共鳴。之後,他又連續三次拿到了 全額獎學金,在美國攻讀了本科、碩士和博士學位,並均 以優異的成績畢業。 大學時期,Yevgeniy 再次幸運地遇到了良師益友。 對於 Yevgeniy 而言,他的老師 Arthur Campbell 不僅 是指導自己成為頂尖單簧管演奏家的良師,更是一位教 他如何在生活中判斷是非對錯的「 明 」師,使他在校園 中的各種誘惑中保持清醒,免於斷送寶貴的音樂生涯。 Arthur 教會了 Yevgeniy 如何學習專注,並且持續的致 力於精進音樂技藝的提升,於 Yevgeniy 而言是可遇不 可求的緣分。 Yevgeniy 於 2005 年 取 得 美 國 Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) 所 舉 辦「 年 輕 木 管 音 樂 家 州 賽 」 的 首 獎。 兩 年 後,Yevgeniy 在 碩 士 期 間, 又 於 MTNA 的 Young Artist Woodwind division Competition、the State Competition and the Collegiate Competition 兩項賽事摘星,是前途一片看 好的單簧管新人。 千里緣分一線牽 和Yevgeniy同樣來自加州大學奧斯汀分校的臺灣同學 楊元碩在博士畢業前夕,告訴Yevgeniy自己即將前往紐 約,參加一份演出工作的面試。他建議Yevgeniy在畢業 後,也可以向這家藝術團投履歷。 一年之後的四月,他與當時的女友,如今的妻子李佳 蓉( 來自臺灣,加州大學奧斯汀分校音樂博士,長 笛專 業)前往位於紐約曼哈頓的林肯藝術表演中心觀賞了楊 元碩所在藝術團的演出。結束後,兩人當即參加面試,並 成功通過。這家藝術團就是享譽藝術圈內外以融合中西 方音樂見長的「 神韻交響樂團 」。自此,他隨神韻藝術團, 在全球開始了音樂巡演之旅。 Yevgeniy 回憶,即將拿到博士學位前,他開始想像 自己畢業後的生活:周遊世界,巡迴演出,教授音樂,培 育英才。這之外的時間,他期許能夠遠離嘈雜的城市, 到一片清幽之處,過安靜的生活,修身養性。說著說著, Yevgeniy 笑了出來,他沒想到自己能夠夢想成真: 「 這一 切就真的發生了,我進入了神韻藝術團在世界各大城市演 出,走入了法輪大法的修煉,從事教學,還定居在景致清 幽的紐約上州!」 「 法輪大法 」是來自中國的古老修煉方 式,其精神指導是「 真、善、忍 」。多數神韻藝術團的藝 術工作者是法輪大法修煉者。


at Austin for his Doctor of Musical Arts degree (where he also served two years as a graduate teaching assistant and in an academic assistant position for one year). “It’s not just about working hard, because a lot of people work hard, a lot of people can practice instruments, but you have to practice the right way,” he says. “And you just have to have that inner feel for music so that when you play, it can have an effect.” Yevgeniy’s dedication and strong will resonated in his playing, and he received another full scholarship based on his audition to attend a Bachelor of Music degree program at Grand Valley State University in Michigan. Here he worked with a professor named Arthur Campbell, who not only guided him on how to play the clarinet but also emphasized the importance of being a good citizen. Campbell’s main priority was, of course, to help Yevgeniy become the best clarinetist he could be so that he would be able to go on to graduate school. “But he also kind of guided me, like what’s wrong, what’s good, because in college there’s drinking” and other temptations, Yevgeniy says, adding, “It’s easy to lose focus, and lose sight of things. So that was helpful—to stay focused.” During his undergraduate studies in Michigan, Yevgeniy won top clarinetist and alternate to the overall winner at the 2005 Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) Young Artist Woodwind State Competition. He was required to prepare a 40-minute program from four different periods for the competition, and play in front of the faculty. HALLMARKS OF EXCELLENCE Yevgeniy’s musical successes continued. In 2007, while he was studying for his master’s degree at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, he won the MTNA Young Artist Woodwind Division Competition, and then went on to win the State Competition and the Collegiate Competition. In 2009, he was admitted to the University of Texas at Austin for his Doctor of Musical Arts degree in clarinet performance. Nathan Williams, his first teacher in the United States, had taken a faculty position at the University of Texas at Austin a year earlier, in 2008. “When I came to America, I started with this teacher; and for my last studies of clarinet, for my last degree, I finished also with him,” Yevgeniy says. Williams ultimately showed him, “If you want to do something well, you have to be so dedicated, and you have to be consistently dedicated,” Yevgeniy says.

Principal clarinetist with Shen Yun Performing Arts, Yevgeniy Reznik believes that if you want to do something well, you have to be very dedicated, and you have to be consistently dedicated.

心懷感恩 不斷提升 除了體能需要克服,音樂家演出時的心理狀態也是攸關 演出品質的關鍵因素。Yevgeniy表示,他自己通常並不 感到疲累,但有一年在鳳凰城演出時,他心中止不住抱 怨,不斷感到自己身心俱疲,演奏的樂聲不復以往,可怕 的是這些負面的情緒就像跳了針一般,縈繞心頭。 Yevgeniy 先是理性地否認這些負面想法,並且試 著想想辛苦為他們準備膳食的廚師、保全、劇場、徹夜看 護神韻專車的工作人員,以及所有促成演出順利進行的每 一份力量。他發現原來是內心的「 自私 」作祟,讓他把所 有的焦點都放在自己身上。而當他意識到後,原本的精力 馬上恢復了,而且再也沒有抱怨的想法,演出一切圓滿。 2017 年,這是Yevgeniy 加入神韻藝術團的第六年。 Yevgeniy 說: 「 我要更投入、更勤奮地練習,要把最好 的樂音帶給觀眾的!」

AUDITIONING FOR SHEN YUN Yevgeniy’s journey to Shen Yun was guided by a Taiwanese friend named Yuen-suo Yang, who also studied clarinet at the University of Texas at Austin but had graduated in the year ahead of him. In 2011 Yang suggested that Yevgeniy consider auditioning for the company after he graduated. “I was like, ‘Okay, I will keep that in mind,’” Yevgeniy says. In the summer of 2011, Yevgeniy was awarded a scholarship based on a competitive audition to attend a six-week program at the Yale Summer School of Music, called the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival. While there, he performed in a chamber music setting with members of the Tokyo String Quartet and also with professors from Juilliard, the Manhattan School of 60│時尚精英 ELITE

Music, and Yale. “That was a great experience to perform closely with those accomplished professors and musicians and to learn from them about music making at the highest level. I benefited a lot from it,” he says. In the spring of 2012, Yevgeniy and his then-girlfriend Chia-jung Lee (now she’s his wife), went to see Shen Yun Performing Arts at Lincoln Center in April, and afterward they both auditioned for the Shen Yun orchestra. Chia-jung, like Yevgeniy, has an impressive résumé with several important competition wins, and it includes a doctoral degree in flute performance from the University of Texas at Austin, a master’s degree from Boston University, and a bachelor’s degree from Sun Yat-sen University in Taiwan, where she was raised.


Shen Yun Symphony Orchestra (SYSO) at Boston Symphony Hall in October 2016. SYSO is returning to New York’s Carnegie Hall on Oct. 14 and 15 for two performances as part of a global tour.

Yevgeniy’s and Chia-jung’s auditions were both successful, and a month later, in May 2012, they relocated to Shen Yun’s base in New York state. Shen Yun has one of the busiest tour schedules in the world, and since Yevgeniy joined in 2012, the dance companies have grown from three touring companies to five. Though they tour for four and a half months every year, performing in 35 cities, Yevgeniy rarely feels tired. On days where his touring company has a matinée and an evening performance, Yevgeniy does the Falun Dafa meditation between shows to keep his energy up. He says meditating helps clear his mind of extraneous thoughts and allows him to focus on playing well. Falun Dafa is a traditional meditation practice from China based on the principles of truthfulness, compas-

sion, and tolerance. In China, the practitioners have been severely persecuted since 1999. Most of Shen Yun’s artists practice the Falun Dafa meditation and exercises daily. After performing more than 100 shows a season, Yevgeniy maintains a high standard by always remembering that the audience is new each time. “If I start to think about myself, then I might think that I feel tired at times, but that’s just me thinking about myself, rather than thinking that we are doing this for the audience,” he says. “When I let go of self and think about other people, I receive the energy I need.” Yevgeniy believes he will be with Shen Yun for many years to come. “The way it just unfolded is because it is meant to be like this, so I just walk on this path.” 時尚精英 ELITE│61


ELLIE JOHNSON ‘Because nice does matter’ 巴菲特旗下地產公司紐約總裁專訪 English text by Sarah Matheson | Chinese text by Janet Ma | Photo by Xuehui Zhang

A

powerhouse in New York’s real estate industry, a woman renowned for both her business acumen and her charm, is building the New York real estate arm of one of the world’s most influential companies. Ellie Johnson is a name familiar to anyone involved in Manhattan’s luxury real estate industry. For almost 11 years she ran a prestigious real estate office on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. During her tenure, she grew the office’s successful sales team from 70 to 140 agents. Known for its abundance of highly polished women and men, her office ranked first in sales revenue for the company year after year. She has now been entrusted with building a full-service real estate firm on behalf of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, a company owned by business magnate Warren Buffett, the second-wealthiest individual in the United States. ELLIE’S JOURNEY EAST Ellie’s childhood was in El Salvador, and her teen years and young adult years were spent in the United States on the West Coast. Her real estate career started in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she sold 14 homes in her first year. “I attribute the success to the manner in which I treated my clients; they always came first, the commissions followed,” she says, smiling warmly. In 2000, family brought her to New York from the West Coast. Although she found the Manhattan real estate landscape very different, feeling it lacked standards for service and transparency to the consumer, she remembers going home and telling her husband, “You can fund me so I can start my own company, or I can become ladies who lunch.” He replied quickly, “Where do I sign?” Ellie recalls, laughing. 62│時尚精英 ELITE

在曼哈頓紐約高端地產界,埃莉.強生(Ellie Johnson) 是一個響亮的名字。埃莉曾創立並成功經營自己的地產 公司,後被蘇富比國際地產公司重聘主管曼哈頓上東區 銷售辦公室。在其任職的十一年間,埃莉帶領上東區辦 公室,建立起了強大的社區網絡,並成長為區域地產銷 售的領頭羊。 2017 年,她受波克夏.海瑟威地產公司(Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices)邀請,擔任其紐約分部總 裁,成為紐約地產界關注的焦點。

Ellie Johnson , president of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New York Properties.


The company she established in 2002 was Executive Brokers. Ellie feels extremely blessed and fortunate that her experiences over the past 17 years in Manhattan’s competitive real estate industry have enabled her to achieve great success in her career. Her transition to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices is another milestone on her résumé. She attributes this to the high standards she sets for herself, her employees, and her sales executives. “The stars were aligned; it was a mutual meeting,” Ellie says of her new role. “I guess I have to say that I was at the right place at the right time, with the right people. And it was one of those things where I still pinch myself, and think ‘how did this happen?’” She says Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices is allowing her to build their company and their business in New York the same way that she built up her company. “That was very appealing to me,” she says. “They are very trusting of my judgment and decision-making, guided by my CEO, Candace Adams.”

對的時間和對的人 「 一切就是那麼自然發生了。」埃莉說, 「 我沒有追求什麼, 大概是在對的時間地點,遇到了對的人。直到現在,我也 還會擰自己一下──受到巴菲特旗下地產公司的邀請, 成為其紐約分部總裁,這些究竟是怎麼發生的?」 一直以來,埃莉熱愛著地產行業。入行第一年,埃莉 就售出了 14 棟住宅。 「 太好了,我可以做這行」,她當時 想。後來,埃莉主管蘇富比地產公司的紐約上東區分部。 她在任期間,該辦公室的業績不斷增長,經紀人從 70 名 增加到 140 名,業績長期占據公司營收第一的位置,成為 旗艦。 2017 年,股神沃倫.巴菲特名下的波克夏.海瑟 威地產公司找到埃莉,她成為了這座商業巨頭進軍紐約 地產的第一任總裁。 在寸土寸金、競爭激烈的紐約地產市場,從來沒有 僥倖的成功,即使聲名赫赫,也難以輕易討好。來自倫敦 的福克斯頓、百年老牌科威地產相繼在紐約市場受挫。 人們對盛名之下的波克夏.海瑟威地產,自然畫著一個問 號──紐約這座「 大蘋果 」,會不會給埃莉分一杯羹? 「 不同的地產公司有不同的特點,我們會帶來不一樣 的東西。」埃莉說。這並非一場爭奪戰,每個人都在為他 人服務。所謂知己知彼,埃莉也從未懷疑過自己的能力。 當年,從西海岸初到紐約的第一天,埃莉告訴先生,

MANHATTAN LUXURY REAL ESTATE Ellie has aligned Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New York Properties to serve and provide services to all of her clients, be it at the highest end of the luxury market, or for someone buying their first home or a commercial property. It is also important to her that Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ clients get an immediate response and experience the highest level of service—the same level of service that allowed her to sell 14 homes at the beginning of her career. “This feeling can only be accomplished by ensuring that the client’s needs are the agent’s most important asset,” Ellie says. A Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New York Properties partnership with the Doyle auction house puts her office on an exclusive pedestal with other players in New York’s luxury market. Ellie says that when you are working in certain levels of the real estate industry, especially in the luxury markets, it’s synonymous to have the auction and art world components to the business. “And it’s reciprocal; by working together we can provide ‘white-glove’ services to our clients, from a home’s contents to the sale of their home.”

「 你可以資助我開一間公司,因為我知道怎樣給客戶提供 更好、更高標準的服務。」毫無半分猶豫,她的先生爽快 地說「 我應該在哪簽字?」。實際上,埃莉一直都是一個 可以給投資人信心,讓客人安心的地產專業人士。 舒心的安全感 埃莉知道,一個好的地產經紀,能夠在價值之上建立信 任。波克夏.海瑟威,這個名字本身便帶給人經濟上的安 全感,這正是其獨特之處。人們相信波克夏.海瑟威地產 在投資領域的表現,而地產領域為什麼不呢? 所以,埃莉並不急於向市場推銷他們的獨家代理房 產和金牌經紀人,她想建立的,是那種當顧客想到波克 夏.海瑟威地產,便能同時感受到舒心和信任。 「 比如說,有些特別的房子需要一年或兩年才能售 出,在這期間客戶對你的服務會有所期待,你要有能力 來支撐銷售運營的整個過程──而不是在一系列新品發 布、煙火晚會的高調宣傳之後,資源耗盡,客戶不得不失 望而歸。」 埃莉創造了一個完整多元的團隊,不同專業、文化或 經濟背景的顧客都能找到適合自己的選擇。無論是尋求 精品套房,或是挑選千萬豪宅,亦或出售古典名居,在波 克夏.海瑟威,任何一個顧客都會感受到全心的服務。

WORK–LIFE BALANCE Ellie compares the lifestyle of a broker with that of the gazelle that gets up every morning and starts running and doesn’t stop until the sun goes down. “We’re dealing with the global market, where different time zones have created a 24/7 environment, similar to the hotel industry. For example, a client looking online at a potential investment, personal residence, or a studio apartment for his or her outbound college student is going to hit Send at four in the morning (ET) and expect an immediate response.” Understanding the pressures agents face, Ellie is a big believer in mindfulness in the workplace. She allows her agents to take time off when they need it, and she makes an appointment with herself every day to maintain her work–life balance. For Ellie, spending time with her family and maintaining mindfulness are always the top priorities. Dressed immaculately in an azure blue dress, Ellie is a picture of warmth and surprisingly downto-earth. “I have had incredible mentors along the way— people who were so willing to share their knowledge and skills—and I carry that through my career. I try to extend that to my employees and my sales team members. They say that if you plant seeds you get flowers, and I try to weed my garden every day so that the weeds won’t grow,” she says, laughing. Her office is home to a few special keepsakes given to her by some of her sales executives throughout her career, including an interesting sign that reads “Because Nice Matters.” It was originally given to her by one of her agents for her beach house. The sign had such an incredible impact that she has kept it in her office ever since. “Because nice does matter. As the saying goes, say what you mean but don’t say it meanly, right?” she says, laughing. Ellie believes that having the right people is incredibly important, and Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ executive team follows the same philosophy. Ellie was drawn to the fact that all the executives in the company’s residential arena started out in sales, allowing them to understand how the agents feel on the other side of the desk and to empathize with the pressures that agents face.

“Our chairman of the board for HomeServices of America, Ron Peltier—every time you walk out of a room where he’s present, you just want to hug him like a teddy bear,” she says. “These are very powerful, successful people, and yet they’re so approachable and willing to share their skills, their knowledge, their resources in a way that you just want to do more.” Ellie has specifically chosen staff members who have “that integrity and that moral compass that aligns them to really respond to your needs.” Since the soft launch of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New York Properties in January, Ellie’s office has received a great response from the brokerage community, the general public, and the financial world. She attributes the success of this launch to Katharine Riggle, marketing director for New York Properties. “There’s such an incredible passion for Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices that people want it to succeed; there’s that energy that is underneath. It’s like a current underneath all of it,” Ellie says. In the financial world, Berkshire Hathaway is

known for its core principles of integrity and responsibility, and for its adherence to value investing. The company also provides shareholders with lucrative returns on investment. “I believe that the core values and foundation in which Warren Buffett created his companies, and his dedication and genuine interest in people and in humanity as a whole, transfers through everything that is touched by that brand,” Ellie says.

Windsor Smith

ECLECTIC BALANCE

IN A LOS ANGELES COTTAGE Windsor Smith:打造和諧共生的家居環境 English text by Sarah Matheson| Chinese text by Crescent Dai Photography by Michael Wells


The garden room, bathed in glorious light, features a soaring ceiling and Georgian-style doors that open to a courtyard with a pool.


A

ccent furniture from some of California’s most respected designers and carefully placed antiques bring an eclectic harmony to a spacious shingle cottage in Los Angeles. The 5,200-square-foot, five-bedroom, four-bathroom home is located in Brentwood—the former neighborhood of Hollywood star Marilyn Monroe— and was completed in 1992. Santa Monica-based interior designer Windsor Smith’s talents were enlisted to enhance the intrinsic beauty of the home. Adhering to her philosophy of giving people living spaces that support their families rather than simply creating beautiful rooms, Windsor mixed furniture styles and periods to enhance the light, airy, functional qualities of the cottage for her client. The garden room—with its lofty, structured quality—was ornately blessed with high ceilings, clean lines, and Georgian-style doors that open to an exterior courtyard and pool, granting a wealth of glorious natural light all year around. Windsor chose to juxtapose chinoiserie-style furniture with modern bookcases and a Maison Jansen coffee table. She selected calm grays and blues for the room’s palette to serve as an extension of the pool and sky. Ambient sounds of water trickling and birdsong add to the room’s almost reclusive feeling. The interplay between the sunlight streaming in and the furnishing of the room at different times of day is an integral part of the room’s experience. The functionally of the room is noted through a wall-mounted big-screen television and, at the opposite end, a leather-top writing desk with gold embellishment from the Windsor Smith Home Collection. “It’s the combination of elements that make a room sing,” Windsor says. Moving into the spacious music room, eclectic elements again manifest harmoniously. Assorted chairs from different styles and periods are set around a custom table crafted with sawhorse-style legs and a white caesarstone top. Windsor’s goal was to create a fun interactive space, 68│時尚精英 ELITE

where people could gather around the fire and perhaps even have a sing-along. One particularly exquisite item is a white painted wood chair at the head of the table. From the Windsor Smith Home Collection, the chair is embellished with gorgeous gold-colored detailing on the arm and is built with harmonious, flowing curves. Upholstered in Windsor Smith Home Collection fabric for Kravet, this piece was a prototype for Windsor’s collection with Century Furniture. On top of the table, a silver tea service and an English 1920s silver-plate samovar add to the grandeur, bringing a little tradition into what could be a very contemporary setting. The fireplace is certainly a point of focus. Windsor

crafted the mantel from glossy black painted brick for the client’s existing fireplace. The area rug over the ebony flooring is Windsor Smith for Kravet, and the round coffee table is from Californian vintage-modern-style furniture brand Lawson-Fenning. Windsor paired a light-purple iconic swan chair with a lightbeige leather Barbara Barry chair, and the two beige club chairs are Darryl Carter. On the perimeter of the music room, Windsor f lanked the family’s grand piano with a Windsor Smith Home Collection mirror that resembles an antique and twin periwinkle opaline vases from the 1920s that are set on exquisite water-gilded wood shelves. Rich ebony mahogany flooring makes a powerful, contrasting statement beneath it all. 時尚精英 ELITE│69

Silver and earthy tones in the master suite are balanced with carefully placed contrasts.

A

contemporary home in Poland brings together classic style, neat forms, and striking contrasts. Inspired by luxurious summer homes in the Hamptons on New York’s Long Island, interior designer Lucyna Kolodziejska of Fabryka Wnetrz employed a light, breezy color scheme, which she balanced against dark, often pure black elements. The home is one of her most time-consuming projects to date, and she designed the interior spaces to complement her clients’ interests and lifestyle, and to display special items from their travels. Lucyna started working on the project while the home was still in the design phase, which allowed her more input regarding important architectural elements, such as where the skylights should be positioned. The heart of the home is the kitchen, where a half-octagon-shaped bay window frames part of the room. Her clients had initially considered putting cabinets under the window, but Lucyna felt the bay window was an ideal space for a relaxed, less formal dining area. Her clients liked the idea, and so Lucyna designed a custom table and window seats with storage 74│時尚精英 ELITE

that act as dining chairs. The tabletop, counters, and the splash in the kitchen were crafted from blue-gray Italian marble from Carrara—the same marble source used hundreds of years ago by Michelangelo and Bernini for their sculptures. The kitchen walls display several art and decor items that Lucyna’s clients picked up during various trips abroad. “The owners seem to have souvenirs from every continent apart from Antarctica,” Lucyna says. “I arranged the collection thematically, and so gorgeous Venetian masks are decorating the hallway on the second floor, and the chess corner in a relaxation room is fully dedicated to India. Almost every spot in the house now carries memories and has become a place worthy of its owners.” The luxurious home has a sauna, gym, music room, a formal dining area off the great room, a spacious master suite, and exquisite furniture and decorative hardware throughout. “I would not be true to myself, and my clients would be probably disappointed, had we not designed more modern interiors,” she says. 76│時尚精英 ELITE

opper Beach in Oyster Bay Cove, New York, is a spectacular waterfront estate promising both opulence and relaxation. Set on five beautifully manicured acres graced by majestic specimen trees and verdant lawns, Copper Beach is a masterpiece of modern architecture designed by Keller Sandgren Architects. Positioned for panoramic views across the bay to Connecticut, the luxurious interior spaces of the 12,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom home blend seamlessly with multilevel terraces, an outdoor heated pool area, the generous grounds, and the bay beyond. Frances Covella and Lois Kirschenbaum of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty are the home’s exclusive listing agents. The gated property is at the end of a cul-de-sac. Steel gates open to a curvilinear driveway bordered by trees and broad lawns that slope gently down toward the water. The exterior of the home is constructed from both glass and solid geometric design elements, and is crowned by a slate roof. The spacious entrance foyer welcomes guests with spectacular double-height ceilings, honed black granite floors, a sculptural wall, and a staircase. The home’s modern interiors immaculately transition through floor-to-ceiling windows to rear patios, lawns and gardens, a gazebo, a flowing artesian well, and the spectacular water views. “Wherever you are in the home, you have this incredible view of the water and the property,” Kirschenbaum says. The home is engineered for entertaining. The grand double-height formal living room on the first floor has a vaulted ceiling, a fireplace, skylight, lacquered builtin cabinetry, and a verde-green marble-top buffet. This level also has a bar area, with a marble bar top and built-in storage crafted from exotic wood. The media room on this level has modern built-in cabinetry and stunning water views.

THE EPITOME OF LUXURY Superhouse for the Super Rich 超級住宅 金字塔頂端的極致府邸 English text by Irene Luo | Chinese text by Yi-Chun Lin Photography by The Boundary

A

gainst a backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea, this island refuge unites luxury with simplicity, tranquility with adventure. Outfitted for the world’s highest echelon, it is the concept house for the Superhouse brand. Their architects meticulously tailor their designs to the penchants of their clients and seek to attain the pinnacle of contemporary residential architecture. Magnus Ström, the founder of the England-based firm Ström Architects, found inspiration for the Superhouse concept after working alongside a world-renowned naval architect. “Why do ‘superyachts’ exist, but ‘superhouses’ don’t?” he pondered. “Why couldn’t houses also reach the same heights of design quality and workmanship?” From this, Superhouse was born, an ambitious dream to create bespoke luxury homes for the world’s wealthiest, much like commissioned “superyachts.” “[We] will do so through having a holistic approach; not just to the design of a Superhouse, but also to the individual lifestyle out of which each house will be born,” the architects say. Every element of the house—from the site to the furnishings—is customized. The architects offer a vision of limitless possibility, promising to build anywhere from glistening beaches to city skyscrapers depending on the tastes of their clients. The architects will design only 30 Superhouses in the world. And all will be unique. This concept house is nestled in a sheltered, rocky

在全球金字塔頂端客戶的引頸期 盼下,Superhouse企 業推出僅有三十戶,每一間設計都獨一無二的「 超級住宅 (Superhouse) 」。 聞名英國南岸的 Ström Architects 創辦人Magnus Ström,是 Superhouse 概 念 的 發 起 者 和 實 踐 者。 Magnus Ström 辦公的地點毗鄰一家全球知名的船舶企 業。目睹超級遊艇的華麗誕生,他想: 「 為什麼不組建精 英團隊,把同等級別的高標準和高質量運用在住宅設計 上呢?」他大膽設想: 「 如果超級遊艇能存在, 『 超級住 宅 』有什麼不可以呢?」就是這樣, 「 超級住宅 」的概念應 運而生。 屋如其名,Superhouse 企業注重獨創性,旨在打 造 「 超越一切住宅 」的創意作品。但是,一棟 「 超級住宅 」 的建成不僅僅在於平面設計圖上無限創意和謹慎規劃, 更需要根據每位客戶的生活方式,打造一個符合客戶生 活習慣和個人風格的客製化旗艦住宅。實際上,當「 超 級住宅 」訂製服務開始的那一刻,Superhouse 的建築 師團隊的注意力不僅僅在房屋設計上,他們同時會根據 客戶每日五感運作做貼心地計算,並在整體構造中加入 相應的設計細節。因此對於住戶而言,每一棟「 超級住 宅 」,都是這世界上最特別、最設計獨步、專屬於自己 和家人的華美宮殿。這正和 Superhouse 企業的宗旨相 吻合——為客戶量身打造夢想之屋,令人充分體會「 家 」 的極致魅力。 本文圖中是編號 S00/30 的「 超級住宅 」概念圖。 它座落於地中海的私人海灣,可穿越多山的沿途風光開 車進入,或通過私人直升機快速抵達。採用當地石材築出 牆面並砌成中庭,這戶「 超級住宅 」的入口處寬闊氣派, 同時十分具有隱私感。府邸外,是海天一色的壯觀景色。 這種低調奢華的設計,讓 S00/30 號「 超級住宅 」彷彿 隱身在高山岩穴下的低調貴族。 整體宏達壯觀之外,這棟「 超級住宅 」的內部設計既

bay with grand views of the Mediterranean Sea. A walled courtyard built from local stone welcomes residents and creates a comforting sense of arrival. Two L-shaped stone walls cradle the house, which is split into two sections: one for service elements like the kitchen, stores, and staff accommodation, and one for a spa and gym. The home also boasts a private beach with a long dock for a yacht and tender. The overall design is imbued with fluidity. Floorto-ceiling glass windows offer breathtaking views of the glistening sea. The kitchen and dining area are separated by sliding screens, which can disappear into the floor to broaden the space. Similar sliding screens were used to separate the spa and gym. Hailing from Sweden, Magnus Ström imbues his designs with the ethos of Swedish Functionalism, a spirit of tradition, modesty, quietude, and purposefulness. It’s a pursuit of architecture that unites simplicity with beauty, while harmonizing with the natural surroundings. 90│時尚精英 ELITE

These same qualities exist within the bespoke refuges of Superhouse, which couple the apex of luxury with a quiet soulfulness. Ström Architects is a contemporary boutique architecture practice on the southern coast of England. The design for this Superhouse, S oo/30, received the American Architecture Prize (Silver in Architectural Design/Residential Architecture). 由樓梯向上,二樓是主人套房和四個小型客房,主 人可以在房間中直接去往室外的 50 米超大無邊游泳池。 而水療中心和健身房相依而建,中間由一個大螢幕分割 開來,而僅需輕輕地滑動這個螢幕便可在兩個空間裡任 意穿梭。 此外,這棟住宅配備私人海灣,可停泊快艇與接駁 船,水域也是生活場景的重要部分!

對公司非常不利的消息出來;如果跌了一半,那只要回到原來價位就賺了一 倍,反正把錢放在銀行裡也沒有什麼利息,在股市買賣的人應該都不傻, 原來價錢那麼高自有它的道理,價格跌下來就是市場炒作的原因,過一段 又會再炒回來。 其實這些想法不一定準確,而且常常是錯誤的!人們天生對這個世界 就懷著美好的願望,容易低估現實的艱難和殘酷。這就是在中國為什麼大

又過了一、兩年人們意識到,好多營養品裡的成分其實對身體沒有什 麼明顯的益處,還不如多吃新鮮蔬菜和水果的效果來得好,所以這個連鎖 店的生意就慢慢開始下滑了,但股價開始還是沒有突然大跌,因為美國人 總是相信會有喬布斯一類的人物來挽救所有美國的上市公司,使他們都能 夠起死回生。 等有一些大基金的經理人終於意識到這個公司沒有「 超人 」來救援 時,股價迅速從 $40 掉到 $20,不長時間有到了 $10,這中間不知道多少 人一直在買進,覺得即使公司業績不會有大幅度回升,但應該有大的連鎖 店把它買下來才對,買價至少應該在 $30 左右吧? 結果一年不到股價就到了五塊多美金。所以當初觀察這個股票時,你 就應該想到:假設沒有大公司願意收購它,那麼它只能不斷的關店,相應 的搬家、甩賣、人員遣散等費用是相當可觀的,因為公司整體的經營沒有 或只有很少的利潤,繼續運作下去就只能舉債。而銀行或債務市場此時對 這個公司的融資要求所提出的條件就會非常苛刻,幾年下去最後很可能就 撐不住了。那時破產成了唯一的選擇,股票也就一分不值了。 所以買個股是風險很大的一個動作,下單之前應多考慮不利的因素, 明確自己的心理承受能力,別老只想著股票上漲的空間!

深邃厚重 美輪美奐 行走意大利之建築篇 文w晨曦

意大利是西方文化的搖籃、文藝復興的發源地,因其迷

西元 1386 年,歷經六個世紀才全部竣工,其建築在「 裝

人的自然風光與為數眾多的人文古蹟而被譽為「 美麗的

飾性哥德式 」風格的基礎上,融合了新古典式和巴洛克

國度 」。坐擁53處世界遺產,意大利早已成為東西方遊

式風格。

河的畫卷一幅幅呈現在人們眼前。

米蘭主教座堂在裝飾及設計方面極盡繁複精美,從 上而下滿飾雕塑,其藝術氣息令人歎為觀止。在宗教界,

意大利的建築始於古希臘、古羅馬與伊特拉斯坎文

其地位也極其重要。西元 313 年,君士坦丁大帝和李錫

明,從聲名赫赫的萬神殿、羅馬競技場,到莊嚴肅穆的

尼在這裡頒布了 《米蘭敕令》,使得基督教在歷經了三個

聖馬可大教堂、米蘭主教座堂、佛羅倫斯聖母百花大教

世紀的迫害後獲得合法地位,從此羅馬帝國內有了信仰

堂、比薩教堂建築群( 比薩斜塔也在這裡 ),再到米蘭

基督教的自由。

埃馬努埃萊二世長廊、卡塞塔王宮、斯帕達宮、拉特蘭宮,

除了莊嚴的神殿和教堂,散布於意大利各處的宮殿

從古羅馬建築、拜占庭建築到羅馬式建築,再到哥德式

與花園也吸引著諸多遊客,尤其是位於那不勒斯以北的

建築及巴洛克式建築,意大利的建築承載的是自羅馬帝

卡塞塔王宮(Reggia di Caserta),更是被聯合國教科

國以來意大利( 亞平寧)半島兩千多年久遠的歷史,展

文組織譽為「 氣勢恢宏的巴洛克建築的絕唱 」,被人們

現的是底蘊厚重的歐洲傳統文化。

稱作「 歐洲最漂亮的世界文化遺產 」。

到 羅 馬 城 的 第一 站, 當屬 萬 神 殿(Pantheon)。

卡塞塔王宮在十八世紀中期由那不勒斯王國波旁王

萬 神 殿 建 於 西 元 前 27 年, 其 後 經 歷 史 演 變, 其 正

朝建造,設計師希望它能比肩凡爾賽宮、成為世界上最

式 名 稱 現 為 聖 母 與 諸 殉 道 者 教 堂(Santa Maria ad

大 的王宮。這 裡有 1,200 個富麗 堂 皇的房間、24 個大

Martyres)。其主體呈圓形,穹頂直徑達 43.3 米,穹頂

禮堂以及雄偉而又精緻的御花園。占地一百二十公頃的

的最高點高度也是 43.3 米。頂部直徑為 8.9 米的圓形

花園依山而建,溪水從四、五里外的山坡奔騰直下成為

大洞是萬神殿內唯一的採光點,站在殿中,光線從頂部

兩條瀑布,其中一條高達 78 米,蔚為壯觀。一組又一組

傾瀉而下,令人頓感神聖莊嚴。萬神殿圓形主體的前方

精美絕倫、栩栩如生的雕塑群,從山腳下一直排列到宮

有一 個 寬 34 米、深 15.5 米 的 柱 廊,16 根高 達 12.5 米

殿前,其美麗程度遠遠超過了凡爾賽花園。青山綠水、

的柱子威嚴矗立,每根都是用整塊花崗石製成,底部基

雕塑噴泉,匠人們的巧奪天工與大自然的美景交相輝映,

座直徑 1.43 米。這種圓廳加柱廊的設計,日後被應用於

若非身臨其境,又怎能感知其一二?

許多著名的建築物,如北京清華大學的清華大禮堂。萬

意大利這片土地歷經了羅馬帝國之盛與衰、基督教

神殿是古羅馬建築藝術的結晶,對西方建築史的影響舉

的被迫害與興起、外族的入侵和文藝復興的發源等漫長

足輕重。

的歷史,我們無法親眼目睹那份久遠與深邃,但意大利

米蘭是意大利之行不可錯過的城市,而雄踞於市中

半島上數不盡的建築依舊記錄著幾千年來滄海桑田之變

心的米蘭主教座堂(Duomo di Milano),亦是世界建

遷。或是承載著一段段厚重的歲月,或是講述著一個個

築史和文明史上的奇蹟、是世界上最大的哥德式建築、

喜怒哀樂的故事,或是將古人走過的滄桑盡顯眼前,或

也是僅次於梵蒂岡聖彼得教堂的世界第二大教堂。米蘭

是將西方藝術鼎盛時期的雕塑與繪畫展現得美輪美奐。

提到意大利,可能很多人都會想到羅馬、米蘭、佛羅倫斯,

要地城市串聯了起來。自助遊,可驅車沿路而行,逐一拜

但是艾米 利亞-羅馬涅(Emilia-Romagna)所代 表的

襲了中世紀時期的發酵和儲存方式,只有貴族才能買得

拉斯特坎人(the Etruscans)和羅馬人利用鹽巴醃製火

腿的做法,今日仍在沿用;乾酪的做法源自中世紀;而香

大區的餐館裡,可以經常看到非常大的木桶,散發出濃

醋在很久很久以前,就被當地人當作新娘陪嫁的嫁妝,至

濃的香味。如果不知道,會以為這是一種美酒。

今仍是貴重之物。美食的歷史,彷彿氤氳在艾米利亞-羅

造價不菲的香醋,通常裝在由知名意大利汽車設計

馬涅的土地上,而當地的風土人情似乎就是歷史的延續。

師 Giorgetto Giugiaro 設計的專利醋瓶,100 毫升的圓
