專家說明

How Little a Horse Needs - Four sticks, a crossbar, a neck and a tail. I had given myself the task of trying to find or make horses with the least right to be equestrian statues. This turned into a question of how reduced a horse could be to still be a horse...The simplification of the horse was easy, even effortless. However many elements were removed and reduced, a horse would remain. What was much harder was to reduce the dignity of the horse. I wanted horses ashamed of their horseness, but attempts to find this failed. The image of the horse disappeared if one too many elements disappeared - a back, a neck for example - but once there was enough to make out the form, the horse was shameless and fitted fine onto any pedestal. (William Kentridge, Nose - Thirty Etchings, David Krut Publishing, Johannesburg & New York, 2010).
