contemporary art译本
Contemporary art
Contemporary art can be defined variously as art produced at this present point in time or art produced since World War II. The definition of the word contemporary would support the first view, but museums of contemporary art commonly define their collections as consisting of art produced since World War II.
当代艺术有多种定义，可以是时下创作的艺术或者是二战后创作的艺术。单词contemporary支持第一种观点，但是当代艺术博物馆却普遍的将其展品定义为二战后创作的艺术作品。
Contemporary art is exhibited by commercial contemporary art galleries, private collectors, corporations, publicly funded arts organizations, contemporary art museums or by artists themselves in artist-run spaces. Contemporary artists are supported by grants, awards and prizes as well as by direct sales of their work.
当代艺术由商业性的当代艺术画廊，私人藏家、公司，公众资助的艺术组织，当代艺术博物馆或艺术家自己于艺术创作基地内展出。当代艺术家从赠与、奖励以及出售自己的作品获得资金支持。
There are close relationships between publicly funded contemporary art organisations and the commercial sector. For instance, in Britain a handful of dealers represent the artists featured in leading publicly funded contemporary art museums.
公众资助的当代艺术组织与商业性的机构之间有着密切关系。比如在英国就有许多交易者代表艺术家在领先的公众资助的当代艺术博物馆中起着重要作用。
Individual collectors can wield considerable influence. Charles Saatchi dominated the contemporary art market in Britain during the 1980s and the 1990s; the subtitle of the 1999 book Young British Artists: The Saatchi Decade uses of the name of the private collector to define an entire decade of contemporary art production
个人藏家可以形成巨大的影响力。查尔斯·萨奇在80年代和90年代支配了英国的当代艺术市场。1999年一本名叫《年轻的英国艺术家》的副标题《萨奇的十年》使用了这位私人藏家的名字来定义整个当代艺术创作的十年。
Corporations have attempted to integrate themselves into the contemporary art world: exhibiting contemporary art within their premises, organising and sponsoring contemporary art awards and building up extensive collections of corporate art.
公司曾经尝试将自身并入到当代艺术世界：在其经营场所内展览当代艺术、组织并赞助当代艺术奖励、建立广泛的企业艺术收藏。
The institutions of art have been criticised for regulating what is designated as contemporary art. Outsider art, for instance, is literally contemporary art, in that it is produced in the present day. However, it is not considered so because the artists are self-taught and are assumed to be working outside of an art historical context. Craft activities, such as textile design, are also excluded from the realm of contemporary art, despite large audiences for exhibitions. Attention is drawn to the way that craft objects must subscribe to particular values in order to be admitted. "A ceramic object that is intended as a subversive comment on the nature of beauty is more likely to fit the definition of contemporary art than one that is simply beautiful."
艺术机构曾经因为管制什么是指定的当代艺术而广受批评。比如，室外艺术是真正的当代艺术，因为它产生于当下。然而，因为艺术家的自我教学，它并没有被看作是当代艺术，并被认为是艺术历史背景之外的创作。工艺活动，例如时装设计也被排除在当代艺术领域之外，尽管其展览有大量的拥护者。人们注意到工艺物品必须符合特殊的价值以获得承认的方式。“一件被寄望于对美的本质具有颠覆性评价的陶器似乎更符合当代艺术而不仅仅只是美丽的定义。”
At any one time a particular place or group of artists can have a strong influence on globally produced contemporary art; for instance New York artists in the 1980s.
在任何一个时刻，一个特别的地方或者一群艺术家可以对已经创作的当代艺术产生强烈影响，比如80年代的纽约艺术家。
