High Life Issue #4

品 36 #4 2017 年 1 月 “See? We think it is so cool, but if you just write it downyouwill see howempty it is … it is nothing. At the same time, no one is taking the time to learn classical music again, it is too hard and it takes too long.” Aswe look at a giant pink Rasputinwith glittering eyes, Konstantin says, “All my art is composed of layers. The more you know, the more you will see.” And it’s true. All of the art showcased is, even to the least trained eye, filledwithhistorical, literaryand political references. There’s Umberto Eco, Visconti, St Thomas of Aquino, Anarchism and The Spanish Civil War just to name a few. Next to Rasputin we have Queen Victoria with make-up and “Girls rule” written on her in graffiti. “This is how a great, powerful woman would be portrayed nowadays,” he continues. 当我们看到粉红色的巨幅《拉斯普京》时，眼中泛 起了光芒。君士坦丁说，“我所有的艺术都包含不同的 层次。你知道的越多，看到的就越多。” 确实如此。即使在最未经艺术熏陶的人眼中，所有作 品都富含历史、文学和政治内涵，比如翁贝托·埃可、维 斯孔蒂、阿基诺的圣托马斯、无政府主义和西班牙内战等 等。在《拉斯普京》旁边，是一副维多利亚女王的油画肖 像，带有 GirlsRule ！的涂鸦字样。 “这正是时下我们对强大女性的描绘方式，”他继 续道。 尽管所有34件作品中大部分是绘画，但君士坦丁还 放入装置、雕塑和精致玩偶屋，其中一个叫《教父》。 如果你仔细端详，会看到艾尔·卡彭的微观手绘圣诞卡 和细致入微的全画。此外，还有一辆古旧的车，车里坐 着破碎的古典罗马雕像。 “载着雕像的车？起初我们认为雕像很经典，但 目光很快会被这辆车所吸引，”他解释说。
