单选题 Passage Two
Questionsare based on the following passage.
How easy it is to glance at so much contemporary art.Sometimes it seems partly a result of the postmodern repudiation of subjectivity and passion, which have always relied on images of depth for expression.
One of postmodernism's more doubtful contributions is to have substituted surface for depth, as if theself, with its dreams, passions, ideas, and longings can be so easily abolished.Given that Jake Berthot'srecent work has located and explored depth through images drawn from the natural world, and has found aguide in Emerson, we might let the American philosopher's words orient us in the story of depth in natureand consciousness: "How shallow seemed to me yesterday in the woods the speech one often hears fromtired citizens who have spent their brief enthusiasm for the country, that Nature is tedious, and they have hadenough of green leaves.Nature and the green leaves are a million fathoms deep, and it is their eyes that aresuperficial." This depth of nature is a reservoir of life energy in the words of the Victorian Jesuit poet GerardManley Hopkins: "There lives the dearest freshness deep down things."
The vitalizing depth of nature speaks to the depth of human consciousness, which is not to say that all issunlit.If nature can be dark at night, human depths have their own mirroring and corresponding darkness anddanger.The same poet, Hopkins, put it this way: "O the mind, mind has mountains; cliffs of fall/Frightful,sheer, no-man-fathomed.Hold them cheap/May who never hung there." But whether the imagery is ofdarkness or light, jeopardy (危险) or joy, the conversation between self and nature is reciprocal.
Instead of the viewer's gaze skimming off the surface like a skipped stone as in so much contemporary painting, Jake Berthot's paintings hold you -- stop you and engage you, stir you and disturb you.When youstand in front of one of Berthot's recent paintings, you immediately become aware of depths in the paintingand you are drawn out into them, feel some part of yourself emptying into them.But then the mysteriousmutuality of reverie takes hold into your newly created emptiness; something flows from the painting.Andgradually, steadily, the experience of gazing at the canvas becomes a reciprocal emptying-out and filling,an ebb and flow.Depth speaks to depth.And when at last, after successive, calm, reciprocal emptyings andfillings, you break the spell of the encounter; you emerge changed in some quiet but definite way.
