國立故宮博物院 National Palace Museum 新增了 1 張相片。2014年5月12日上午1:00 · 今天要介紹艾雪一件非常經典的作品，而且，它非常具有故事性！
艾雪的魔幻世界畫展【遭遇, Encounter, 1944】
Current Exhibit:【Encounter, 1944】- The Enigma of M.C. Escher: Prints from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem
石版畫 Lithograph, 342 x 467mm… 更多
這幅石版畫的畫面構成從上方的牆面開始，由象徵悲觀的黑色人物與代表樂觀的白色人物所組成，兩種人物鑲嵌為規則性的圖形分割，牆面中的人物漸漸地沿著作品中央的圓弧行走，最後於畫面正前方相遇。
作品印刷之時，由於畫中的人物與當時荷蘭非常受歡迎的首相科萊恩(Hendrikus Colijn,1869-1944)非常相似，因此藝術商對販售此作再三猶豫，但艾雪表示創作時並無此意圖。

This print, executed at the height of World War II, reflects… 更多 the artist’s feelings, struggling between hope and despair. Escher described the depicted scene as a forced encounter between the white optimist and the black pessimist. The figures are marching along a surface surrounding an empty space, into which they are in danger of falling. This threat obliges them to keep moving in a circle toward each other and to shake hands as they meet. The figures emerging from the background illustrate some of Escher's typical themes: They fuse with each other, creating a regular division of the plane; they move in an endless circle; and they are reflected in the gaping space at the center. The viewer is unable to perceive both figures at one and the same time, obliging him to choose between them, and between the worldviews they represent. As the optimistic figure is light and smiling, and the pessimistic one dark and demonic, Escher's guidance of his viewers is clear.
