Rondinone has worked with the theme of rainbows for decades. Since 1997 and his first neon work, cry me a river, the artist has created 14 neon rainbow sculptures. As a phenomenon, the rainbow is familiar yet intangible; rarely seen, it is associated with luck and serendipity.
The rainbow can also be seen as a metaphor of Rondinone’s work and mentality: poetic and ungraspable in its stylistic diversity.
数十年来,罗迪纳一直致力于彩虹主题。自1997年以来,他创作了第一幅霓虹灯作品《哭泣的河流》,艺术家共创作了14幅霓虹灯彩虹雕塑。作为一种现象,彩虹既熟悉又无形;少见,人们将它与运气和偶然性相联系起来。
彩虹也可以看作是罗迪纳的创作和心态的隐喻:诗情画意与令人难以捉摸的多样性风格。
