作为全球首家关注叙事艺术价值和影响力的博物馆，美国卢卡斯叙事艺术博物馆近日发布最新动态。博物馆馆长及首席执行官桑德拉·杰克逊·杜蒙女士透露：位于洛杉矶博览会公园、占地30万平方英尺（27,870平方米）、五层高的博物馆正有序施工中，正逐步与景观和合成11英亩（4.45公顷）的园区。另外，馆藏也正稳步增加。卢卡斯叙事艺术博物馆将于2025年建成使用。

The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art today announced the latest details in creating this new institution–the first of its kind devoted to the meaning and impact of narrative art–now being constructed in Los Angeles’s Exposition Park. Sandra Jackson-Dumont, Director and Chief Executive Officer, revealed major milestones now achieved in constructing the five-story, 300,000-square-foot building, developing the park and gardens integrated into the 11-acre campus, and expanding the museum’s collection, all leading toward the opening in 2025.

“It’s humbling and energizing to see how all aspects of this new public resource are taking shape,” said Jackson-Dumont. “We believe that narrative art can connect us and help shape a more just society. As a result, every element of this institution contributes to that idea—the site is one physical manifestation of that. The campus with its iconic building and arched belly that creates a canopy, coupled with the 200-plus trees taking root in the park, together create another community gathering place with much needed shade for our neighbors and others who will use the site. Another manifestation of that idea is the museum’s wonderfully evolving collection of narrative art that features multifaceted perspectives through the stories humans have told throughout history. Through these works, we hope to ignite complex and nuanced conversation that may impact the ways folks understand the world, but perhaps even what they decide to do in the world. We’re thrilled to share this significant progress, and I look forward to keeping the public informed as we forge ahead.”

正逐步成形的11英亩园区
The 11-Acre Campus Comes to Life

博物馆位于占地11英亩的园区中心，由马岩松/MAD建筑事务所主持设计、迈克尔·西格尔带领的斯坦特克事务所(Stantec)执行设计。

At the center of the museum’s 11-acre campus is the innovative building designed by Ma Yansong of MAD Architects with Michael Siegel of Stantec as executive architect. Taking inspiration from large trees in Exposition Park, which provide places of shelter and gathering, Ma envisioned the building as an extension of that tree canopy, lifting at its center to create a gathering space in the central plaza. To realize the building’s organic, biomorphic surface, the structure will be clad in more than 1,500 curved fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP) panels, each uniquely shaped and placed to create the whole. In a major construction milestone, installation has now begun of these panels, which are now being fitted onto the southern façade.

博览会公园原有的大树为公众提供了遮阴乘凉和聚会的场所，也为马岩松提供了灵感。马岩松设想园区中心的新建筑将成为大树树冠的延伸；另外通过抬升建筑首层中心空间，为地面创造一片开阔的新城市公共空间。

The Lucas Museum’s park and gardens, designed by Mia Lehrer of Studio-MLA, will provide an expansive, multilayered experience fully integrated with the building, which will be heavily programmed for museum audiences and the local community. The 11-acre museum campus replaces an asphalt parking lot and opens and activates Exposition Park’s western edge for the neighboring community by creating new access points into the park.

为了实现建筑极具生命力的有机外表皮，最终幕墙将通过1500多块形态不一的FRP曲板来实现。FRP幕墙安装工作已经开始，现正进行南面幕墙的安装。

In another milestone for the Lucas Museum, the first of more than 200 trees are now being put into the ground which will change visually with the seasons, offering new experiences during each visit to the Lucas Museum. Whereas water runoff from the previous asphalt parking lot went into the city sewer system, the museum’s new landscaping uses a rain-harvesting system to capture water for irrigation. Other major architectural features of the park and gardens, including the amphitheater, hanging garden, and pedestrian bridge, are also now taking shape.

博物馆的景观由MLA事务所的Mia Lehrer设计，将为博物馆的观众和当地社区提供与建筑相融、开放且多元的体验：原来的沥青停车场被占地11英亩的博物馆园区取代；博物馆将作为园区的新门户，向邻近社区开放，实现激活博览会公园西侧的效果。

As a core element of its construction program, the Lucas Museum has worked closely with its contractor, Hathaway Dinwiddie, and the City of L.A. to set and meet ambitious goals for local hiring and for increasing the pipeline for subcontracting with businesses owned by women, minorities, and veterans. Through robust community outreach efforts in partnership with Slate Z, L.A.

另外，首批200多棵树现已种植，将随季节变化呈现不同的视觉效果。停车场原有水径现已进入城市下水道系统，新园区将采用雨水收集系统来集水灌溉。景观其他亮点还包括露天剧场、飘浮花园和人行桥，现已初具规模。

Trade-Tech, the City of L.A., local unions, and other workforce development nonprofits, the building project to date has employed more than 4,200 workers, more than 60% of whom live in Los Angeles County.

打造以故事说话的馆藏
Creating a Collection Made of Stories

卢卡斯叙事艺术博物馆的馆藏，种类多样，从古罗马马赛克壁画、到文艺复兴画作、再到当代摄影，不同艺术媒介展现着多元文化，充分展示了馆藏对于不同主题和角度的多维度探索。

Spanning from ancient Roman mosaics to Renaissance painting to contemporary photography, and representing diverse cultures and artistic media, the museum’s collection demonstrates the breadth of themes and viewpoints with which narrative art can engage dynamic and diverse publics.

博物馆的首席策展人、展览及馆藏副总监皮拉尔·汤普金斯·里瓦斯说：“大家可以通过叙事艺术，去感受和触碰与自己不一样的时代、地区和文化。叙事艺术同时能够挑战社会信仰和价值观，就如博物馆2021年收藏的，由罗伯特·科尔斯科特创作的《乔治·华盛顿·卡佛横渡特拉华河：美国历史教科书的一页》(1975年)所展现的一样。” 另外新增的馆藏包括：《致自由》系列的《致自由II》（汉克·威利斯·托马斯、艾米莉·夏尔与“致自由”平台的埃里克·戈特斯曼、怀特·格拉里合作，2018年），卡迪尔·尼尔森创作的《艺术鉴赏家》（2019年）。这两件作品都是对诺曼·洛克威尔作品（卢卡斯博物馆收藏了此艺术家的大量作品）的当代回应。卡拉·罗梅罗创作的《最后的印第安市场》（2015），照片中一群美国现代原住民艺术家按照达芬奇《最后的晚餐》风格摆拍，二次创作了这一经典的社会神话影像，借此反映人类的多元性及复杂性。

“Through narrative art, people from every age and background can find connections between their lives and the lives of others across eras, cultures, and regions of the globe,” said Pilar Tompkins Rivas, Chief Curator and Deputy Director of Curatorial and Collections. Narrative art has an incredible capacity to challenge the beliefs and values of a society as can be seen in George Washington Carver Crossing the Delaware: Page from an American History Textbook (1975) by Robert Colescott, which the Lucas Museum brought into the collection in 2021. Other additions to the collection like For Freedoms’ (Hank Willis Thomas and Emily Shur in collaboration with Eric Gottesman and Wyatt Gallery of For Freedoms) For Freedoms II (2018) and Kadir Nelson’s Art Connoisseurs (2019), both contemporary responses to Norman Rockwell’s well-known works—of which the Lucas Museum collection also has deep holdings, along with Cara Romero’s The Last Indian Market (2015), a photograph of contemporary Native artists posed in the style of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, reimagine societal visual mythologies to reflect our diversity and complexity.

叙事艺术的主要功能之一，是表达和传播社会信仰和价值观，这一点在老卢卡斯·克拉纳赫的《所罗门的审判》（1526年）中得到体现。藏品中其他讲述圣经或宗教传说的作品还包括：归功于阿特米谢·简特内斯基和奥诺弗里奥·帕伦博的《伽拉忒亚的胜利》（约1650年）；约翰·辛格·萨金特的《委拉斯凯兹之后的宫娥图》（1879年），是在迭戈·委拉斯凯兹的原作诞生200多年后绘制的副本，充分显现故事如何跨越国界和时代产生共鸣。博物馆收藏了厄尼·巴恩斯大量作品，他创造了多幅二十世纪最具代表性的关于美国黑人生活的作品，包括《鼓手长》（2003）。

One of the principal functions of narrative art—to express and transmit the beliefs and values of a society—is exemplified in the addition of The Judgment of Solomon (1526) by Lucas Cranach the Elder. This reverent visual narrative joins other works in the collection that tell stories from the Bible or religious lore, such as Triumph of Galatea (c. 1650) attributed to Artemesia Gentileschi and Onofrio Palumbo. Another addition to the collection that speaks to how stories continue to resonate over centuries and across borders is John Singer Sargent’s Las Meninas, After Velásquez (1879), a copy painted more than 200 years after Diego Velázquez’s original. The Lucas Museum collection also has deep holdings of work by Ernie Barnes, who created some of the twentieth century’s most iconic images of African American life, including The Drum Major (2003).

量产量销的年代为视觉叙事的传播带来全新意义。以此为基础创作的作品表明，物质文化中广泛传播的物品以及商业化图像，具有广泛的社会影响力。博物馆针对载体为漫画、书籍和杂志的原创作品馆藏非常丰富，最近新增馆藏包括亚历克斯·雷蒙德的《飞侠哥顿》第1期（1933年）；杰米·赫南德兹的另类漫画《爱与火箭》（2010年），这是他与兄弟吉尔伯特和马里奥创作了超过40年的作品；杰里·平克尼创作的儿童插画书《黑牛仔，野马：一个真实的故事》（1998年）；魏硕悠·爱维特利《在山脚下》（2019年），讲述了一位纳瓦霍族二战飞行员的故事。克里·詹姆斯·马歇尔的《节奏大师每日连载》（2018年）则展示了艺术家对美国主流漫画中缺少黑人超级英雄、黑人角色和黑人场景的回应。

The era of mass production and distribution brought new uses and meanings for the transmission of visual narratives. Works created for mass reproduction point to the broad societal reach and impact of widely circulated objects from material culture as well as commercialized images. Additions to the museum’s extensive collection of original works created for comics, books, and magazines include Alex Raymond’s Flash Gordon issue number 1 (1933), Jaime Hernandez’s alt comic Love and Rockets (2010), which he created over 40 years with his brothers Gilbert and Mario, and children’s book illustrations by Jerry Pinkney for Black Cowboy, Wild Horses: A True Story (1998) and Weshoyot Alvitre for At the Mountain’s Base (2019), her book about a Navajo World War II pilot. The addition of Kerry James Marshall’s RHYTHM MASTR Daily Strip (Runners) (2018) to the collection presents the artist’s response to the absence of black superheroes, characters, and environments in mainstream comics.
