What does it mean to be lonely? How do we live, if we're not intimately engaged with another human being? How do we connect with other people? Does technology draw us closer together or trap us behind screens?

When Olivia Laing moved to New York City in her mid-thirties, she found herself inhabiting loneliness on a daily basis. Increasingly fascinated by this most shameful of experiences, she began to explore the lonely city by way of art. Moving fluidly between works and lives -- from Edward Hopper's Nighthawks to Andy Warhol's Time Capsules, from Henry Darger's hoarding to the depredations of the AIDS crisis -- Laing conducts an electric, dazzling investigation into what it means to be alone, illuminating not only the causes of loneliness but also how it might be resisted and redeemed.

Humane, provocative and deeply moving, The Lonely City is about the spaces between people and the things that draw them together, about sexuality, mortality and the magical possibilities of art. It's a celebration of a strange and lovely state, adrift from the larger continent of human experience, but intrinsic to the very act of being alive.

读后感

虽然有些冗长,像是文献,但耐心咀嚼,对培养艺术感官的敏感度还是非常受益的。书中以四位不同领域的“大师”为论证背景,对其生活、性格、艺术形式等进行剖析,彰显不同层次、维度、行为的孤独,挖掘每个人怪癖的一面。同时,以与其对应的绘画、图像处理、摄影、小说四种艺术...

首先我是被这本书的书名所深深吸引,我想这对于生活在北上广深一线城市的我们应该都深有感触。身在拥有超过两千万人口的超级都市中,即便在人潮汹涌的地铁高峰期、从火车站准备出行或到达抑或是参加多人聚餐或party,那份孤独感往往扑面而来,把我们裹挟其中。 城市中的孤独犹...

孤独?我不信。即便是一个人吃饭,也有网剧和综艺节目作陪;即便是一个人旅行,也能被随时弹出的群聊消息所打扰;即便是一个人睡觉,还有青蛙可以看两眼,再截个屏,晒个图,撒娇两句。孤独?糟心还来不及呢。 人们似乎很难承认自己孤独,因为承认太残酷。如果碰巧遇上一个没电...

换个角度看这群纽约艺术家

评分

孤独是一座城市,名为孤独的城市,纽约,曼哈顿下城,曼哈顿下城的艺术家,男艺术家。于孤独中创作的艺术家、关于“孤独”的艺术作品和栖身孤独之间的艺术。单身女性作者写男性艺术家的生命故事,用自己此刻的孤独去揣测他们的历史的社会的孤独,孤独私人,孤独普世,孤独是集体症结,孤独作为政治用语。孤独的解药可能不是与某人相遇,或可像《银翼杀手》里的复制人,自己“做”朋友,和自己作朋友。纽约培养漫游者,而漫游本身又严重性别和阶级化,这项活动这个城市总在同一时刻带给我必须快速社交和必须长久自处的双重欲望,而哪一重都使人疲惫和快乐。这书也不新,最近去书店总看到它,随便放着就吸引我眼睛,没忍住找来读了,有些难以称重的失望,却发现【艺术有读】刚更新的一期也在讲它,许是冬天里就需要阅读关于寒冷城市和不幸人群的内容。
