发帖数: 25262 | 1 華裔設計師劉揚曾經在2007年出版了《東西相遇》一書，引起巨大反響。該書用簡潔的
筆劃，用簡單明瞭的圖畫向讀者表現了德中兩個社會的細節，比如兩國家庭對待孩子的
態度，人們旅遊的方式，雙方的審美觀等等。大部分都是人們的日常經歷，讓德中讀者
們都能引起共鳴。
《東西相遇》是劉揚在中德兩國各生活13年後，在紐約的創作成果。這一系列作品曾受
邀在德國外交部展出，在網上也廣受轉載。
對於劉揚來說，她只是對比兩國的文化生活差異，而並非肯定或者否定其中一方。通過
這些對比，雙方都能更直觀地瞭解對方，也反思自己。由於設計師個人的生活經歷，她
對兩個社會、兩種文化的理解都遊刃有餘，所以她對這些細節的描繪都深刻而獨具一格
的。
華裔女設計師劉揚
劉揚自述：
兩千零三年，我在中國和德國生活的時間正好相同，都是十三年。
同年我搬到紐約並開始了這個系列作品的創作，希望給多年中德的生活與往事作一個視
覺總結。
這是一套關於文化對比的作品，共四十六張圖片，紅色代表中國，藍色代表德國。
創作過程近四年，兩千零三年至零四年首批為十二張，兩千零六年重新創作二十二張，
兩千零七年完成並加入最後的十二張圖片，同年《東西相遇》一書在德國出版。希望這
套作品能夠幫助您瞭解到更多關於中德生活的細節，並更加輕鬆幽默地看待文化差異。

发帖数: 2564 | 12 Again, she can't tell the difference from perception vs. reality.
If this is a real trend, do you think that O8 still need to continue to stir
the pot in the Middle East!?
Looks like she is using German. How many Germans would have a cold dinner
at night? Also, looks like she has never set her foot into a beer hall.
BTW, what was the point of comparing 周日的街景, when majority of the shops
are closed in Germany on Sundays?

发帖数: 25262 | 13 I am sure her audiences are not Ph.D. or post doc who are doing research.
her audiences are the general public.
It's just like every store has a simple phrase or a company logo. Walmart:
Save money. Live better. Target : Expect More. Pay Less. CapitalOne Bank:
What's In Your Wallet?
People are scratching their head off to come up these simple phrases. They
look simple, but actually they are not. Just like the color in the Apple
logo.

but when you put one blue img and one red img together, you have no idea
what comparison she is making here, right?

发帖数: 25262 | 15 You know it's target because you saw the logo before. If you see these
images before, and the second time you encounter again, you know what
exactly the blue and red pics mean. The images are pretty clear about what
the author is trying to express.

I just know that from you...lol..so it does tell something. You don't assume
that other people would have known everything that you know. 周日的街景 is
not new to you, but new to 9 other people. That's the point.
Forget about Obama and the middle east here.

work done by an italian guy showing majority euopean countries vs italian.
to be honest, you can replace china with italy, the message will still be
the same.

Germany - so she knows.
I was going to say 图样图森破, but also saw that she was born in the 70s.
BTW, Mercedes and BMW sent their regards; they are doing fine, thank you.

发帖数: 25262 | 19 A lot of people know the difference, maybe from news, articles, research
papers, all using words to communicate these cultural differences. But
expressing these differences with simple pictures without words is another
form of creativity.
Iphone and Android smart phones are also doing the something, but how to
achieve same goal is very different, of course, you can replace an iphone
with an android.

time ago.
that 图样图森破 is a joke, don't look up to the leaders as in the red
picture.
Nowadays, Mercedes and BMW build and sell more cars in China than in German,
and they may open on Sundays..who knows.
