工业设计将是改变今日国人生活方式的重要力量之一,至于如何改变以及工业设计应该怎样调动有限的资源、需要建立怎样的制度来加以保障等方面,我国的工业设计界仍然存在许多亟待解决的问题。对此,资深的工业设计家柳冠中先生会告诉我们更多,我们通过对他的访谈也会获得更深刻的启示。向广大读者介绍中国的美术家是本栏目的工作重点。本期我们则邀请段君做了一次关于海外华人艺术家的访谈,以期对文化差异环境下华人艺术家的生存状态作一番深入观察。这个话题不仅仅是“时势造英雄”一句老话那么简单。 Industrial design will be one of the most important forces to change the lifestyle of today’s Chinese people. As for how to change and how industrial design should mobilize limited resources and what kind of system needs to be established to ensure it, there are still many problems to be solved in China’s industrial design community problem. In response, Mr. Liu Guanzhong, a veteran industrial designer, will tell us more and we will get more profound revelations through his interviews. Introducing Chinese artists to our readers is the focus of this column. In this issue, we invited Duan Jun to give an interview with overseas Chinese artists in order to make some in-depth observations on the living conditions of Chinese artists under culturally diverse circumstances. This topic is not just an old saying of “making the hero of the times.”
