Man is used to the fact that there are languages which he does not at first understand and which must be learned, but because art is primarily visual he expects that he should get the message immediately and is apt to be affronted if he doesn't.

  • -- Edward Hall 爱德华·霍尔

人类习惯了这样一个事实:有些语言是他一开始不懂的,而且必须学习,但因为艺术主要是视觉的,他希望自己应该立即得到信息,如果他不懂,就很容易被冒犯。
