1948年，23歲的藝術家瓊·米切爾住在巴黎一間通風不良的公寓裡。二戰結束後，她來到了法國，而當時的國家仍飽受糧食短缺和暴動的困擾。米切爾剛從芝加哥藝術學院畢業，來到巴黎學習法國繪畫史，並學習大師們的技法，但她發現自己的工作狂精神崩潰，焦慮不安，無暇顧及這座城市熙熙攘攘的社交生活。她夜不能寐，焦灼地試圖提昇技藝，蜷縮在爐子旁取暖。




「我來到了我一直嚮往的地方——爐子旁——麵包、葡萄酒和畫布——我什至沒有感到沮喪——只是真正意識到了自己不屬於哪裡，而這無處不在。」 同年十月，她在給愛人巴尼·羅塞特的信中寫道。米切爾在巴黎的早期感到沮喪，覺得自己“畫得很糟糕”，這或許源於她覺得自己無法與她所欽佩的藝術巨匠們相提並論。青少年時期，米切爾在音樂、舞蹈、體育和藝術的薰陶下長大，並定期前往巴黎藝術學院欣賞塞尚、莫內和梵谷的19世紀傑作。

In 1948, Joan Mitchell was a 23-year-old artist living in a drafty apartment in Paris. She had arrived in France in the aftermath of World War II to a nation that was still reeling from rations and riots. A newly minted graduate of the Art Institute of Chicago, Mitchell had come to Paris to study the history of French painting and learn the techniques of the masters but found that her workaholism had frayed her nerves and rendered her too anxious to take part in the bustling social life of the city. Mitchell spent her nights awake, feverishly trying to improve her craft, huddling around her stove for warmth.

“I’m where I’ve always wanted to be — stove — bread & wine & canvases — I’m not depressed even — just arrived at a real knowledge of where I don’t belong which is everywhere,” she wrote in October of that year in a letter to her lover, Barney Rosset. Mitchell’s frustration during this early period in Paris, when she felt she had “painted terribly,” may have stemmed from her perceived failure to measure up to the artistic giants she so admired. As a teenager, she was raised on a steady regimen of music, dance, sports and art, with regular trips to the Art Institute to see 19th-century masterpieces by Cézanne, Monet and van Gogh.

The Nobel Prize for Literature is yet another step towards immortality for Bob Dylan. The rebellious, reclusive, unpredictable artist/composer is exactly where the Nobel Prize for Literature needs to be.
His gift with words is unsurpassable. Out of my repertoire spanning 60 years, no songs have been more moving and worthy in their depth, darkness, fury, mystery, beauty, and humor than Bob’s. None has been more of a pleasure to sing. None will come again.

"Her voice is as clear as air in the autumn, a vibrant, strong, untrained and thrilling soprano. She wears no makeup and her long black hair hangs like a drapery, parted around her long almond face." http://ti.me/1GU9z7y
