我们对于“长城”这个图像的兴趣来自于它是如此频繁地出现在我们的视线之中,以至于它达到了传播某种意识形态的效果。我们的经验所建立的基础不是长城的本体,而是它被赋予的象征意义。我们往往不假思索地接受了这种象征意义,就像我们对于艺术史的膜拜一样,但忘记了质疑它们存在的基础和意识。这些基础和意识从未远离我们,它们不仅界定着我们的经验,也塑造着我们认识事物的轨迹。它们透明而不可穿越。
Our interest in the image of “Great Wall” came from its frequent presence in our sight. It turned up so frequently that it has promulgated certain ideology. The basis for our experience was not Great Wall but the symbolic significance it was bestowed. We tended to accept its significance without thinking just as we worshiped the art history. The basis for its existence and its ideology were forgotten. The basis and ideology have never left us by not only defining our experience but shaping the way we know everything. They were transparent but insuperable.
