Representing the idea of humanity's self-importance, the senselessly destructive culmination of our ingenious technologies, is a symbol of futility embodied by the human figure seen fitted with a mechanical, wheeled prosthetic. Hugh Hubris is the name I've given this legless figure mounted to a machine that it cranks to turn endless circles around a fixed, immovable block ('so to better survey the breadth of its domain'). This sad, spinning figure symbolizes functioning futility, it represents humanity's self-limiting conceit and the destructive consequences. It was once generally believed that the Sun orbited around the Earth only to eventually be disproved by science. Hugh Hubris, who is so arrogant that he made certain he could only revolve around himself, stands as a reminder of human egoism. 'The Happy War' is my rebuttal to a worldview that seeks to subjugate Nature to human will, to consume it without thought of the consequences.

克里斯托弗布朗是一位当代美国艺术家。布朗的世界观受到了自然的轻柔但实质上的启发,因此,他的生活和艺术都以自然为指导。他的创作过程在向外凝视和向内转之间交替。多年观察和分析自然界变化和衰退的原因和影响,让他清楚地意识到我们已经和继续对地球造成的损害。他的艺术为他提供了出口和解毒剂(在他的寓言、快乐战争绘画和他的抽象作品之间转换)。
向内转身,沉浸在抽象表现主义中,为他提供了安慰。在他的作品中探索形状、颜色和线条的重复,以及在他的艺术中解析层次和视觉空间,是他摆脱世界重压的口头禅。他开始将他的抽象画视为“眼睛的音乐”,其中形状、颜色和线条完全是表现主义的音符,偶尔会与具象的画面混合,似乎是诗意的歌词。
克里斯托弗·布朗出生在美国。布朗参加了纽约奥尼昂塔哈特威克学院的艺术课程,并在那里获得了学士学位。然后,他去了密苏里州圣路易斯的华盛顿大学,并在那里获得了硕士学位。
