有关自由女神与华尔街金牛的创意说明

    自由女神是灵魂的象征，似乎自由与民主是推动美国成为世界超级大国的主因。但是，近几十年来，美国内部接踵而至的爆发天灾与人祸，尤其是2008年华尔街首爆的经济危机殃至全球，这让全世界对美国的自由和民主的机制表现出深度的质疑和忧虑。

　　其实，二十几年前美国的著名经济学家凯恩斯就断言过美国的自由经济体系将给人类带来巨大的隐患和灾难。于是，我应了凯恩斯的理论，而挪用了美国自由女神和华尔街的金牛，营造出一种“将其矛，攻其盾。”的悖论现实。并且，把自由女神手中的美国宪法置换成凯恩斯的“自由经济学”。以此引发人们对世界经济危机之根源的追问，反思和批判。

        The Statue of Liberty is the symbol of the American spirit, and it almost seems that freedom and democracy are the principle causes made the United States the superpower. But during the last decades, there are many natural and human disasters occurred in the country, especially the economic crisis started from Wall Street in 2008, which affected the whole world; these have raised many concerns internationally on the freedom and democracy system that the American always preaches about.

　　In fact, John Maynard Keynes-the most brilliant economist of the 20th century has expressed his doubts and concerns on American's liberal economy system and the risks and hazards it would bring to our world. Thereupon, in the light of Keynes's theory, I take the figures of Statue of Liberty and the Charging Bull of Wall Street to create the paradox of “trying to pierce a man's wonderful shield with his own marvelous spear”. I have also replaced the Constitution of the United States in the hand of the statue with a book of Keynes' Liberal Economist. Whereby, I want to initiate the public to think about the origin of this crisis, to reflect and criticize.
