Who Was Hundertwasser?
Artist & architect Friedrich Stowasser (1928 – 2000) changed his name to Friedensreich Regentag Dunkelbunt Hundertwasser which roughly translates as ‘Peace-rich or Peaceful, Rainy day, Darkly multicolored, Hundred water.’ Hundertwasser had an Austrian Catholic father who died when he was a small child and a Jewish mother. He and his mother escaped the fate of much of her family by posing as Catholics.
He traveled extensively as a young man and enrolled at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris, but left after a day. For years he lived, traveled the world, and painted on a reconstructed salt hauler sailboat which he called the “Regentag” (rainy day). He also owned a farm cottage in northern France and a cabin in New Zealand. Hundertwasser felt a special connection to New Zealand, and was buried there when he died in the year 2000.
“当人们认为他必须纠正自然时,这每次都是一个不可挽回的错误。一个社区不应该把破坏多少自然植被视为一种荣誉;尽可能多地保护自然景观应该是每个社区的荣誉。小溪,河流,沼泽,河边的湿地,上帝创造它们的方式,对我们来说必须是神圣的,不可侵犯的。纠正一条河流只会带来邪恶的后果,而这些后果的最终代价是昂贵的:降低地下水位,破坏森林,把大片地区变成草原,不能再生水,因为水流失得太快了。河流湿地再也不能履行海绵的功能:吸收多余的水,在干旱时期缓慢反馈,就像紧急情况下的一个好的存钱罐。经过整治的小溪变成了下水道。鱼死了,小溪里没有鱼,因为它们不能游过管制的水道。洪水及其毁灭性的后果,在调控之后更加严重。因为太多的水流失得太快,大量聚集在一起,没有任何机会被地球和植被吸收。 Only a stream with a high waterline flowing irregularly can produce pure water, regulate the water household and conserve the fish and animal populations to the benefit of man and his agriculture. Now, almost too late, this age-old adage is being recognised and the courses of rivers and streams, which had been straightened in concrete channels, are being destroyed in order to restore the previous irregular state. What irony! So why regulate a stream if you have to deregulate it afterwards?”

Love it; do you know where I can find the documentary in its entirety?

似乎有三部关于汉德瓦塞尔生平的纪录片,都是由费里·雷达克斯在1966年和1998年拍摄的。更知名的纪录片短片:1972年由彼得·沙摩尼(Peter Schamoni)执导的《百人摄政》(Hunderwassers Regentag)。恐怕我找不到看待它的方法。Here is the FB page for the movie though:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Hundertwassers-Rainy-Day/124331877653551
