不用去世，作品也能拍天价！
A 3-foot-tall silver bunny just set an art world record.
一只3英尺高的银色兔子刚刚创造了一项艺术界的世界纪录。
Rabbit, by the playful and controversial artist Jeff Koons, sold for more than $91 million at Christie's Auction House — the most for work by a living artist at auction.
有趣而富有争议的艺术家杰夫·昆斯的作品《兔子》在佳士得拍卖行以9100多万美元的价格拍出，这是在世艺术家作品中成交价最高的。
Robert Mnuchin, an art dealer and the father of the Treasury secretary, had the winning bid on behalf of a client.
罗伯特·姆钦是一位艺术品交易商，也是美国财政部长之父，他代表一位客户中了标。
The stainless steel sculpture is a faceless space bunny, a balloon that's not a balloon.
这个不锈钢雕塑是一个没有面孔的太空兔子，一个不是气球的气球。
The piece was one of 11 works that were offered from the collection of magazine publisher S.I. Newhouse, the longtime chairman of Condé Nast who died in 2017.
这幅作品是杂志出版商S.I.纽豪斯提供的11幅作品之一，纽豪斯长期担任康泰纳仕董事长，于2017年去世。
"The work is considered the holy grail of Koons works among certain collecting circles, and the bunny's allure was burnished by the fact that Newhouse was its longtime owner," Artnet writes.
艺术网写道:“在某些收藏圈里，这幅作品被认为是昆斯作品的圣杯，纽豪斯是它的长期主人，这一事实进一步增强了它的吸引力。”
"It also received an extraordinary pre-sale display at Christie's with a custom-built room that perched the rabbit on a pedestal surrounded by lighting mimicking a James Turrell installation."
“这只兔子还在佳士得拍卖行举行了一场非同寻常的售前展示，定制的房间将它安置在一个基座上，周围环绕着模仿詹姆斯·特雷尔作品的灯光。”
In its lot essay, Christie's described
Rabbit as melding "a Minimalist sheen with a naïve sense of play":
克里斯蒂拍卖行在其拍卖文章中称，这只兔子融合了“极简主义的光泽和天真的玩耍感”:
"It is crisp and cool in its appearance, yet taps into the visual language of childhood, of all that is pure and innocent. ”
“它的外表清脆凉爽，但却融入了童年的视觉语言，所有的一切都是纯洁和无辜的。”
“Its lack of facial features renders it wholly inscrutable, but the forms themselves evoke fun and frivolity, an effect heightened by the crimps and dimples that have been translated into the stainless steel from which it has been made. ... ”
“它的面部特征的缺乏使它完全不可预测，但起形式本身又唤起了乐趣和轻松感，这种效果被转化为不锈钢的褶皱和酒窝所强化。”
“The steel surface of the titular bunny initially appears smooth and balloon-like, the forms reduced to some abstract, Platonic ideal."
“这只名义上的兔子的钢铁表面最初看起来很光滑，像气球一样，形态简化为抽象的柏拉图式理想。”
The sculpture was cast in 1986 in an edition of just three, plus an artist's proof.
这座雕塑于1986年铸造，只有三个版本，加上一个艺术家的证明。
The one sold Wednesday was the last one in private hands, with the others in the collections of the Broad Art Foundation in Los Angeles, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and the National Museum of Qatar.
周三售出的这个作品是最后一个私人收藏，其他几个收藏在洛杉矶布罗德艺术基金会、芝加哥当代艺术博物馆和卡塔尔国家博物馆的藏品中。
The sculpture has become something of a cultural icon. Case in point: Rabbit was turned back into a balloon to float above Manhattan in the 2007 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
：这座雕塑已成为某种文化象征。举个例子:在2007年的梅西感恩节游行中，兔子被变回了一个气球漂浮在曼哈顿上空。
