And that's her new company.

那是她的新公司

This is my wife, Portia de Rossi.

这位是我老婆 波西娅·德·罗西

And Portia studied art in college.

波西娅大学学的是艺术

That's what you were-- Yes.

你那时候 对的

I studied art school. Been a huge art lover my whole life.

我上的是艺术学校 这一生都非常喜爱艺术

And I've always been interested in business.

而且我也一直对商业很感兴趣

So I thought that I would start an art curation and publishing company, which I call General Public.

所以我想成立一家艺术屏模和出版公司 我给它起名为General Public

And we print paintings, basically.

其实我们就是打印画作的

352.png

So, rather than the traditional flat print that kind of looks like a poster,

与传统的看起来像海报的平面打印不同

we print with all the texture and articulation that's in the original painting.

我们会打印出原画的所有纹理和衔接

So it's actually very hard to tell the difference between a Synograph, which is our print, and an original painting.

所以很难区分我们的作品Synograph和原画之间的区别

Like, impossible. You can't tell. It's 3D.

真的不可能 你看不出来 是3D打印的

There's the texture of the art.

艺术品的纹理都有

And she has a website, generalpublic.art, that you can go on and buy art.

她还有自己的网站 generalpublic.art 大家可以到那里去买艺术品

And it's obviously artists.

很明显 是艺术家

What's great about it, too, is that she's helping--

还有一点很棒的是 她在帮助

that's a beautiful piece that she's selling--

那是她在卖的漂亮的作品

there are artists all over the world that are struggling.

全世界有很多艺术家们都过的很拮据

And they're amazing artists.

他们都是很优秀的艺术家

And they sell one piece, and that's it.

他们同一件作品只能卖一次就没了

But what she's doing is she buys the piece, she copies it, it's available for sale, and this artist gets royalties.

她所做的事就是把这些作品买过来 进行复制 然后出售 而这名艺术家会得到稿酬

They get a payment every single time someone buys a piece of art.

每有人买一次作品 艺术家就会有一笔收入

So that you're helping-- Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

所以你是在帮助 对 对 对

Being an artist myself, I have seen technology change art form, and how it relates to people.

我本人就是名艺术家 我看到科技改变了技术 还有它对人的影响

And painting just seemed like it was still kind of, really, archaic

而且感觉画画非常 老旧

in that the painter spend so much time creating one piece, and then they sell it to one person.

因为画家花了那么多时间完成一件作品 却只能把它卖给一个人

So this kind of enables them to make more sales.

所以这种形式可以让他们卖出更多份

So we say, support artists, not art. Right. Which is our motto.

所以我们说支持艺术家 而不是艺术 对 这是我们的格言

And what's great about it is, right away, everybody in the art world has been interested.

这个很棒的一点是 现在 世界上很多艺术家们都感兴趣

So, like I said, she can't just print anything.

所以 就像我说过的 她不可能什么都打印的

She has to have permission from the artist.

她必须得获得艺术家的同意

But RH Modern-- which, you keep saying everyone knows what RH Modern--

不过RH 你一直说大家都知道RH是什么

Restoration Hardware.

雷斯托奥里欣五金公司

Restoration Hardware Modern, has her line.

雷斯托奥里欣五金公司有她的位置

It's available now. You can go on catalogue or go in the stores.

现在就可以买了 大家可以去看下目录或者到店里去

That piece that is on the set, right now, that is available at RH Modern, which is fantastic.

现在在RH能买到的作品真的特别好

I just saw that for the first time today.

我今天是第一次看到这个

But, in your close up, and the texture is amazing.

不过 给你总结一下 质地真的很棒

And then we have a little video that RH Modern has put out.

然后我们有个RH推出的小视频

And so the stuff that's available at Restoration Hardware Modern is different than what's available on her website.

在RH出售的产品跟她网站上的东西不太一样

So they're two different styles, modern and more-- there's-- anyway.

是两种不同的风格 现代和更 总之

Let's look at a tiny. Thank you.

我们来看一小段 谢谢

I'm just so proud of her. She's worked so hard on this.

我很为她骄傲 她在这上面花了大功夫

And she's so talented, and has created something that's really, really special.

她特别有天赋 创造了很多很特别的东西

So here's a little piece of what's on Restoration Hardware Modern website.

这里有一小段RH上卖的东西的视频

Our goal is to take one artist's work, to scan it, and then reproduce it as closely as possible to the original.

我们的目标就是把一名艺术家的作品扫描 然后尽可能复制的与原画一样

And we did it. Capturing all the brushstrokes, bringing all of the texture there, and experiencing a painting as it was painted.

我们做到了 捕捉到了一笔一划 复制了所有纹理 就像重新画了一遍一样

And it elicits that feeling, that emotion that you get when you look at an original work of art.

它能让你产生和看到原画时一样的感觉和情感

So, not just one person can own it, but as many people who want to own it can own it and enjoy it the way it was intended.

所以 不止一个人可以拥有它 任何想要的人都可以拥有它 欣赏它

I hope you're rolling, 'cause this is gold.

但愿你录下来了 因为我感觉还不错

Right? So, yeah. Yeah.

是吗?对 是

RH have been amazing partners, actually.

They saw the technology. And they saw the need for it in the market.

And they've really supported us. So it's really exciting.

And I just think it's amazing, too, because all you've known your entire life is acting.

我也觉得很棒 因为你这一生唯一懂的就是演戏

That's all you've known. And you took a chance.

那是你唯一了解的事 现在你想冒险试一下

And you decided, I'm going to try a whole new thing that I've never done.

你决定 我想去做一些从来没有做过的新鲜事

And you learned.

You've worked hard to learn the business part of it. And--

You know, I see a lot of women in their mid-40s,

kind of thinking about the next stage of their lives.
