Ursus Wehrli: Tidying up art

Translator: Ann Throp Reviewer:

My name is Ursus Wehrli, and I would like to talk to you this morning

Ang pangalan ko ay Ursus Wehrli, at ibig kong makipag-usap sa iyo ngayong umaga

about my project, Tidying Up Art.

tungkol sa aking proyekto, Pag-ayos ng Sining.

First of all -- any questions so far?

Bago ang lahat -- may mga tanong ba?

First of all, I have to say I'm not from around here.

Bago ang lahat, kailangan kong sabihin na hindi ako taga rito.

I'm from a completely different cultural area, maybe you noticed?

Nagmula ako sa kaiba-ibang kultura, baka napansin ninyo?

I mean, I'm wearing a tie, first. And then secondly, I'm a little bit nervous

Ibig kong sabihin, unang-una naka-kurbata ako. At pangalawa, medyo ninenerbiyos ako

because I'm speaking in a foreign language,

dahil nagsasalita ako sa wikang dayuhan,

and I want to apologize in advance, for any mistakes I might make.

at gusto kong humingi ng paunang paumanhin, para sa anumang pagkakamaling magawa ko.

Because I'm from Switzerland, and I just don't hope you think this is Swiss German

dahil taga Switzerland ako, at sana huwag niyong pagkamalang ito ay German

I'm speaking now here. This is just what it sounds like

Ako ay nagsasalita ngayon dito. Ganito lang talaga ang pakinig nito

if we Swiss try to speak American.

kapag tayong Swiss ay sumubok magsalitang Amerikano.

But don't worry -- I don't have trouble with English, as such.

Pero huwag mag-alala -- wala akong problema sa Ingles, bilang tulad.

I mean, it's not my problem, it's your language after all.

Ibig kong sabihin, hindi ko problema iyan, wika ninyo iyan matapos ang lahat.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

I am fine. After this presentation here at TED, I can simply go back to Switzerland,

OK lang ako. Pagkatapos nitong pagpapakilala ng TED dito, babalik lamang ako sa Switzerland,

and you have to go on talking like this all the time.

at kayo ay kailangan pa rin magasalita ng ganito lagi.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

So I've been asked by the organizers to read from my book.

Kaya ako ay hinilingan ng mga organiser na magbasa ng aking libro.

It's called "Tidying Up Art" and it's, as you can see,

Ang pamagat nito ay Pag-ayos ng Sining at ito, tulad ng nakikita mo,

it's more or less a picture book.

ito ay higit kulang isang larawan na libro.

So the reading would be over very quickly.

Kaya matatapos kaagad ang pagbabasa.

But since I'm here at TED, I decided to hold my talk here in a more modern way,

Pero dahil nandito ako na TED, nagpasiya akong gawin dito ang aking pagsalita sa isang modernong paraan,

in the spirit of TED here, and I managed to do some slides here for you.

sa espirito ng TED dito, at nakagawa ako ng ilang "slides" dito para sa inyo.

I'd like to show them around so we can just, you know --

Gusto ko sanang pagpasa-pasahin ninyo para makita, alam ninyo --

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Actually, I managed to prepare for you some enlarged pictures -- even better.

Meron rin akong inihanda na mga pinalaking larawan -- mas mabuti.

So Tidying Up Art, I mean, I have to say, that's a relatively new term.

Kaya Pag-ayos ng Sining, ibig kong sabihin, kailangan kong sabihin, iyan ay medyo bagong salita.

You won't be familiar with it.

Hindi pa kayo pamilyar dito.

I mean, it's a hobby of mine that I've been indulging in for the last few years,

Ibig kong sabihin, ito ay libangan ko na aking pinagkaabalahan nitong mga nakaraan na taon,

and it all started out with this picture of the American artist, Donald Baechler

at ito ay lahat nagsimula dito sa larawan ng Amerikanong pintor, si Donald Baechler

I had hanging at home. I had to look at it every day

na nakasabit sa dingding ng bahay ko. Kailangan ko itong tingnan araw-araw

and after a while I just couldn't stand the mess anymore

at pagkatapos dumating ang panahon na hindi ko na matiis ang gulo

this guy was looking at all day long.

na tinititigan ng lalaki ito ng buong araw.

Yeah, I kind of felt sorry for him.

Oo, medyo naawa ako sa kaniya.

And it seemed to me even he felt really bad

At sa tingin ko masama din ang nadama niya

facing these unorganized red squares day after day.

humaharap sa mga nakakalat na pulang kuwadrado araw-araw.

So I decided to give him a little support,

Kaya nagpasiya akong bigyan siya ng kaunting alalay,

and brought some order into neatly stacking the blocks on top of each other.

at dinalhan ko ng kaayusan sa pagpatong-patong ng mga bloke nang patayo.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah. And I think he looks now less miserable.

Oo. Sa tingin ko, mukha na siyang hindi masyadong miserable.

And it was great. With this experience, I started to look more closely

At ang galing nito. Dahil sa karanasan na ito, nag-umpisa akong tumingan ng mas malapit

at modern art. Then I realized how, you know, the world of modern art

sa modernong sining. Pagkatapos, naunawaan ko, alam mo, ang mundo ng modernong sining

is particularly topsy-turvy.

ay talagang walang kaayusan.

And I can show here a very good example.

At maipapakita ko sa inyo ang napaka buting halimbawa.

It's actually a simple one, but it's a good one to start with.

Ito ay simple lamang, pero mabuti gawing pag-uumpisa.

It's a picture by Paul Klee.

Ito ay larawan gawa ni Paul Klee.

And we can see here very clearly, it's a confusion of color.

At makikita natin ng maliwanag, ito ay kaguluhan ng kulay.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah. The artist doesn't really seem to know where to put the different colors.

Oo, Mukhang hindi alam ng pintor kung saan ilalagay ang iba't-ibang kulay.

The various pictures here of the various elements of the picture --

Ang iba't-ibang larawan dito ng ibat-ibang elemento ng larawan --

the whole thing is unstructured.

lahat ay walang kaayusan.

We don't know, maybe Mr. Klee was probably in a hurry, I mean --

Hindi natin alam, siguro nagmamadali lamang si Ginoong Klee, ibig kong sabihin --

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

-- maybe he had to catch a plane, or something.

-- siguro kailangan na siyang sumakay sa eroplano, o anuman.

We can see here he started out with orange,

Makikita natin dito na nagsimula siya sa orange,

and then he already ran out of orange,

tapos naubusan na siya ng orange,

and here we can see he decided to take a break for a square.

at dito makikita natin na nagpasiya siyang magpahinga para sa isang kuwadrado.

And I would like to show you here my tidied up version of this picture.

at gusto kong ipakita sa inyo ang aking maayos na salin ng larawang ito.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

We can see now what was barely recognizable in the original:

Makikita natin ngayon ang anong hindi halos makilala sa orihinal:

17 red and orange squares are juxtaposed with just two green squares.

17 pula at orange na kuwadrado ang naka parisukat sa dalawa lamang luntian na kuwadrado.

Yeah, that's great.

Oo, iyan ay kahanga-hanga.

So I mean, that's just tidying up for beginners.

Kaya ibig kong sabihin, iyan ay pag-aayos lamang para sa mga baguhan.

I would like to show you here a picture which is a bit more advanced.

Gusto kong magpakita sa inyo ng larawan na medyo mas masulong.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

What can you say? What a mess.

Anong masasabi niyo? Ang gulo.

I mean, you see, everything seems to have been scattered aimlessly around the space.

Ibig kong sabihin, tingnan niyo, mukhang pinagsalpak-salpak lamang lahat kung saan-saan sa puwang.

If my room back home had looked like this,

Kung ganito ang itsura ng kuwarto ko sa bahay,

my mother would have grounded me for three days.

hindi ako pinalabas ng bahay ng tatlong araw ng nanay ko.

So I'd like to -- I wanted to reintroduce some structure into that picture.

Kaya ibig ko -- ibig kong magpasok muli ng kaunting kaayusan sa larawan na iyan.

And that's really advanced tidying up.

At iyan ang talagang masulong na pag-aayos.

(Applause)

(Palakpakan)

Yeah, you're right. Sometimes people clap at this point,

Oo, tama kayo. Minsan nagpapalakpakan ang mga tao pagdating dito

but that's actually more in Switzerland.

pero mas marami pa iyan sa Switzerland.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

We Swiss are famous for chocolate and cheese. Our trains run on time.

Kaming mga Swiss ay sikat para sa tsokolate at keso. Ang aming mga tren ay tumatakbo sa oras.

We are only happy when things are in order.

Masaya lang kami kapag maayos ang mga bagay.

But to go on, here is a very good example to see.

Pero sa pagpapatuloy, heto ang isang mabuting halimbawa para makita.

This is a picture by Joan Miro.

Ito ay larawan na gawa ni Joan Miro.

And yeah, we can see the artist has drawn a few lines and shapes

At oo, makikita natin na ang pintor ay gumuhit ng ilang mga linya at hugis

and dropped them any old way onto a yellow background.

at inihulog lang ito sa kahit anong paraan sa dilaw na likuran.

And yeah, it's the sort of thing you produce when you're doodling on the phone.

Oo, ito ang bagay na gagawin mo kapag ikaw ay gumuguhit habang nasa telepono.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

And this is my --

At ito ang aking --

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

-- you can see now the whole thing takes up far less space.

-- makikita ninyo ngayon na ang kabuuan ay gumagamit ng mas kaunting puwang.

It's more economical and also more efficient.

Ito ay mas matipid at mas episyente.

With this method Mr. Miro could have saved canvas for another picture.

Sa paraang ito, si Ginoong Miro ay makakatipid ng kambas para sa isa pang larawan.

But I can see in your faces that you're still a little bit skeptical.

Pero nakikita ko sa mukha ninyo na kayo ay may kaunti pang pagduda.

So that you can just appreciate how serious I am about all this,

Para mapahalagahan ninyo kung gaano akong kaseriyoso sa lahat na ito,

I brought along the patents, the specifications for some of these works,

Dinala ko ang mga patente, ang mga detalye para sa mga gawaing ito.

because I've had my working methods patented

dahil ang aking mga paraan ng gawain ay napa patente ko na

at the Eidgenössische Amt für Geistiges Eigentum in Bern, Switzerland.

sa Eidgenössische Amt für Geistiges Eigentum sa Bern, Switzerland.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

I'll just quote from the specification.

Uulitin ko lang ang nasa detalye.

"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht --"

"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht --"

It's not finished yet.

Hindi pa it tapos.

"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht Götz von Ohlenhusen

"Laut den Kunstprüfer Dr. Albrecht Götz von Ohlenhusen

neue Wirkungen zu erzielen möglich wird."

Ja, well I could have translated that, but you would have been none the wiser.

Ja, maaaring isinaling-wika ko iyan, pero kayo ay hindi pa rin magiging mas marunong.

I'm not sure myself what it means but it sounds good anyway.

Hindi rin alo sigurado kung ano ang ibig sabihin nito pero mabuting pakinggan gayon pa man.

I just realized it's important how one introduces new ideas to people,

Ngayon ko lang naunawaan ang kahalagahan kung paanong nagpapakilala ng mga bagong ideya sa mga tao,

that's why these patents are sometimes necessary.

kaya ang pag-patente ay kinakailangan paminsan-minsan.

I would like to do a short test with you.

Gusto kong makipag-subok ng maikli sa inyo.

Everyone is sitting in quite an orderly fashion here this morning.

Maaayos naman ang pagkakaupo ninyong lahat dito ngayong umaga.

So I would like to ask you all to raise your right hand. Yeah.

Kaya paki taas niyo lang ang mga inyong kanang kamay. Oo.

The right hand is the one we write with, apart from the left-handers.

Ang kanang kamay ang ginagamit nating panulat, bukod sa mga kaliwete.

And now, I'll count to three. I mean, it still looks very orderly to me.

Ngayon, Bibilang ako hangang tatlo. Ibig kong sabihin, mukhang maayos pa naman ito.

Now, I'll count to three, and on the count of three

Ngayon, bibilang ako hanggang tatlo, at sa pangatlong bilang

I'd like you all to shake hands with the person behind you. OK?

Gusto kong kamayan ninyo ang taong nakaupo sa likod niyo. OK?

One, two, three.

Isa, dalawa, tatlo.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

You can see now, that's a good example: even behaving in an orderly, systematic way

Kita ninyo, iyan ay mabuting halimbawa: kahit kumilos ng maayos, masistemang paraan

can sometimes lead to complete chaos.

ay minsan ang kinalalabasan ay buong kaguluhan.

So we can also see that very clearly in this next painting.

Kaya makikita rin natin iyan ng malinaw sa susnod na larawan.

This is a painting by the artist, Niki de Saint Phalle.

Itong larawan ay gawa ng pintor na si Niki de Saint Phalle.

And I mean, in the original it's completely unclear to see

At ibig kong sabihin, sa orihinal ito ay lubos na hindi malinaw na nakikita

what this tangle of colors and shapes is supposed to depict.

kung ano itong pinagbuhol-buhol na mga kulay at hugis ang dapat ilarawan.

But in the tidied up version, it's plain to see that it's a sunburnt woman playing volleyball.

Pero sa naayos na bersiyon, malinaw na nakikita na ito ay isang babaeng sunog sa araw na naglalaro ng balibol.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah, it's a -- this one here, that's much better.

Oo, ito ay -- itong nandidito, iyan ay masmabuti.

That's a picture by Keith Haring.

Iyan ay larawan na gawa ni Keith Haring.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

I think it doesn't matter.

Sa tingin ko, hindi na bale.

So, I mean, this picture has not even got a proper title.

Kaya, ibig kong sabihin, itong larawan ay wala man lang tamang pamagat.

It's called "Untitled" and I think that's appropriate.

Ito ay tinatawag na "Untitled" at sa tingin ko iyan ay nababagay.

So, in the tidied-up version we have a sort of Keith Haring spare parts shop.

Kaya, sa inayos na bersiyon mayroon tayong parang tindahan ng piyesa ni Keith Haring.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

This is Keith Haring looked at statistically.

Ito ay si Keith Haring tinitingnan na pa-istatistika.

One can see here quite clearly,

Makikita ng isa na may kalinawan,

you can see we have 25 pale green elements,

makikita niyo na mayroon tayong 25 na maputlang luntiang elmento,

of which one is in the form of a circle.

na isa dito ay nasa hugis na pabilog.

Or here, for example, we have 27 pink squares with only one pink curve.

O kaya dito, halimbawa, mayroon tayong 27 na kuwadradong rosas na may isa lamang rosas na pakurba.

I mean, that's interesting. One could extend this sort of statistical analysis

Ibig kong sabihin, iyan ay kawili-wili. Maaaring igawad ng isa itong uri ng istatistikang pagsusuri.

to cover all Mr. Haring's various works,

para masakop ang lahat ng ibat-ibang gawain ni Ginoong Haring.

in order to establish in which period the artist favored pale green circles or pink squares.

para matatag kung anong panahon pinapaboran ng pintor ang maputlang luntian o kuwadradong rosas.

And the artist himself could also benefit from this sort of listing procedure

At ang pintor mismo ay makikinabang din sa listaan ng pamaraan na ito

by using it to estimate how many pots of paint he's likely to need in the future.

sa paggamit nito para maestima niya kung gaano karaming timba ng pintura ang kakailanganin niya sa daratin na panahon.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

One can obviously also make combinations.

Walang alinglangan makakagawa rin ang isa ng mga kombinasyon.

For example, with the Keith Haring circles and Kandinsky's dots.

Halimbawa, sa mga bilog ni Keith Haring at tuldok ni Kandinsky.

You can add them to all the squares of Paul Klee.

Maaari niyong ipagsama sa lahat ng kuwadrado ni Paul Klee.

In the end, one has a list with which one then can arrange.

Sa katapusan, magkakaroon ang isa ng listahan na maaaring isaayos.

Then you categorize it, then you file it, put that file in a filing cabinet,

Tapos pag-uri-uriin niyo, tapos salansanin niyo, ilagay ang sinalansan sa isang aparador,

put it in your office and you can make a living doing it.

ilagay sa inyong opisina at maaari ninyo pagkakitaan ang paggawa nito.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah, from my own experience. So I'm --

Oo, sa aking sariling karanasan. Kaya ako'y --

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Actually, I mean, here we have some artists that are a bit more structured. It's not too bad.

Sa totoo, ibig kong sabihin, mayroon tayong mga pintor na mas maayos ng kaunti. Hindi masyadong masama.

This is Jasper Johns. We can see here he was practicing with his ruler.

Ito ay si Jasper Johns. Nakikita natin dito na nagsasanay siyang gumamit ng kaniyang panukat.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

But I think it could still benefit from more discipline.

Pero sa tingin ko puwede pang makinabangan ito sa dagdag na disiplina.

And I think the whole thing adds up much better if you do it like this.

at sa tingin ko ang kabuuan ay dadagdag ng masmabuti kung ganito ang gagawin nyo.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

And here, that's one of my favorites.

Heto, iyan ay isa sa aking paborito.

Tidying up Rene Magritte -- this is really fun.

Pag-ayos kay Rene Magritte -- ito ay nakaka-aliw talaga.

You know, there is a --

Alam niyo, mayroon --

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

I'm always being asked what inspired me to embark on all this.

Natanong na kung ano ang nagpasigla sa akin na pasukin ang lahat na ito.

It goes back to a time when I was very often staying in hotels.

Nabalik sa panahon noong madalas akong tumitira sa mga otel.

So once I had the opportunity to stay in a ritzy, five-star hotel.

Minsan mayroon akong pagkakataon na tumira sa isang pangunahing uring "five-star" otel.

And you know, there you had this little sign --

Alam niyo, meron doong mga maliliit na karatula --

I put this little sign outside the door every morning that read,

Inilalagay ko itong karatula sa labas ng pinto ko tuwing umaga na nababasa,

"Please tidy room." I don't know if you have them over here.

"Paki-ayos ang kuwarto." Hindi ko alam kung mayroon ako nito dito.

So actually, my room there hasn't been tidied once daily, but three times a day.

Sa totoo, hindi nalilinis ang kuwarto ko ng isang beses kundi tatlong beses sa isang araw.

So after a while I decided to have a little fun,

Kaya habang panahon, pinagkatuwaan ko ito.

and before leaving the room each day I'd scatter a few things around the space.

at bago ako umalis ng kuwarto bawat araw, nagkalat ako ng ilang kagamitan sa lugar.

Like books, clothes, toothbrush, etc. And it was great.

Gaya ng mga libro, damit, sipilyo, at iba pa. Ang galing.

By the time I returned everything had always been neatly returned to its place.

Pagbalik ko, lahat ng gamit ay naisauli ng maayos sa kaniyang lugar.

But then one morning, I hang the same little sign onto that picture by Vincent van Gogh.

Pero isang umaga, isinabit ko ang parehong maliit na karatula sa larawan na iyan na gawa ni Vincent Van Gogh.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

And you have to say this room hadn't been tidied up since 1888.

At masasabi ninyo na itong kuwarto ay hindi pa nalilinis mula 1888.

And when I returned it looked like this.

At nang pagbalik ko ito ay nagmukhang ganito.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah, at least it is now possible to do some vacuuming.

Oo, ngayon maaari nang mag-bakyum.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

OK, I mean, I can see there are always people

OK, ibig kong sabihin, nakikita ko na laging may mga tao

that like reacting that one or another picture

na parang umepekto diyan o sa ibang larawan

hasn't been properly tidied up. So we can make a short test with you.

na hindi pa naaayos ng mabuti. Kaya puwede tayong gumawa ng maikling pagsubok.

This is a picture by Rene Magritte,

Ito ay larawan na gawa ni Rene Magritte,

and I'd like you all to inwardly -- like in your head, that is --

at gusto kong sa looban ninyong lahat -- pagisipan ito --

to tidy that up. So it's possible that some of you would make it like this.

na isaayos iyan. Kaya posibleng ang iba sa inyo ay gagawin ng ganito.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah? I would actually prefer to do it more this way.

Oo? Mas gusto ko sana na gawin sa ganitong paraan.

Some people would make apple pie out of it.

Ang ibang tao ay gagawa ng "apple pie" dito.

But it's a very good example to see that the whole work

Pero ito ay mabuting halimbawa para makita na ang buong gawain

was more of a handicraft endeavor that involved the very time-consuming job

ay mas pagsasakit ng pagyari sa kamay na kasangkot ay napaka mabusising trabaho

of cutting out the various elements and sticking them back in new arrangements.

ng pagtanggal ng iba't ibang elemento at pagdikit uli nito sa mga panibagong kaayusan.

And it's not done, as many people imagine, with the computer,

At ito ay hindi gawa, na isip ng maraming tao, sa kompyuter,

otherwise it would look like this.

kung hindi ito ay magmumukhang ganito.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

So now I've been able to tidy up pictures that I've wanted to tidy up for a long time.

Kaya ngayon naayos ko na ang mga larawan na matagal ko nang gustong ayusin.

Here is a very good example. Take Jackson Pollock, for example.

Heto ang mabuting halimbawa. Kunin ang gawa ni Jackson Pollock, halimbawa.

It's -- oh, no, it's -- that's a really hard one.

Ito ay -- o, hindi, ito ay -- iyan ay sobrang hirap.

But after a while, I just decided here to go all the way

Pero habang panahon, nagpasiya ako dito na gawin ng panlahatan

and put the paint back into the cans.

at isauli ang pintura sa mga lata.

(Applause)

(Palakpakan)

Or you could go into three-dimensional art.

O maaari kang pumunta sa "three-dimensional art".

Here we have the fur cup by Meret Oppenheim.

Heto sa atin ang "Fur Cup" gawa ni Meret Oppenheim.

Here I just brought it back to its original state.

Dito ibinalik ko nalang ito sa kaniyang original na kalagayan.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

But yeah, and it's great, you can even go, you know --

Pero oo, mahusay nga, puwede ka pang pumunta, alam mo --

Or we have this pointillist movement for those of you who are into art.

O kaya mayroon tayo nitong "pointilist movement" para sa inyong may hilig sa sining.

The pointillist movement is that kind of paintings

Ang "pontilist movement" ay isang uri ng pagpipinta

where everything is broken down into dots and pixels.

na lahat ay nabubukod lang sa mga tuldok at piksels

And then I -- this sort of thing is ideal for tidying up.

At pagtapos ako -- itong uri ng bagay ay ideyal para sa pag-aayos.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

So I once applied myself to the work of the inventor of that method, Georges Seurat,

Kaya inilagay ko ang aking sarili sa gawain ng imbentor ng paraan na ito, si George Seurat,

and I collected together all his dots.

at kinolekta ko ang lahat ng kanyang tuldok.

And now they're all in here.

At ngayon nandito silang lahat.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan).

You can count them afterwards, if you like.

Maaari niyong bilangin ito mamaya, kung gusto niyo.

You see, that's the wonderful thing about the tidy up art idea:

Tingnan niyo, iyan ang magandang bagay tungkol sa ideya ng pag-ayos ng ideya:

it's new. So there is no existing tradition in it.

Ito ay bago. Kaya wala pa itong tradisyon.

There is no textbooks, I mean, not yet, anyway.

Wala pang mga libro, ibig kong sabihin, wala pa gayunpaman.

I mean, it's "the future we will create."

Ibig kong sabihin, "ito ang "kinabukasan na ating lilikhain."

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

But to round things up I would like to show you just one more.

Pero para tapusin, gusto kong ipakita sa iyo ang isa pang bagay.

This is the village square by Pieter Bruegel.

Heto ang "village square gawa ni Pieter Bruegel.

That's how it looks like when you send everyone home.

Ganito ang itsura kung ipinauwi mo silang lahat.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah, maybe you're asking yourselves

Oo, siguro tinatanong ninyo ang sarili ninyo

where old Bruegel's people went?

saan napunta ang mga tauhan ni Bruegel.

Of course, they're not gone. They're all here.

Syempre, hindi sila nawala. Nandito silang lahat.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

I just piled them up.

Pinagpatong-patong ko lang sila.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

So I'm -- yeah, actually I'm kind of finished at that moment.

Ngayon ako'y -- oo, sa totoo ako ay tapos na sa ngayon.

And for those who want to see more, I've got my book downstairs in the bookshop.

At para sa mga gusto pang makakita ng higit pa, ang aking libro ay nasa baba sa tindahan ng libro.

And I'm happy to sign it for you with any name of any artist.

At ako'y magagalak na pirmahan ito para sa iyo na may pangalan ng sinumang pintor.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

But before leaving I would like to show you,

Pero bago ako umalis, gusto kong ipakita sa iyo,

I'm working right now on another -- in a related field

Ako'y may ginagawa ngayon na iba - sa kaugnayang larangan

with my tidying up art method. I'm working in a related field.

na gamit ang sistemang pag-ayos ng sining. Ako ay may ginagawa sa kaugnayang larangan.

And I started to bring some order into some flags.

At sinimulan kong magbigay ayos sa mga bandila.

Here -- that's just my new proposal here for the Union Jack.

Heto -- iyan lang ang aking bagong mungkahi sa "Union Jack".

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

And then maybe before I leave you ...

At siguro bago ko kayo iiwan...

yeah, I think, after you have seen that I have to leave anyway.

oo, tingin ko, pagkatapos niyong makita iyan, kailangan ko nang umalis.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Yeah, that was a hard one. I couldn't find a way to tidy that up properly,

Oo, iyan ay may kahirapan. Wala akong makitang paraan kung paanong isaayos iyan ng tama

so I just decided to make it a little bit more simpler.

kaya ipinasiya ko na gawin itong mas simple.

(Laughter)

(Tawanan)

Thank you very much.

Maraming Salamat.

(Applause)

(Palakpakan)
