Lili Elbe by Gerda Wegener

Book and film[edit]

Over the years, the story of Lili and Gerda gained a cult following in Denmark and around the world. Their artwork has been rediscovered, and exhibited and auctioned with success. A special exhibition of Gerda Wegener's art is currently on display at the Arken Museum of Modern Art until May 2016, with plans for a traveling exhibit of her art to travel around the world.[8]
The Danish GirlDavid Ebershoff's 2000 novel about Einar/Lili and Gerda, was an international bestseller and was translated into a dozen languages. Wegener is portrayed by Swedish actress Alicia Vikander in the 2015 film The Danish Girl, also starring British actor Eddie Redmayne as Einar Wegener/Lili Elbe. The film received some criticism for having been written similarly to forced feminization erotica, obscuring the actual story of a historical trans person and omitting certain facts[9] and for being based on a fictional book that does not tell the true story of Einar and Gerda Wegener.[10] The topic of Gerda's own sexuality, which many believe is demonstrated by the subjects of her erotic drawings, are not mentioned in the film or book.[11][12][13] In February 2016, Alicia Vikander won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Wegener.
【變了性,可以愛。變了心的,還可以愛嗎?】
在哥本哈根短短三日,竟讓我碰上了史上最大型的Gerda Wegener畫展。Gerda的作品大多以女性為主題,內容大膽前衛,筆下的女子個個嫵媚、高貴、獨立。早在1920年代,Gerda已高舉女性獨立旗幟。
從Lili的肖像畫中,觀賞者確能真切感受到Gerda對Lili的愛意,欣賞之情盡顯筆下。沒有愛,根本不能看到Lili的美;沒有愛,根本不能支持愛人的一切選擇和決定,哪怕外人認為那些是自私和不負責任的決定。
要令你的愛人快樂就要明白他們的需要、痛苦、和願望,而非自以為是地假…
