“I’m in the trenches right now,” John Branca says. His foxhole is a salmon-pink villa in Beverly Hills. Sunlight spills into the room on to Venetian antiques and Michael Jackson relics: an oversized portrait, whose gaze seems to follow; two original Andy Warhol sketches in turquoise and violet; a leather jacket studded with forks and spoons the star once wore to dinner with Elizabeth Taylor. It’s immaculate to the point of unease.
“我现在正身处前线。”约翰•布兰卡(John Branca)说。他的“战壕”是一栋位于贝弗利山庄(Beverly Hills)的鲑粉色别墅。阳光倾泻进房间,洒在威尼斯古董和迈克尔•杰克逊(Michael Jackson)的遗物上:一幅巨大的肖像画,目光仿佛会追随你;两幅安迪•沃霍尔(Andy Warhol)的原作素描,分别是青绿色与紫罗兰色;一件点缀着叉子和勺子的皮夹克——这位明星曾穿着它与伊丽莎白•泰勒(Elizabeth Taylor)共进晚餐。整洁得近乎让人不安。
