English to Catalan: Great Performers General field: Art/Literary
Source text - English Pellegrin, by contrast, is the consummate minimalist in both visual approach and technical apparatus. A celebrated photojournalist who has spent most of his time covering wars and conflicts, he is utterly pragmatic: working alone, ready to improvise, thinking quickly, and moving spontaneously. He doesn’t bring in a complex of lights and umbrellas to a shoot—indeed, he is often content illuminating his subjects with a single bulb or natural light. This simplicity, combined with Pellegrin’s sensitive eye, makes for extraordinary and very dramatic portraits.
Translation - Catalan Pellegrin, per contra, és un minimalista consumat, tant en l’aspecte visual com tècnic. És un conegut fotoperiodista que ha passat gran part de la seva carrera cobrint guerres i conflictes, i per això és extremament pragmàtic: treballa sol, és capaç d’improvisar, de pensar amb rapidesa, i es mou amb espontaneïtat. No s’emporta mai l'equip de focus i para-sols a cap sessió fotogràfica, sinó que se serveix d'una simple bombeta o de la llum natural per il·luminar els subjectes. Aquesta senzillesa, combinada amb la seva sensibilitat visual, dóna com a resultat uns retrats extraordinaris de gran intensitat dramàtica.

Source text - English There’s a sort of heaviness and lightness about Bill Murray as an actor. So when we were photographing him, I thought: “How do we express that?” The answer came intuitively. I said to him: “I’m going to put flowers in your beard.” And I started putting them in—I didn’t discuss it with him, I just did it. I remember him looking at me while I was doing it, and he said: “Does anybody ever ask you why?” And I remember replying simply: “No.” And that was the end of that. So he just took it, because my reply was very frank, and there was no way around it. I wasn’t trying to talk him into anything, so he just went for it and played along.
Translation - Spanish En el actor Bill Murray hay una mezcla de pesadez y ligereza. Así que cuando le estábamos fotografiando, pensé: “¿Cómo podríamos expresarlo?” La respuesta surgió de manera intuitiva. Le dije: “Voy a ponerte flores en la barba”. Y me puse a hacerlo; ni siquiera lo discutimos, lo hice sin más. Recuerdo que me miraba mientras lo hacía y me preguntó: “¿Nadie te pregunta nunca por qué lo haces?”. Recuerdo que le contesté simplemente: “No”. Y aquí acabó la conversación. Aceptó, porque fui muy franco con él, y no hubo discusión. No le estaba intentando convencer de nada, así que aceptó y se limitó a seguirme el juego.
