摘　　要：苏珊·桑塔格以文艺批评见长,即便是在标志着她文艺活动转向的电影制作中,也依然有其文艺思想的回声。《卡尔兄弟》从语言的匮乏和沟通的困难出发,意图说明严肃艺术家在巅峰状态的骤然静默乃是对艺术的深刻反思。静默会导致极端的自我否定,并带来死亡的威胁,但也能成为救赎的契机,从而打开封闭的心灵。《卡尔兄弟》是桑塔格"静默美学"的艺术实践,无论成功与否都是她在视觉艺术道路上一次勇敢的探索。Susan Sontag＇s literary and artistic criticism finds an echo in her filmmaking efforts that marked a turn in her artistic career. Starting with the sterility of language and difficulty of communication, her film Brother Carl demonstrates that it is out of careful introspection on art that a serious artist chooses to be suddenly silent at the peak of his or her career. Silence may lead to ultimate self-negation and menace of death, but it can also create opportunities of salvation so as to open up the once closed mind. Based on her ＂aesthetics of silence＂, Brother Carl constitutes a brave act of experimentation as Sontag transitions to a different artistic medium.
