拍品专文

"Bell presents the various and complex contraptions that make up the playing surfaces of pinball machines. Bell might be likened to a precisionist in his affinity for basic architectural forms which these close-ups resemble, but what he chronicles is post-industrial leisure. If it is like architecture, Bell's subject matter is futuristic or crazily eclectic like Venturi and Rauch" (L. Meisel, "Charles Bell," Arts Magazine, January 1978, vol. 52, no. 5, p. 24).
