What kind of person is Mr. Cao?
To be able to break into the European market for Chinese painting as a Chinese by myself, I have never seen such troubles.
Don’t think that the water of art is so clear.
The biggest difference between art and the entertainment industry is that although the prices in the art market have increased over the past thirty years, this is related to many factors such as hype and speculation.
Compared with mass media, it is still a relatively niche and mysterious category.
Niche means that especially in the upper market, there are only so many buyers, so many galleries, and only so much money circulating in this circle.
You are a carrot and a pit, but you are also a master. If you have been more popular in the past ten years, naturally some of your peers will be ignored.
All kinds of intrigues are inevitable.
Why did you buy sex with a sex worker and then be accused of rape? After going to a bar for a walk, you got white powder all over your body.
Mr. Cao has heard and seen many things like this in the past half century.
Contrary to what Tanaka Masakazu thought, Mr. Cao actually didn’t care about the truth of the matter. Whether it was a frame-up or not, if Mr. Cao wanted to pursue it to the end, this matter would be a big deal.
But Mr. Cao didn't want to pursue it in the first place, and the result of this matter was better than he expected, so this was nothing.
Different statuses bring different perspectives.
However, Mr. Cao didn’t want to just let Gu Weijing go.
If you do something wrong but are encouraged just because the result is good, it will not be good for the child's growth. He can't always have such good luck.
What if he messes up the painting?
This time I know the truth, so what about next time, and the next time
Some things only need to be made once, There will be no next time.
A very realistic thing is that in the European art market, if you are white, you have opportunities and you can also make mistakes.
But if you are a yellow person, not only do you have fewer opportunities, but you must not make mistakes.
Stories such as crying bitterly against the media, reforming one's past, and reviving a second spring in an artistic career belong to the Chinese.
If you are Chinese, no one will give you a second chance. Any mistakes are unforgivable. If you have any stain, you will be rejected by the gallery.
You are wrong, you are a Chinese trash, get out immediately, there will be no second time.
The old gentleman wanted to know what kind of person this child was.
"I know there may be something wrong with this mural."
Gu Weijing was stared at by the little old man's bright eyes, and he felt that all the little thoughts in his heart had been penetrated.
"Now that you know, why do you still paint? Why do you want to be famous? You are talented. Lin Tao wants to accept you as his apprentice, but you are not satisfied yet. You are not greedy enough. You can't wait to become famous."
p>
PeopleThe group immediately fell silent because the words were very unpleasant.
"Tell me what you are thinking."
Lao Cao asked, "I'm warning you, boy. Young people can make mistakes, but if you continue to be dishonest, I will I'll be very disappointed."
"No."
Gu Weijing was completely immersed in the joy of getting Mojie's Notes, and he really didn't think about becoming famous at all.
"That's why."
Mr. Cao's tone became even colder.
"Itchy hands"
Gu Weijing hesitated for a moment and then said.
With itchy hands, Mr. Cao was stunned for a moment. He thought that the other party might argue, but he did not expect this answer at all.
"Seeing such a good painting opportunity, I don't want to give up."
Mr. Cao was silent for a moment.
“Then what if I make a mistake? If such a good painting falls into your hands, as a painter, don’t you feel it’s a pity?”
“I think I can paint it. "It's the best."
"It's the best to dare to say the best at a young age."
Mr. Cao took a deep breath from his nose. Not to mention, the face of Guanyin in this painting is majestic and compassionate, and the emperor and empress respectfully follow the laws of the human monarch. Even if you have prepared the paints, you can also master the brushes in these places."
When Mr. Cao just admired the mural, he discovered that although Gu Weijing's paint configuration was amazing, his proficiency with the brush was still very average.
It’s just that ordinary people are pretty good. Let alone comparing with himself, any young professor present would give him a slap, so he asked this question. < /p>
"If you finish painting these details and no one notices your situation, you won't continue painting." Mr. Cao looked at the mural on one side again.
"No painting."
"Then you should inform the staff first." Mr. Cao sounded a little unconvinced.
"Sorry."
"What are you sorry for? You did nothing wrong, you have nothing to apologize for."
A long time passed.
Mr. Cao has been looking at the painting on one side and said nothing.
Just when everyone is feeling strange.
"Gu Weijing, if you don't mind, I would like to ask you a few questions." Mr. Cao suddenly said.
Buzz
The comments in the crowd that had just been suppressed suddenly started again.
"Ask for advice."
It is not a question, but a request for advice.
As a figure who can be written into the history of world art, there is actually no living artist in the world with a higher status than Mr. Cao.
One of the highest awards in the light art world was awarded at the Venice International Art Biennale.Three Golden Lions were awarded to the best international participating artists.
This is like a giant physicist who has won more than one Nobel Prize in the scientific world, and even higher up may be legendary masters such as Newton and Einstein.
There may be a few living physicists who are at the same level as him, but even if his works can be sold for a higher price, it is really hard to say that he is more powerful than Mr. Cao. .
Counting from the mid-20th century onwards, the most expensive work may be that of Andy Warhol. He is the soul, leader and godfather of Pop Art.
This old gentleman, who is a bit like the rock male model in art magazines such as Harper’s Bazaar, should be the first person since the concept of art to be able to sell his own prints for 6,000 or 7,000 yuan. Artists of the order of 10,000 pounds.
Yes, it is printed matter.
In a sense, this is much more successful than Van Gogh or something.
But is he definitely more successful than Mr. Cao?
It’s hard to say.
After all, he is only a promoter of Pop Art, not a pioneer.
He did not have such a great achievement as founding a sect.
Some people also accuse him of commenting on his intaglio printing. Wooden wood rubbings cannot be called art at all, but are just taking advantage of others.
In the eyes of these artists and professors, Mr. Cao has always been an unattainable giant. Everyone is a junior and student in front of the little old man.
How long had it been since they had seen this old gentleman use the word "ask for advice"?
Moreover, the target turned out to be a middle school student under the age of eighteen.
"Please ask, as long as I know, I will tell you."
Gu Weijing hurriedly bent down, he could not bear the old gentleman's advice.
"The lady's blue dress is filled with silver vermilion, red elixir, and, well, there should be a little garcinia powder, right."
Gu Weijing admired it in his heart and nodded. head.
Even with the help of Mojie's notes, he spent a lot of effort to prepare these pigments and tried several different formulas before finally finding the most suitable type.
In the end, Mr. Cao just looked at it casually, raised his voice and told the truth about his recipe.
"Then how do you adjust such thin and not bright colors? I also thought of cinnabar and garcinia, but I can't approximate the slightly weathered feeling of other parts of the mural. It shouldn't be diluted. The paint is so simple."
Mr. Cao looked at the picture, "And here, how did you achieve this cool and slightly moist feeling?"
"I tried to The egg white of infertile eggs is added."
"Is the egg white similar to tempera painting?"
"This is what you came up with."
"I did. I tried some unique recipes and then based on the knowledge my elders taught meI learned it through trial and error. "
Of course Wang Wei is an elder in the world of calligraphy and painting. Of course, Gu Weijing knew that others would probably regard him as his grandfather.
Mr. Cao raised his head to look at the mural, then lowered his head Looking at the colorful stains on his clothes during the process of arranging the paint, the young man finally smiled.
"What a young genius. You are really good, better than me, an old man." "
He sighed. Please remember to bookmark, the latest and fastest website without anti-theft and free reading
