"Dad, do you have any good suggestions for modifying this painting?" Shengzi saw her father's arrogant look and asked in a funny way.
It was only then that Kazunari Sakai came to his senses.
He didn't call to praise Gu Weijing or to tell the kid that he had met the criteria for winning the award.
I am here to criticize the other party with a stormy attitude and give him suggestions for improvement.
"There are still many things that can be improved, yes, there are indeed many, too many."
He sat upright a little, tilted his head forward, and put on a stern look. demeanor.
The whole person looked as solemn as a judge on a variety show who was about to criticize the contestants, and then
hold it in for a few minutes.
Professor Sakai Kazunari didn’t say a word.
"You can't tell at all. I just told Gu Jun that my father is the most powerful."
Gu Weijing is still waiting.
Shengzi had already unceremoniously revealed the truth about her father's show of silence.
The girl didn’t know whether to be happy or regretful, so she shook her head.
"What are you talking about? Didn't I just point out that the texture of his fingers is dull and craftsmanship? This is enough for him to practice, Katsuko."
Uncle Sakai She seemed to hear the sound of her glorious image being shattered in the girl's heart, as if an arrow had been shot in her chest, and she immediately patted her belly anxiously and argued.
Can you blame him?
It’s clearly your boyfriend’s fault.
Who would have expected that Gu Weijing's painting skills would improve so quickly. It would be like the national team's football coach running to coach the football teams of rural schools in relatively remote areas such as Shimane and Akita. It's training methods, physical plans, and tactical movements. As long as you apply some mature experience casually, you can achieve rapid improvement in a week.
This is the so-called dimensionality reduction attack.
But once you face a mature and professional football crowd, even if you are just a kid like U13 or U15, if you want to say a few words and rely on a few correct stretching movements and running positions, you will be able to win in an instant. It is completely impossible to bring about radical improvements.
Because they are mature enough.
The assistant coaches and physical training that I come into contact with every day are very professional. Any improvement will only be a matter of hard work accumulated over time.
40 points to 80 points, and 80 points to 100 points, the difficulty and workload are completely different. It is also not something that can be figured out by other great artists in a few words on the phone.
Professor Kazunari Sakai felt very aggrieved and had to take two more sips of celery juice.
I knew it earlier.
He would not make this call so casually.
"There are a lot of questions, so let's do this. You take some high-definition photos for me. Lucky for him, I will personally make a list of questions and send them to you in a while."
In order to maintain the adoration of my daughter.
Uncle Sakai had no choice but to resort to delaying tactics.
To say that this picture of the Good Luck Orphanage under the sun is perfect in his eyes is to overestimate Gu Weijing and underestimate Professor Sakai’s professionalism.
Just use the pen method.
If Kazuki Sakai thought about it, he could pick out a whole host of problems.
But it makes no sense.
Different from the finger painting method, which is so young that you have not practiced it much at first glance, no one can point out the shortcomings of professional second-level painting techniques in just a few words.
First of all, this is an online class.
It is easy to say that "the lines are not round enough, not soft enough, not romantic enough", but Uncle Sakai didn't really say this at an art exhibition when the judges were writing comments and giving instructions on each other's painting techniques. That's too vain.
If he wanted to clearly distinguish the quality of his paintings, Uncle Sakai would have to go to the studio in person and take a paintbrush to demonstrate.
Secondly, the demonstration of painting is more powerful, so what if the demonstration was done by Gu Wei Jingxue? You can't let the other party follow the painting step by step.
Proficiency in using pens improves very slowly. There is definitely a difference whether or not someone teaches you, but the difference is not too big.
Professor Lin Tao’s “Apple Aesthetic” is the best.
Sakai Kazunari also had to hold back some short and concise art theory in order to be able to live up to the awesomeness he boasted in front of his daughter. .
Professor Sakai is also a person who cares about face.
Based solely on art experience and mindlessly overpowering him in terms of brushwork skills, the uncle felt that it was too low.
"Oh, life is so difficult for middle-aged men." Kazunari Sakai's belly trembled.
If his wife wants him to lose weight, he has to work out desperately.
If you want to show off in front of your daughter, you have to kneel down to finish it.
Life is not easy, the uncle sighed.
Professor Sakai held his mobile phone and scratched his head while looking at the photos, and couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.
Even a tough guy like a bald physical trainer, when he heard Professor Kazunari Sakai sighing about being squeezed by life, for no reason he thought of his girlfriend who was about to get married, and of the high mortgage loan in the 23rd ward near the Tokyo area. As if being stabbed into the heart by a sharp sword, the sharply angular eight-pack abdominal muscles also trembled for a while.
"Mr. Sakai, take a good rest. Let's just do some strength training at night. We won't do any more anaerobic training."
"Yes."
Maybe people are destined to have different joys and sorrows, and class is like a gap.
But at this moment.
The macho man with an annual income of 5.3 million yen and the fat man with a package contract price of 50 million US dollars looked at each other, speechless, and they actually felt empathy.
The atmosphere was unprecedentedly harmonious.
Only the music in the gym is noisy and fiery no matter what the atmosphere and mood of the people are. It has a kind of unkindness and vicissitudes of treating all things as stupid dogs.
The music in the gym is still hot.
Amada Riki, who earns 25 million yen a year, hummed a tune, threw the keys of his BMW 4 sports car to the front desk for storage, and walked briskly into the training room.
As a tenured professor in the Art History Department of Tama Art University, he is a famous professional curator of art exhibitions in Japan.
Amada Rikiya has a square face, long eyes, a big nose, and gray hair. He looks a bit like the famous writer Haruki Murakami, and his living habits are also very similar to Murakami's love of sports. , a sports fanatic who gets up at 6:30 every day to do aerobics regularly even though he has a high fever.
Persisting in the habit of fitness brings good health. Although I have reached the age of retirement, I am still full of energy.
He is the kind of typical appearance that could be printed on the poster for the Senate’s bill to amend the employment stability law for senior citizens, proving that Japan is ready to start exploring the era of “70-year-old retirement”.
Amada Rikiya does not feel that he is old at all.
Some cities always maintain youthful vitality. Even if they are aging seriously, they are still bustling with entertainment and restlessness, such as Tokyo at your feet.
It is very interesting that Japan, one of the major industrial countries of fuel vehicles, has prepared surveys and statistics.
In Japan's relatively repressive social environment.
On the streets of Tokyo, there are two types of people who drive high-powered performance cars roaring through the neon streets of Shibuya and Chiyo.
One type is young people aged 23 or 24 who wantonly squander the beauty of youth with their parents’ money.
The other type is the grandfathers wearing leather jackets and sunglasses, holding cigarettes and cigars.
Most of their children have graduated from college or have no children at all. They have no pressure in life and choose to use their savings over the years to reminisce about their youth spent in hard work.
Amada Riki, who has lived here for many years, has also become infected with the atmosphere of the metropolis, and it can even be said that he did it intentionally.
As a top art curator.
Mr. Amada hopes that his image in social media will be cooler, more trendy, and more artistic in this era when Japanese young people are becoming increasingly "old-weary" online.
He is a member of the Suzuka Circuit Car Club, and this year he specially ordered a valuable imported McLaren from Woking, London, even though it will cost him a whole year's income. .
Thinking about the cool gull-wing doors and the way he opened the door and appeared in the spotlight of reporters, Professor Amada thought it was worth it.
Of course.
Art is not a nightclub.
The reason why he became a tenured professor at Tama University was definitely not because of the crystal car key on his belt, but because of hisHe has a glorious resume of planning more than five large-scale art exhibitions and art festivals including the Yokohama Triennale.
His status in Japan is like Curator Tonks' status in England.
Strictly speaking, it is slightly inferior.
After all, he is only a tenured professor at Tama, not the head of the art history department, let alone the principal of Tama.
But in Japan, where there is a stronger sense of hierarchy, the level of respect Rikiya Amada receives is even greater than that of Curator Tonks.
You can get a glimpse of it by looking at the way the guy at the gym front desk bows.
Amada Riki also bowed slightly in return, then took the gym bag handed to him at the front desk and went to the locker room to change clothes.
"Professor Sakai, you came to the gym again today. Good evening, let's go for a run together."
The moment Amada hung the bone conduction headphones on the auricles , I noticed Uncle Sakai who was practicing rowing with a small maracas in the rest area.
With a physique like Kazunari Sakai, his conspicuousness in the gym is no less than that of a bikini girl wearing only a three-point swimsuit.
It’s impossible not to get noticed.
Like the previous two days, he immediately set off and walked over, taking the initiative to say hello to Uncle Sakai.
The level of awesomeness of great curators can be divided into three levels.
The most impressive ones are the big names who have defined the historical level of art, such as Achille Oliva, the former chairman of the organizing committee of the Venice Biennale, who created the Carnegie Art Exhibition Arnold Bode , or with Pontou Jourdain, director of the Center Pont du Arte who curated Andy Warhol’s first retrospective.
The second level is Juben, the top curator in the world who has promoted the development of a country's art, such as Vincenzo Sanfo, the chairman of the Italian National Cultural Center, and the undisputed figure in the Japanese curatorial circle no1, the international curator Fumio Nanjo who discovered Cai Guoqiang of Eastern Xia and Iranian Nashat.
On another level are well-known local curators like Amada Rikiya and Tonks.
The definition of art history depends on luck, and participating painters are more important than curators.
Amada doesn’t even dare to hope.
But the line between a big guy like him and a giant run is not that hard to cross.
The biggest gap is whether you have had the opportunity to curate a top exhibition like Venice or Carnegie.
Prizes like the Lasker Prize, Shaw Prize, and Wolf Prize are all very impressive, but they sound different from the Nobel Prize after all.
Similar life, similar class, Amada Riki also faces similar bottlenecks and troubles in his career as Tonks.
Director Tonks hopes to gain international fame through this year’s Singapore Biennale.
Riki Amada fixed his hopeful eyes on the plump Professor Sakai.
He has always hoped that Kazunari Sakai would give him the chance to design the next personal exhibition..
"Professor Amada, good evening."
Sakai Kazunari smiled and nodded, "No, I have to take a rest tonight and take a shower later. After a relaxing muscle massage, I went to bed."
After saying hello.
Professor Sakai thought for a moment.
He did not continue training immediately. After waving to the physical trainer next to him, he stood up and walked towards Riki Amada.
"Senior Amada, is it convenient for us to chat?"
"Oh, it's convenient. Let's go to the cafe outside, or right here."
Amada Li was also a little flattered.
In Japanese society, elders are orderly, but the art world does not respect this. Kazunari Sakai should be the most valuable artist in Tama Art Academy in the past ten years.
People are willing to call him "senior" to give him face.
It’s not like he had to rush up to beg Kazunari Sakai to let him hold the exhibition.
But Sakai Kazsei wanted to ask a master of Nanjo Fumio’s magnitude to give him a solo exhibition. As long as the negotiation was good, there would be no chance.
For a curator of Rikiya Amada’s caliber, there are many spaces for him to choose from internationally.
"I would like to treat you to a cup of coffee, but unfortunately, I won't be allowed out here before the weight loss training is over." Sakai Kazunari smiled, "Just chat here, it won't take up too much of your time." "It takes a lot of time."
"Okay, I don't know about you, Professor Sakai"
"That's it. If I think it's not bad, you probably also received the Singapore Biennial. Did you receive the invitation letter from the exhibition organizing committee?"
Uncle Sakai asked casually.
The winners of the Singapore Biennale are jointly decided by the organizing committee and the jury.
The organizing committee is the organizer of the art exhibition. There are only a dozen experts and scholars in total. The specific list was announced several years ago. The organizing committee is responsible for the topic selection and planning of the entire exhibition. of.
In order to maintain fairness as much as possible.
The official art exhibition will also invite many domestic and foreign art experts, art critics, and media reporters to form a large jury during the exhibition.
"Oh, yes, of course. They asked me to come and be a judge in August. Several people have accepted."
Amada Riki didn't know why Sakai Kazunari suddenly mentioned this thing.
He nodded in confusion, "But I haven't decided whether to agree yet. Oh, foreign monks like to chant sutras. Since they didn't choose me as the art director at the beginning, I might not be happy to run over. What kind of judge are you?"
He curled his lips and muttered.
A few years ago, Yutian came into contact with the Cultural Affairs Bureau of Singapore, and he even had the opportunity to become the international curator of the Singapore Art Exhibition.
It was only the British Micah Tonks who was chosen in the end, that made him regretful to be with the most talked-about player in Asia this summer and autumn.The art exhibition was missed. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
