Chapter 313 Old Tang's Real Work that Sealed the Pen?
nbsp; Liu Yizhi, studied at the zhōng yāng Academy of Fine Arts in the 1990s. Mレm♠思♥Lu♣keレ is a proud student of Tang Huiqin, the master of Chinese painting today. In the 1990s, he carried a drawing board and started his career of traveling around the world. He reached Europe through the Middle East and lived in Paris, the world's art capital. For several years, during this period, he studied and researched in many museums in the birthplaces of European art such as Vienna and Rome.
After more than ten years of painstaking research and painting, he finally gained fame. Liu Yizhi's realistic oil paintings have won international awards, especially by European artists and collectors. Especially in this year's Vienna Oil Painting Gold Award, he defeated many famous local painters in Europe in one fell swoop. Toad Gong Zhegui, with a realistic "The Train is Coming", shocked the entire European oil painting industry.
At that time, countless collectors frantically wanted to pay a high price to buy such a realistic oil painting with surrealistic significance, but they were all rejected by Liu Yizhi. Because Liu Yizhi said that this painting was given to his mentor Tang Huiqin.
A few days ago, Liu Yizhi hurried back to China with the award. Although it was already 1 o'clock in the evening, he was still like an excited child, carrying his painting "The Train Is Coming" and the Vienna Gold Award. The little golden man hurried to Jian'an City, where Tang Huiqin was located.
But unfortunately, although Tang Huiqin was very happy with Liu Yizhi's achievements, she also congratulated him. However, he refused to accept the award-winning work "The Train Is Coming".
Today, Tang Huiqin took the initiative to invite Liu Yizhi to be a guest at home, and Liu Yizhi decided that no matter what, he must let the teacher accept his paintings today. Without the teacher's teaching to me, I would not have achieved what I am today. Therefore, this piece of "The Train is Coming" Liu Yizhi must be given to the teacher Tang Huiqin.
He knocked on the door of the teacher Tang Huiqin's house and saw the smiling face of the teacher's lovely granddaughter Qin Yanran. Liu Yizhi also met Qin Yanran that day, and he appreciated Qin Yanran's talent in art. At that time, she and her teacher Tang Huiqin also encouraged Qin Yanran to enter the zhōng yāng Academy of Fine Arts to study oil painting. However, the little girl had her own ideas, and she was the champion of the college entrance examination this time. She had already made up her mind to apply for the financial and economic major of Qingbei University.
"Yanran, hello! We meet again."
Looking at Qin Yanran's cute smiling face, Liu Yizhi also liked Qin Yanran as his junior, but it seemed that he was a little disappointed after seeing Qin Yanran open the door and seeing that it was him.
"Uncle Liu, hurry up...please come in and sit down..."
Qin Yanran was a little disappointed when she saw that Su Lin was not here, but she still admired Liu Yizhi in front of her. The last time she chatted in the teahouse, she knew that this grandma's favorite student once traveled thousands of kilometers on foot to paint an oil painting, and his footprints all over Europe. His realistic oil paintings have been recognized by the mainstream European painting circles, and well-known European collectors are already vying to collect his paintings.
I heard that he won the Vienna Oil Painting Gold Award in May this year. However, he wanted to give the award-winning "The Train Is Coming" to his grandmother. Qin Yanran had also seen that painting, and it was indeed very shocking.
"The Train is Coming" was made by the famous realist oil painter Liu Yizhi in six months. The idea of the painting came from Liu Yizhi's hiking on a railway crossing a golden wheat field in Austria. The train came and hit a pair of children who were playing on the rails, a boy and a girl. The boy pushed the little girl beside him with all his might. The horrified expressions of the adults around harvesting the wheat fields, the humming of the train, the crows flying in the sky, and the blood-like afterglow of the sunset, Liu Yizhi also witnessed this tragedy with his own eyes.
He freezes the camera at this moment, relying on memory and imagination. On the drawing board, I sketched such a "Train is Coming". This painting is Liu Yizhi's painstaking work. In order to depict the bright red blood of the little boy who was hit by the train, Liu Yizhi mixed his own blood into the paint. It took six months to complete such a masterpiece of realistic oil painting.
And today, Liu Yizhi memorized this piece of "The Train Is Coming". He was accompanied by a well-known domestic collector and painter Yuan Hai. Yuan Hai also inquired about Liu Yizhi's return to China, so he asked the relationship to find out that Liu Yizhi came to the residence of his teacher Tang Huiqin in Jian'an City, so he had the cheek to collect Liu Yizhi's "The Train Is Coming".
However, when Liu Yizhi won the award abroad, he was not tempted by the tens of millions of dollars offered by so many European collectors. Dedicated to your teacher. For Yuan Hai's request, Liu Yizhi naturally declined politely. But Yuan Hai didn't give up. He heard that Liu Yizhi was going to visit his teacher Tang Huiqin today, so he came along. Just to see if there is any way to buy such a painting from Tang Huiqin.
You know, just such a piece of "The Train is Coming", because it won the Vienna Oil Painting Gold Award, its worth is already more than 10 million. In addition, Liu Yizhi later declared that this painting would not be sold, but would only be given to his teacher Tang Huiqin. The value of this "Train is Coming" has doubled several times in a row, and now several internationally renowned collectors have asked for more than 50 million US dollars to buy this sky-high painting.
Rare things are precious, and this painting is also what Liu Yizhi himself is most satisfied with. He also feels that he may never be able to reach the peak of such a painting in his lifetime. The so-called most satisfying work is always the next one. The nonsense is all deceiving children. A person's artistic career is limited, and in this limited artistic career, there is a short period of time that is his golden age. .
Liu Yizhi feels that his golden age is now, and it seems that it is about to pass. The most important thing in realist oil painting is the accumulation of real experience, going through the vicissitudes of life, and finally integrating the feelings of ** into every bit of oil painting. This is the profound meaning of oil painting.
There is an ancient Chinese saying, "Articles are created by nature, but they are obtained by chance", and all arts are interlinked. The same is true for paintings, the inspiration and creativity of a moment, and the final condensed works are simply irreproducible. Even if Liu Yizhi was given another six months, or a year, I am afraid that he would not be able to paint works like "The Train is Coming" again. It can be said that the work "A Train Is Coming" is already the highest achievement of Liu Yizhi's artistic career in his lifetime.
Many painters have a very sad voice. Their paintings are only famous after death. For example, Van Gogh, some of the most valuable paintings in the world are all from his handwriting, but he was impoverished when he was alive. . The oil painting "Xiang rì Kui" reveals Van Gogh's struggle against fate, and his pursuit of light is as tenacious as Xiang rì Kui, but in the end, he could only end his life in grief and regret.
I don't know if Van Gogh can see that he left such a strong handwriting in the history of world art after his death, but his life is indeed a pity. Compared with Van Gogh, Liu Yizhi is much luckier. Although he has suffered a lot in his pursuit of art, it is already a great honor and luck to be able to obtain such a great honor in his thirties.
On the days of winning the award, Liu Yizhi felt that he was dreaming. Even he himself felt that life was so dreamy and unreal, but the fact was that he succeeded and won this honor.
However, he attributes all this to his own education in Tang Huiqin's college years, "if you have a dream, you must pursue it, and you will have no regrets and no regrets in your life." Therefore, he is excited to visit the teacher today, and he must send this painting out.
"Yanran, are you really not considering studying art? Your artistic talent is very good, and your teacher's teachings give you an unparalleled advantage over others..."
After entering the door, Liu Yizhi said to Qin Yanran with a smile. The collector and painter behind him, Yuan Hai, is much more cautious. This is the home of Tang Lao, the master of Chinese painting circles. It is said that Tang Lao closed his pen ten years ago. There are only a few paintings circulating in the outside world, but more are collected in major museums in China. Moreover, Mr. Tang's greatest contribution was to bring out so many outstanding Chinese and Western painters in my country, and to fill the gaps in the theoretical knowledge of teaching materials for Chinese Western painting and Chinese painting.
It is no exaggeration to say that Tang Huiqin is the founder of the domestic painting circle. Without Tang Huiqin, the number and quality of domestic painters would have dropped by a level as a whole. During the more than 30 years of teaching and research at the zhōng yāng Academy of Fine Arts, thousands of students have gained the same knowledge and inspiration from Tang Lao, and trained thousands of domestic first-class painters. Even an internationally famous painter like Liu Yizhi.
"Even if I can't receive Liu Yizhi's "The Train Is Coming" today, it would be great to ask Tang Lao for one or two paintings."
With his own thoughts, Yuan Hai, a well-known collector in China, carefully scanned the environment in the house, but at a glance, he found a transformation in the corner of the living room. But it is very likely to be the handwriting of Tang Lao.
"Is it possible that this painting is the real work of Tang Lao?"
The sharp-eyed collector Yuan Hai moved in his heart, and his mind had already noticed the painting. He knew the value of Tang Lao's real pen-enclosed work. (To be continued.)
