345 is the first
This was the first time that Principal Tu was shocked by art.
At this moment, he finally felt the powerful power of outstanding artworks.
If he hadn't seen Xiao Yao's work with his own eyes, he really couldn't have imagined that a landscape painting seemed to condense the thickness and majesty of thousands of mountains, and this kind of vast and far-reaching shock could even make him, an art idiot who is more rational than emotional, deeply moved.
Even Principal Tu, a layman, was shocked by Xiao Yao's new work, and Bian Yiding, an insider, felt even deeper.
He really didn't expect Xiao Yao's level in Chinese painting to be so high, even beyond his attainments in oil painting.
From the perspective of artistic conception, the artistic appeal of this work even exceeds fire and thunder. From the perspective of painting techniques, this work is also innovative and has distinctive personal characteristics.
Whether it is Chinese painting or oil painting, after entering modern times, painting techniques have basically developed to a peak, and it is becoming more and more difficult to make breakthroughs and develop in painting techniques.
Anyone who can make a breakthrough and be recognized by the industry can basically become a master of the art world.
From the perspective of Bian Yiding's insiders, Xiao Yao's painting techniques displayed in this work are extremely mature and spicy, and there are great innovations, and his personal characteristics are extremely distinct, and there are so many places that he can learn and learn from them.
But that's not what shocked him the most, what shocked him the most was the strong artistic appeal of this work.
Xiao Yao was able to become a world-renowned artist in a short period of time through 4 works, and it is precisely because of this.
Because in the entire history of world art, there has never been an artist whose works have such a powerful appeal as fire and thunder.
This powerful artistic appeal can be felt even by the general public who do not have the ability to appreciate art.
Although Xiao Yao has also made many breakthroughs in painting techniques, this breakthrough in techniques is a bit insignificant compared to his presentation of artistic conception.
Art is the same, there are too many differences between Eastern and Western art in painting techniques, but the pursuit of image in works is the same.
Chinese painting originally paid more attention to the expression of artistic conception, Xiao Yao's work, simply condensed the ethereal artistic conception into substance, anyone who sees this work, the heart will be hit hard, this strong artistic appeal, is simply incredible.
Putting aside all factors and evaluating Xiao Yao's work only from the perspective of appreciating beauty, there is no doubt that this is a shocking work and a masterpiece that can be handed down to the world.
Bian Yiding even thinks that this painting is the first landscape painting from ancient times to the present!
Everyone admired it for a long time in shock, and President Tu Ruilin was the first to speak: "I have always thought that I am an art idiot, and I have no eye for appreciating beauty. Putting aside all the professional comments, I, as a layman, think that this is the most powerful work I have ever seen, and the only one that I would like to keep for myself. ”
As an amateur painter, Ni Zhigao also likes Xiao Yao's work very much, "Principal Tu, I advise you to dispel this idea." Even if the Louvre wanted to collect one of Professor Xiao's works, it would have to pay $60 million. Although I have not seen Professor Xiao's work with my own eyes, I think this Thousand Rocks show is certainly no worse than the one in the Louvre's collection, and you can't afford it even if you are bankrupt, so it is better not to have this thought, lest you not be able to sleep at night. ”
"Dean Bian, you must have seen the other four works of Professor Xiao with your own eyes, which one do you think is better than the fire in the Louvre?" asked Mak Yuanbo curiously.
Bian Yiding pondered for a moment and said: "The fire in the Louvre's collection is an oil painting, and this picture of a thousand rocks is a Chinese painting, and the two are not easy to compare. If you have to say which painting is better, it is not easy to compare the painting techniques, but if you compare the presentation of imagery, there is still a relatively obvious gap between the two. Obviously, the artistic conception of the Thousand Rock Show is more shocking. So, if I had to choose, I would definitely choose this picture of the Millelith show. ”
"Professor Xiao's fire and thunder caused a sensation all over the world after they were exhibited in Bali, so wouldn't this Thousand Rock Show be even more sensational once it was released?" Principal Tu's tone was very excited.
It was originally Bian Yiding's idea to add Xiao Yao's name to the list of distinguished alumni, invite him to attend the school celebration, and hire him as a chair professor of the Academy of Fine Arts. Xiao Yao is too young after all, although he has caused a huge sensation in the world during this time, Tu Ruilin only knows that there is such a person from other people's mouths, and he does not have a clear impression of him, so the degree of attention is naturally not too high.
Asking Xiao Yao to create works for the school anniversary exhibition is also Bian Yiding's suggestion.
Of the four principals present today, only Bian Yiding and Mai Yuanbo really attach importance to Xiao Yao. Tu Ruilin and Ni Zhigao had to participate in this reception just because of their identities.
But after seeing Xiao Yao's new works with their own eyes, Tu Ruilin and Ni Zhigao's mentality immediately changed dramatically.
Before they saw Xiao Yao's work in person, they only knew that Xiao Yao's work was great and sought after by the global art world, but they couldn't imagine how great it was.
It wasn't until they experienced the powerful power of this Thousand Rock Show that they really understood how powerful Xiao Yao's works really were, and there was a reason why he was able to be sought after by the global art world in such a short period of time with only 4 works.
There is no doubt that such a shocking work will definitely cause a sensation once it is exhibited.
Xiao Yao is still very young, his time to fame is too short, and his fame is only spread in the art world.
But Principal Tu believes that in time, Xiao Yao's fame will definitely break through the small circle of the art world and become known to the public.
Among the outstanding alumni of Han University, there are many academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and there is no shortage of high-ranking officials, and many of these outstanding alumni have greater influence than Xiao Yao.
However, President Tu felt that in time, the most outstanding alumnus who could make Han University proud in the future would definitely be Xiao Yao.
