In most people's hearts, the word Harvard stands for "elite".

At the same time, this sense of elitism is by no means flashy and only visible on paper.

Whether as a student or as a visitor, we will be amazed by the scale and standard of the building, research facilities, and public facilities of Harvard University, as well as the world-class reputation and collections of many museums on campus.

Among them, the Harvard Art Museum is an art museum affiliated with Harvard University, and the Ashmaurie Museum at Oxford University and the Fitzwilliam Museum at Cambridge University can be called the most influential university art museum in the world. The museum has a collection of about 250,000 pieces from Europe, North America, North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, East Asia and Southeast Asia.

Also worth seeing are the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, the Harvard Museum of Natural History, the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, the Fisherman's Museum, and Harvard Woods.

In addition to studying, Yang Fei often stays in these museums, and every time he watches, he will have a new understanding.

In addition, Yang Fei also likes to go to the library and art exhibition hall.

It has a strong humanistic atmosphere, which can make people noble and knowledgeable.

At this moment, Yang Fei was alone, coming out of the museum and heading to the art exhibition hall.

The school has been promoting it a few days ago, and today there is an art exhibition featuring the work of a certain painter who graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design.

The Rhode Island School of Design is the nation's top-ranked art and design school.

Rumor has it that those who can go to Rhode Island School of Design despise Harvard and Yale.

Rhode Island School of Design is ranked No. 1 in the U.S. for Graphic Design, Illustration, Printmaking, and Industrial Design for Art, No. 2 in Painting, and No. 3 in Ceramics, Photography, and Sculpture, as well as other areas such as multimedia, visual communication, architecture, and landscape architecture.

Yang Fei thought to himself, if he can graduate from the Rhode Island School of Design and come to Harvard to open an art exhibition, it seems that this painter is very famous, but he is lonely and ignorant and does not care about artistic figures.

Entering the exhibition hall, Yang Fei put his hands behind his back and admired the past one by one.

After looking at a few paintings, Yang Fei was not calm.

Maybe it's your own aesthetic problem, right?

Nima's, how can you not understand these paintings?

Yang Fei had heard that there was abstraction in the painting school, just like the one painted by Picasso.

But Picasso's paintings are at least beautiful, and the paintings in front of him do not give people a strong impact or beauty.

Yang Fei didn't understand, and he was embarrassed to ask, and heard the two girls next to him discussing, saying that this was a brutal faction.

Originally, there were many kinds of European and American painting schools, and there were 19 of the most common.

Each school of painting has its own style.

If you don't stand out from the crowd, how can you be your own family?

Yang Fei shook his head, thinking that these so-called famous paintings were not as good as those painted by Li Yanan.

The painter's disciples were scattered in the exhibition hall, holding the teacher's business cards and handing them out, and promoting the value of these paintings, and selling them in a very tactful tone.

Yang Fei was very curious about the value of these works, pointed to a certain painting, and casually asked how much it was.

The other party replied that it was 600,000.

Of course, it's a beautiful knife.

Four million RMB?

Just such an unaesthetic, incomprehensible, graffiti-like oil painting is worth four million yuan?

Yang Fei shook his head.

Perhaps it was the sneer and disdain in his expression that made the other party feel humiliated.

The other party began to promote to Yang Fei the greatness of his teacher and the awards he won in the American and world art circles.

Yang Fei has never heard of these so-called awards.

Yang Fei waved his hand: "Don't buy it!"

The disciple of the master does not intend to let Yang Fei go, anyone who asks the price is a potential buyer, especially for such a "precious" painting, there are not many people who can appreciate and afford the price, and one is caught.

In the eyes of Americans, the Chinese who can come to Harvard to study in the United States are all rich people.

The other party talked about the brilliance of the painting and the artist's bold use of color.

Yang Fei listened to his explanation, couldn't help but take two steps back, and admired it carefully.

Sorry, I still can't appreciate it.

The paintings have not yet been explained wonderfully.

At this time, Linda walked over, naturally grabbed Yang Fei's arm, and said with a smile: "Yang, you want to buy this painting? This painter is a friend of my father." ”

Yang Fei shrugged: "If I can understand it, I think, I will buy it." ”

Linda rolled her beautiful blue eyes and smiled, "To be honest, I can't understand it either." ”

The master disciple was very angry: "You are Harvard students, how can you slander art like this? You can't understand it, you should find the reason from yourself, instead of blaming art for being too elegant!"

Linda's tone changed and she smiled: "However, everyone said yes, that must be good." High art is not something that everyone can appreciate. ”

The master disciple said: "Miss, if your level of art appreciation is half as much as your beautiful appearance, you can see the benefits of this painting." ”

Yang Fei frowned and said: "What are you talking about? It's not that we don't know how to appreciate beauty, but we can't appreciate these self-righteous beauty! Picasso's starry sky and sunflowers, no matter how abstract they are, we can also see their beauty. And the paintings hanging on the walls, I'm sorry, we can't appreciate them and we won't buy them. Linda, let's go!"

"Hey, you're slandering my teacher, you dare to say that my teacher's paintings aren't good-looking?"

"Hehe, interesting, do you still want to hear me tell lies, saying that these paintings are beautiful?" Yang Fei smiled sneeringly and said to Linda, "Let me tell you a story, there is an emperor who wants to marry his daughter, and a group of men come on a blind date, and the men think that the princess is too ugly, but in order to save his life, or to please the emperor Lao Tzu, they dare not tell the truth." Blindly touting that princess is beautiful. The princess lost her self-knowledge, thinking that she was truly unparalleled in the world, and that she had fallen over the country. ”

Linda laughed, "What about then? Is the princess married?"

The princess chose a man, but the man couldn't bear to look at the princess's ugliness, and would rather die than marry. ”

"Oh, there's such a thing, it's funny, isn't it?"

The master disciple looked at the two of them laughing unscrupulously, and rolled his eyes in anger, but he was helpless.

Yang Fei and Linda walked out the door and saw a poster posted next to them.

The content on the poster shows that this exhibition hall is open to the public, and friends from the art world are welcome to book a venue.

Yang Fei's heart moved, and he said to Linda: "I want to rent this exhibition hall." ”

Linda was surprised: "What are you renting?

Yang Fei laughed and said, "That can also be opened, but it won't come here." Well, that's right, I have a friend who paints a lot of paintings, and I think the level is very high, at least better than the master in it, and I want to help her open an exhibition here. ”

Linda said: "If you don't have a famous painter, if you come here to carry out it, you can't sell your paintings, and you will lose money." Is that friend of yours able to afford it? I know that artists are very poor. ”
