“...... At New York University, Lin expressed his disdain and opposition to abstraction, and in response to questions from the audience, he said that abstract works need an art dictionary and a big critic to be able to see things. In fact, he believes that art theory, that is, what are the characteristics, expressions and meanings of works in the profession, really need to rely on art critics to analyze for the general public for reference and learning. But the intuitive feeling of beauty, a kind of artistic sublimation that comes from what the audience knows and feels, but transcends all this, does not need to be like this.

All along, especially after the 80s of the last century, contemporary art has developed rapidly like a wild horse, and it has indeed been questioned a lot - those irregular lines, color clusters, huge canvases, always rebellion, declaration of war, negation, chaos and so on, are they really as painters, galleries, critics, auction companies, collection institutions, etc.

The answer may be 'yes', but apparently Lin doesn't think so, and his unconcealed, unquestionable achievements in art will provide the most powerful proof of his views!

Whether art will usher in a new era of change, perhaps we will need to wait a little longer. ”

——

Jones Jr. put down this new issue, which used four full sheets of paper and eight full pages to publish Linhaven-related content, from to, more than a dozen typical works of different periods, on the paper to evolve Linhaven's artistic path - after enlightenment from Chang Shuo, he studied with the masters of the past dynasties, from Velás Guizhi to Ingres, completely experienced the inheritance and cultivation of classical academia, and finally stood on the shoulders of all the giants and giants of the past, creating a new school of source classicism.

After combing through Haven Lin's long - uh, seven years of artistic life, I focused on this art controversy. It finds this controversy very interesting, because the abstract masters, represented by Gaspe Jones, did not stand up for their art, as everyone thinks, and did not even maintain the silence of a high-ranking person. They went to see Lin Haven's work and gave a high evaluation, which in the eyes of many zero-sum thinkers, is simply a traitor, even the ancestors are traitors, which is really enough to make them feel frustrated.

However, the analysis made Jones Jr. more recognized: these top oil painting masters who are still alive, Gaspey and Gerhard, are very old, like Lin Haven who started a sect at the age of 26, and there is only one deformed child who has to respect his own art after all, and he can reach the height of Gaspey, and he is indeed not young - because of this, these people are actually not contemporaries, born before or in the middle of World War II, and their earliest contact with art education is often academic.

Gerhard is a typical example, and Gaspé is similar, on this basis, they definitely have feelings about Lin Haven's breakthrough in the classical school - a bit like an ex-husband, watching his ex-wife marry another man, he broke up with her because his ex-wife was not good enough, but now, the ex-wife told him with obvious facts that she is now full of connotation and very beautiful and temperamental. At this time, the ex-husband may even be the most deeply touched, because he has seen her worst times and her best times now.

I feel a little impulsive to eat the grass back.

Jones Jr. had a very hard idea, and he knew exactly how terrible the artistic storm would be if he said that Gaspé was eating "backgrass"—maybe change the wording? Or simply remain silent?

Let's read it first.

There were as many people in the exhibition hall as ever, not only New Yorkers, but people from all over the United States and even other regions, and one of the important points that came to this art debate is that no matter what art debate, no matter what abstract classicism, no matter what white Chinese, in short, almost everyone agrees on one thing - it is an epoch-making work.

How incredible.

A painting that has been recognized by almost everyone.

This is absolutely impossible in abstract art, even in figurative works such as realism and classicism, it is very, very difficult. The only reason why Lin Haven can do it is that his breakthrough is very big, very significant, impossible to ignore, irrefutable.

That's enough to make many enthusiasts drive or fly to New York.

Most of them, like Jones Jr., after reading it, saw the sunrise, the lake, and the infinite extension in the overlapping limited space, and they all had a deeper understanding of what Lin Haven said: "The necessary configuration for appreciating oil painting art is only the eyes and heart, and never includes dictionaries and review articles."

Jones Jr. especially understands why Gaspé can't help but learn - a top mountaineer who has conquered all the world's peaks, but Linhaven's work tells him that there is a higher, more precipitous, more magnificent snow-capped mountain, and you want to challenge it.

The answer is no doubt.

"Unbelievable. He said to a friend who accompanied him, Richard, from a reporter who came with him.

"Hehe, that's the most I've heard about it, I thought you'd be a little different. ”

"No, it's no different, it's high up to the artist, it's untouchable, but to the audience, it's the same shocking beauty. ”

"Uh-huh, very high. ”

Little Jones gave up his place and walked around with Richard to the next place, walking past Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Ingres, and Rembrandt, these giants he had seen countless times but had no intention of following, and now there was a different kind of vitality born, it seems that Lin Haven's breakthrough has rekindled their artistic vitality.

"Gaspé was learning source classicism, and it seemed so difficult that he was not confident that he would be able to master it. Dao.

"I understand the artist's itchy mentality, haha, but I didn't expect Mr. Jones to be too- what? What are you talking about? Are you saying that your father, Mr. Gaspe Jones, is studying Lin Haven's source classicism?" Richard didn't react at first, but halfway through speaking, his brain seemed to be tugged at a little, and then he twisted it hard and struck a thrill.

Little Jones nodded silently in his horrified eyes.
