Chapter 0387: Are You Honored to Know Me?【8/10 SAARC Plus 10】
I have to say that the exchange here is still different from that in China, of course, there are people who speak, but it is relatively short, and after speaking, everyone began to chat in groups. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info there is no such situation where a person stands in front and talks wildly, and a group of people below mutter. That kind of communication is too inefficient.
Especially in the field of art, there is rarely a need for one-to-many communication, everyone has their own persistence and ideas, and understanding others is not more about learning, but about corroboration and even to inspire themselves.
Artists from China, especially those who come to France, also like to play a lecture in the United States. The difference between the United States and China lies only in how interesting the manuscript is.
This exchange doesn't even require everyone to be in the conference hall, but to walk around the museum.
Lin Haven looked, and of course Artur and Bernard were also on the scene.
Corresponding to Haigel, the representative of the Cubist school, Artur still attaches more importance to it. So he just said that he was blind, and did not mention Haigl. It can be seen that he is not a person who has a tendon to his head.
Walking to Chang Shuo's side, Chang Shuo introduced him to a balding middle-aged man - Salva McNuglei, the manager of Sotheby's auction house in France.
"Lin, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm an old friend of your teacher. Solva also sold a sentence in Chinese: "Good brothers." ”
It's just a string of flavors, and Lin Haven's ears are hairy when he listens to it.
"Solva, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
Chang Shuo waited for the two of them to meet, and told Lin Haven about the auction of his works. The two of them discussed whether to finish filming at home or abroad, and in the end, it was because after Tunit and others made comments, there were still some movements in the European art circle, and Lin Haven felt that it would be filmed in Europe.
At this time in China, who is talking about primitive classicism, source classicism and the like, and it is not just because of Lin Haiwen's fame?
This is what he wants to avoid.
Solva has worked with Changshuo several times, and Changshuo's highest price of 8.5 million euros came from an autumn auction at Sotheby's, which was handled by Solva at that time. He said that he and Chang Shuo are good brothers, but it is not a mess, a community of interests.
"After contacting us, the company's experts evaluated it and gave you an auction in two months' time, with a reserve price of 300,000 euros. Solva explained: "I know that there are people in the United States who have offered more than $1.5 million to buy your Silent Guanyin. But you should know that "Gaia" and "Guanyin" are not the same, both in size and popularity. However, according to the estimation of our marketing department, the final transaction price is still expected to reach 800,000 to 1 million. There are a lot of interested collectors, especially—"
"Especially since you still have Chinese customers, right?"
"Haha, collectors in every country are the same, whether it is France, Russia, the United States, or you in China, they all prefer artists from their own countries. This is quite normal, after all, the same cultural foundation has an impact on the appreciative eye. ”
"I don't have any opinions, leave it to you professionals. ”
Since Chang Shuo introduced it, there will naturally be no problem - besides, he is a modern oil painter, 1.8 million euros, compared with the volume of Sotheby's every auction, it is not worth mentioning.
……
"That's Sotheby's Solva, a friend of Tsune's. Bernard told Artur: "Lin Haven's painting should be intended to be sold at auction in France. ”
"What price do you think he sells?"
Bernard thought for a moment: "Another of his exhibits, 'Silent Guanyin', is very famous, published in many art publications, and many mass media. At the beginning, the dance of "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" was very popular in France, and it can be called the most topical and attractive foreign art work in recent years. Even the painting with him is rising. As far as I know, in the United States, he did not agree to the offer of 1.5 million US dollars, and there was also a Spanish collector in Europe who offered 1.2 million euros. However, "Gaia", the mother earth, will not have this price, I estimate that it is half at most, around 600,000 euros. ”
"You may have forgotten that there is also a group of nouveau riche collectors in Huaguo. "Artur is kind of gnashing his teeth.
Bernard shrugged: "This is also something that cannot be envied, who makes their economic development good, and there are many rich people." Italy's growth rate is 0.5 this year, and it may be negative next year. Naturally, there are fewer people who are willing to spend a lot of money to collect contemporary oil paintings. ”
Lin Haven felt that a gaze fell on him, turned his head to look, and happened to bump into Bernard on the side.
He chuckled twice and spun around again.
"I'm not a staff member of the museum, but to be honest, I'm no stranger to this place than the average staff. ”
Chang Shuo and Lin Haven are inseparable, the Musée de l'Orangerie may be the most focused large art museum in Paris, compared to the Louvre and the Orsay, it basically only collects impressionist paintings from Monet, Renoir, Cézanne, Rousseau, and then to the modernist Picasso, Mattis, in addition, Chang Shuo and Lin Haven's specialization in classicism, there is nothing to be seen here.
The highlight of the museum is undoubtedly Monet's "Water Lilies" – the only painting in the Musée de l'Orangerie that is not allowed to be photographed.
Countless visitors have come for this painting.
Solva didn't take them to see "Water Lilies," Lin did, and Chang Shuo even copied them—albeit in a different style. It's too famous, after all. They were looking at some of Renoir's figure paintings, all of which were very plump European women, round and beautiful. Among the Impressionists, there are not many people who are as likable as him.
This is a painter who pursues beauty, and his work is also a pleasure.
In the exhibition room, there are young people who are copying with their copy cards. Lin Haven took a few looks, and the level was still good.
After lingering for a few minutes, Haigl and Artur walked in.
"You're here too?" said Haigl, happily, "Haven, this is Artur, a very accomplished modernist painter of the younger generation, and you will have something in common. ”
Lin Haiwen's eyes were full of surprise when he saw a stranger: "Hello, Mr. Artur, it is really my honor to meet such a young gentleman like you, who has achieved such a high level of achievement in painting. ”
Artur's face froze, is this person an actor?
"Artur, this is Haven Lin, a very talented painter, his exploration of the classical style is amazing. ”
"Hello, Mr. Lin. ”
"Oh, Mr. Artur, aren't you happy and excited to know a young and talented painter like me?" Lin Haven blinked, then laughed, "Just kidding, don't mind. ”
Call!
Artur felt that the breath in his chest was so hot. (To be continued.) )
