Chapter 0954 - Rejection of Pompidou (for the mirror and more)

Although Lin Haven was a blow from the Flying Immortals, Nolan was not speechless because of this.

Bonois couldn't help laughing, he really endured very hard today, he quietly leaned into Lin Haven's ear and told him a bad news: "The Louvre does not collect works by modern and contemporary artists." ”

β€œ...... Oh, that's right," Lin glanced at Nolan, who showed great self-control, even if he really wanted to express some intense emotions, but he didn't. Lin Haiwen's eyes spread out for a few seconds and then gathered together: "Of course I know that the Louvre does not collect works by modern and contemporary artists, how can I be so ignorant? ”

Bonoir: ......

Nolan:......

"Oh, don't talk here, it looks like it's about to start. Lin Haven looked into the distance and said to the two: "Mr. Nolan, I won't bother you, let's go first." ”

β€œ...... Oh, okay. ”

Bonois followed Lin Haven, smirking as he ate.

"Bonois, do you need water?"

"Ahh

"Are you going to swallow it directly?"

"Swallow what?" Bonois couldn't smile anymore, confusion overwhelming him.

Lin Haven glanced at him: "Medicine, you don't need to take medicine, or you forgot to take medicine today and didn't bring it?" ”

"......" Bonoit finally reacted, and was speechless for a while.

Lin Haiwen turned his head and walked to his place and sat down, his position was very high, after all, he came as a guest of honor, and there was still a way of hospitality, Chang Shuo was separated from him, and he was a bald uncle between the two, smiling.

Bonois sat in the row behind him and scolded him silently for a few words before the depression dissipated.

Mr. Royalt, the curator of the Louvre, began to speak, and sat down very casually, even though the director of the Louvre spat out rare names one after another: Ingres, Titan, Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci...... This is enough to show that this is indeed a masterpiece exhibition.

The opening ceremony of the foreigner was a little simpler than that in China, and after Royalt finished speaking, Tuunit also went up to speak for a few minutes, and then Miller, the senior graduate of the Louvre, made the longest professional introduction, about 20 minutes, and considered the selection of these collections.

In less than an hour, the guests and the audience began to enjoy the exhibition, and the same was true for the reporters, although they could not take pictures, after all, today's exhibition is all the master's original works, not the high-imitation prints that are usually hung outside, but no one will miss to be able to feel the master's works so truly.

"Hello, Professor Lin. ”

Lin Haven, Chang Shuo, and Bonoit, who has a strong ability to resist hits, turned their heads to look at this one together. Lin Haiwen's eyes widened, this person was the bald uncle sitting between him and Chang Shuo, who had been looking at him from time to time just now.

"This is Mr. Schmidt at the Centre Pompidou. ”

Since they were all in a circle, Mr. Schmidt naturally exchanged a few words, and he was not embarrassed to express his thoughts: "Pompidou is interested in collecting your works, in fact, we have been considering it, but due to our financial constraints, we have not been able to come to terms with the idea." The price of your work has been getting higher and higher lately, and it is likely to continue to grow, so I would venture to ask if you would like to give Pompidou a typical proto-classical painting in the form of a donation or a semi-donation?"

Half-give?

If it weren't for the fact that the French translator in the Valley of the Wicked had never gone wrong, Lin Haven would have been shocked.

β€œ...... I don't think my work fits well with Pompidou's style, hehe. ”

As an art gallery second only to the Louvre, Pompidou is world-famous for modern art, and works by Picasso, Kandinsky, Pollock and others can be seen in the museum, but classicism is not among them - if you want to see classicism, you should come to the Louvre. Is there classicism in modern times? This was the general view of the art circles in the past.

But Schmidt is clearly very sensitive: "Pompidou is not a rigid art museum, we do not limit a certain art form, we just need it to be born or developed in modern times, your source classicism is being recognized by more and more people, Pompidou is one of them, we don't want to be a follower or even a laggard, we want to be ahead of everyone, at least the majority." So, I hope you'll think about it, and despite the fact that the budget we can allocate for your work is grossly insufficient, our sincerity is full. ”

It should be said that most painters, especially modernist painters, would be ecstatic to hear Schmidt's invitation – if he had not been so pure that he had already abandoned his passions. After being collected by Pompidou, it is extremely helpful for the professional recognition of the painter - after all, contemporary art depends on who can help you blow it, if you can find a bunch of so-called authority figures to praise you, whatever you paint, you can quickly become a first-class master. Of course, this is not so easy, after all, authority is limited, and people should also cherish their feathers.

But Lin Haven is not one of them, he scolded those extremely abstract and pop as garbage, and then rushed to send his paintings in to exhibit with them, what did this be?

"Professor Lin, I believe that Pompidou's collection is in your favor, and I thinkβ€”"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't wear glasses today, I can't hear what you said, next time we have a chance to talk about this, okay?" Lin Haven smiled apologetically, and walked from Rubens's famous work "The Education of Mary Medici" to Leonardo da Vinci's "Our Lady of the Rocks".

Leaving three people to feel a little disobedience in this sentence.

Where?

They reacted almost at the same time - what does it have to do with hearing without glasses?

+300 for the wicked, from Schmidt in Paris.

Chang Shuo smiled awkwardly and helped Lin Haven make up for it: "Haven's work is indeed not so compatible with Pompidou, he may have considered it like this." ”

What can Schmidt say? Can he still scold Lin Haven in anger?

He had no choice but to smile awkwardly, and secretly swore in his heart that he would never let Lin Haven's works enter Pompidou in his lifeβ€”as if he had forgotten the fact that people had rejected him just now.

......

Lin Haven watched a round of exhibitions in a down-to-earth manner, the authentic works of these works are not always available, and more than half of them are also the first time to see the real works, for a painter of his level, it is meaningless to look at high imitations.

Benefit.

Before leaving, Director Loyat specially sent them off, and also warmly invited Lin Haven to come to the Louvre to hold an exhibition - the Louvre not only did not collect the works of modern painters before, nor did it hold modern art exhibitions, but later it may be for money, or for fear of being abandoned by the times, so it changed the rules, and now it is still a rare honor to hold an exhibition in the Louvre, but it is not so rare.

Lin Haven kept looking at Curator Royat until he got in the car and closed the door.

"Uh......"

β€œ......”

"Uh......"

β€œ...... What the hell do you want to say?" Chang Shuo didn't hold back.

"Don't you think Curator Rodt looks like a groundhog? I was very afraid that he would suddenly cry 'ah~~~'. ”

β€œ...... Nerve. ”
