"Exhibition, what exhibition?"

Tony frowned, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is also a well-known structure in the art world, it will not be worse than the Art Institute of Chicago, what does it mean that Lin Haven caught up with the Met so quickly?

"Maybe it's because he knows that he needs to pay the price for his willfulness, so he's in such a hurry, pull up the flag of the Metropolitan Museum, and find a sense of security?" Cady said disdainfully: "Lin Haven is known as a classical painter, but he is not a novice in manipulating public opinion and news, otherwise no matter how talented he is, it would not be possible to reach the current level in just a few years." ”

Cardi is of course very dissatisfied with his value being left behind by Lin Haven.

It would be better if he were a pure artist and didn't care so much about the price, but whether it was Cardy or Jeff, art was not their belief, it was just their career, and the mark of the success of the business was naturally fame, but also the auction price - in this regard, Jeff Koons still had an advantage, but Cardi had completely lost to Lin Haven.

And the difference between the two is that the price gap between Cady's works is very large, the good ones can have nine million dollars, and the bad ones may not be sought after by so many people, after all, this kind of price is blown up, and the painter has not reached the height of Pollock, so he can only concentrate on blowing so many themes and a few works. The gap between the rich and the poor in Lin Haven's paintings is much smaller, for example, "Gaia" is 12.5 million euros, but "Window-12" is also 8.55 million yuan, and "Pomegranate Flower" is 7.8 million yuan, all of which are sky-high.

Therefore, Cardi was surpassed by Lin Haven at the highest price, that is, it was fully surpassed, and the land was completely lower than Lin Haven.

At this time, he can say two words about Lin Haven in his mouth, he is obviously quite cool.

"But the Metropolitan Museum of Art will cooperate with Lin Haven like this?" Professor Dennis came to the opposite again, and the two old friends around him couldn't help but want to laugh, and they didn't care about the eyes of Tony and the others.

Tony frowned at Colin, "And then?"

"The Met's group exhibition showcasing a classical academic master, Lin Haven will be exhibiting with Leonardo da Vinci, Ingres, Poussin and others. According to media sources, Lin Haven participated with one of the latest works, and a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Museum of Art made it clear that Lin Haven had no doubt that he was eligible to be among them, and - "Colin didn't take a breath to rest, he was really afraid, if he took a break, these people didn't know what to say, how embarrassing it would be, and they couldn't take it back:" Lin Haven himself also attended the press conference and confirmed the news, uh, he also responded to the reason for temporarily adjusting his itinerary and not giving lectures at the college. ”

"What did he say?" Tony asked urgently, if Lin Haven really attacked the Academy, he had to immediately call a press conference to respond to Lin Haven's accusations.

"He said, the maple leaves on the shores of Lake Michigan are not red enough!"

"What does that mean?"

Everyone shook their heads, not understanding, including Professor Dennis.

There are several parks in Chicago, Lincoln Park, where the Lincoln Center for the Arts is located, and Millennium Park, where the Art Institute of Chicago is located, and almost every park is covered with maple trees. And very coincidentally, in the northerly Chicago, from mid-October to early November every year, it is the best time for the maple leaves, often a night rain, the maple red everywhere, attracting citizens and tourists to stop by. At this time, many people came to Chicago to see the red maple leaves.

"Does he really think that the maple leaves are not so red today?" one person guessed.

“…… Compared to last year, isn't today's maple leaf red enough?" Tony asked subconsciously, and immediately reacted, ahh

No matter how nervous the artist is, there is a limit, because the maple leaves here are not red enough, so he released the pigeons of the academy? This kind of embarrassing excuse, he is embarrassed to come up with it, whether it is Lin Haven or the Art Institute of Chicago, it has to become a joke.

Such a fork.

Colin found that the big names in the room didn't seem to realize that the news in the news really deserved their attention.

Of course, when he hesitated to remind him, someone finally reacted.

"What did you say, Giant?"

"Yes," Colin nodded repeatedly, "You can see it on Facebook or Twitter." ”

As the big guy looked down, Colin quietly withdrew.

In the lounge, there was a long silence.

"This is not going to be an impromptu exhibition," said Professor Dennis, with some emotion: "Linhaven's new work must have made a major breakthrough, otherwise the Met would not have lost its reputation to make such a decision." No wonder Adrian said that Lin Haven was quite sure about promoting the International Youth Exhibition. ”

He glanced at Tony, Cardy, Jeff and the others who were in shock, and felt quite relieved.

As a famous American painter of the classical school, of course, he is not particularly mainstream, and the reason why he will work at the Art Institute of Chicago with two old friends is entirely because the college has a deep impressionist collection and art foundation, relatively speaking, although impressionism is the enlightenment of modern art and a declaration of war on the academy, but in terms of technique, it is always closer to the academy, when you go to see Monet's "Sunrise" and "Water Lilies" At the time, the treatment of light and the representation of objects were still based on strong academic techniques.

Therefore, the Art Institute of Chicago is a well-known art school in the United States where the classical painting school is concentrated.

That's why Lin Haven will come into contact with it.

But despite this, Dennis and others have always been relatively marginal figures in the academy, and now seeing the new standard-bearer of classicism, it is very likely that they have made a major breakthrough, a major breakthrough that makes the gang in front of them frightened, and he is certainly honored.

"Why can't I see the photos of Lin Haven's new work?

“…… Maybe it's just a hyped lie. Cardy said unwillingly, but as a member of the hype community, he fully understands that with the support of the Met, even if it is hype, Lin Haven will make a profit......!

Cardy and Jeff glanced at each other, unable to hide their shock, the significance of this incident may not only lie in the feud between them and Lin Haven.

It's something that's going to turn the entire art world upside down.

Tony moved on the sofa and looked at everyone, everyone was obviously not in the mood to continue to enjoy the good time of afternoon tea at this time, so he stood up and said goodbye without embarrassment, and asked the staff to send Jeff Koons and other outsiders away, Tony called out to Dennis.

"You, or Mr. Gottlieb, find out that the reputation of the College is at stake!" said Tony, accentuating his last sentence.
