Chapter 0295 - Hot Washington
Yin Li took the girls back to the backstage, but soon, the continued applause forced them to return to the stage and accept the honor. After two curtain call www.biquge.info s, they excitedly ended their performance at the Kennedy Center.
"Thank you. ”
Yin Li gave a rare hug to Lin Haven.
As for Daisy and her team, they have already left the backstage at this time, and it stands to reason that there are performers below, but I don't know if they are in the mood to watch "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands".
"I'll go to the front first, you guys take off your makeup, and we'll celebrate together. Lin Haven greeted and went around to the entrance of the performance hall in front.
At this time, there are already a lot of people who have left the stage to watch, the middle is the original painting of "Silent Guanyin", more than 20 sketches and sketches are arranged around one after another, and the dancers of different forms of the remnant art troupe have a very unique and quiet beauty in the black and white light and shadow.
On the wall are Lin Haven's introductory posters and large avatars. So when he came over, many people applauded.
"Thank you. ”
"It's so beautiful, both in the performance and in your paintings. A plump lady with black-rimmed glasses praised him very emotionally.
"I am very touched by your compliments, thank you. ”
Lin Haven stood on the edge of the original painting, and from time to time someone would come to talk, and he would describe some creative ideas and backgrounds. Of course, more often than not, it is to accept the feeling after reading.
Shocking, beautiful, moving, incredible...... These words were thrown to Lin Haven in one go.
Until a white-haired old man stood in front of "Silent Guanyin" for 15 minutes, and then walked over, Lin Haven felt that his smile was about to stiffen.
"James Mayer, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lin. ”
Another James.
"Me too, Dear Mr. Mel. ”
"Your oil painting skills have grown at an astonishing rate," Mel said, looking at "Silent Guanyin," "and you're making rapid progress on almost every level." Especially in terms of technique and color, it is much more mature than "Yanmingyuan Street", and the structure is closer to the typical Ingres style. ”
“...... Oh, you surprised me, you've seen "Yanmingyuan Street"?"
Mel smiled: "I didn't see the original work, but my friend in Europe sent me some fine photos." By the way, I work at the Center for Modern and Contemporary Art at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. My friend says you're Adrian Gottlieb of China, and you're all in love with the Renaissance style, but obviously, that's not the case, you all have your own pursuits. This work is really amazing. ”
It's still more pleasant to meet insiders, at least you can talk. And when they're talking, the others just smile and walk away.
Not surprisingly, "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" received so much praise in Washington that it was almost hot.
"If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't feel the shock and beauty of it, and you can't know how this group of deaf and mute people can show such a high artistic level of dance performance, which is a miracle. ”
"Unbelievably great gig. ”
"With its oriental flair and stunning choreography, any part of "A Thousand Hands Guanyin" will fascinate Americans. ”
"If you're going to know what 'beauty' is, this is the perfect opportunity. ”
CBS interviewed lead dancer Yin Li after the performance, revealing some behind-the-scenes information, such as how they overcame rhythmic difficulties and remained consistent. And of course hundreds of exercises.
Lin Haven and his "Silent Guanyin" also unexpectedly received a lot of attention. Including CBS's news report, he was also given about 2 minutes of time, and Lin Haven himself didn't know if it was a friendship sponsorship or if it was indeed newsworthy.
"The opening ceremony of the American International Special Arts Festival was held in Washington, D.C., and special artists from more than 40 countries around the world showed their outstanding artistic skills and optimistic attitude towards life...... , the dance program "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" from Huaguo received the longest applause from the audience. This shocking dance comes from the ancient Buddhist cave art of China, 21 young deaf-mute dancers, through the teacher standing in the four corners of the stage, as well as hundreds of exercises, so as to show the current dance effect, the lead dancer Yin Li said......
Outside the performance hall, Lin Haiwen, the creator of the program "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands", also displayed his oil paintings and sketches for these 'Guanyin'. Many audience members also lingered on these paintings after watching the performance. ”
The footage also features a live interview with a young woman.
"I understand that in Buddhism, 'Guanyin' represents a loving God, just like Mary in Christianity. When I saw this work, I really felt that they were very beautiful, like the statues of the Virgin in the museum, with gentle eyes, elegant and noble, and his program was very good, and his paintings were very good. ”
The host in the studio began to introduce Lin Haven, and a large bust hung on her upper right side.
This is the creator of the program "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" and that work, Lin Haiwen, an 18-year-old Chinese college student who is currently studying at the best art university in China. He is also a good poet, screenwriter, music creator and company owner, a young billionaire. We interviewed him. ”
"Hi, Mr. Lin. ”
"Hello. ”
"Thank you for speaking with CBS, but can you tell us some of the ideas that came up with creating this show? You know, American audiences and netizens love this show very much. ”
"Two thousand years ago, after Buddhism was introduced to China, it began to influence and promote each other's civilization, and many Buddhist cave arts that are still alive now reflect this. When I saw a mural of a thousand-armed Guanyin in the Los Angeles Grottoes, it was so beautiful and solemn, these Buddhist gods, for more than 1,000 years, watched in silence our country, our people, experienced war, experienced peace.
This led me to decide to create a show, and I eventually decided to have a group of artists who couldn't perceive sound to represent it. As a dance program, "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" should first express beauty, and on a deeper level, I hope that the Buddhist idea of benevolence and their silent wisdom can make the viewer more open-minded and optimistic to face the unhappiness and difficulties in life. ”
I have to say that Lin Haven underestimated the attraction of an 18-year-old genius to Americans, and he is certainly newsworthy.
After CBS's program was broadcast, news such as geniuses from Huaguo began to appear in the newspapers and attracted the attention of a large number of social media users. Many newspapers have sent interviews asking for interviews to be sent to the organizing committee of the special art festival, and some even sent them directly to the mailbox of Dunhuang Entertainment Company.
"Do you think he will accept it?" In an office in Washington, the speaker was a Chinese, also in Chinese.
He is a reporter for CCTV's North American branch and has just issued an interview request to the organizing committee and Dunhuang Entertainment. Huaguo's cultural works were invited to participate in the International Arts Festival, which was originally a news point that CCTV should not miss, but unfortunately, this time it was Lin Haiwen's team and program that were performed, and the relationship between CCTV and Lin Haiwen was well known to everyone in the industry. So, in the beginning, they sent a young local reporter to take some photos and bring some promotional materials. It's a pity that with the increase in popularity, even domestic social media began to appear in foreign media and netizens, CBS's interviews with Lin Haven and Yin Li, CCTV's little information, it is inevitable that people will laugh.
The country has only temporarily decided to let them send an interview request, and they have to worry about whether they will be rejected.
