Chapter 264: Pop Art
Without a friend's reminder, the moment Luca saw the sculpture, he realized that he had been targeted, and his face suddenly changed......
Especially after seeing the whole picture of the sculpture, he was even more taken aback in his heart, and had a bad premonition. As a perfectly commercialized sculptor who sees sculpture as a lucrative profession, he knows better than anyone else the essence of commercial sculpture.
Therefore, he can clearly understand the balloon dog sculpture in front of him, and the commercial elements in it are absolutely popular.
In fact, the cheers of nearby tourists also fully confirm this.
"Wow, this thing...... It's so special. ”
"Cute ......"
"I want to, even if I can't afford a large one, is there a small one?"
If it weren't for the staff's obstruction, I'm afraid a group of tourists would have crowded over and reached out to touch the balloon dog. The main thing is that they want to verify whether this shiny thing is a real balloon or not.
The main thing is that the ethereal and light texture is too deceptive. Even if some people know that the balloon can't be so bright and shiny, they can't help but want to verify it themselves.
The cries of the masses also woke up a group of sculptors.
"What's going on?"
These people were stunned, looked around them, and saw elated, crazy and obsessed faces. They were puzzled, what is so good about such a sculpture, how popular it is.
Not only that, but some critics also seemed to realize something, and immediately leaned over to watch the building.
Stand under the sculpture and look up at the sculpture.
Reach out and touch the ......
"Hey, this texture, hard and cold, should be stainless steel. ”
A critic is sure that he is a professional sculpture critic, and he is well aware of the mainstream sculpture materials, and he has also dabbled in niche and remote materials.
So as soon as he got started, he sighed: "This weight is at least several tons, but what is presented is a light and fluttering state, which is the visual effect of the modeling." ”
"Pop art. ”
Someone next to him answered: "I didn't expect that Bai Ye actually has such a high attainment in pop art, I thought he was following the path of an orthodox sculptor." ”
"Hey, I'm not surprised. ”
One person smiled: "He is a well-known person...... Mixed. Learn miscellaneous, know a lot of things, the key is miscellaneous and fine, belongs to the all-rounder. ”
Although many people, wondering when he will encounter Waterloo. However, before he failed, everyone still had some expectations for his next work. ”
The man said softly: "The previous Iron Giant, I thought it was very good when I saw it, but I didn't expect it to be the work of his assistant." ”
"Now he's done it, and the sculpture he has made is a bit ...... Unexpected. ”
Several other critics couldn't help but nod their heads.
This work is really surprising. They are well aware of the situation of domestic sculpture, and the mainstream is realistic style and abstract style. In other words, avant-garde minimalism, modern installation art.
As for pop art...... It's a niche.
The so-called pop art is actually pop art and popular art. To put it bluntly, it is an art style of commercial art form.
For example, the promotional poster of the sculpture exhibition can also be regarded as the category of pop art.
It is an art form that is open to the masses, can be consumed at will, is cheap, can be mass-produced, and is full of commercial elements aimed at young people.
There is no doubt that the balloon dog sculpture in front of me fully fits the definition of pop art.
In the eyes of traditional and mainstream artists, such art is inevitably judged and full of controversy.
In this regard, several critics certainly do not care. They also wished that the controversy would be stronger, so that they could fish from it...... Ahem, no, it should be "pointing the way" from it.
As the saying goes, it's good to fish in troubled waters. Critics are never afraid of controversy, they are afraid that they will not be lively enough and lose their usefulness.
"What, this is pop art. Out of the wonder ......"
There was a sculptor, who listened to a few words sporadically, and sure enough, his face changed, with a look of disdain: "Bai Ye has fallen, and after tossing for a few days, he will take out this thing." ”
"yes, shame ......"
Someone agreed with this and took the opportunity to step on it: "As a famous artist, he has lost himself, and I look down on him as a sculptor of the eighteenth line." ”
"Ahem!"
Someone next to him looked back and nodded, agreeing with one of the other party's views.
That's right, the other party is indeed the eighteenth-line......
"Click!"
While despising and denigrating Bai Ye, some sculptors are also a little weak-minded. The main thing is the reaction of the tourists next to you, is it too enthusiastic?
Taking pictures, group photos, and video recordings are also considered normal operations. The question is, how did the originally big encirclement get smaller and smaller?
Nearly 1,000 tourists gathered, and the black pressure crowd was crowded. More than a dozen staff members, even if they pull up the cordon and use their bodies as a wall, they can't stop everyone's enthusiasm.
The mighty crowd is like the ebb and flow of waves in the sea, constantly lapping the shore. The only difference is that the waves will recede, but the crowd will only press on step by step, squeezing the "living space" of the staff little by little.
A space of more than ten meters, only a few meters are left in the blink of an eye. The glittering sculpture is already within reach. Stretch out your hand and you can touch it.
In the excited and blazing eyes of everyone, Deng Shaoying made a decision, and he didn't know where to take out the loudspeaker, and shouted loudly: "Everyone pay attention......"
Under everyone's gaze, Deng Shaoying gave the order: "Withdraw!"
He was the first to go, leaving the dumbfounded crowd behind. Immediately afterwards, a group of staff reacted and also went with them. Before leaving, I also carefully picked up the sundries and did not leave any garbage.
Only the sculptors, ignorantly left in place. And then they were received, what is called the vast sea of the masses.
There was a crowd of people, and they struggled to the death, going with the flow.
Hundreds of tourists rushed to the balloon dog, but fortunately the sculpture was heavy enough to remain unmoved under the pressure. Something weighing a few tons or a dozen tons, like a mountain, is not afraid of crushing at all.
On the contrary, the enthusiasm of the masses, after being released, also calmed down. Coupled with the fact that someone next to him was appeased, order was slowly restored.
Everyone was in an orderly manner, lined up a few times, and stepped forward one by one to feel the charm of the sculpture.
At the edge of the long line, some sculptors wore chicken feathers on their heads, messy in the wind. They can't figure out one thing, this ...... Broken thing, is it that good?
A bunch of people are crazy, is it necessary to be so excited?
"Vulgar mass aesthetic. ”
A sculptor looked at the fanatical crowd and couldn't help but complain: "The residue of the consumption era is still displayed in a grand manner, it is simply ...... Disgrace. ”
"Shame on the art world!"
