Section 33 One Man Against Freehand
That work may be Qin Huai's painstaking work, so it is particularly precious and not easy to show. β
Old Mr. Yan thought to himself, probably so, since this is the case, he will not be forced to make it difficult, and move on to another topic.
Today, Mr. Yan came to the exhibition, but he was actually invited to teach the concept of nuclear carving to the younger generations.
Just take advantage of the three excellent examples cited by Qin Huai to talk about the concepts that have been admired over the years.
"All in all, the freehand of nuclear carving is the greatest embodiment of the value of nuclear carving! I hope that all nuclear carvers will work hard in this direction. β
The applause was thunderous, obviously agreeing with Mr. Yan's freehand concept.
In the crowd, only a middle-aged man silently gritted his teeth and said nothingβhis philosophy was completely contrary to Mr. Yan's. However, others are soft-spoken, and they are not as weighty as Mr. Yan......
Raise a rebuttal?
You should be drowned in saliva, right?
β¦β¦
"Okay, I don't want to say much, you talk to each other. β
Seeing the inspired appearance of the nuclear carvers, the wrinkles on Mr. Yan's face stretched, and the younger generations were willing to learn, and the nuclear carving would definitely reach its peak one day.
Mr. Yan waved his hand, and any group of nuclear carvers communicated in twos and threes, so that they could collide with various ideas and concepts through exchanges.
β¦β¦
"Thank you, Mr. Yan, for your advice, and thank you for your comments. β
The young man still doesn't know what Qin Huai's identity is, but no matter what his identity, it's no problem to say a word about Mr.
"Hey, it's not easy. Qin Huai Xiaoyou did not hide the slightest bit of selfishness, and told you the most quintessential concept of nuclear carving, this is your blessing, and you understand it thoroughly, and it is only a matter of time before you polish your skills diligently and become a famous nuclear carving master. β
Mr. Yan said appreciatively.
In fact, in all walks of life, there is a saying that the apprentice is taught and the master is starved to death.
Mr. Yan was apprenticed under the names of many masters back then, and they all had skills that were not passed on......
There are even a few masters who would rather take their skills into the grave and turn them into a piece of loess than pass them on.
In the current Jinling nuclear carving circle, there is also a trend of hiding smuggling.
And Qin Huai's generous quality of giving advice and generosity is particularly precious.
Fang Cai's three work ideas, any one of them is amazing, and most people are really reluctant to make it public.
This is the style of a grandmaster.
The more Mr. Yan looked at Qin Huai, the more he felt pleasing to the eye.
The grandmaster is the leader of the nuclear carving circle, and whether a grandmaster has a broad mind or not greatly affects the prosperity of the circle.
If a grandmaster is very narrow-minded, then the group of nuclear carvers below will also form gangs and intrigues.
There is no way to talk about prosperity and development.
β¦β¦
"You guys get busy first, and I'll walk with Xiaoyou. β
Mr. Yan waved away the juniors who followed him, while Qin Huai supported Mr. Yan on the left side, and Shang Ya supported him on the right side, stop-and-go.
Everyone began to understand that Qin Huai was indeed a closed disciple of Old Mr. Yan.
β¦β¦
"This year's nuclear sculpture exhibition is larger than ever. β
Mr. Yan smiled kindly with relief, and while speaking, he half-bent over, as if he were looking at his own son, carefully browsing the nuclear carvings on display.
Mr. Yan has a lot of wrinkles on his face, as well as age spots, but it does not affect his appearance, but he looks respectful and very elegant.
He is very serious about appreciating nuclear carving works, no matter who it is, he treats them equally, and when he meets a young nuclear carver, he first points out a few words, and then encourages them.
When you meet a famous teacher, you will give a little guidance.
"In the past ten years, the nuclear carving circle in Jinling Province has developed rapidly, and these nuclear carving works on display are full of fun, haha......"
Mr. Yan looked at the nuclear carvers and collectors who came and went, and couldn't help laughing, this smile contained too many emotions.
Maybe it's reminiscing about the hard years when I almost couldn't hold on.
Perhaps I am sad for my colleagues who once made up their minds to stick to the nuclear eagle and finally had to give up for their livelihood.
In that era, perseverance was like a lonely lamp that could dry up tears at any time, desolate and bright in the dark night of shadow and longing, I don't know when it will break, I don't know when, I don't know when, in order to usher in the dawn.
However, in the end, I survived.
"By the way, I should have asked you to bring the nuclear boat to the exhibition that day, but people are old and forgetful. β
Old Mr. Yan said quietly.
"It's already sold. β
"Sold?!"
Old Mr. Yan was taken aback.
"yes, it's at the private auction next door, and I don't know how much it will sell for. β
Mr. Yan opened his mouth in a daze, and stopped talking.
Isn't it a painstaking effort? He thought that Qin Huai was unwilling to show it easily, but he didn't expect to throw it directly into a private auction?
And Qin Huai's fluttering tone ...... It's casual.
"Hey, there's another Dongying booth here?"
Qin Huai suddenly saw two Dongying girls in kimonos standing over there.
On the booth there is a Dongying script, on which are placed several nuclear sculptures, accompanied by Chinese translations.
"Well, these people seem to come once every three or four years, they covet our nuclear carving skills, come to 'exchange', and when the stealing is over, they will beat them up...... Unbridled advocacy, saying that our nuclear carving skills have not been inherited well, and they have been carried forward by Dongying. β
Mr. Yan said with a smile after tea.
"Stealing nuclear carving? Arbitrary, this is the export of cultural soft power. β
To be honest, it's not that Qin Huai looks down on Dongying stealing teachers.
Take learning kanji as an example, I learned a katakana and went back triumphantly, but I didn't learn the true essence of kanji at all.
Even the most important words have only been learned one-sidedly, and other stealing tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and incense ceremony can learn the essence?
If you think about it a little, you can understand what virtue is.
It's all about preaching.
After decades of building the economy, ordinary people want to improve their material conditions, who will pay attention to these?
Therefore, many excellent traditions have not been popularized, but if they are not popular, it does not mean that the inheritance is broken.
How many sparks are hidden in the territory of the Chinese family?
For example, the lacquerware master Gan Ye (in order to express respect, use his real name), ten years of sharpening a sword, is to only in the Song Dynasty literature a little, the production method has long been lost rhino skin perfect restoration.
There is no sample to follow for this production technique, so it can only be explored step by step. Lacquerware, on the other hand, is precisely the most difficult craft to explore - because a lacquerware requires dozens or hundreds of complicated processes from billet to finished product, and it often takes a whole year.
Any mistake in drying and painting will make all the work wasted.
It is such an irreducible rhino leather lacquer technique, which is reproduced in the hands of Master Gan Yi, and the graceful style of Song Dynasty lacquerware is once again displayed in front of the world.
Master Gan said: "A thousand years ago, our ancestors were able to make the most exquisite lacquerware, and a thousand years later, we can still make the most exquisite lacquerware.
In fact, Pingyao also has a complete lacquerware manufacturing process, and it was inherited in the Tang Dynasty 1,200 years ago, during which it has been carrying forward the past and forging ahead into the future, constantly innovating, but ...... I've never had a documentary.
"Hahaha, that's what I thought back then!"
Mr. Yan and Qin Huai's calmness hit it off, and the local gameplay of the Chinese family is actually the most convenient for the people of the Chinese family to play.
Perhaps because of the war and the need to build an economy, we have to let go of it first.
But if we start to pay attention, then sorry, your dad is still your dad.
"However, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard. We need to not only pass them on, but also make them universal. The burden is up to you. While developing nuclear carving, try to help other skill guardians. β
Old Mr. Yan patted the back of Qin Huai's hand.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Mr. Yan, forgive the juniors for being rude. The younger generation does not dare to completely agree with the concept you said just now.
Realism is also a kind of art, and I can carve the nuclear carving to a level that is comparable to the realism of the photo, isn't it also an art?
There is nothing wrong with personal opinion and the pursuit of ultimate realism. β
A middle-aged man in his thirties with half long hair came to Mr. Yan.
Loud voices raised different opinions.
"Mr. Yan just said clearly, realism to the extreme, can it be compared to three-dimensional printing? The reason why nuclear sculpture has artistic depth is because of freehand. β
The nuclear carver in the back immediately retorted.
Old Mr. Yan had already said it so exactly, plus Qin Huai's three excellent examples just now.
Isn't it clear how to choose between freehand and realism?
"Yes, realism is a dead thing, but freehand can be a poem with a very meaningful meaning. A painting that can imagine the cause and effect. β
More and more nuclear carvers are joining the crusade against middle-aged men.
