Episode 54 The Current Situation of the Stone Market
Recalling Mr. Peng's enthusiastic speech at the opening ceremony, Kowloon finally understood that Mr. Peng's love for the picture stone had been deeply rooted in his bone marrow, and he could not tolerate others to speak ill of the picture stone.
He does have the ability to be confident, and in this class alone, he has a professor-level level, and I believe that there are not many people who can reach the level of playing with stones like him.
Jiulong picked up the microphone and stood up, he had too many questions to ask: "Mr. Peng, in the combination of monolithic character stones, in addition to what you just said, is there any special combination?" ”
"Yes!" Mr. Peng replied affirmatively, "There is also a way not to compose words and sentences, but to compose English alphabet sequences, number sequences, etc., or to combine some auspicious words, such as 'Fu', 'Shou', 'Xi', etc., with multiple stones and one word, at this time, it is more to pursue the difference in font and calligraphy style, in order to seek the same and different interests, just like each Shou character in the Baishou banner is different."
"Is there any other way to combine them?"
Kowloon continued to ask.
"Absolutely!"
It seems that Mr. Peng is not overwhelmed, he said: "Other combinations of text stones include combinations with non-text stones, combinations with accessories and combinations of font strokes.
The combination of text stone and non-text stone, with the image language of the pattern or shape of the non-text stone to enhance the artistic conception of the word meaning of the text stone is not enough to express, is an innovative mode in the combination of text stone, it makes the artistic beauty of the combination of text stone creation, has a greater imagination space.
Mr. Peng typed a relief of the word "stone" and a kneeling humanoid shaped stone together, and the proposition was "one stone in one life".
Its meaning can be understood as a person's life is too small compared to the stone, a stone is enough in a lifetime, and a life is not as good as a stone!
It can be seen that the artistic conception expression after its combination is far beyond the reach of a single "stone" word.
There is also a combination of a text stone and a non-text stone pattern stone, one is the word "moon", one is the image of a crescent moon, and the Tibetan proposition is "today's people can see the ancient moon", which is also very interesting.
The text stone can also be combined with accessories or seats, and the image of accessories or the shape of the seats can further highlight or enhance the ideological awareness, aesthetic taste and creative theme expressed by the creator through the "text" of the text stone, which is also another innovative model worth learning from.
Mr. Peng took the example of a large fossil with the word "up and down" on one of the stones he had just punched, which is rare from the perspective of natural beauty.
However, the collector was not satisfied with this, and thought of China's long historical and cultural inheritance from the top to bottom, so he carved the image of the Great Wall on the seat with the proposition of "up and down 5,000 years", using the spatial length of the Great Wall stretching for thousands of miles to imply the time process of Chinese history, expressing the historical pride of a Chinese, thus raising the expression of natural beauty of "up and down" to the height of artistic beauty creation.
Mr. Peng also typed a picture of the word "wine" stone, the red word wine is very eye-catching on the gray-white stone surface, and the brushwork of the grass is not formal.
The stone collector uses the carved pedestal in the form of a bamboo basket for the wine jar, which is a metaphor for the whole round stone body as the wine jar, and it is also a cleverly conceived combination of seats.
The organic combination of stone naming and matching, Kowloon is the first time to hear of it, it seems that the base is also a science, and there is an opportunity to ask the master for advice.
Mr. Peng was still unsatisfied, and talked about a peculiar combination, that is, the stone friends in the XJ area took advantage of its abundant volcanic rock resources to create a unique stone book with a combination of font strokes.
The stone book seems simple, but it is not easy, at least, there must be two conditions, one is to have a wealth of material resources, large and small elephant dots, horizontal, vertical, apostrophe, pinch, hook, etc., this kind of strange stone is more, enough to choose and choose;
The second is to understand calligraphy, and the knots and chapters can not only express the beauty of calligraphy and rhyme, but also reflect the natural interest of strokes.
The text stone is a natural stunner, and it can be met but not sought.
The combination of appreciation and analysis in various forms is the rediscovery of aesthetics, but also the recreation of aesthetics.
It embodies the interaction between people and stones, and the aesthetic significance of human culture and objects that are suitable for me, and is a further level of appreciation of text stones.
Kowloon often hears the concept of 1 plus 1 is greater than 2, the combination of stones has this wonderful use, if the two sides of the text stone worth 1000 yuan, combined with Shen Yun, the price at that time is also normal to increase tenfold. Kowloon flashed a thought, although Mr. Peng is talking about the appreciation of text stones, but when used in the appreciation of picture stones and even modeling stones, there are similarities, such as figurative, imagery, and abstract classification, other types of stones can be used for reference.
The same is true for combination stones, playing with stones, in the end, are inseparable from culture.
This Mr. Peng is really amazing, there must still be a lot of ink on him, if he hadn't stood up and asked him just now, he would have rotted into his stomach just now.
Mr. Peng seemed to guess what Kowloon thought: "The reason why I didn't say what I just said was that I was afraid that it would be too long and there would not be enough time.
The audience burst into applause again.
Teacher Yu Ying stood up, arched his hand very politely, and then moved the microphone to try to make himself speak more comfortably, looked around, and slowly spoke: "Teachers, I originally wanted to join in the fun this time, and I didn't plan to speak, Mr. Peng had to ask me to talk about it, maybe it was because I love to run around the country and know some market conditions, I didn't prepare anything, so I just said a few words." ”
Master Yu did not bring a script, but looking at his confident eyes, he should also be a person who has seen the world, and he does not need to make a draft for his speech, which is not a difficult thing for him.
"The current stone market can be said to be more and more prosperous, and the so-called prosperous collection is not false at all. ”
Master Yu's opening remarks seem to make people see a bright future.
"Of course, the prosperity here still refers to the modeling stone, no matter what Mr. Peng says about the picture stone, I have to pour some cold water, no matter how the picture stone has potential, but the price just can't go up.
"I have been observing this phenomenon for a long time and have come to the following conclusions.
"Independent, the appreciation of picture stones, there is no unified standard at present, all the local stone players have the final say, and the evaluation standards are varied.
"The market size is small, and if nothing else, there is no decent market for strange stones in the fog.
"The popularity of the picture stone is low, mainly from all over the world, and there are not many people with high culture, so the picture stone can't be played.
"The local government does not pay enough attention to the development of an industry, can not do without the strong support of the government, the current picture stone market, basically rely on stragglers in the operation, can not rise the storm.
"There are many rocky mountains playing all over the place, tearing each other down, and in the end it is everyone who suffers, and no one is the winner. ”
After Master Yu finished speaking, there was a sigh at the scene, everyone knew it, but no one could change the status quo.
"Of course, when I say this, I don't mean that the outlook is pessimistic, on the contrary, it gives me a glimpse of the future of the picture stone. ”
Master Yu laughed when he saw others sighing, and everyone immediately perked up and looked forward to him talking.
