Chapter 1609: Picasso Qualities
Although Huo Sining didn't know much about Picasso, this person's fame was famous all over the world, so she knew some news more or less. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In international art auctions, paintings can be regarded as a large category.
Chinese painting gives people a sense of comfort and beauty that is mysterious and full of poetic imagination, while European oil realism has won the love of many collectors because of its vivid and beautiful portrayals.
But Picasso's abstract paintings alone are incomprehensible.
In fact, Picasso used to be a realist in his early days, but after a period of low ebb, he began to go the strange route, distorting all the relationships between figures and perspective, and finally forming a painting in the style of Picasso.
In the past, Huo Sining only heard that Picasso's paintings could not be understood, but he had no concept at all, but now after seeing the ink paintings and sketches on these scrolls drawn out of this cylinder, Huo Sining finally had a clear judgment, that is, the paintings of this famous painter are really - I can't understand it!
The paintings in front of me are not like people or ghosts, and a layman like Huo Sining, who does not understand abstract painting, cannot see anything from the inside at all, but it is such a strange work, but it has been sold at a sky-high price at international auctions.
Two years earlier, Sotheby's had sold a painting by Picasso, the beginning of Cubism, called "Dora and the Kitten", which was sold at auction for 95 million meters.
The painting was considered one of the most expensive paintings in the world at the time and caused a great sensation internationally, but it was not long before the price was broken again by Picasso himself.
Just a few months later, Christie's in New York auctioned Picasso's abstract painting Nude, Green Leaves and Butt, which sold for 16.5 million meters of gold, more than 11 million more than Dora and the Kitten.
Huo Sining was not interested in Picasso, but this man's paintings were indeed very valuable.
So when Bai Yishan mentioned Picasso to Huo Sining, Huo Sining was so shocked, she looked at Bai Yishan in disbelief, and asked Bai Yishan in a very uncertain tone: "Sister Yishan, are you sure, this is really ...... Picasso's paintings?"
Bai Yishan shook her head: "I'm not sure, but if this is really Picasso's painting, then Ning Ning, your trip is definitely worth the price." โ
Of course, this is true, Huo Sining herself knows very well that a Picasso painting can sell for hundreds of millions of yuan, and she has made more than a dozen of them at once, which is not worth the money, it is a lot of money!
"When I was studying in France, my teacher was a standard Picasso mature fan, she was keen on every Picasso painting, as long as it was an exhibition related to Picasso, she would go to it tirelessly. โ
"When I first came into contact with Picasso's paintings, I had the same reaction as you, and I asked my teacher stupidly, I said, can it be called painting even if it's such a mess?
When she said this, Bai Yishan couldn't help laughing, and seemed to remember the situation when she first arrived in France:
Then my teacher told me that Picasso's painting should not be regarded simply as a painting or a style of painting, but as a world, and the essence of art is actually whimsical madness, and whoever is more outrageous is closer to art. โ
These words made Huo Sining and Su Qingqing thoughtful: "Just like Van Gogh?"
Bai Yishan smiled: "Maybe, but in fact, I still don't seem to understand, and I haven't fully understood the realm." I think it is very nonsense to dissect art without the artist himself, because there is no standard answer between art and aesthetics, in fact, there is no such clear boundary, only likes and dislikes. โ
Huo Sining praised this: "This is the same as antiques, some people regard antiques as handicrafts, and collectors regard them as dead things to make a fortune, but in the eyes of archaeologists, they are incomparably precious works of art." Domestic antiques are cherished by many experts, but after going abroad, they cannot be recognized by crooked nuts. This is probably the difference between liking and disliking. โ
Bai Yishan looked at the paintings in her hand again, nodded, and said again:
"But Picasso still has a lot of qualities that are admirable and absolutely not found by other painters. โ
Huo Sining was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "What are the advantages and characteristics?"
Bai Yishan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "His name is long, his life is also very long, and there are many women. โ
"Poofโ"
Huo Sining just picked up the mineral water bottle and drank water, and when he heard Bai Yishan's words, he immediately sprayed.
Over there, Su Qingqing also showed an expression that you are teaseing me.
Even Gu Xu couldn't laugh or cry, and Miss Yue was directly happy: "Eldest sister, this is also a merit trait?"
Bai Yishan asked rhetorically: "Count, why not?"
Then, very seriously, she began to analyze it for a group of laymen, and first said in a mocking tone:
"Picasso, I said his name was Pablo Picasso, right? But, actually, his name was Pablo Diego Josรฉ Francisco...... Picasso, a lot of this is omitted, because I can't remember it, anyway, if it is transliterated in Chinese, it is more than 70 words, this name, isn't it very long?"
Several people glanced at each other, and they all nodded in unison.
Mom, 70 words, Huo Sining secretly slandered in his heart, such a long name, let alone Bai Yishan, I'm afraid even Picasso himself can't remember it, right?
Then I said that he lived a long life, which is definitely a merit, and those internationally famous painters, including Van Gogh, including Leonardo da Vinci, including Monet Raphael, these painters basically suffered from physical or mental diseases to a greater or lesser extent in their later periods, but Picasso did not. โ
"When you see these distorted abstract paintings, do you think this person is insane? But no, Picasso was physically and mentally healthy, and lived from the early 80s of the 19th century to the 70s of the 20th century. โ
Some people even joked that if he had stayed up for a few more years, he might have been able to see Comrade Xiaoping touring the painting circle in the south! This painter not only experienced World War I, World War II, and the Spanish Civil War, but also spanned the modern and modern eras, and lived longer than any other painter. โ
Huo Sining and a few others glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but be stunned and amazed. (To be continued.) )
