Chapter 508 Art Museum
For Li Wenhai, he just fell in love with Xu Hong. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info feel that Xu Hong is a young man who is very likely to become a great painter in Beijing, as long as he collects two Xu Hong's works, he will definitely be able to make a fortune!
Because of this, Li Wenhai has always wanted to collect two works of Xu Hong, but unfortunately, due to Chen Tian's obstruction, he was not able to collect Xu Hong's works for the entrance examination.
And this time, Xu Hong's works participating in the 'competition' can only be collected in the 'art museum'. Because this is Xu Hong's work, if Li Wenhai takes it for himself, it will be similar to corruption and bribery!
But for Li Wenhai, it is also his wish to make Xu Hong famous as soon as possible. After all, only when Xu Hong becomes famous, he can get more benefits from Xu Hong.
And this time, he asked all the freshmen of the school to visit the 'art museum', that is, he wanted to further promote Xu Hong!
After calling all the teachers who had freshmen in the class, Li Wenhai went to the art museum first.
After Cao Shihong received this call, he also told the students first. After that, he took the students to the museum.
The museum is also not far from the school building. Cao Shihong took the students in his class directly to this art museum.
Originally, Cao Shihong thought that in this art museum, there are also works by some famous artists, which are already very familiar to him, after all, he has been a teacher in this 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts' for more than ten years. He is also very familiar with this museum.
Not only Cao Shihong, but also other teachers, everyone is familiar with this art museum. No one is interested in visiting here.
The reason why they wanted to visit was arranged by Li Wenhai, and Li Wenhai asked him to train the students to visit together.
As for Xu Hong, he now feels that this may be an opportunity for Li Wenhai to deliberately arrange to promote himself. After all, when all the teachers and students arrived at the museum and suddenly saw Xu Hong's work, they would be surprised. Thinking of these things, Xu Hong was also somewhat moved! I feel that everything Li Wenhai has done to him is all for the sake of his future!
In this way, Xu Hong, the little fat man Yan Wei and Yang Nansong and other students, under the leadership of Cao Shihong, came to this art museum located behind the teaching building.
This art museum didn't exist very early. When the construction of the "Beijing Academy of Fine Arts" began, there was no such art museum. There is only one art exhibition room, which is located in a larger room in the school building.
It was only later, after Chen Tianfa developed, that he wanted to return to his alma mater, so he funded the modification of this independent building. In addition, he also donated some of his collection of works that are not particularly valuable to the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'.
However, these things are just known to the teachers and school leaders of the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts', and for these new freshmen, they don't know these things, and they only think that this building was built together with the teaching building of the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'.
Now Xu Hong, the little fat man Yan Wei and Yang Nansong came to the gate of this building together.
This building was built relatively late, so the shape of this building is relatively fashionable, and it is just an ordinary building with a long style compared to the teaching building. The architecture of this museum is very distinctive.
The building looks like a 'doctor's hat' as a whole. The whole is a circular structure with a rectangular 'hat' on top. This rectangular hat, when viewed below, is just a rectangular building, like a rectangular roof of an art museum.
But if you stand on the roof of the museum, you can see the whole roof, and it looks like a painting! On either side of this rectangle, there are two scroll-like things, making the whole roof look like a painting in the process of unfolding.
And on this unfolding painting, there are some landscape paintings, which can be said to be very vivid!
The whole architectural design is very distinctive, and it can be said that it is the most artistic building among the several buildings in the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'.
Originally, architecture is a solidified work of art, and the more modern the building, the more obvious the characteristics of this art. It can be said that modern architecture is a combination of architecture and art.
Throughout some of the world's well-known buildings, all of them contain profound artistic connotations. Because any great architect, they can't design works at will. Of course, there is a intention.
Of course, this kind of intentional action is also based on the idea of freedom in the pursuit of art. A work of art is itself a result of the pursuit of freedom. From ancient times to modern times, mankind has constantly had to solve the problem of freedom and development.
Art is something that reflects the free thought of human beings. In any work of art, it contains the essence of human beings seeking a kind of freedom.
Many great buildings contain many meanings of designers. In other words, any great building has been given a lot of content by the designer. However, only the designers themselves and some insiders can understand these implications.
For an ordinary person, when appreciating an architectural work of art, it is just an appreciation of the exterior. As a result, for some architectural works with profound meanings, he may be completely different in the eyes of ordinary people.
For example, some well-known buildings in China have been given a different name by ordinary people because of their peculiar appearance.
For example, there are many image names such as 'small waist,' 'big pants', 'jeans', etc. These names, on the surface, are merely a nod to the shape of these well-known buildings. It doesn't mean that this building contains art.
This is because it is difficult for ordinary people to appreciate an architectural artwork from the perspective of an architect, because the artistic connotations of some buildings are very subtle or even relatively abstract, and these connotations can not be seen from the appearance alone.
Take the art museum of the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts' as an example, it contains a lot of art. First of all, the whole shape is like a 'doctor's hat'. Of course, there is an implication to this. This implication means that the people who can walk into this building are people who are educated, knowledgeable, and artistic.
After all, everyone knows that the 'doctor's hat' is a symbol of knowledge and culture. When you see such a building, of course, it reminds you of things like cultural knowledge and works of art. Of course, you can also imagine some scientists and other figures, and some university professors and other figures.
In a first-class art academy, designing a building like a 'doctor's hat' is very suitable for the academic atmosphere of the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'.
But this building is not just a feature. As mentioned earlier, the roof of this building is like a painting. This makes it even more interesting. After all, the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts' is an art school, and in such a university, painting is the most important art form, so isn't it very symbolic to design the roof of the art museum as a painting that is unfolding!
Another point, which I am afraid that ordinary people can't see, is that the reason why this architectural work is designed in the shape of a 'doctor's hat' is that there is also a meaning of flying dreams. In other words, the peculiar roof is not a flat surface, but a combination of two sides, low in the middle and high on both sides.
In other words, the painting unfolds slowly, not on a flat surface, but between two sides with a very large angle.
In this way, this huge roof is particularly interesting, like a painting unfolding, like a book slowly opening, and like a big bird flying high.
As the saying goes, university is a haven for success in life. Being able to enter the university means that your life will be very exciting in the future. The university is a stage for young people to achieve their dreams, and it is also a field for young people to fly their dreams.
Such a very artistic building contains a lot of meanings, but not everyone can see so many meanings. Only a genius like Xu Hong can see some clues.
The reason why this building was designed like this has a lot to do with the person who funded it.
Because this school building was funded by Chen Tian, he just wanted to make this building very artistic. After all, he is a big collector of paintings and art, and if he wants to finance the construction of a building, the first consideration is naturally the artistic characteristics of the building.
When this building was built, there was also a bidding process. Chen Tian asked many architects in the capital to design this building. But these architects designed the works well and showed them to Chen Tian, and he just felt that these people didn't design them very well.
So, he went to the architecture department of 'Jingjing University' and asked a university professor to design the architectural works of this art museum for himself!
When the university professor learned about Chen Tian's request, he suddenly thought that he could let his students come to 'fight'. Let a few outstanding students under him design a few works first, let Chen Tian see them, and if not, he will go into battle in person.
Chen Tian listened to the old professor's words and felt that it made sense. After all, it's just some drawings, no matter how many you draw, it doesn't matter, and you don't waste anything.
As a result, the old professor of 'Jingcheng University' conducted a 'practical teaching' on some students in their class who he thought were relatively good.
These students, after designing their work, take it to their professors. After reading it, the professor picked out some works that he felt were excellent, and then handed them over to Chen Tian to read.
When Chen Tian looked at these works this time, he was immediately attracted by one of them.
The design of this work is the shape of the current art museum, which is the shape of a 'doctor's hat'.
When Chen Tian saw it at that time, he was immediately attracted by this work, and felt that the design of this work was very good. Because, this author not only painted such a work, but also wrote the meaning of this work.
I have to say that this student is really talented in design. In this way, he can be regarded as standing out from these students. After all, he didn't just paint a picture, he also wrote the 'meaning' of the painting.
Chen Tian looked at this special work, and he felt very good, plus some text descriptions next to this work. It said some of the meanings of such a work, which made Chen Tian a little in love.
So, he decided to use the work of this student to build this art museum. After all, he is the funder, and everything is up to him. Although at that time, the university professor still felt that this work was not very good, and he wanted to recommend another work to Chen Tian!
But he had no choice but to say that it didn't matter, Chen Tian was the funder, and whose work he used in the end was up to Chen Tian himself.
At that time, Chen Tian looked at the work recommended by the old professor, and he felt that the work was really not very good. The main reason why the old professor wants to recommend such a mediocre work is because the old professor is related to that classmate, and he wants to help his relative! After all, if an architecture student is a university, he already has a 'work coming out'. After that, when he was looking for a job, it was much easier, and the design institute didn't want a student who already had some accomplishments.
It's just that Chen Tian didn't like the work designed by that student, even if the old professor strongly recommended it, Chen Tian didn't give him face. After all, the relationship between this old professor and Chen Tian is not very good, just a general relationship. If it's very good, it's hard to say, maybe Chen Tian will give face to the old professor and use the works of the students he recommends.
However, now it seems that Chen Tian's choice this time was so correct. Because, after the completion of this 'art museum' building, it has been highly praised by people in the industry, who say that this building is very distinctive, and it can be similar to some well-known buildings in Beijing.
Seeing such a good review. Chen Tian is also very happy, knowing that his choice this time is correct, and this building can be regarded as a 'work of art' of his own. He'll take a look at this building in a while!
