Chapter 100, Western Sculpture, a Small Test
"This must be the legendary international thief, right?"
Tao Xiaoman also witnessed everything, and she thought it was incredible, those two guys just disappeared under their noses. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xi Qing nodded: "It's a thief, and it's not simple." You see that they are dressed in famous brands, and no one looks like thieves when they look at them, and no one will suspect them. That's why they've succeeded time and time again. ”
"Okay, Tao Xiaoman. It's not early, so you can rest quickly, and you will continue to study tomorrow. It's not like two men can't rest. ”
"Well, then you should rest early. Thank you. ”
"Don't thank me, if you need anything, just ask me."
"Then I won't send you into the room."
"Well, have a good night's sleep and a good dream!"
Tao Xiaoman smiled and beckoned to Xi Qing, and then Xi Qing also closed the door for Tao Xiaoman.
After Tao Xiaoman's door was closed, Xi Qing also went back to sleep.
……
The next day, Xi Qing got up and rushed to Chunier's studio.
Speaking of completing the sculpture of the Goddess of Victory, Xi Qing also knew that time was pressing, and if he didn't finish the head of the Goddess of Victory, he might lose his bet with Curator Jote this time.
And this bet is not only about its own face, but also about an honor for China.
Xi Qing never wanted to lose this honor, so he thought about it again in the car, how to more accurately carve out the face of the goddess of victory in the painting.
In the studio, Bane and Karen have their own sculptures in the works, and Mr. Cunill is still working on the head of the goddess of victory.
By this time, Mr. Chunir had completed the nose and mouth of the Goddess of Victory in the shape of the Mother of Victory.
The shape of the face was also almost perfect, and at this time, the eyes and eyebrows of the goddess of victory were troubled. The creation of Meiyu directly affected the vitality of the face of the goddess of victory, and he was not satisfied with the eyes that Chunir had repeatedly carved.
Xi Qing entered the studio, and for some reason, when he saw the artwork carefully carved by Bane and Karen, he had an inexplicable impulse, and this excitement made the warm current in his body very active.
Continuing to appreciate the work created by Bane and Karen, Xi Qing found that it was more accurate to find a flaw, or imperfection, and by filling in that flaw, the artwork could be established.
Sure enough, Karen used the carving knife in her hand to cut off the imperfect parts in the next second, and after that knife was brought, it was exactly the same as the artwork in Xi Qing's mind.
Xi Qing noticed again that this warm current can drive his brain to create more perfectly, and he almost has the ability to perfect his work, and he will probably not be so difficult to complete the statue of the goddess of victory according to the activity of the warm current.
"Mr. Chunir, I'm here."
Xi Qing greeted Teacher Qiunier, who was concentrating on his work, and Xi Qing wanted to get close to Teacher Qiunier and then look at the shortcomings of the work.
As soon as Ke Chuniel saw Xi Qing, he said with a serious look: "Xi Qing, you are finally here, teacher, I have been waiting for you for a long time." Yesterday you learned the basics of sculpture with Karen, and it just so happens that I am tired of creating the goddess of victory now, so I will continue to talk about sculpture for you, you come with me. ”
Teacher Cunir said, simply covering the statue of Victory with a white cloth.
"Teacher, we haven't created the Goddess of Victory statue yet, it seems that time is running out."
"Xi Qing, the Statue of Victory can't be in a hurry. I'll arrange the time. Now, let me tell you about sculpture first, yesterday you learned the basic information about sculpture, and today I will tell you some knowledge about sculpture. Once you have stabilized the foundation, you will be able to carve better. I ask you, did you know that there are three basic forms of sculpture? ”
"Three basic forms? Wood carving I know. ”
"It's all the same. The first form of sculpture is the round carving. The so-called round sculpture refers to a three-dimensional sculpture that is non-compressed and can be appreciated in multiple directions and angles. “
"Its techniques and forms are varied, including realistic and decorative, concrete and abstract, including indoor and outdoor, shelf and large-scale city carvings, colored and non-colored, etc.; The content and subject matter of the sculpture are even more colorful, which can be figures, animals, and even still lifes."
"The materials are basically stone, wood, metal, clay sculptures, textiles, paper, plants, rubber, and so on. As one of the modeling techniques of sculpture, round carving has a wide range of applications and is also the most common form of sculpture. Most of the works created in our studio are applied round sculptures. ”
"Next, I will take the process of making the statue of the goddess of victory to tell you about the round carving, you have to listen carefully, if you don't understand something, you must ask."
Qiunir wanted to train Xi Qing to become an excellent master carver, and how did he know that Xi Qing actually understood this.
However, when he heard Qunir say that the Statue of Victory was used as a guiding material, Xi Qing's interest was raised again.
But Xi Qing never imagined that the clay sculpture that Cunill would present in front of him was not the goddess of victory at all, but a large piece of three-dimensional square clay sculpture raw material, which had not undergone any processing at all.
"Xi Qing, this is a large piece of clay sculpture material, you don't see him at all aesthetic now, but through the hands of the sculptor, it can turn decay into magic."
Xi Qing's warm current began to move again. Although the warm current can help Xi Qing see the growth space of imperfect sculptures, Xi Qing can't see the raw materials.
Speaking of which, you really have to rely on yourself and lay a good foundation.
Xi Qing didn't speak, and Chunir did it directly.
When he saw that Chunir had brought a hammer and a chisel, and divided it by two, he struck some of the clay blocks on the clay sculpture.
The originally square stones suddenly became angular and angular, and Chunir asked Xi Qing again at this time.
"Now that you look at this clay sculpture, do you think it has changed?"
Xi Qing didn't say it, it really felt different. And Mr. Qiunier's technique is very sharp, and Xi Qing remembers his technique.
However, since the outline of the goddess of victory carved by Qunir is not yet visible, there is no prototype of the work.
However, Xi Qing was already attracted by the appearance of Qiunier's carving, and immediately really devoted himself to the world of carving, looking at the clay sculpture in front of him.
You keep watching.
Qunir continued to tap, with a very regular and rhythmic beating.
At this time, Qunir asked: Do you see it now?
Xi Qing nodded: "There is no partition in the whole clay sculpture just now, after the teacher knocked and chiseled like this, there were several partitions, limbs, heads, and now I see the limbs and heads, they have obvious boundaries." ”
Xi Qing pointed to the clay sculpture and said it to Chunil, who was immediately satisfied with Xi Qing's answer.
"Yes, what you said is not wrong at all, the round carving takes the figure as an example, generally we first have to chisel out the body of the limbs outside the volume of the head, and then chisel the head, ****, and pelvis out of the block."
Then chisel out the surface of the shape block, such as vertical, oblique, etc. After the basic shape of the human body is completed, then chisel out the concave and convex shapes of each part one by one according to the structure and proportion of the human body, such as between the cheeks and the facial features, between the **** and the neck, and between the *** and the ****, and when dividing the concave and convex parts, there should be room for the latter two processes. ”
As he spoke, he continued to tap with the chisel in his hand, hammering, and the lines of the geometric clay sculpture appeared in the next second, and the large relationship between forms and proportions began to appear.
Xi Qing was deeply attracted, and Mr. Qiunier's techniques, including his layout concept, his proportional relationship, and structural shaping, Xi Qing all experienced it.
At the beginning, Xi Qing may just rely on the warm current to add icing on the cake to the final process of sculpture, but now, this absolute learning of craftsmanship makes Xi Qing feel more satisfied and happy.
Watching as Mr. Chunir beats more and more focused, the more handsome his movements become.
What's more, Xi Qing really wanted to experience the feeling of carving.
Qiunir seemed to see Xi Qing's expectation, but he didn't think about asking Xi Qing to do it at the moment.
For a beginner in sculpture, Chunil always felt that it was not suitable for Xi Qing to come by himself, so he put down the chisel and hammer in his hand, and Chunil changed his tools, and at this time, in his hand was a smaller flat chisel and round chisel.
"Xi Qing, after the construction of the large shape, what we need to apply is our own painting skills, but what we paint is not on paper, but on sculpture."
"We use a brush or other water pen to draw a general outline on the material, and then remove the excess material other than the outline with the help of axes and engraving tools, and then use the tools in my hand to carve out the physical structure of the figure, the relationship between the facial features and the virtual and real of the clothing pattern, especially in the treatment of the character's dress, pay attention to the virtual and real, dynamic and static, wet and dry, straight, scattered, hanging and other expression methods, must have a certain painting talent and talent, can be completed."
"I know, teacher, that we also pay attention to this in wood carving."
"Yes, art is connected, I still say that. But you pay attention. Cunill was already shaking the chisel, and he wiped away the clay shards, but Xi Qing's eyes miraculously reproduced the image of the goddess of victory.
What is even more visible is the image of the part engraved by Qunier, and it is true that it is the warm current that plays a role, and Xi Qing can see the painting, and then process the current work according to the ups and downs of the characters in the painting.
said that Xi Qing didn't dare to express too many opinions before, because Mr. Qiunier is an absolutely unshakable professional.
But at this time, seeing the portrayal of every knife and every movement of Teacher Qiunier, Xi Qing couldn't help but say for a moment: "Teacher, it seems that you haven't sharpened that part enough." ”
Xi Qing subconsciously said it, and Qiunir was shocked, saw the position of Xi Qing's finger, and after a few seconds of calculation, he nodded with satisfaction, and said busily, "Yes, your memory is really good, this position is a bit thick, you have to scrape it again." ”
Qiunir didn't expect that Xi Qing was so powerful, but he had only seen the goddess of victory a few times, and he was able to grasp the proportions and dimensions of the statue of the goddess of victory superbly, which was not bad in the slightest.
It seems that this kid's ability to learn is outstanding.
The next carving of the statue of Victory took him a lot of time, and this was based on the fact that he often created the statue of the goddess of victory, and if it were left to others, he would definitely not be able to complete this initial form in one day.
After the second process was done, Qunier looked at Xi Qing again and taught carefully, "Xi Qing, we have gone through two processes from rough to fine, and the third step is to repair the light on the basis of the fine blank, the so-called polishing task is to repair the unwanted knife marks and chisel marks, and at the same time depict the subtle shapes of each part clearly, and strive to achieve a smooth and smooth artistic effect with clear texture." “
"We use small flat knives, small round knives, triangular knives, etc. These small tools are more conducive to the realization of our character's expressions, and the folds of our clothes. So, now do you want to experiment with carving? ”
On the way to teach Xi Qing, Qiunier felt that this Xi Qing seemed to be no stranger to sculpture, and his foundation was far more than a beginner in wood carving.
It should have a certain amount of sculptural skills.
From his expression, Qiunir could see his self-confidence, or Xi Qing was a genius in this area, he had a strong talent, and this talent meant that he could learn sculpture just under the simple guidance of others, and he had the demeanor of a sculptor.
Xi Qing looked at the work in front of him, after the first two processes, Xi Qing Dafan was already able to know where the defects were and where they needed to be perfected through the warm current.
Since it is learning, you should do it yourself, Xi Qingdao, "Okay, then I'll give it a try." ”
As soon as Xi Qing took the small flat knife in the hands of Master Chunir, two people came to the studio, and before Xi Qing could turn around to see who was coming, Bane had already called out first.
"Mayor Huntley, Director Jot, why are you two here?"
Bane had met the mayor and the Louvre curator with Mr. Cunill, so he recognized Jot at a glance when he saw Jot leading Huntley to the studio.
Bane greeted him with a grin, but Karen gestured to the teacher.
The attentive Cunill hadn't seen the two of them, but it was only at Karen's soft call that he spotted the mayor and the curator and slowly walked towards them.
"I was amazed that the mayor and curator were here in my little studio."
What Qunier said was that the mayor and the curator of the Louvre would come to him before, and the purpose of their visit was obvious, because of the Statue of Victory two days ago.
Huntley and Jot didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly, "O Cunill, I'm here today with the Mayor to see how your Statue of Victory is done?" You don't know, originally your statue of the goddess can be completed tomorrow, we will put it in the Louvre Museum the day after tomorrow for tourists to visit, but the mayor will go abroad the day after tomorrow to investigate, if it can't be completed today, tomorrow can't put it in the Louvre, then the day after tomorrow the mayor will not see the statue of the goddess of victory being worshipped by 10,000 people, so we will urge the workers to see if they can be driven out today? ”
"But it looks like you're not done yet, huh?"
Jot's tone was full of sarcasm, and of course Chunir could hear it, and he didn't want to talk to him. (To be continued.) )
