Hearing Adolf's sky-high price of 48 million euros, Li Yi didn't even think about it, so he shook his head, even if this painting is Jing Hao's only authentic handiwork, the price is a bit outrageously high. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info What's more, he now knows that this painting is the work of Guan Tong in his early years when his style was not yet mature, although it is also a superb work, but it is a little difficult for him to come up with 15 million euros, not to mention the offer of up to 400 million?

"This price is too high, Mr. Adolf, I think you should be very familiar with the ancient painting and calligraphy market in China, in recent years, although the overall price has been rising, but more than 100 million yuan of soft sister coins, that is, 13 million euros of works are still very few, so, 13.5 million, if it can be reduced to this price, I will immediately sell without saying a word."

"Oh no, Mr. Li Yi, you know that this price is impossible! As you said, I have indeed studied the Chinese ancient painting and calligraphy market, and I also have some information on ancient paintings and calligraphy with relatively high auction prices over the years...... Of course, this price is still negotiable, but it is absolutely impossible to reduce it to the price you said! ”

"It's a pity that I can only get 14 million euros at most for this painting. Mr. Adolf, if you are interested in putting it up for auction, you can let me know at that time, I don't think this painting will be able to sell for 48 million even if it is auctioned......"

Adolf shrugged his shoulders, the offer of 48 million was indeed high, but even if it was lowered again, he thought it should not be lower than 30 million, and Li Yi's counteroffer was less than half, so he also felt that there was nothing to talk about.

It's just that he can't go to the auction, he hasn't thought about it yet, because not everything is suitable for auction, and there are not a few things that have been estimated at sky-high prices, but finally failed at the auction, and the auction commissions are as high as double-digit, as well as the inescapable and unavoidable taxes after the auction is sold, is the most headache.

"It doesn't matter, there is an old saying in China, that business is not benevolent, and we can also seek cooperation in other aspects. By the way, Professor Adolf, which genre are you studying? Or what genre does your work belong to? ”

"Oh, because of my teaching, I have studied almost all the schools of oil painting in Europe, but the focus is mainly on some avant-garde art that became popular in the early 19th century, which we call Abstract Expressionism......"

"Oh? Such a coincidence? Abstract Expressionism, I remember it as if it was based on Hans. Hoffman as a representative, right? I don't know how the market is going? ”

Abstract Expressionism was one of the earliest art movements that emerged in the United States, and the rise of this art movement in the United States was related to New York's desire to replace Paris as the world's art center at that time. It was also the first major movement in Western art after World War II, marking the dawn of a new era. ”

"There are many representatives of Abstract Expressionism, Jackson. Pollock, Franz. Klein, and Robert. Motherwell, etc., are only the best of them. Of course, as the leading figure of Abstract Expressionism, Jackson. Pollock's teacher, Hans. Hoffman's place in the Abstract Expressionist movement was highly revered and irreplaceable. ”

"He opened Hans in New York. The Hoffman School of Fine Arts not only brought the authentic European concept of modern art to the American art classroom, but also helped his students break free from the limitations of European style and explore the artistic path with American characteristics. Almost half of the later Abstract Expressionist painters came from his discipleship, so in a sense, he can be called the father of Abstract Expressionism. ”

As soon as he talked about his profession, Adolf began to talk endlessly, and Li Yi finally figured out that Hans. Hoffmann is called the father of Abstract Expressionism, not because he created this method of painting, nor because he was a representative of it, but because he founded Hans. The Hoffmann School has produced a large number of abstract realist painters!

If you follow this logic, even if this guy's work is very valuable, its value should be very limited, not to mention Pollock, most of them even Franz. Klein can't compare.

But speaking of which, he really has a relationship with Abstract Expressionism. Klein's "Untitled" can be said to be the beginning of his fortune, and Pollock's "Lavender Mist" brought him such rare curiosities as "Ten Thousand Pine Winds", the Jincun Bronze Mirror, and the White Plate of Yu Jizi, and it also made a huge change in his concept. Hoffman's Dialogue......

"Professor Adolf, you haven't said Hans. The price of Hoffman's works ......"

"Well, that's about to happen. As a pioneer of Abstract Expressionism, Hans. Hoffman's work is somewhat different from the paintings of his later Abstract Expressionist painters, and he leans more towards Cubism, but this does not affect the value of his paintings. ”

"Hans. Hoffmann's work is extensive, but no more than 10 can represent his highest artistic achievement. Among them, "The Door" and "Summer Carnival", also created in 1960, should be his two most important works, if estimated according to the current market price, their value should be between 80 million and 100 million US dollars, as for the other works, there are 20 million or 30 million US dollars, millions of US dollars, some experimental works, even hundreds of thousands of US dollars can be bought. ”

"Oh......"

Li Yi nodded a little disappointed, in his opinion, the painting "Dialogue" is really not very good, it is likely to be an experimental work, in this case, even if it is exchanged, it will not have any effect. However, since I asked, I will simply find it out at one time, and I will be lucky to hang it in the future.

"Professor Adolf, have you heard of the work 'Dialogue'? By chance, I got a painting of Hans. Hoffman's work, but I haven't studied it in depth......"

"Oh? "Dialogue"? ”

Adolf shook his head and said:

"I haven't heard of Hans. Hoffman has one such work, but what I know is the dozens of works that he is more famous for, do you have a photo? ”

"Bring it, please wait."

Li Yi took out his mobile phone, flipped through it for a long time before he found this work that he put on the shelf after getting his hands, clicked on it and took a look, and when he saw that there was no problem, he handed the mobile phone to Adolf.

"Oh Maiga, this is the 'Dialogue' you were talking about? You call this painting "Dialogue"? ”

As soon as Adolf took the phone, he let out an exclamation, which made Li Yi a little baffled.

Isn't this painting called "Dialogue"? However, there is not even a letter on this painting, and even the name is given by the spirit identification card, could it be wrong?

"Oh Maiga, I don't know what's wrong, Mr. Li Yi, can you show me this painting? I thought, if it's not a copy, oh God, I just don't know how to describe it......"

Li Yi shrugged his shoulders, even if the name of this painting is a bit problematic, it is definitely impossible to be an imitation, but looking at this guy's performance, could it be that this painting should be very famous?

"God! It's not just famous, this is the "Summer Carnival" I just told you! You see, this painting uses a lot of green, blue and red, and these are the main colors of summer, and besides, this girl with red and white hair, wearing a red blouse and a green skirt, is a symbol of youth and enthusiasm, oh Maiga, if this painting is genuine, God! ”

Looking at the excited and somewhat incoherent Adolf, Li Yi calmly raised his eyebrows, I said, with the spirit card, which time to buy something is not cheap? But the time when I bought something from the brother and sister in Hong Kong, I really didn't take advantage of it!

Now it's really like Dabai, it turns out that it's not that he didn't take advantage, but he didn't know if he took advantage! And it's a big bargain!

Damn, it's terrible to be uneducated, it's such a masterpiece worth a huge amount of money, and those guys who charge protection money treat it as a reciprocal exchange for 20,000 Hong Kong dollars of protection money, and the pair of brothers and sisters want to give it to him for nothing, and what's even more ridiculous is that he actually refuses to do it! In the end, if it wasn't for the time to leave, Ouyang Chun would have taken the sheep by the hand, and this Nima would have lost a lot of money!

Shaking his head and sighing in his heart, a satisfied smile appeared on Li Yi's face, since the value of this painting has been determined, now, the chips in his hand have greatly increased.

It's just that Adolf only has this work of Guan Tong here, and the asking price is so high, it seems that there is no need to take out this painting and exchange it with him, the most important thing is that even if he exchanges it with him, he doesn't seem to have the money to make up the difference, so let's save it for later, when I encounter any rare treasures!

"Mr. Li Yi, where is your painting? Can you show me? ”

He decided not to exchange with Adolf, but Adolf was different, he held his mobile phone, repeatedly looked at the unprofessional photos, the more he looked at it, the more he felt like a genuine handiwork, and he couldn't help but feel itchy for a while.

"I'm sorry, Professor Adolf, but this painting is still in my house in Yenching, but one thing is for sure, it's Hans. Hoffmann's Authentic ......"

Why does the Soul Appreciation Pai call this painting "Dialogue"?

While dealing with Adolf, Li Yi pondered, could it be that there was something hidden here? No, Adolf is an expert in the study of abstract expressionism for such a famous painting, how could he not know what the story really is?

"Mr. Li Yi, do you have any intention of selling this painting? I can take this if I have one...... And Raphael's "Madonna of the Goldfinch" to exchange with you! ”

Adolf bit his lip vigorously, and as if he had made a great deal of determination, he said Raphael's name.

Li Yi was very surprised with a "hmm", and almost squirted, if the Raphael that this guy said is the Raphael he thinks he thinks, I'll rub it, this business is going to make a lot of money! (To be continued.) )
