199, no, it's in your hands
Wan Changsheng is also the only one in Shuchuan Academy of Fine Arts.
Just three or five days after officially going to school, I was taken out by the head of the department to get a job!
And it is also a well-known sculpture department with rich oil and water.
It was a big engineering major that didn't open for three years, and it took three years to open.
As for students going out to do engineering and business with their teachers, it is a common thing in the Academy of Fine Arts.
Any teacher can respond justifiably that this is a social practice with the purpose of teaching.
It's just that in addition to following the teacher to draw some food paintings to sell, the students of Guoyou printmaking do not have as many ways to make money as the students majoring in advertising, decoration, and environmental art.
Even if it is a comic book with a picture book, students who learn to print and bind can leak a lot of work from the teacher.
Therefore, if the Academy of Fine Arts puts aside the artistic attributes, it is a highly professional vocational and technical school.
The earning power of each major is much stronger than that of many science and engineering universities.
After graduation, I generally don't worry about my job.
But Wan Changsheng, a freshman majoring in Chinese painting, started with the head of the sculpture department as soon as he came up, and the starting point was really high enough.
Guo Huaisheng himself is a Land Rover found, and he is also equipped with a driver, he is indeed very bossy and pulls Wan Changsheng to sit in the back, at this time Wan Changsheng felt that the back row of his car seemed to feel much better than this car, and the smooth and silky feeling was much more comfortable, this car was a bit of a wave, like sitting on a boat.
Of course, it can also be the result of several years of frequent use.
But the advantage is that the inside of the carriage is indeed wide, and the head of the sculpture department took off his coat and fastened his seat belt, and motioned to Wan Changsheng in the back row to do the same: "Tell me how you think about making this sculpture." β
The angle from which he looked at the fiberglass thing in his hand was definitely different from that of Qiao Yu and Lao Tong.
Wan Changsheng simply explained: "It is the stage, from different angles, this stage has different interpretations, the front is the curtain, and when the curtain is opened, what you see is the performance, but in fact, it is like this when you look at it from the side, and it is like this when you look at it from the back, what the audience sees in the eyes of the actors, and there is a big difference between what the actors see when they stand backstage." β
Guo Huaisheng looked at the sculptures: "The details are very rich, and the theme is a bit scattered, but the shaping skills are reflected, which is a bit interesting......"
Wan Changsheng is honest: "The first time I made this kind of new creation, I used to make clay sculptures of Bodhisattvas and stone tablets, and even the turning of molds was just taught to me, but I enjoy this feeling of free creation...... This is how I felt after visiting the National Centre for the Performing Arts, where I was also exposed to several modern sculptures for the first time, and at that time, I didn't realize what that kind of industrialized or abstract sculpture had anything to do with clay sculptures......
Guo Dacang was a little dissatisfied with this freshman's insult to the sculpture industry: "You should always know some basic knowledge in art class in middle school, right?" β
Wan Changsheng was ashamed: "I come from the countryside, and I give art classes to my classmates in primary and junior high schools, because my family has been painting murals in the temple for generations to make clay sculptures, which is a well-known thing in the surrounding three towns and five villages, but at that time I didn't realize the meaning of art, and I usually played alone, and it was a bit self-righteous to say that it was ugly, and I didn't know about Michelangelo and DΓΌrer until I came out to read the art intensive class." β
The head of the department was still unbelievable: "You don't know the sculpture department until the Academy of Fine Arts?" β
Wan Changsheng was helpless: "From knowing Mr. Cao to Mr. Tong, including Mr. Zhao Leilei and Mr. Zhao, they all think that I should paint Chinese painting, and I have never mentioned to them my experience of being a bodhisattva and hitting stones. β
The head of the department leaned back in the spacious chair, observing the objects in his hands through the turned on overhead light, and his face was full of self-deprecation: "Yes, the emasculated craft has shrunk like this...... Five years of undergraduate, recruited are still a blank sheet of paper without any craftsmanship, what kind of sculpture talent can this cultivate? β
Then he frowned and looked at Wan Changsheng: "How old are you, you just entered your freshman year and went to a training class, don't you feel sorry for your craft?" β
It can be heard that the head of the department looks down on the students who make money by running training courses.
It is indeed at the bottom of the chain of contempt within the entire Academy of Fine Arts, and only the waste materials that have not made breakthroughs in professional art will turn around and make money on art candidates.
Wan Changsheng only wants to seize the opportunity to learn sculpture, but he will not be afraid of leadership and authority: "If you do a good job in art examination training, it is the greatest support for the Academy of Fine Arts, for example, you said that the sculpture major will be studied for five years, but you can recruit not clay sculpture, these days I have also heard, in the past, the sculpture department was basically surrounded by the Academy of Fine Arts, because those students with the best professional foundation have begun to learn the basics of sculpture from the age of fifteen or sixteen, and take the entrance examination of the sculpture department as their goal, and now there is no sculpture, I simply canceled the clay sculpture exam for the sculpture department of the school exam, right? β
Guo Huaisheng snorted and laughed: "Your heart is not small, the old boy taught you?" β
Wan Changsheng shook his head: "It's a duck on the shelf, I originally held a free art training class in my hometown, popularized it to rural children, lest they be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts like me to know that there is a sculpture department, and let people who have no talent learn at least a craft, but after entering the Academy of Fine Arts, Mr. Cao simply handed over the Damei Training School to me to manage, and Mr. Tong also connived at me to make some attempts, such as ...... This year, I want to do some high-quality courses for the stage art major, and invite the teachers and professors of the Pingjing Drama Academy to come and give lectures, which can be regarded as some early training for students in this area, sculpture, and now I think there is also this possibility, but this is obviously not a three-to-five-month intensive class that can solve the problem, and it has to be cultivated for a long time. β
The head of the sculpture department was looking at Wan Changsheng: "Do you think it's possible?" β
Wan Changsheng's attitude has always been: "Do it first, I have a few cards in my hand now, and I can do it slowly, maybe it's okay." β
Guo Huaisheng was not as big as he looked on the outside, and muttered: "Then you take this matter as a topic to study, this clay sculpture Bodhisattva is your separate interview, if I pass here, I will go to the academy to ask for your sculpture major, even if it is a double degree study, this matter is not difficult, I hope you are worthy of your heart at this time." β
Wan Changsheng didn't pat his chest and shouted slogans, but he said loudly.
It was already eight or nine o'clock in the carriage, and it was quiet for a while before Guo Huaisheng spoke: "Show me the Bodhisattva you hand-painted before." β
Wan Changsheng took out a small book again.
The head of the sculpture department looked at it: "Do you do too many stone statues?" β
The Buddha statues in several major grottoes are regarded as few treasures left in China, and they are also the focus of the sculpture department.
Wan Changsheng shook his head instead: "Don't do it...... We do mud Bodhisattva is to be taken care of as a business, every once in a while to make a new Bodhisattva is a gimmick, to attract pilgrims and believers to make sesame oil money, what do you do when the stone Bodhisattva is replaced, it is disrespectful, and it is difficult to take care of it. β
Guo Huaisheng smiled dumbly: "Haha, you are an interesting guy, it seems that you do have a good attitude to talk about business." β
Wan Changsheng grimaced and didn't speak.
The driver in the driver's seat also glanced at the unusual young man in the rearview mirror.
But in the chat, Wan Changsheng mentioned that he was from the Guanyin Temple in Ningzhou, and Guo Huaisheng suddenly realized: "Ah? I've heard of it, I've heard of it, I've heard that it's a thousand-year-old temple, but it's a very commercial smell, so I haven't studied it, no wonder, no wonder ......"
On the way to Rongdu, he also passed through Ningzhou, but this time Wan Changsheng naturally passed by his hometown.
Because when I arrived in a town near Rongdu, it was past eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.
Guo Huaisheng took Wan Changsheng and the driver to eat a barbecue supper in the place where the street lights were bright, and by the way, the driver was also Wan Changsheng's senior: "Xu Huan, now a graduate student, you can be regarded as your senior brother, I don't have so much time to take you to familiarize yourself with so many basic things, but I estimate that you will get started quickly, go back and zoom in on the stage in the car first." β
This is the second time Wan Changsheng has heard Guo Huaisheng say that he should enlarge his small creations.
No, the point is that you have already recognized Wan Changsheng as an apprentice?
It's time for the apprentice to show his hand.
