Chapter 298: This is stable

Hedwig can only let go in front of herself. Maybe in front of her uncle and aunt, these two people made her feel some of the warmth of home.

"Is it delicious?"

"Hmm......" Chen Xing dragged a long note and nodded in Hedwig's expectant eyes,

"It's okay, but a pasta is a little simpler, I hope you can make more others for me to taste in the future."

"No problem, my aunt taught me a lot. Did your school start so early, I didn't expect you to come back now. ”

"I have to go to Arles." Chen Xing said. Seth has held nine photo exhibitions in Europe, starting in Paris, currently in Denmark with his team, and will soon return to Arles for the final one, starting in France and ending in France, in response to the question of who is the best new talent in Asia.

"Still leaving? When. Hedwig finally waited for Chen Xing to come back, but she didn't expect to have to leave again.

"Tomorrow." Clean your bedroom at home today for a simple day of rest. Hedwig ate little, made herself a sandwich and ate it for lunch.

She has already thought about what to do for Chen Xing at night, why don't she buy some steak in the supermarket and eat beef at night?

The main reason is that Chen Xing likes to eat beef and mutton, and steak is simpler than lamb chops. Hedwig took Chen Xing to see the paintings she had created during this time.

She came up once in advance, probably hiding everything that shouldn't be seen by Chen Xing, Chen Xing's eyes subconsciously looked at the wardrobe, and the things that were slightly raised under the quilt next to the wall, and his smile was a little funny.

After looking around, he asked, "What about the one you drew earlier?" The one by the sea. ”

"Sold." She touched one of her paintings and asked,

"Guess how much?" Chen Xing looked at her a little proudly and said, "Five thousand? Six thousand? ”

"Five thousand...... How do you know? "I guessed it right at once. Chen Xing pretended to shake his head mysteriously: "This is a secret." "She's not well-known now, and it's nice that her previous works can be sold as ornaments for two or three thousand euros.

But she has this very happy expression, and it is definitely not the original price of two or three thousand. When she was exhibited on campus before, her painting was liked by many tourists, and she did paint that painting with strong feelings.

So, a small doubling is no problem. It takes a long time for Hedwig to paint an oil painting, but this trend is enough for her to live in this country.

It doesn't matter if you don't go back to the United States, Paris can accept artists from all countries. Even Chen Xing didn't know that Aunt Lizi also exempted her from the accommodation fee in this house, and only needed her to clean the house every day or every other day, mop the floor or something.

Her own room was messy, but it can't be said that Hedwig doesn't like to be clean. A small room is both a bedroom and a studio, chaos is normal, the painter is not as worry-free as the photographer, all the equipment is solved by a moisture-proof box, go out with a camera, come back only with the computer to retouch the picture and adjust the color.

At present, her easel is a picture of the back of a family portrait in the park. I don't know if the color is influenced by Chen Xing, this painting has many colors, but the tones are convergent, and there is a soft warmth.

Great for a painting to hang on the wall of the living room. Chen Xing went back to the room to change a sheet, and was about to throw the original one into the washing machine downstairs, when Hedwig came and knocked on the door, and then asked outside, "Can I go to Arles with you tomorrow?" ”

"Yes."

"That's great, I haven't been out of Paris a few times in a long time." She said with a smile, and then the door to Chen Xing's room opened.

Chen Xing put a bunch of things in her arms and said, "Please help me wash these things, as well as the clothes I put in the washing machine before, thank you very much." ”

"Good...... Okay......" Hedwig replied a little woodenly, but became a little agitated as she went downstairs.

Chen Xing even let himself wash his clothes, so he must be very important to him, do I also have a chance to be his girlfriend?

With this in mind, Hedwig walked with a pleasant wind. The time quickly came into the evening. Chen Xing was lying on the bed, a little unable to sleep.

It's a little hot. The temperature in Paris is actually a bit like the north of the country, with short summers and long winters, but because it has a temperate maritime climate, the air is not as dry as the north, and it is generally a more livable city.

But this year isn't hot all over the country, and Paris is no exception. Chen Xing, who was used to sleeping in an air-conditioned room, felt that this night was a little hot, and he knew that he should buy a mattress to sleep during the day.

No air conditioning in such a big house? Yes, Chen Xing has never seen air conditioning in the most prosperous area of Paris, especially this kind of old house.

Not to mention the air conditioner, there are no fans. He fell asleep very late, and if it wasn't for Hedwig to call him to eat the next day, Chen Xing probably wouldn't have been able to catch the train to Arles at noon, and even then there was no time to eat, so Chen Xing found a taxi to take them to the train station.

When he arrived in Arles, there was no one to pick him up, Chen Xing did not tell Monsieur Abbott that he had returned to France, and Seth had not yet returned to China.

"Is your exhibition right here?"

"It's a photography festival, not my art exhibition, but it seems to be coming soon." When Seth comes back, they will have a show here, and it is the first time that the photo taken by Chen Xing in Wuyuan has been displayed.

This photo is now favored by many modern museums in France, and even outside France there are people asking if they have any intention of selling it, which makes Chen Xing quickly remove the photo from his website.

He didn't expect this photo to be so popular, and he couldn't think of a reason for it. Photographers basically can't tell the difference between the superior and the inferior after determining their own style, what they can do is to make their work as close as possible to a certain group.

For example, some people develop high-end and make the kind of works that others can't understand. There are also people who shoot people who are close to the people, so that the majority of people who have no foundation can see it and like it, and they can understand it, just these two paths.

Chen Xing thinks of himself as the second type. When he graduated, he took a minimalist style to come to the lake, and the photos had no theme and story, only lines and compositions, which was also taught by the professor.

And Chen Xing himself doesn't like this. So these museums fancy the story behind this photo?

What's the story? The passage of time? Weathered to the point that you can't see the face and the portraits of those who only have lines, this kind of thing seems to be not available in Europe, right?

Anyway, it's okay if it's hot, and Chen Xing can't manage it so much for the time being, which is a good thing. Chen Xing first took Hedwig to find a hotel to stay in.

Rencontres d'Arles is coming to an end, and the awards will be announced at a later date, so there are a little more tourists here than in previous days, and the hotels in Arles are gradually filling up, and tourists are even staying directly in the homes of locals.

This kind of exhibition, which is often held for two or three months, is the most lively at the opening and closing. That is, the next period of time.

Hedwig and Chen Xing are not in the same room, her room is upstairs, and when the things are put away, she ran down to find Chen Xing without any makeup, and said, "Take it to me to see the photos you exhibited!"

"Right now." Chen Xing picked up the camera, hesitated slightly, and gave him a 65 head. The response to Hasselblad's evaluation at home and abroad has been very good, and if there is a chance to go to Hasselblad's headquarters, Chen Xing will definitely ask them for a few new lenses.

I heard that it has been developed, but it has not been released. Maybe want to release with x2d?

It would be nice if I also gave myself a new one when I was reviewing, but unfortunately at that time only an ordinary head was mounted, and Chen Xing didn't use it much, and after getting the camera, he used three fixed foci that he bought again.

On the way towards the arena, Chen Xing asked, "Haven't you seen those photos?" Why are you still so excited? They all live under the same roof, and because Hedwig's room window can see the sunset and the Eiffel Tower, Chen Xing often goes to her room to edit and color the film, and she has naturally seen Miao Zhai's work.

"The atmosphere is different from watching it on the computer, I haven't participated in a photography exhibition yet, and I want to experience it." There are a lot of people in the arena.

Rencontres d'Arles' main venue is dedicated to the work of some of the world's best photographers.

The arena is only a relatively important sub-venue, but because Chen Xing and the photographer of that island country are frantically buying popularity to increase their popularity, more and more people are coming to this sub-venue specifically for them.

As a result, there are no fewer people coming here than in the main venue. Moreover, the works of emerging photographers are also very interesting, and seeing more of the works of those who have heavier expressions can also edify the body and mind.

Hedwig heard the person next to her discussing Chen Xing, so she pulled Chen Xing's clothes slightly to remind him.

Looks like a couple hired a local art guide in Arles? The tour guide, a middle-aged man in his forties, was introducing them to the works in the exhibition hall that were worth seeing.

“…… Among the photographers I have introduced, Chen Xing from China, Kintaro Yamazaki from the island country, and Crisqiang Bauer from Italy are the most popular. It's a pity that the Italians were eliminated at the beginning, and now it has always been the Chinese and the islanders competing for the best newcomer award. ”

"And who gets the award?" The guide shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, the secret should be revealed when we wait for the end, there are no more days, right?" Well, once we're in the show, we can start with European countries and end up with Asian photographers......" Hedwig said, "They all know you. ”

"yes, it seems that this award is still unstable." After buying tickets and entering the exhibition hall, the two did not stay in the periphery for long, and Chen Xing directly took Hedwig to the Asian exhibition area.

More than half of them are here. This year, the two most famous photographers in this exhibition hall are here, in addition to Central Asia, West Asia works are also very good, photographers from West Asia coincidentally took pictures of war-themed works, hoping to arouse anti-war sentiment in the viewer.

But it didn't work. Europeans weren't interested in war in the first place, and the pictures were almost as good as they were in Americalika's photo exhibition.

Chen Xing's work was surrounded by clusters. During this time, as long as you pay attention to photography, you have definitely seen news about Chen Xing, or the push of various social software.

Traffic is not synonymous with Huaxia, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can create a celebrity anywhere.

Modern photographers and painters are the same, and technology is not the most important thing, because the people who collect your work are largely unclear whether your work is better or someone else's work.

In today's fast-paced life, how much art foundation can a wealthy person who can spend money to buy your work have?

Chen Xing glanced at Yamazaki Kintaro's work. There are fewer people than themselves. His work is also relatively simple, and there are no themes in the woods that can be delved into.

Chen Xing scanned the QR code behind him and entered the website of this Arles Photo Festival, and saw that the number of votes and ratings of his audience were much higher than others, so he was relieved.

In order to improve the viewing mood of tourists, the guide just now did not say that Chen Xing's current evaluation is better than that of the islanders.

He took Hedwig up close to his work and looked at it for a while. Hedwig looked very closely.

Chen Xing didn't feel wrong before, she was really learning Chen Xing's color use skills, and Hedwig found that Chen Xing's use of color and emotional atmosphere were too good early on.

Although there are not many colors to express in this photo, the mood of the picture is still very full. After twenty minutes, Chen Xing had just squeezed out, and several people walked up to him.

"Hello, are you Mr. Chen Xing?" The man spoke in Mandarin, but in an odd tone, somewhat like ...... There is an ancient saying in China, called Xixi material, for Junjie.

Islanders? Chen Xing nodded slightly, looked at his face, and a name rang in his heart.

It's you! Kintaro Yamazaki! His appearance is ordinary, less than 1.7 meters tall, with a broken hairstyle, and he is almost the same as in the photo.

"Mr. Yamazaki?"

"Hey, you just call me Kintaro, I've been waiting for you here for a long time, today I finally got my wish, I admire Chinese culture, and I also like the interpretation of Chinese culture in your photos, can we talk?" Hedwig didn't understand what they were saying, but she recognized the man.

She only saw the photo of Kintaro Yamazaki ten minutes ago, and after knowing that it was Chen Xing's biggest opponent in this photo exhibition, she wrote it down.

I didn't expect to meet me as soon as I walked out of the crowd and before I left this exhibition hall. Chen Xing smiled and said, "There is no problem. Although he doesn't like island men very much, Chen Xing still does a good job of dealing with people.

The exhibition time of the photography festival will soon come to an end, and his fame may rise again in the next period of time due to the exhibition of "Buddha's Light", and now Chen Xing no longer regards the islanders as opponents.

He was just a little curious about what he was looking for himself to do.
