345. Life
Forty-six years old.
The gallery will be located at 244, 245, 246, 247 Farriland Street in Firth, and on the opening day, new paintings will be unveiled.
Hervin received the invitation.
The gallery is not a commercial gallery, and the 46-year-old painter Hola is not short of money, and now she is free to squander a large amount of money to buy a large area for citizens to see her paintings.
However, even though the exhibition itself is not for profit, many people want to attend, because for some young artists, it is very exciting to see Hora's new work for the first time.
There are also many people who come here simply because of her status in the painting world, either to make friends with the master, or simply to admire her work, and some just to take the opportunity to talk to others about business.
Hervin walked into the exhibition hall and wandered aimlessly.
In the most prominent position of the three main museums are three paintings, two of which are her 27-year-old work "The Death of a Clown" and her 40-year-old work "I".
But there's another one that's covered with a cloth, and it's clear that this will be the highlight of the night.
However, in addition to this painting, which has not yet been revealed, there are still many new works by Hora in the exhibition hall.
Herwin slowly walked to the annex.
The paintings hanging here are completely different from the style of other places.
The middle-aged man who was introducing the work noticed Hewen's arrival, whispered sorry to the couple in front of him, and then walked in the direction of Hewen.
Hervin looked at the work on the wall and said:
"Although your painting is much gentler than hers, but at this time, it has also revealed your ability, if you have been in precipitation for two years, maybe the world will surprise you. ”
Haight smiled implicitly:
"It's over. ”
This time he accepted Herwen's boasting, because he knew better than anyone in this world that Herwin was telling the truth.
Hervin walked over to a painting.
The painting shows a girl sitting on a bed with melancholy eyes, she is lonely holding a teddy bear, the bedroom door is pushed open a crack, and a curious boy is looking at the girl.
Herwin asked:
"Can I take this?"
Haight was stunned, but immediately reacted:
"Of course, I'll have someone put this up later. ”
Hewen waved his hand:
"No, I'll just take it now. ”
With that, Hewen reached out and took the painting off the wall.
The people around looked at this side with surprised eyes, as if they didn't understand why this person could just take the painting away, and even one person turned his head to look at the painting in front of him with hesitant eyes, wondering if he could also take a copy.
Hewen continued to talk to Haight with the painting in this way:
"How are you doing now?"
Haight said with some embarrassment:
"It's good, we're happy, she had some difficulties, but she got over it. ”
Hewen nodded:
"I'm going to the main hall first, she's going to start the unveiling. ”
After saying that, Hewen walked to the main hall, and the painting in his hand didn't know when it was gone.
Hora was standing in front of the covered picture, and the people from the various exhibition halls were slowly gathering here.
She looked around at the people below:
"First of all, I would like to thank all of you for coming to my opening ceremony.
"Then, let's look at the paintings. ”
Hola lifts the curtain.
To everyone's surprise, the work behind the curtain is not a boundary challenge, nor is it as shocking as Hara's previous works.
It's just a very ordinary landscape painting.
Golden wheat field, people walking in twos and threes, red farm, red-haired woman lying on a chair looking up at the sky, middle-aged man wearing glasses reading newspaper.
That's all for this painting.
Hola says:
"At the same time, I would like to announce that from now on, I will be much slower in my own creation, and I will spend more time enjoying life and spending time with my family. ”
The crowd was in an uproar.
Hara bowed slightly to the crowd and walked towards the back of the crowd.
Everyone's eyes also moved with her figure, and finally to a man about thirty years old.
She said:
"Shall we talk?"
Herwin nodded.
The two walked out of the exhibition hall ignoring the gazes of others.
Hara asked:
"Actually, I guessed that it was you, but it wasn't until today that I confirmed that, although my sensual instinct refused to recognize this fact, I still broke through the confinement by reason. ”
Hervin says:
"Congratulations. ”
Hola says:
"After all, you don't get old, although everyone ignores this fact, but I still find out more or less, but seriously, you even let me struggle with the so-called truth in those years?
Hervin smiled:
"It's your choice. ”
Hara asked:
"So because of whom? me or you. ”
Hervin says:
"You. ”
Herwin continued
"Do you know the brain in a vat? If you put a person's brain in a glass jar and send signals to make their brain think they live in a real world, how do you escape?
"Of course, it doesn't matter how you escape, the important thing is that if this world composed of false signals can completely simulate the operation of a region of the real universe without any difference, then is there a difference between the life in the brain in the jar and the life outside?"
Hola replied:
"For Alice, it doesn't make any difference. ”
Hervin did not express his opinion:
"Life is like this, we never know if we are dreaming until the moment we wake up, but the vast majority of people will never be awake in their lifetime. ”
Hola said curiously:
"Have you ever dreamed too?"
Hewen smiled:
"Yes, it was a long dream, and I sank into it for a while, but in the end, I realized that it was everyone's nightmare. ”
Hola asked:
"So how do you deal with the nightmare. ”
Hervin smiled:
"I shredded it. ”
Hola stomped on the ground with her foot:
"Is it a nightmare or a sweet dream. ”
Hervin says:
"No, if you insist that it's a dream, then it's just a dream, but to be honest, I think, this is the reality, Alice's reality. ”
Hola said for the second time:
"Thank you. ”
Hervin says:
"Everything starts because of you, everything ends because of you, and you don't need to thank anyone. ”
Herwin turned to leave:
"If there's anything to be thankful for, then be thankful for life itself, it's your life, it's all about you, get on with it. ”
Hara silently watched his back disappear.
