43 Artistic realm

Wei Zuo, the current president of the Huaguo Jade Carving Association, brought his personal Hetian Qingyu carving work "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains".

This jade carving ornament shows the splendid rivers and mountains of the motherland with the expression technique of "a thousand miles away" and precise carving techniques.

The overall ornament, thousands of mountains and ravines compete for the majestic show, the rivers are staggered, the smoke waves are vast, and the momentum is very majestic and magnificent. There are rocky flying springs in the mountains, tiled huts, pine and bamboo, and green willows and red flowers dotted among them.

Between the mountains and streams, rivers and lakes, fishing villages, wild crossings, and long bridges in water pavilions, there are everything, which is dizzying. In the carving of details, rigorous and meticulous, although the characters are as small as beans, but the image is dynamic and vivid.

Thousands of blue waves, fishing boats and boats, rippling in the meantime, the layout alternately adopts far-reaching, lofty, and far-reaching visions, and captures different perspectives to show the victory of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

Wei Zuo's carving work, the overall layout is atmospheric and heroic, and the details are carved realistically and expressively, which makes people unforgettable.

"Lao Jin, what kind of collection have you prepared today? What everyone brought today are all rare fine products, and you can't be the convener who falls behind. Dean Huang asked.

"What I prepared was a Kangxi Doucai Yingluo pattern Benba pot. ”

"This Benba pot is 23.2cm high, 5cm in diameter, and 9.1cm in diameter. ”

"The shape of the Benba pot imitates the form of the Tibetan silver Benba pot, the shape is slightly like a tower, the mouth and the flow have covers, novel and unique. The pot has a straight mouth, a curved flow, a round belly, a bowl-shaped support underneath, a circled foot, and the soles of the feet are skimmed outward. The whole body is bounded by a white milk nail pattern, and the decoration is divided into different units. The lotus petal pattern, Ruyi cloud pattern, fire cloud pattern, etc., are painted with bucket colors, and the belly animal face pattern is the theme pattern. ”

"The appearance of religious themes on the porcelain of the imperial kiln of the Qing Dynasty is a reflection of the state's religious policy at that time, which not only enabled the Tibetan cultural style to spread in the Qing court, but also promoted the cultural exchanges between the Han, Tibetan, Manchu and Mongolian upper classes. The Benpa pot was a sacrificial object in the monasteries of the Tibetan region, and the porcelain Benpa pot fired in the imperial kiln factory of the Qing Dynasty was a gift from the Qing emperor to religious leaders in Tibetan Province, Qinghai and other places. This Doucai Yingluo pattern Benba pot perfectly combines the traditional Tibetan utensils with the shape and ornamentation of the Han people's long-standing ceramic firing process, and is a historical witness to the cultural exchange of multiple ethnic groups in the Qing Dynasty. ”

"How's it going? Kim asked with a smile.

"Yes, there is a shortage of this Tibetan-style porcelain in the Forbidden City, so you can consider donating it. ”

"I decided, no matter how good things are in the future, I won't call you Lao Huang anymore, you are not popular. ”

After a few words of bickering with Dean Huang, Jin Guangren said: "Today's foreplay has been sung, and now we will start today's big play." Before the flying national treasure is brought out, let me open your eyes. ”

"Feiyang took down the three jade carvings you were wearing to show them and let them open their eyes. ”

"I've been red-eyed for a long time. Feiyang said that you carried such an eye-catching object with you, if it weren't for the appreciation of treasures one after another, I would have asked for it, so take it off quickly. Li Guangde, honorary president of the Huaguo Jade Carving Association, said.

"Okay, I'll take it down right away for everyone to enjoy. ”

The three jade carvings were placed on the three tables, and Li Guangde, Wei Zuo, and Qin Wenguang stepped forward to watch first.

"The ultimate texture I have never seen before! The whole body is completely transparent, completely flawless, delicate and almost as mutton fat, fluorescent, and moisturized, and it is even better than the top dragon stone species I have ever admired. Unparalleled material!" Qin Wenguang, president of the Jewelry and Jade Association, exclaimed.

Anyone can feel the unique temperament contained in it, this carving is really only natural can be described, without the slightest ingenuity, every zodiac animal has a unique charm, this charm is really not a great master can not do, both form and spirit are not enough to describe, and the design is ingenious, the original messy color has become the biggest highlight. This is a carving masterpiece that surpasses all predecessors!" Li Guangde, honorary president of the Jade Carving Association, exclaimed.

"I thought that the works of the grandmaster who had both form and spirit and could enter the gods were already the ultimate in jade carving, but when I saw this statue of Guanyin of Bibo Lotus Terrace, I knew that the original legendary great master's works really existed, and it turned out that the carving could really convey the spirits!" said Wei Zuo, the current president of the Jade Carving Association.

When the three of them reluctantly put down the jade carving in their hands, the others hurriedly rushed forward to watch.

After everyone finished appreciating it, Dean Huang Qun said solemnly: "Today is a day to witness history, and all of us present today will be remembered by history!"

"The material of these three jadeite carvings has never been seen before, and it is incomparably gorgeous, but what is more precious and important than this is the art of carving. The carving art reflected by the three jadeite carvings has reached the extreme of carving, which is not only the highest in the history of the country, but also the first in the history of the world, and I think no one can refute it in the face of the facts. ”

"In this day of witnessing history, we need to innovate academically, and we need to rename. One is to name the name of this jadeite material, and the other is to rename the division of the carving art realm. ”

"Lao Huang is right, I am very honored to participate in this treasure appreciation meeting today. I believe that today's treasure appreciation society will be comparable to the Lanting Poetry Society in the history in the future. With these three carving artifacts, our grand event today will surely be remembered by history. Yu Wenhong, a famous collector and expert master, was very excited at this time.

The other old men were also very excited, each speaking and expressing their own thoughts, and arguing from time to time, making a fuss and not giving in to each other.

"Don't argue, you should listen to the thoughts of the parties first. Do you know who carved these three carvings?" asked Kim Kwang-in.

"By the way, Feiyang, you haven't told us yet, which great master carved these three carvings?" asked Li Guangde.

"Are you really a carpenter who doesn't know Lu Ban, who plays with a big knife and doesn't know Guan Gong, and you who are engaged in carving don't even know the current great master?" Jin Guangren sneered.

"Do you actually know this great grandmaster? Lao Jin, you are so inauthentic, you didn't tell us in advance about such an important matter, you quickly tell us who this great grandmaster is?" asked Li Guangde.

"Actually, you also know this great grandmaster, you have eyes and don't know gold and jade, you can't guess such an obvious thing, no wonder you are still a master now, you can't become a grandmaster?" Jin Guangren struck.

"I know it too, it can't be Feiyang's own carving, right?"

"It seems that you still have a bit of brains, and you are not completely stupid, these three carvings are all carved by Feiyang himself. Don't think that young people can't compare to old guys. Are you surprised?"

"Of course I was surprised, this is unbelievable, who would have thought that a young man in his twenties would become a great master in the carving world, or a great master of carving that has not appeared since ancient times. ”

Not only Li Guangde was shocked, but others were also very shocked. No one would have thought that Yun Feiyang had reached such a high carving realm at such a young age, and it was also a carving great master realm that had never been seen since ancient times.

"I didn't expect these three carvings to be carved by Feiyang himself, no wonder we have never seen such carving skills before. Who would have thought that a young man in his twenties would achieve such an artistic achievement, and no one would believe it if he didn't see it with his own eyes. Wei Zuo also sighed.

"These three carvings are all carved by Feiyang yourself, so the one who knows these three carvings best is Feiyang himself, what do you think is the best name for the texture of this jadeite?" asked Dean Huang Qun.

"What do you think of the name 'Dragon Pupil'? Literally means the pupil of the dragon. Yun Feiyang suggested.

"I think it's good, the eyes are the essence of the dragon, mysterious, warm, and undesecrated, and the pupil is the most quintessential point, extremely cherished, not sought in the world. The name of the dragon pupil is very good. Huang Qun agreed first.

"I think it's good, there's no better name. Kim Kwang-in also agreed.

Others chimed in.

"Okay, then we will determine that the jadeite of this texture is named the dragon pupil species. Huang Qun made the final decision.

"Feiyang, how do you understand the division of the realm of carving art?" Wei Zuo asked.

"I think it should be divided into five realms, namely: ordinary, boutique, subtle, spiritual, and expressive. Ordinary refers to the beginning of the form, fine refers to the vivid form, subtle refers to the depiction of the subtlety, the initial charm, into the spirit refers to the charm of the round, expressive refers to the charm overflowing, through the hearts of the people. In my opinion, other arts can also be divided into these five realms, such as calligraphy and painting. ”

"The works of the first three realms, ordinary people may not be able to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages, but the works of the last two realms, ordinary people can definitely feel the charm of art, because these two artistic realms go directly to the spiritual level. Yun Feiyang described in detail his understanding of the artistic realm.
