Chapter 749 Lost the suspense
Not only people in the painting industry, but also those Chinese painting enthusiasts and collectors were surprised to hear An Yi's Chinese painting works that appeared in the documentary!
As a young Chinese painting collector, Xie Xuehai has of course very profound research on Chinese painting. But then again, young painting collectors should be more interested in Western painting, but Xie Xuehai is obsessed with Chinese painting. He believes that the artistic charm and profound background contained in Chinese painting are not comparable to Western paintings. Although in terms of visual impact, Chinese painting does not seem to be as good as Western paintings.
Because An Yi's paintings are mostly impressive with the perfect use of colors and the strong visual impact, the suffocating beauty that comes to her face can always domineeringly capture the "hearts" of the admirers in an instant, so many people always subconsciously ignore her attainments in Chinese painting.
But this time, the Chinese paintings of An Yi inadvertently exhibited in the documentary are so high and powerful that they are simply incredible!
Xie Xuehai's original impression of Anyi was that she was a super genius painter, and then her paintings were priceless, even if the price of her works was inflated.
No matter how high An Yi's painting level is, since she is still alive, the price of her artistic paintings is definitely not comparable to those masters who have passed away. However, the price of her artistic paintings is only higher than that of the paintings of these top contemporary painters.
This is very abnormal to collectors like Xie Xuehai. Although it is not "artistic" to simply use the value of an artistic painting to measure the social status of a painter, sometimes, in the eyes of many collectors, the truth of the matter is so simple.
The higher the price of An Yi's works, the more it leads to many collectors who want to collect her paintings. No matter what, An Yi's paintings are indeed so beautiful that they are fascinating.
Xie Xuehai could not say against his conscience that he did not want to collect An Yi's artistic paintings, but he had self-knowledge. With his financial resources, even if he collected an excellent work of An Yi, he might feel heartbroken, let alone those masterpieces that can be famous throughout the ages. Perhaps only those true descendants of the chaebol can pay for them without changing their faces and unimaginable prices for them.
Fortunately, he could give himself psychological comfort and tell himself that his works he prefers to collect are Chinese paintings, and he is not very fed by An Yi's works that have already become a unique style.
And this time, when Xie Xuehai heard that An Yi was going to participate in the "Wang Mojie Chinese Painting Masters Competition", he was full of expectations, especially at the same time, there were also crazy painters like Zhang Kuangzhi who spoke loudly on his lips, which really attracted a lot of attention.
Xie Xuehai also admired Zhang Kuangzhi's Chinese paintings. This person has enough capital for being arrogant, because his paintings are full of free and unruly artistic conception and are very good at writing cursive works. People who like works of his style will like them very much, so Zhang Kuangzhi is not worried about the sales of his artistic paintings at all.
Now, Zhang Kuangzhi is even more famous. He seems to be holding back his energy and preparing for this game recently, so his provocative remarks have been a little less. In fact, many people are more looking forward to An Yi responding to this guy who danced happily, but what is a little disappointing is that An Yi is still only focusing on herself, rather than showing his presence by criticizing others.
In fact, many people are full of affection for An Yi because of her low-keyness, and at the same time they naturally stand on her side.
I have to say that Zhang Kuangzhi, an aggressive guy who likes to talk big, is not very popular. It can only be said that he has indeed increased his fame a lot.
Xie Xuehai originally thought that the showdown between An Yi and Zhang Kuangzhi would become the biggest highlight of this competition. Until he saw An Yi's Chinese paintings in the documentary, he was shocked...
Then he couldn't help but post a scarf, saying that if the Chinese paintings that An Yi casually painted were all of this level, then Zhang Kuangzhi had no chance of winning, because the latter wanted to draw an artistic painting of this level, even if he tried his best, he might not be able to draw it!
When he sent it out, he felt a little regretful, and he felt that he was too impulsive. It was not wise to offend a famous painter rashly.
However, what Xie Xuehai never expected was that his scarf didn't make any waves, just because almost all those who have studied Chinese painting made such a judgment!
Originally, some people were full of imagination about Zhang Kuangzhi, but now, except for some people who don’t understand Chinese painting, most experts suddenly felt boring. A certain result has completely lost the suspense...
After discovering this, Xie Xuehai couldn't help but laugh at himself. He had dared to underestimate An Yi's strength in Chinese painting before. When he saw that many people in the scarf asked him how he reached such a conclusion, he couldn't help but briefly spread the subjects about which aspects should be used to distinguish the quality of a Chinese painting from or even the authenticity of a Chinese painting.
The first aspect is naturally the use of ink in thick, light, dry and wet, abbreviated as "ink". In "Records of Famous Paintings in All Dynasties" by Zhang Yanyuan of the Tang Dynasty, he mentioned: "Ink is used and five colors are used." However, there is no fixed statement about these five colors, either burnt, heavy, light and light, or thick, light and dry, wet and black. On this basis, white space is added to form a "six colors".
But no matter what, this passage simply describes a truth, that is, a qualified painting can see obvious levels of ink itself.
Xie Xuehai even gave two examples and directly took out an Chinese painting by An Yi, compared it with another unknown painter's Chinese painting. He said: "Then from the circle I painted, the painting on the left can be clearly counted with five or six ink colors. The largest circle can clearly feel the gradient, and the other parts can also feel the dryness and wetness when using ink, plus the blank space in between, which is in line with the above six colors. Just by this place, you can see Master An Yi's profound Chinese painting strength. On the other hand, it is on the right, why
Did I only draw one circle? Because in this circle, we can see three colors, and outside this circle, it is not the case. It has no way of using ink color, gradual dyeing, and thickness. Therefore, compared with the two strokes, the value of the painting on the right is definitely far inferior to the one on the left. Because just using ink alone can be said to be absolutely unable to master it without more than ten years or even decades of experience. Master An Yi has definitely worked hard on Chinese paintings. In our daily life, we can use this point to guess the quality of a painting, and even the authenticity of a painting."
