Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 161, Report Exhibition, Help Me Take a Look

Academy of Art Gallery.

Students entered the venue with their works one after another, and people who came to help set up the exhibition carried various items in and out, making the venue lively again.

Jiang Zhe arrived at the art museum and saw two students carrying display boards and placing them in the corridor of the exhibition hall.

The title printed on the display board is: Joint Exhibition of Calligraphy and Painting by College Students - Report Exhibition of Our School's Participating Works.

When he was browsing the preface, he heard Teacher Hu's voice. He turned around and saw Teacher Hu coming to the exhibition hall with the class monitor.

He admired the monitor very much. Although his works were not exhibited, he kept busy with the class.

When Teacher Hu saw Jiang Zhe, he immediately asked, "Jiang Zhe, when will your work be delivered?"

She and Teacher Qin went to Jiang Zhe's studio. After selecting the works for the exhibition, Jiang Zhe had already sent the works to be framed.

Jiang Zhe replied: "The gallery has sent a car to deliver it, and it should be here soon." Wang Zhen helped Jiang Zhe frame the two oil portraits and was responsible for the transportation.

"Go and wait at the school gate. When a vehicle comes in, tell the gatekeeper."

"Okay." Jiang Zhe agreed and walked out of the venue, just in time to see Chen Yan walking towards him.

Chen Yan quickly ran to Jiang Zhe's side and asked, "Have you finished arranging your work?"

Jiang Zhe said, "No, I'm going to wait for the gallery car at the school gate."

"I'll go with you." Chen Yan took Jiang Zhe's arm and walked towards the school gate together.

……

Teacher Hu and the class monitor walked to the second floor of the exhibition hall and saw Fu Min standing next to her own work.

Fu Min saw Teacher Hu and the other teacher at the same time and waved to them hurriedly.

Teacher Hu walked closer to Fu Min and looked at the effect of the work after mounting.

Fu Min used the figure sketching homework as a reference to further create this bust portrait with gouache.

Teacher Hu raised his eyes and noticed Fu Min's expectant gaze.

"Yes, don't worry, it's no problem. We have two works from your class and Jiang Zhe selected, which is good enough."

The squad leader was also there to encourage Fu Min.

Originally, three people in the class had their works selected. However, Mou Xing's work was eliminated in the final round of school selection and lost the qualification to participate in the school exhibition.

Teacher Hu looked around the exhibition hall on the second floor. Students from various majors were waiting with their works, waiting for the teacher who would arrange the order of the exhibition to arrive.

……

Jiang Zhe and his friend had just walked to the school gate when they received a call from Wang Zhen.

She called Jiang Zhe in advance to make preparations, and the vehicle would arrive at the school gate soon.

Jiang Zhe and Chen Yan stood outside the school gate, watching the vehicles coming and going.

Soon, a silver-gray van slowed down and approached the school gate.

Jiang Zhe saw Wang Zhen sitting in the passenger seat and waving at him. He waved back and ran to explain to the guard.

The railing at the school gate rose, and the car stopped again after entering the gate. Wang Zhen leaned out of the car window and said to Jiang Zhe, "Get in the car, I'll take you there."

While Chen Yan and Wang Zhen were greeting each other, Jiang Zhe opened the car door and saw two packaged works placed in the back row, which seemed a bit crowded.

After he and Chen Yan got in the car, they could barely sit down.

The car started and slowly drove towards the art gallery.

Jiang Zhe asked, "Manager Wang, why did you come to deliver the painting in person?"

Wang Zhen turned around and said to Jiang Zhe, "Your two paintings will be more beautiful after being framed. I want to see how they look when hung in an art gallery. The one that won't be exhibited can be put on display in my gallery first. If I meet a good seller, I will help you sell it."

Although your oil painting has not appeared in the market yet, you can give it a try. Don't worry, as long as it is a formal work, the price will not be less than 20,000. "

Jiang Zhe knew why Wang Zhen was so active.

She sent the information of her three watercolor paintings to the United States, and one of them was sold very quickly. In Wang Zhen's words, this work did not have the bonus of winning awards, but the sales were still very smooth.

The painting was sold for $6000, and Jiang Zhe received less than yuan, so he didn't feel anything about it.

Wang Zhen was very excited. He had already raised the price of Jiang Zhe's works and became more active in promoting his works.

After seeing two oil portraits of Jiang Zhe, she suggested putting one of them on display in the gallery.

When Jiang Zhe heard Wang Zhen mention this matter again, he agreed.

The van stopped, and Jiang Zhe and others got out and carried the slightly smaller oil painting out of the car.

The painting, including the frame, measures 130×100cm, and with the outer packaging, it looks even bigger.

Wang Zhen suggested waiting until the goods were moved to the booth before reopening the packaging, and Jiang Zhe also felt that this was safer.

The driver stayed in the car, and Wang Zhen and Chen Yan helped Jiang Zhe transport the paintings to the exhibition hall on the second floor.

Teacher Hu and the other two were chatting when they saw Jiang Zhe carrying a work that was nearly as tall as a person out of the elevator, and they hurried over to help.

Jiang Zhe placed his work next to Fu Min's.

Wang Zhen greeted Teacher Hu and others and helped Jiang Zhe unpack his work.

The packaging technique is extremely professional and you can remove the package completely by unbuttoning a few buttons.

After the packaging was removed, several people immediately saw the full picture of the work.

A dancer dances on the floor, with some rays of sunlight shining on her. The background is the white walls and mirrors of the dance studio.

The painting is bright and the characters are lifelike. The canvas painting is surrounded by a large wooden frame. The frame has simple honeysuckle relief and imitation gilt decoration, which is both modern and in line with the style of the oil painting. The painting and the frame complement each other.

The people watching were instantly attracted by the visual effects and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Teacher Hu said as she looked at it: "It looked good in the studio, and it looks even better now." She took two steps back and bumped into the people who had just been attracted. There were also a few people who wanted to get closer to observe the details of the face.

Many people who study painting know various oil painting techniques, but learning the techniques does not necessarily mean that they can create beauty.

For those who study oil painting, the sense of reality that Jiang Zhe displays in his paintings is so shocking that they can't help but get closer to see how he paints.

Jiang Zhe was also very satisfied with the effect of installing the frame.

Wang Zhen said, "Where should we hang the works?"

Teacher Hu responded: "Don't worry, the school teacher will arrange the order."

Wang Zhen didn't rush to leave, but looked around the exhibition hall and suggested to Jiang Zhe: "I want to see other works."

Jiang Zhe knew what she meant: "Okay, if you see anyone with potential, I'll introduce them to you."

The two people walked along the aisle, observing the student works that had been submitted.

The exhibition hall is filled with students from different majors and grades and their works.

Whenever Jiang Zhe meets someone he knows or a classmate he has met, he will greet them politely.

Wang Zhen and Jiang Zhe walked side by side. He just glanced at most of the works and did not let Jiang Zhe introduce the authors.

While watching, Jiang Zhe accidentally opened the system and saw a silent prompt that he was gaining honor points...

He looked at the location of his work, and there were quite a few people there. He guessed that these honor points should be contributed by those who saw his work.

He and Wang Zhen walked past the watercolor booth and saw several students unfolding hanging scrolls in the booth in front. They realized that this was where the students majoring in Chinese painting gathered.

There are many forms of mounting Chinese paintings, the most common of which are hanging scrolls and mirrors.

Jiang Zhe saw Lan Xin in the crowd. She was adjusting a scroll hanging on the wall with a classmate.

He motioned to Wang Zhen to go over and take a look.

Lan Xin adjusted the hanging scroll and turned back to her classmates, only to see Jiang Zhe and a woman in a suit and skirt admiring her work.

"Jiang Zhe, you are here. Help me look at the painting."
