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

“In the 1980s and 1990s, due to information asymmetry, some painters went abroad and bought a few foreign painting books, brought them back to copy, and after learning a few tricks, they claimed that they were their own innovations, and even became very successful.

Nowadays, information is exchanged faster and faster, but there are still people doing this kind of thing. I don't feel embarrassed at all." Professor Qin said meaningfully, looking at a work on the exhibition.

After hearing this, Jiang Zhe felt like laughing.

After the group photo, Jiang Zhe and his friends did not participate in other activities, but began to visit the selected works.

There were several friends who visited with us, including He Chi.

After listening to Professor Qin's comments, these people nodded in agreement.

Jiang Zhe looked at the painting that Professor Qin was commenting on.

The style of this painting is clearly imitating Morandi.

The funniest thing is that this is the second work with a similar style in the entire exhibition.

Previously, when Professor Qin saw a work similar to Morandi’s style, he raised some doubts, but was refuted by someone who was looking at the painting.

"Professor Qin, you are wrong. This painting is inspired by Morandi's style and is a high-level gray tone."

Jiang Zhe remembered that the other party's tone should have meant that he thought these people had never seen Morandi's paintings and did not know what high-grade gray was. He meant to give them some scientific knowledge.

Professor Qin and his friends did not argue any further, but simply did not want to talk to that person any further.

After seeing a similar style of painting for the second time, he finally couldn't help it.

Jiang Zhe also felt that it was a bit excessive for a selection at this level to have people imitating other people's styles.

He remembered that before he traveled through time, from 2000 to the following twenty years, it seemed that this Morandi style of painting was very popular in China, and even influenced clothing and film and television.

When some people talk about Morandi, they seem to feel superior to him.

A teacher who visited the museum together said: "Morandi's paintings are both elegant and popular. They have beautiful and gentle colors and concrete shapes. His brushwork is relaxed and gentle, which is very attractive. However, it is not good to imitate them all."

Another teacher said: "His paintings look easy to imitate, but in fact, it is easy to go astray. Some people think that they can achieve results by learning a little bit.

I heard that there is a group of painters who are trying their best to imitate his paintings. To be honest, some of them are really good at it. "

Jiang Zhe listened and pondered.

Morandi's paintings are his way of expression. As a student, it is okay to learn from and imitate others during the learning stage. However, if you are a professional painter, it is a taboo if you cannot get rid of the shadow of others in your painting style.

No matter how well you learn the techniques, if you cannot turn them into your own nourishment and create your own independent style, then the artistic value of your work will be greatly reduced.

Several people continued to watch while chatting.

Soon, I saw Jiang Zhe's work.

Several friends admired Jiang Zhe's paintings together.

Professor Qin said to his friends: "Although this painting has been selected, please give us more suggestions."

One of his friends said: "In the contemporary art circle, realistic painting seems to be marginalized. It seems that once we talk about figurative painting, it is a bit conservative.

I think there is no need to emphasize the history of figurative painting.

As long as it can create beauty, it still has a place in the contemporary art stage.”

A teacher who teaches in a provincial college said: "I have seen Jiang Zhe's paintings several times. Each work is unique. It is not easy to use the perspective of young people to express a comfortable picture.

There are too many smart people in the art world today, and many people like to take shortcuts. It is not easy for Jiang Zhe to stick to his independent and sober thinking and develop his own language form. "

Professor Qin responded with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, I asked you to talk about the problem, why do you only say good things?"

The oldest man said: "When I see young people's paintings, I can feel the vitality. Especially the young people who can stick to realistic painting, which makes me feel that expressing life will never go out of style."

He looked at Jiang Zhe: "Your teacher asked us to talk about the problem, so I will give you a suggestion.

Art reviews are often varied. You need to learn to absorb nutrition in a reasonable way. When someone thinks that a certain art form has been exhausted, you can think about whether you can let go of the burden and create something new.

Many successful painters do this.”

Jiang Zhe hurriedly expressed his gratitude to the old man.

Although others made some suggestions, they were very tactful. Jiang Zhe was very modest in the face of suggestions. However, he understood that many people were reluctant to give some straightforward suggestions. There were many reasons, some of which were to take care of Professor Qin's face, and some of which were because they did not understand his own personality.

After the tour, there were still many people gathered in the hall.

Professor Qin and others planned to have a small gathering with friends.

Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen will also participate.

As they left the gallery, others prepared to join a small gathering.

Jiang Zhe walked to the entrance of the art museum and met several colleagues he had just met. He took the initiative to say hello and say goodbye.

Several of the senior colleagues treated Jiang Zhe very warmly, not at all like they were treating juniors.

Next, when Jiang Zhe said goodbye to several young colleagues, he could see envy in their eyes.

As he was leaving the venue and walking towards the parking lot, he couldn't help but look back at a painter who was a few years older than him.

The painter saw Jiang Zhe looking back and waved again.

Jiang Zhe also responded with a smile.

He looked back because he remembered an incident that happened in the past.

In my previous life, I attended an ordinary school. When I was a junior, I participated in a study exchange, and the person who participated in the exchange seemed to be this young painter.

At that time, the other person was on the podium and I was sitting in the audience.

Unexpectedly, after rebirth, the other party was envious of me.

As the lights come on, people clink glasses in the hotel box.

Wang Zhen invited many colleagues to make the banquet very lively.

After both the host and the guests had a great time, Jiang Zhe and several teachers saw the guests off together.

The few people did not leave the hotel until the last guest got on the car.

Professor Qin and the others got in the car and closed their eyes to rest. They were really tired after a busy day.

Even with Jiang Zhe's physical strength, he felt tired.

After arriving at the hotel, Jiang Zhe waited for a while and received a text message from Sister Liao.

He waited in the hotel lobby for a while and saw the car from yesterday.

After Jiang Zhe got in the car, Sister Liao asked, "You're not drunk, are you?"

"fine."

The driver started the car.

Sister Liao asked: "Are you free tomorrow morning?"

Jiang Zhe thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow morning, several teachers will be resting in the hotel, so they should have time."

Sister Liao said, "Tomorrow, a friend wants to see you."

"What friend?"

"You will know when the time comes."

……

The next morning, Jiang Zhe and Sister Liao came to a teahouse and met Mr. Ning, whom they hadn't seen for a long time.

"Jiang Zhe, congratulations first." President Ning stared at Jiang Zhe.

"Mr. Ning, you haven't changed at all. You still look so good," Jiang Zhe complimented him.

I haven't seen you for a long time and I feel a little strange.
