Arthur informed Ren He of the interview time. It seems that he finally convinced the professor. In fact, there are not many students who can afford to donate so much money in a university. When a university is short of money, any university will be short of money as long as it has ambition.
It's a huge bottomless hole to spend money on building research laboratories and academic research.
Only with academic status can we speak hard enough and have a more international sense of existence. Otherwise, when it comes to achievements, Harvard, Yale and Stanford are all good students. They can only choose from the rest of the students.
The next afternoon, Ren he arrived at Columbia University on time. Arthur took him to the building of the Academy of fine arts. They didn't stop until they reached the innermost office. Ren he saw the words "Dean's office" written on the door.
Arthur knocks on the door and goes in. Ren he follows him and looks at the messy office in front of him. There are traces of oil paint everywhere. There is a strong smell of paint in the room. There are scattered canvases on the ground
Is this an office or a studio? It's normal for Ren He to think that some artists don't repair their space, but it's still a bit uncomfortable to be in such a chaotic place.
He picked up several pieces of clothes scattered on the ground and hung them on the easel. He also put the canvas scattered on the ground together. Only then did an old man with messy hair come out of the inner room.
The old man just saw that his office seemed more tidy. Instead of saying thank you to Ren He, he got angry: "you paid 1.2 million dollars to learn painting, not to clean me up!" The old man walked over and threw the clothes on the easel back to the ground: "how can I hang dirty clothes on the easel?"
Ren he suddenly realized that in what he was saying, he emphasized the word dirty. When he looked at the easel, he couldn't get there
But he suddenly felt that the old man was still very interesting. If he was a child, he might think that the old man was a bully. But he is not a real child only 16 years old. Ren He has now learned to respect art.
Before he came here, he also searched the Internet about the school of fine arts of Columbia University. The ranking was not very high, but he had an old painter with high reputation. He once had an oil painting for his ex-wife, which was auctioned for $12.96 million. He was one of the top ten "most expensive painters in the world", and also the dean and doctoral supervisor of the school of fine arts of Columbia University.
Ren he admires such a person, so he won't pay too much attention to what the other party says.
There is also an interesting phenomenon in the art world. It's only when the painters die that their paintings begin to be valuable
For example, when Richard, an old artist, was still alive, his works could be sold at a high price, which was actually very difficult.
Of course, there are several such artists in China. In 2015, Cui ruzhuo, a Chinese painter, made a sale for HK $236 million, setting a new record for individual artists.
Richard took out a piece of paper and a pencil from the mess behind him and handed it to Ren He: "draw, let me see why you want to learn to draw."
Arthur frowned. The old Dean didn't want to drive Ren He away with words, did he? But I can't help it if I really want to drive him away. The previous oral agreement between them is that if Ren He has some painting skills, Richard will keep him, otherwise he will go to other colleges.
Arthur thought that it would be OK. If Ren he could not pass the exam, he would have to go to other colleges, such as economics? finance? My teacher is not picky about food
Ren He sat in front of the easel with his pencil and drawing paper and started to write without ink. The old Dean looked at him and picked his eyebrows. Before, he thought Ren He might be a rich second generation. Now, he looks like he has a little bit of background, but it's hard to say. He still has to wait until he finishes painting.
As a result, looking at Ren He's very professional graffiti on the drawing paper with a brush, the old Dean felt that Ren He was still like that at first, but he didn't know what he was going to draw after a long time!
Now we can only see that Ren He's basic skills are very solid. In the most important foundation of sketch, line is the most important thing. The more simple it is, the more basic it is. The common mistakes that students are prone to make are too messy, too heavy headed, too rigid and too heavy painted, which can't be seen here.
Even the old Dean thought that his drawing lines should be like this.
But the basic skills of Ming Ming are so good, but there is no structure. The whole painting is still in a mess and makes people upset. It's just like there's something in my heart, which is disgusting.
Is this provocation? The old Dean looked at it calmly. Was it because he despised the young man at the beginning, so the other side deliberately disgusted himself?
It's not necessary. Painting is for yourself. It's another window to the human soul and one of the ways to express emotions. It's not worth the loss to give up one's artistic cultivation in order to annoy others. Some artists and geniuses have a big temper, but the old Dean doesn't agree with Ren he's practice, because he's destroying a painting!
But slowly, before Arthur could see anything, the old Dean could see some clues... When Ren He began to deal with the lines again, he suddenly found that the chaotic scene in the painting was a bit like his own office? This kind of gradually clear painting method is not unknown to him, but it is the first time that he has seen people layout so scribbled, and he can pick the objects one by one from inside. This is a good example! And as like as two peas in the picture, the dirty clothes are still on the original ground. It can be said that Ren He is trying to duplicate the first sight he saw when he came in with his powerful memory. Many students even if the technology has been very good, but when drawing a sketch, they still need to have a reference object in front of them. For example, some models spend a whole day standing, which is very hard. But it seems that Ren He doesn't need any reference. He can remember everything just by memory... The old president also found this, but from this point of view, Ren He is a rare talent painter! But in this painting, it's not just a simple reproduction of the scene. Arthur can't understand it, but old President Richard knows it all. This young man has been using the most complex lines for so long. In fact, it's just for one thing that makes this painting disgusting! In fact, vision can completely convey a kind of uncomfortable feeling that makes people feel uncomfortable when they see it. A very simple example is fear of denseness. And this painting, the old Dean can recognize this is his office at a glance. He has been in the office for six or seven years. Before, he never thought the room was in chaos. It was very comfortable! As a result, after looking at the painting, he can't stand the messy scene... NIMA, he can't say whether this skill is a talent or a thoroughly bad taste. The old president wants to clean up his office now! Ren hele, this is the master painting skills. It can make people feel good and disgusting. This is the master painting skills! It's a joke with this old man. The old Dean was silent for two seconds: "you go out!" What does it mean to go out? Arthur thought that this was about to rearrange Ren He's college. As a result, he heard the old Dean say, "from tomorrow on, you can draw with me. You don't have to go to other people's classes." Although the painting is so disgusting in his mind now, the old Dean knows exactly what level it needs to be. It's a genius Ten thousand rewards plus more
