Soul Painter

ASX is just a clown.

Their opinions can only entertain the masses.

Real artists and collectors never read their sensational articles.

Even if the chief artist of ASX once again made a fool of himself because of Gao Fan's art exhibition, showing his monkey butt, not many people are willing to pay attention to them.

In Bostno, and even in the wider art circle, the focus at the moment is already on Govan’s magical "Mask" painting exhibition. In the next two weeks, with art critics and collectors, they will gradually get rid of the demonic paintings. Influence, you can face all the mask paintings - because their sanity has been harvested from beginning to end.

Comments on GAO's painting skills flooded in.

The most representative of them is Lindsay Pollock, editor-in-chief of "Art in America".

As the most authoritative art magazine in the beautiful country, "Art in America" ​​is headquartered in New York, but its vision is all over the beautiful country. The "Mask" solo exhibition held in Boston attracted the attention of the editor-in-chief Note that one week after visiting the solo exhibition, she used two magazines full of 4,500 words to describe what this solo exhibition means.

The title of the report is "GAO should be grateful for being born in this era, and our era should also be grateful for the birth of GAO."

These two lines of huge bold characters occupy the first color cover after the advertisement in the February issue of the entire magazine, juxtaposed across pages, extremely eye-catching.

Inside the article, Lindsay Pollock said:

"...If GAO was born 100 years ago, the great works made by his superb demonic painting skills must be regarded as witchcraft, then what awaits him is only the stake and the stigma passed down to future generations, so he should be thankful for himself Born a hundred years later today.

... If there are no painters like GAO in our era, then we still cannot see clearly the lofty artistic sails, where is its future, three-dimensional, abstract or postmodernism? These answers were once correct, but now we have more correct answers, so we should be grateful that GAO was born in our time.

...the 'pollock' in my name comes from the great Jackson Pollock, the master of abstract expressionist painting, who helped modern American painting to break away from European standards, and was the first contributor to the establishment of international leadership in American painting, as a successor I am very honored to introduce the art critic of this name to you, GAO, which helps human painting art get rid of the shackles of the old age.

Since 40,000 years ago, we have painted the world in caves with oils found in the wild, and today we finally have the art of painting that is essentially distinct. "

It can be said that since the third week of the "Mask" solo exhibition and this article by the editor-in-chief of "Art in America", Gao Fan's name has really entered the field of vision of the world's mainstream art circles.

The previous auction in Hong Kong, as well as earlier sporadic reports about Gao Fan, were only superficial. Now, the name GAO is associated with the 'founder of the Demon Sect' and the 'young master'. In the eyes of all museums and collectors.

From the third week of the "Mask" solo exhibition, that is, in early February, the flock of collectors and art consultants made Mrs. Gardner decide to extend the exhibition for another month, but when these collectors, art critics and When an art consultant wants to visit Gao Fan and discuss the true meaning of the Devil School, Gao Fan is often not at the exhibition hall.

Of course, Gao Fan did not return home.

But Lu Zhi returned home first because he felt bored.

Gao Fan and Ana Armas are wandering the streets and alleys of Bostno with his cat, using his 'world' skills, trying to imprint a complete city in his hall of inspiration for the first time.

In the previous week, Ana Armas tried to copy Gao Fan's sixteenth painting, but she got a lot of results. She couldn't understand the mysterious connection between the "Mask" group of paintings, which was harmonious, unified and independent. When she was almost desperate , Gao Fan began to lead her to create the next painting, saying that maybe during the creation process, she could appreciate the true meaning of the second magical technique of the Devil Painting School.

"It should be such a painting." Gao Fan happily described to Anna, "It will depict the entire Bostno, and everyone in this city, no matter men, women, old or young, can see their own shadows in it. This painting The image depicted in the painting is not anyone in Bostno, but everyone in Bostno.”

"With all due respect, Gao, I think this is more similar to an artistic fantasy." Anna mercilessly accused Gao Fan. For her, art is a number, which can be depicted and expressed, but Gao Fan like this Artistic imagination is almost delusional, just like using a symbol to represent all the numbers in the world.

"Nothing can represent everything." Anna repeated, "It's like there is no mathematical formula that can describe all the laws in the world."

"Although I am not good at mathematics, I also know that there is a mathematical symbol that represents infinity." Gao Fan argued.

"Infinity does not mean that there is nothing outside the boundary, but that there is always another boundary outside the boundary." Anna said.

"Anyway, just follow me!" Gao Fan became impatient, he realized that arguing with a genius who is both math and art is asking for trouble, "Hurry up, get on the bike and take me, we will go to Bosno first." Park, then to Trinity Church, then to Hancock Tower."

That’s right, Gao Fan’s mode of transportation is a bicycle. He needs to browse all the scenery of the city. If he meets a person he thinks is representative, he wants to chat with him or her. This is a talent for language. Anna, can help.

So from today, the citizens of Bostno can often see a skinny Jewish girl, riding a bicycle hard, leading another equally skinny man, riding in China Town, North End, Back Bay, and the port Next to Fort Point, in addition, especially the Cambridge (Cambridge) area, where there are two world-renowned universities, Harvard and MIT.

Three days later, Gao Fan fell into extreme self-doubt when facing the Bostno map.

"I never knew Bostno was so big," he said, "Harvard and MIT are here!"

"Bostno is the capital and largest city of Massachusetts, and the largest city in New England in the northeastern United States, with an area of ​​232 square kilometers and a permanent population of more than 600,000." Anna said.

"I suspect that the Invisible Son ate my brain..." Gao Fan muttered, the sequelae of the Command Spell may include road idiots, as well as the lack of concept of the specific city area.

"But we still have to draw~" Gao Fan grabbed Anna's shoulder and said, "Think about it, we have drawn 600,000 people into one person, which is never a miracle in painting!"

Anna looked at Gao Fan calmly, judging whether his mental state was normal.
