Treasure Hunt all over the World

Abstract Expressionism, an important school of painting born in the United States in the 1950s, is also considered to be the first school of painting in the United States with international influence.

It expresses emotions in an abstract way, boldly swaying colors, and creating freely.

In abstract expressionist paintings, no specific image can be found, and the content of the painting is pure form and color.

There are two forms of abstract expressionism, one emphasizes power and movement, full of passion; the other is more pure abstraction, giving people a sense of tranquility.

Jackson Pollock, the most outstanding representative of abstract expressionism in the 20th century, one of the founders of American abstract painting, and the pioneer of "action painting".

In 1947, Pollock began to use the "drip painting method" for artistic creation.

He nailed the canvas to the floor or wall, then splashed paint on the canvas at random, allowing it to drip on the canvas, creating the effect of criss-crossing abstract lines.

When he was creating, Pollock did not plan in advance, nor did he have a fixed position. He liked to walk around the canvas at will, drawing complex and indistinguishable nets with disordered lines with repetitive and unconscious movements.

The composition design of this kind of painting has no center, the structure is unrecognizable, and has distinct characteristics of abstract expressionism, so it is called abstract expressionism painting.

Pollock's free-spirited, unrestrained abstract painting style properly embodies the American spirit of opposing bondage and advocating freedom, and also reflects the artist's amazing creativity!

The full-frame composition style and the fact that the work becomes a direct record of the painter's emotionally dominated behavior fully demonstrate the novelty and originality of this painting style.

The fundamental significance of Pollock's paintings is to get rid of all shackles and pursue extreme freedom and openness, which promotes the development of bold creative consciousness.

The 1950s was the peak period of Pollock's artistic career, and he created many famous paintings, which were regarded as classics in the history of art.

These paintings have also won him a great reputation, making him the world's top artist and being admired by countless people in later generations.

However, Pollock's paintings were not recognized and accepted by people at first, and many people could not understand his works at all, and did not understand what those chaotic lines and colors expressed!

With the passage of time, the artistic value and special significance of these paintings were gradually recognized by people, and they began to be enthusiastically sought after, and his works also rose accordingly.

Prices keep soaring.

Today, Pollock's abstract expressionist paintings have become top-notch works of art, and the prices are extremely expensive, and they are hard to find!

The latest transaction record is 200 million US dollars. The painting is "17A" created in 1948, which was acquired by a famous billionaire collector in the United States.

This record-setting transaction was conducted privately. If it is sent to an auction, in a competitive environment, it is likely to fetch a higher price!

At this moment, in front of Ye Tian is a painting of Pollock's peak period, which made him start to fantasize, letting his imagination gallop like a wild horse running wild!

$100 million? $200 million? Or a higher $300 million? Any price is possible!

While letting his imagination fly, Ye Tian was also admiring this top-level artwork, feeling the charm of abstract expressionism art, and experiencing Pollock's unrestrained imagination and creativity.

The first impression of this painting is that it is a mess! The eyes are full of chaotic colors and lines, and there is no reason for it at all, let alone the charm of art.

But after taking a few more glances, Ye Tian gradually discovered the beauty in the chaos, felt the charm of this painting, and felt the amazing imagination.

The screen is full of criss-crossing, boundless lines and colors.

The lines are randomly swayed without any rules to follow. There are only three colors, black, white and red. There is no distinction between primary and secondary. They overlap and overlap throughout the entire canvas.

Although the space displayed by the canvas is limited, only 120*150, the lines and colors in the picture are not restricted.

The visual experience they bring to people seems to continue to extend and sway outward, with no end in sight!

Ye Tian's eyes became brighter and brighter, his eyes were firmly fixed on the painting, and his whole body seemed to have entered a three-dimensional space, roaming in it to his heart's content.

After more than ten seconds, Ye Tian just woke up!

The moment he woke up, he immediately sighed secretly.

"No wonder it is hailed as the most striking new invention in painting space after Analytical Cubism of Picasso and Braque, and it really lives up to its reputation!"

This is the top art work, the value is immeasurable, no doubt!

Ye Tian temporarily stopped appreciating, now is not the time, when this masterpiece of abstract expressionism truly belongs to him, then he can enjoy it and celebrate it!

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian began to look for other relevant information on the surface of the painting, such as the name of the painting, the artist's signature, and the year of creation, etc.

No information was found on the surface of the painting, but in the lower right corner of the back of the canvas, he found what he wanted, a very clear set of text information.

"Pollock, Autumn Colors, No. 20, 1950"

"awesome!"

Ye Tian suddenly clenched his fists, and secretly cheered!

There is no doubt that this painting definitely qualifies as one of Pollock's masterpieces, and it was created at the same time as the famous "Autumn Melody, No. 30".

These powerful text messages will undoubtedly double the value of this painting, and it is not impossible to create a new transaction record for Pollock's works!

Everything is under control, ready to go!

This oil painting must be taken down, absolutely nothing can be lost!

Afterwards, he reluctantly withdrew his perspective gaze, slightly adjusted his breathing and emotions, turned around firmly, and looked at the stall owner behind him with a smile on his face.

“I like this oil painting very much, please make an offer, if the price is right, I am ready to buy it! This is a good decoration!”

A look of joy flashed across the eyes of the stall owner, and he immediately quoted the price.

"That's great! Steven, I didn't expect you to like this "Early Morning on Lake Erie". You have a good eye, and you also know the price of Jack Blair's work. For $25,000, you can take this oil painting away!"

The price is relatively fair, not too much moisture, but Ye Tian still returned a price.

"The painting was too big to fit in the SUV, and to bring it back to New York, I had to take the frame off and re-frame it when I got back to New York.

And the classic frame doesn't match the style of my apartment, I'm going to replace it, it will add a lot of cost, so I offer $22,000, you can think about it

If you can accept it, the transaction can be made now, cash or check, bank transfer are all fine, and you also need to provide a painting tube long enough for me to take this oil painting away! "

The reason why Ye Tian said this was because of considerations.

Pollock's work is too important, too expensive, and has been out of public view for too long, nearly fifty or sixty years! Who knows what story is hidden behind it!

In order to avoid unnecessary troubles and disputes, its discovery process must be made public, and it must be completely cleared of itself!

In this way, even if it was a famous stolen painting, the FBI would not have any excuse to make trouble for him, and he would not lose a cent, at most it would just be a joyous occasion!

Of course, it is extremely unlikely that this is a famous stolen painting, at least Ye Tian has never seen the name of this painting in the catalog of stolen works of art, but there is no harm in being cautious and prepared!

There are so many media reporters, Alabama police officers and FBI agents on the scene, and the stall owners selling oil paintings are also here. This is undoubtedly the best occasion for discovery!

As long as I create this famous painting here, the news will immediately spread throughout the collection circle. From then on, no one will be able to question my ownership of this famous painting!

By the way, I can show off the limelight again, making others envious to death!

The stall owner was silent, and began to consider the price Ye Tian offered.

After five or six seconds, he made a decision.

Accept this price, sell this oil painting, and draw the most satisfactory end to the tour of Corridor 127!

But how did he know that what he was about to draw was an incomparably huge exclamation mark, enough to make him regret his whole life!

"OK! $22,000, deal! As long as you pay, this "Early Morning on Lake Erie" belongs to you, the best cash transaction, I like the green Franklin, I like the feeling of counting banknotes!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and smiled brilliantly.

"Excellent! Deal, I love the painting, thank you for bringing it to Birmingham, pay now, brand new Franklin!"

Ye Tian said excitedly, and shook hands with the stall owner to seal the deal.

Then, he took out $22,000 from his backpack and handed it to the stall owner, completing the last link of the transaction.

After receiving the payment, the stall owner immediately began to count, with an excited smile on his face.

Ye Tian walked up to the oil painting excitedly, and gently touched the picture with his hands, his movements were very gentle, just like stroking Betty's smooth skin.

But his eyes under the sunglasses were extremely bright, full of fanaticism and excitement.

It's dude Pollock, big bucks!

After secretly cheering, he immediately whispered through the earphones:

"Walker, come here and do me a favor. Let's carry this oil painting out. It's too big! It's not light."

"OK!"

Walker replied in a low voice, and walked over immediately.

Then, the two took the oil painting out of the booth and put it on the ground outside.

Ye Tian chose a spacious and dry place, intending to disassemble the picture frame here, and let Pollock hidden inside be seen again, shocking the entire courtyard market! Shock the entire art collection market!

The stall owner quickly finished counting the money. Under the envious eyes of other stall owners, he put $22,000 into his pocket, and then walked over with a telescopic painting tube.

"Steven, this is the painting tube you want. You really plan to tear down this picture frame! It's a pity, this is a classic oak picture frame, and it's worth a lot of money!"

"No way, I want to bring this oil painting back to New York, so I have to remove the frame. If you like the frame, you can keep them. I don't intend to take them away!"

Ye Tian pretended to be helpless and said that the performance was very good.

At the same time, he also gave the stall owner a little bit of sweetness, lest the old man regret it later and go straight over!

"That's great! Thanks, you're such a generous fellow!"

The stall owner said excitedly, smiling.

This pair of oak picture frame is of high quality, excellent carving workmanship, huge size, and has a history of 50 or 60 years. It is also an antique, and it is indeed worth a little money. It is an unexpected surprise, and he is of course very happy!

Ye Tian smiled and nodded, signaling to the stall owner that you are welcome.

Then, he said through the headset:

"Anderson, Raymond, come to my side. I want to dismantle this picture frame, and I need help. Others continue to sweep the goods, and move quickly!"

"Okay! We'll be right over!"

Anderson and Raymond responded in unison, and then walked towards this side, carrying two antiques in their hands.

Ye Tian asked them to come here, not just to help him, but also with a deeper intention!

As a lawyer, Anderson must be present to witness the process of discovering Pollock's paintings, and Raymond can strengthen security forces to prevent accidents from happening.

The two quickly came to the front and stood on both sides of Ye Tian, ​​ready to assist him in dismantling the picture frame.

Seeing Anderson and Raymond coming, several stall owners who came to see the excitement were dumbfounded, as if they were struck by lightning!

This gang of crazy shoplifters is actually subordinate to that bastard Steven, have everyone been tricked?

The answer is obviously yes?

Doesn't that mean that so many things these guys bought just now are all antiques or works of art, which is crazy! It's too damn hateful!

No need to ask, this must be a robbery planned by that bastard Steven! That damn bastard is a robber, a liar, and deserves to be hacked into pieces!

The anger boiled in an instant, and the eyeballs of the several stall owners were red, staring at Ye Tian stubbornly, their teeth were about to be gritted with hatred! .
