Soul Painter

Gao Fan yelled at the Charles River for a while, and was cheered by the citizens and tourists.

Anna pulled her back.

This is the task given to Anna by the agent, to control Gao Fan when he damages his image.

Anna doesn't quite understand what it means to 'damage her own image'. Her understanding of the world is in the form of a formula.

So Lawrence listed two conditions: one is to go crazy, and the other is to go crazy in front of the public.

Lawrence has long heard that in addition to seeing the soul work of the city, "Bostonians", you can also see the "Painter's Cry", which is hailed as a city spectacle, on the banks of the Charles River. He thinks it's too shameful, really.

Gao Fan returned to the studio.

He cheered up because he realized that he had found a wonderful talent for painting.

The more difficult it is to draw, the greater the challenge and the more wonderful the result.

In the "Strongest on Earth" painting exhibition, he was tired of drawing animals and humans. It wasn't challenging at all, it was just a simple repetition.

However, when he returned to his inspiration fragments again.

He saw that the bluestone is still there, the fields are still there, and the sky and the earth in the sixth century AD are still there.

But Lao Tzu is gone, and so is the cow.

A line of writing was left on that piece of bluestone: I am going to the Western Regions, and I will return as soon as I go.

Seeing this word, Gao Fan was stunned.

My painting NPC is missing... gone... gone...

This is too outrageous!

The inspiration fragment is based on mystery, and what is intercepted is a fragment of the target person's life.

How can human beings run away with their own lives?

Yeah.

Lao Tzu is not human.

He may be a great being.

But Gao Fan expressed doubts about this.

Because Lao Tzu feels too close to Gao Fan.

The great beings he has come into contact with, from the knowledge of the silver key, to the beauty of the elk cat, the blazing flames, and the weirdness of the Rubik's Cube, all of them are huge and have a sense of existence that can crush human beings, but I am close to them. Lively and chattable, so what exactly is Lao Tzu?

Even if he was puzzled, Gao Fan had no choice.

Because I ran away!

From that day on, Gao Fan fell into a state of 'lovesickness'.

Every day I was bored and tried to draw Lao Tzu's appearance, but the ones I drew were indeed all rubbish.

So his 'lovesickness' for Lao Tzu became more and more intense.

A few more days passed.

Gao Fan was still trying.

Suddenly, the doorbell on the first floor rang.

There was only one sound, and it stopped abruptly.

Immediately Gao Fan received a call: "Sir, there is a man named Ian Grimchell, do you know him?"

Since the incident at midnight on the TV station, in order to protect Gao Fan, the LP organization spontaneously organized a team to be responsible for guarding the safety of Gao Fan's villa area every day. However, any strangers who try to contact Gao Fan will be inspected by them. Just now When the doorbell rang and stopped, it was Iron Grimchell who was being checked.

Hearing this name, Gao Fan recalled a red coat, a round body, and a seemingly humble but proud expression. It was the person in charge of the world's most famous chain gallery PACE, Ian Grimchell.

"It's an old friend of mine, let him come up."

Gao Fan doesn't really want to draw recently. He wants to meet old friends, catch up with old friends, have some fun, and relax his mind.

He still remembered that three years ago, it was PACE that acquired his immature painting "Maggots Swarming".

In "The Rush of Maggots", the painting skills of the Devil School have just begun to take shape, and some scenes that touch the soul can be used to show the aggressiveness of human reason, and then when it reaches the stage of "Mask" group painting, it is no longer necessary .

...

When Ian Grimchell walked into Gao Fan's riverside villa, he couldn't help feeling a lot of emotions at the moment. Three years ago, Gao Fan was still a "new and cutting-edge" painter, and 30,000 US dollars was enough to buy it. He works, and still at a premium.

And three years later, Gao Fan has founded the Demon School, and will be included in the history of art as the most valuable surviving painter in history in the 21st century. All this is just three years. What is a miracle? It's just a miracle, and it's a miracle that passed Ain by.

In the past three years, how many times did Ai En dream that he signed Gao Fan at the Biennale...

Now, seeing Gao Fan, Ain praised: "I heard that you have been in poor health recently, but now you seem to be looking good. It's really gratifying. Your health is the gospel of art in the world."

"Mr. Ain, it's too outlandish for you to boast so much." Gao Fan said happily, "You are still my first customer. Who did you sell "Maggots Swarm" to? If it doesn't sell, I plan to buy it back. "

"It was sold to a collector in Eastern Europe," Ain said, "just in May of this year."

"After Christie's big auction, it's a good day." Gao Fan knew that he was the most expensive at that time and was accepted by the market. Unlike the awkward situation now, Ain was indeed a good businessman.

"You seem to have encountered some difficulties recently?" Ain said again.

At this time, Gao Fan was pouring wine for Ain. He had a lot of wine in the wine cabinet, including red wine, white wine, vodka, and brandy. Even if he was not drunk, Gao Fan liked the dry taste of these wines. Bringing some excitement, Gao Fan even missed the past when he was watched by the elk when the inspiration was exhausted.

After handing a red wine glass to Ain, Gao Fan sat opposite him, facing this question, Gao Fan was puzzled: "How do you know that I have encountered problems in creation?"

"You also encountered problems in creation? That's really regrettable. What I'm talking about is not creation, but the market. It seems that your paintings are not selling well, right?" Ain said.

oh? Gao Fan shook his red wine glass, looked at Ai En, what's the matter, scolded the bald donkey in front of the monk, and buried him in front of the painter for not being able to paint?

"I think that Fang Gusi is eager for quick success and short-sighted in your management. It makes you a target of public criticism and the enemy of the buyer's market in the entire world..."

...

Lawrence flies to Boston once a week.

When Gao Fan encountered a bottleneck in his creation recently, he would fly twice a week.

This time, after coming to the villa by the Charles River, and having a conversation with Gao Fan about "what do you want to paint" and "I don't want to paint anything" as usual, Gao Fan's next words will have some impact on Lawrence. blow, and even affect his professional life.

"Ai En came here not long ago, do you still remember Ai En from PACE?" Gao Fan said.

"Of course I remember that PACE is still Fang Gusi's target. Even if Fang Gusi has you, he is still just a newcomer to the world's art circle, and PACE is an old aristocrat." Lawrence said, "What does Ain come to do? Digging a corner?"

I have to say that Lawrence was still a little nervous.

Although the relationship with Gao Fan is very close, it is also true that Fang Gesi is weak. Lu Guoying did not sign Fang Gesi.

"Ai En thinks that I have said a lot of bad things about you, but the point is, I still think these bad things are very reasonable..." Gao Fan said with a smile.

Lawrence's forehead was sweating all of a sudden.
