Squinting, has always been the image of the Western countries maliciously ugly the chinese people, but did not expect that in today's highly developed people's consciousness of the contemporary era, there is a group of Chinese people actually regard this phenomenon as an international "aesthetic", presumably everyone knows who is talking about, the first two days of Henan "underwater Roselle" has just been popular all over the world, and now Tsinghua squinting eyes have come out to be a demon, but the difference is that one is a high-level national style, and the other is a low-level "flattery".
As early as a few days ago, when this group of so-called graduation designs of the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts was put on the table, some people threatened that they would not be better, and the result was obvious, the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts was scolded miserably, and here I would like to ask you first, in your hearts, what kind of thing can be regarded as the graduation design of the country's super-first-class institutions?
Super high artistic aesthetics, excellent design, and conform to the core of the times, based on these three points, can be regarded as a work of real artistic value, such as the graduation design of Zhengzhou Institute of Technology and Business School, which not only caters to the times, but also integrates oriental elements, while tsinghua academy of fine arts, squinting eyes, this time the design did not bring them full applause, but successfully "pulled down" the aesthetics of the academy.
Countless netizens have left messages angrily, "Who are these works insulting? "Stereotyping? Wait, saying that Tsinghua is deliberately self-defaming and pandering to the West, then why does tsinghua academy of fine arts make the majority of netizens so resentful, is this graduation project really deliberately smearing?
When you look at all the photos of the fashion show, you will definitely come to a conclusion, even a person who does not understand art will feel that this is not an oriental aesthetic at all, not to mention clothing, just the reason why all models use squinting eyes, it is puzzling.
Here first with these photos to introduce to you, the so-called squint, the earliest from the magazines and newspapers of individual Western countries, and all are used to scandalize the image of the East, and this time the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts fashion show, full of screen squinting, indeed make people feel uncomfortable, in addition to the reasons for the model itself, the organizer also deliberately elongated the tail of the model's eyes, very deliberately fit the stereotype of the West for the East, and even with the meaning of humiliation.
For the Chinese people, this is obviously not in line with our aesthetics, because in their eyes, such a face is more like the "East", for example, the internationally famous supermodel Lu Yan, is the Oriental face recognized by many Western countries, the eyes are slender and long, but anyone who pulls a Chinese casually will not think she is good-looking, but people are the darlings of the West.
After all, the models invited to participate in the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts this time are innocent, and these models who squint on the stage are not victims, after all, in the fashion industry, only by following Europe and the United States and obeying their system can they get more exposure, even if the other party maliciously uglys the image of the Chinese people and stereotypes the oriental aesthetics, most people can only choose to passively accept.
But in any case, perhaps it is the oppression of the West for a long time, or all kinds of dissatisfaction, at this moment, the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts completely detonated them, as to why squinting can cause so much discussion, Weibo hot search is high, here we still have to know a person's name.
Fu Manchu, he is a fictional character in a 19th-century British novel, in the eyes of the previous generation or even several generations of Westerners, Fu Manchu represents the image of China, and Fu Manchu's appearance is also inexhaustible, slender squinting eyes, two corners of drooping goatee, a Qing Dynasty style of the same old master's clothes, mixed together to create a harmless, sinister and cunning villain look.
In the United States, it is very effective to coax children to sleep with the god of death, and it is also quite effective to scare with ghosts in China, in Britain, Fu Manchu is such a negative image, until now, there are still many children in Western countries who have a fear of Fu Manchu, because this "evil" image is too deeply rooted in people's hearts.
If there are some European and American people provoking Chinese, one of the most common actions they use is to pick their eyes up and squeeze them into a squinting shape, in other words, this kind of behavior is more serious than the racial discrimination in the United States!
So, in other words, any flesh-and-blood Chinese, in the face of such an insult, will choose to stand up, right? But please see what tsinghua academy of fine arts has done? Pandering, Europe and the United States discriminate against us, now even some Chinese people do not shy away from "kneeling and licking" and "pandering", how can we not be angry?
Compared with the "hypochondriasis" of tsinghua academy of fine arts, Henan has done a very good job in spreading national culture, giving the people of the whole country a surprise, their underwater roselle not only won the unanimous praise of domestic netizens, its influence even spread to the international, underwater dancing dancers, perfectly restored Cao Zhi's characters "flying like a dragon, like a dragon, Rong Yao Qiuju, Huamao Chunsong", in addition to the underwater Roselle, there are dragon boat festivals, Lanling King Entry Song and other rich domestic cultural things circulated out, so that the world was shocked.
At this point, there may be fans of Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts who say that they can't compare a province and school, since provinces and schools can't be compared, there is always a difference between the two schools, just like the above, Henan Zhengzhou Institute of Technology and Business, although it is simply "different from Tsinghua", but people's achievements in artistic aesthetics are higher than those of Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts.
At this year's on-campus fashion show, the art students of the School of Technology and Business told the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts what is called oriental beauty, Dan phoenix eyes, peach blossom eyes, plump face, graceful and colorful body, and Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, such an obvious sense of difference, how can not make people angry, and because of this, the Internet wind comments are not stopping, denouncing the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts for "self-ugliness, catering to the West".
But calm down and think about it carefully, in fact, for this kind of behavior, we don't have to do this, we don't have to have such a big malice towards our compatriots, after all, because of a disqualified graduation design to anger the whole school, very unwise, very naïve, this wordless incident is actually just the inertia of thought that has been continuous for many years, and the source of this inertia is the lack of confidence in ourselves, the lack of confidence in the national culture.
These people are pitiful to say, they do not dare to stand up straight against the deformed rules set by Europe and the United States, but instead completely submit to the West, and even be brainwashed by them, only dare to hide and fight against their own people's doubts, otherwise how can they say "you don't understand art", even if we don't understand art, but the simple ugly beauty can still be distinguished.
What is true art? Although we may not be able to answer, it is absolutely impossible to be the squinting eyes of the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, and like the underwater Roselle, like the Lanling King's Army, art can be high mountains and flowing water, or it can be a thousand horses galloping, or even a widow in the world, but it is definitely not against the principle.
Give a word of advice to the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, you can innovate, you can boldly create, but you must absolutely distinguish what is good and evil, what is ugly, and have cultural self-confidence that belongs to the Chinese, after all, only from the bones of self-confidence, so as not to consciously inferior in culture, blindly flattering to cater to others.
