Explore the past, record the present, and treasure the old Yunnan in memory
When it comes to oil painting, most people will think of the world-famous Mona Lisa in the Louvre in France, and most of them feel that only the Renaissance atmosphere of the Louvre and the European classical architectural style are the most compatible with oil painting.
Of course, there are also industrial-style pavilions that have made many urban aesthetics fall one after another, and the rugged and simple and casual exhibition halls are also further inertial solidifying people's old understanding of oil painting.
At this moment, there is such a ups and downs of the color visual feast, breaking the traditional oil painting and exhibition hall collocation, into the traditional Chinese blue tile cornice patio courtyard, with wood carved window sash and gilded painting, competing for the beauty and brilliance.
In February, the old residence of Li Hengsheng in the ancient city of Shiping, the warm and warm sunlight sprinkled on the wide courtyard, piled on the bare skin, like the brushstrokes of the oil painting swimming past, piled up the painter's perception of life and life, strong and direct.
In the preface to the exhibition, the painter says that painting is very much like life, and at a certain stage, the answer is less important, but it will remember a state, a state of no cause and effect, in which feelings and intuition become free, sensitive and pure.
Just like the story of the owner of this old mansion of the Republic of China, many people remember it, and many people do not know it, but it does not affect our appreciation of the beauty of this old mansion of the Republic of China, because in the state of "emptiness", the cognition of its beauty will also become free, sensitive and pure.
Of course, if you know or are willing to understand, just like when the exhibition teacher personally explains the story behind the creation of a painting to you, I believe that your feelings of beauty will be more intense, just as when you know the magnificent and tragic life of the owner of the old house, you are in a courtyard with a large space, and you are aware of life in the changing light and shade of the cloister.
Li Yidao, a young painter, is a native of Niujie Town, Shiping County, a member of the Yunnan Provincial Artists Association, and the founder of Kunming Yidao Art Museum. He loves his hometown and has returned to his hometown for many years to hold a painting exhibition, this time with a total of 51 works in 4 groups to exhibit his perception and speculation on "life".
Li Hengsheng's old residence, built in the Republic of China period (1924-1927), the whole building is grand in scale, 14 houses, 17 large and small patios, scientific architectural structure, exquisite art, is a representative work of Shiping residences. In 2013, it was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit, which is a rare "national treasure" in the ancient city, and it forms a national security building complex in the core area of the ancient city together with Shiping Prefecture Ya, Yuping Academy and Shiping Confucian Temple.
Li Hengsheng, a commercial giant of the Republic of China in Shiping, is an industrialist full of family and country feelings. He started with the tin industry, and his business name ranged from Shiping, Gejiu, Kunming, and all the way to Hong Kong, but he was rich and not proud, enthusiastic about public welfare, actively supported the education, culture and medical undertakings in Yunnan and his hometown shiping, and purchased a fighter jet to give to the anti-Japanese front during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
