Recently, some netizens broke the news that one of Wang Shiling's oil paintings was bought and spent a million, but it is not clear who the buyer is, and no information has been disclosed to the outside world, so I am very curious, and it has also caused a lot of controversy on the whole network.
As for why it caused such a big controversy, the main reason is that the oil paintings that were sold could not be appreciated, did not meet the expected effects of most netizens, and did not reflect much artistic value.
From the point of view of the painting, it looks like a knocked over multicolored paint, smeared indiscriminately on the paper, the painting style is very abstract like numb, I don't know what I want to express, and a little recognizable place, that is, the middle of the oil painting is stamped with Wang Shiling's palm print, which plays the role of the finishing touch, and may be the key reason why this oil painting is worth one million.
However, for the vast majority of netizens, including many big Vs, almost all of them are looking at Wang Shiling's oil paintings with skeptical eyes, but they are limited by no artistic skills, and it is not easy to make professional comments.
So I had to target the buyer, wondering why the other party was willing to spend a million to buy such an incomprehensible oil painting.
It is undeniable that the value is not the oil painting itself, but the author of the oil painting, and the buyer pays such a high price, nine times out of ten, he goes for Wang Shiling's fame, or he may want to please Li Xiang and Wang Yuelun, this possibility is relatively large.
In this regard, many netizens boldly speculated that the reason why Wang Shiling's oil paintings can be sold for such a high price is because some people covet her background and vote for a performance that she likes.
Some netizens even pointed out sharply that it was not a painting that was bought, but the love of the people in that circle!
Of course, there are some bad speculations, as well as jokes, some of which say that they used the sale of paintings to launder money, and some said that they were introduced by Sarah Lee (a female painter in the Korean drama "Dark Honor").
In fact, Wang Shiling's paintings have always been very popular, when she was 8 years old, one painting was auctioned for 100,000 yuan, and later the money was donated, which can be regarded as a charity sale.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that Wang Shiling's oil paintings would become more and more valuable, which was beyond most people's expectations, but this is undoubtedly an unfair embodiment for a less famous painter.
In particular, the professional painters who graduated from the famous school Academy of Fine Arts, who have worked hard for decades, or even a lifetime, cannot reach the high return value brought by Wang Shiling's casual graffiti.
In addition to star parents such as Li Xiang and Wang Yuelun, his grandfather Wang Hui is the key figure to add value to oil painting, and the famous painter Wu Guanzhong is not only famous in the world, but also treasured by museums, very famous in the painting industry, everyone knows everyone.
And Wang Shiling has learned to draw with her grandfather since she was a child, although the current level is not as good as the tip of her grandfather's iceberg, but the potential can be stimulated, and there will be more room for growth in the future.
In June last year, Li Xiang suddenly released a very happy news through his social account, saying that Wang Shiling's paintings were exhibited at the Louvre Museum in France, and also won the recognition of many well-known painters, and also won awards with high gold content in China.
All in all, Wang Shiling's oil paintings cannot be viewed with prejudice, after all, one is willing to fight and one wish is beaten, and it is difficult to buy me if there is money.
