Eight hundred and seventeenth chapter folk culture

After leaving Ota's decoration store, Li Yi never went to other stores. First, it was a little late, and second, the exhibition would take one week, but if he was serious, he could finish all the exhibits in at most two days. The rest was time to visit those small shops one by one.

When he returned to the hotel, he had not had a long rest before he received a call from Hirosi Qing.

The two first talked about a few nonsense about nutrition, and Hirosi Kiyoto carefully tentatively: "Mr. Li Yi, I heard from Misa that you collected a hand scroll from Kant's place, can I take a look at this first?"

Li Yi smiled and said that the phone number you are waiting for.

More than half an hour later, Kiyoto Hirosi hurried over. In addition to Aita Misa, there was also a thin old man with a completely white head.

"Mr. Li Yi, let me introduce to you first. This is a famous Ukiyo-e painter, Master Hiejima Shin, who has a deep study of the works of Shin-Hirikawa."

After talking politely to each other, Li Yi took out the hand scroll.

"This hand scroll is indeed the work of Master Rikawa Shin-chan, and it should be his essay in his late experiments with new styles. It is very precious!" After reading it for nearly an hour, Shin-chan of Hiejima nodded affirmatively and determined the authenticity of this hand scroll.

"Mr. Li Yi, I heard Kiyowa say that you once wanted to exchange this hand-roll for the Ota family's nodding face, but Ota refused. Is this a matter?"

"Yes, but the value of a set of nods and faces is obviously not as good as this work, so even if Ota agrees, he must take out some other cultural relics."

Shin Hiejima nodded in contemplation. Although he had never seen the Ota family's nodding face, it was obvious that no matter how precious the face was, it was not enough to offset the value of this hand-rolled hand scroll, and it was even far from it.

"Mr. Li Yi, I am very interested in your hand-roll, but I may not be able to come up with so many jade ornaments. Look, can I replace it with other things?"

"Of course this is OK, but I still hope that it can contain a set of dotted decorations, after all, the meaning is different."

Shin Hiejima glanced at Kiyoto Hiroshi and nodded again. Indeed, the value of the decoration set is far from comparable to some sporadic ones. However, in such a hurry, where can they go to find another set of faces?

"Time is not a problem. I will stay in Japan for at least 10 days, and I think it should be enough." Since Li Yi took out this hand scroll, he didn't plan to take it back. What's more, the news was leaked, even if he wanted to take it back, he might not be able to do it.

"That's good, Mr. Li Yi, time is tight, so I won't delay your rest anymore. I look forward to meeting you next time." The matter was settled, and Shinjima didn't want to delay for a moment, so he immediately stood up and said goodbye, which also allowed Li Yi to roughly see the value of this hand-rolled scroll.

The next day, the antique exhibition at the Tokyo International Exhibition Hall opened, and Li Yi rushed to the venue as soon as possible. Because Kiyoto Hirosi once told him that there were many good things sold on the first day of the exhibition. Although some of them could still be seen in the booth afterwards, they were just to make the exhibition look less fragmented, and there was no chance.

This principle is the same as the biennial that Li Yi attended before. However, can this thing be generalized? One item can be sold and one more item can be displayed. The exhibitors should be looking for it!

"The main reason is that some precious antiques have a great impact on the level of the exhibition, so the organizer hopes that when encountering such antiques, exhibitors can keep them. Gradually, a rule has been formed. The more non-selling items are marked on the booth, the higher the quality of the antiques in the store."

"Damn it, it's really amazing. Not only did the mechanism of the biennial were introduced, but even domestic real estate developers learned the same thing."

"Real Estate?" The Biennale Qing Wu Hongsi could understand, but what does antique exhibition and sales have to do with real estate?

Thinking of the confusion of Wu Hongsi of Qing Dynasty at that time, Li Yi smiled slightly. If he dared to let some unscrupulous businessmen in China participate in the exhibition, he would dare to put all the exhibits on labels of non-sale products, and then slowly explain to you what it means to order, what it means to sell, and what it means to use a second-hand new house.

The exhibition was very large in scale, divided into four halls, with the themes being porcelain, furniture, calligraphy and paintings, and auction halls. The total area is not much different from that of the jewelry exhibition in Hong Kong, and there seems to be more stalls.

Li Yi was going to calligraphy and paintings and other museums first, because although his porcelain collection was still far from the system, the famous porcelains from all dynasties had almost been collected. Moreover, in this other hall, you might encounter some strange things that you had never seen before.

When he arrived at the place, he realized that the situation on the scene was quite different from the previous description of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty Hongsi described him a snap-up scene, but in fact, there were not many customers on the scene, and there were much fewer people than the jewelry fair in Hong Kong.

In fact, this is the phenomenon that antique exhibitions should be. After all, not everyone is interested in this thing, and they can tell the truth or the false.

"In this case, you don't have to worry too much. Turn slowly. If you can find the right one, buy two. It doesn't matter if you can't touch it."

After the plan was decided, Li Yi suddenly felt relaxed. He first received a visiting guide, found the location of the calligraphy and painting hall from the picture, and then took Gu Feng toward the other side.

The location of the calligraphy and painting hall is actually Hall No. 6 of Tokyo International Exhibition Hall, located in the southwest of the entire venue, very close to Li Yi's entry, so a few minutes later, he rushed to the entrance of the calligraphy and painting hall.

"This painting is good. It can be full of power in a quiet and peaceful state. It should be a masterpiece."

As soon as he walked into the hall, Li Yi saw a huge landscape painting. This painting had only two colors throughout the painting, one was a pale sky with a slightly blue hint of blue, and the other was a hill dyed with maple leaves and even the rocks.

Looking closely, there was a big tree in the golden field that exposed several black trunks. This wonderful stroke that didn't even take up one percent of the entire picture actually made the whole picture come alive all at once.

"The autumn, the east mountain is no wonder"

When Li Yi saw that the signature of this painting was actually a work by Dongshan Kuiyi in 1958, he not only exclaimed softly.

In the art history of modern and modern Japan, Higashiyama Kuiyi has the title of modern painting saint. His landscape paintings often express pure nature without the pollution of modern civilization. He is best at maintaining flatness while enhancing the sense of space and lyrical meanings in decorativeness. His paintings are elegant and profound in style, full of poetic philosophy, and reveal different personalities from other painters everywhere.

His characteristic is inseparable from his profound literary foundation, because he is also a famous essayist. It is said that his prose is called "Two Bi" with the "leading" figure in the Japanese literary world and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature Yasunari Kawabata.

It is not easy to achieve the ultimate in one field. Dongshan Kuiyi can achieve the ultimate in two areas with great differences, which makes people sigh at his innocence.

I looked at the position where the price tag was placed. As expected, the three Japanese characters written in non-selling products were indeed written. However, Li Yi speculated that this non-selling product was mostly not sold, but that it was not sold. Moreover, the so-called non-selling products was limited. As long as the conditions were appropriate, it was possible to get this work.

"Although the little Japanese is beautiful, it is a bit worth it if the price is too high." I have to say that it is like Japanese comics and AV. As a nation that has existed independently for thousands of years, there are still many things in Japanese culture that can arouse Li Yi's interest. But as a Chinese, it is still okay to browse it occasionally with an appreciation look. If you really have to spend a lot of effort to collect it, Li Yi will not do it.

The exhibition and dealer's booth is very large. In addition to this work by Higashiyama Kuiyi, there are also many works by famous Japanese modern painters, such as the works of Japanese manga and animation styles. The works are full of works by the innocence and interesting popular artist Mitoto Nara, as well as the works of alternative avant-garde artist Yayoi Kusama, all of which showcase the strong interpersonal relationships and strong strength of the exhibitor.

Compared with this exhibitor, the exhibitor opposite that occupied the same booth of almost the same size is a completely different style. It mainly displays Japanese folk culture, not only with various kimonos, but also with some equipment and clothing of various warriors of the times. There are also many Japanese monsters, Kabuki dolls, Japanese specialty bone porcelain, Li Yi even saw some Chinese porcelain that were obviously imitated in modern times.

"This is a sleeveless kimono, which is generally used for more formal occasions for married women to attend. This is the most worn in the sleeveless kimono, coming-of-age ceremony, graduation ceremony, and banquet. This small pattern kimono is mostly used for dates and shopping."

A Japanese girl wearing a kimono was explaining various kimono to a group of European guests. Li Yi also followed behind with a smile. If no one introduced this thing, he would not be able to tell.

"This is a witch suit. When praying to God, they will also bring flower hairpins and golden crowns. At 10:30, we will have a witch prayer performance here. Those participating in the performance are real witches. Everyone is welcome to come and watch it."

Li Yi was very interested in the soft and gentle introduction of the Japanese girl. This promotional model is much smarter than simply asking some models to walk on the stage. Liangliang's thighs are much smarter. His museum seems to be able to set up a separate venue and hold similar performances regularly (to be continued.)8
