Chapter 268 The new model of “art naming” (4K two-in-one)
"Impressionism?"
"Impression. Impression" Everyone chewed on the root of this word, and their eyes lit up more and more.
The composer Lausanne, who was holding a lady's cigarette in his hand and wearing a rose-colored high-waisted skirt, exhaled a long stream of smoke: "I really can't find a more suitable metaphor for the 'sense of moment' in Mr. Fanning's words."
A substitute!"
"Excellent." Marais, who was pounding a paintbrush in a turpentine bucket, paused. "We are committed to breaking the traditional romantic vocabulary of art or music. Our works all emphasize outdoor light, color flow, smell and atmosphere.
The artistic commonality of creative elements such as momentary emotions. This word is not only a wonderful metaphor, but also not made up out of thin air. It is also extracted from everyone’s existing artistic practice.”
Several other people nodded. Indeed, the painters in the Salon of the Unselected had more or less named several works with the word "impression" in them. This trend was also found in the field of music and poetry.
Virgil folded his arms and thought: "The previous formulation of 'suggestion flow' was too straightforward in some situations, and some situations lacked a clear connection. It is always inappropriate from today's perspective. And 'impression'
'Impressionist music', 'Impressionist painting', 'Impressionist style', 'Impressionist'. All the terms are undoubtedly very appropriate."
Obviously, in subsequent artistic activities, they will all claim to be "Impressionists". Fan Ning watched them talk with a smile. Well, it's just that in the previous life, "Impressionism" was a derogatory term when it was first proposed, De Biao
Musicians such as West and Ravel have never considered themselves "Impressionists". But obviously the artists here fully agree that if an emerging term is spontaneously generated from the inside out, the acceptance will be much higher.
I think this can be regarded as driving the trend of art development in a similar historical period. In the future, this term will be comparable to "authenticism" and "romanticism".
"Mr. Fan Ning, thank you very much for your criticism and support." Lausanne's brown eyes looked at Fan Ning, "Mr. Vincent's artistic works were my spiritual guide. Maybe now I should follow you with practical actions.
Already."
Virgil said, "May I ask if you are also an Impressionist? Everyone is undoubtedly looking forward to which painting you will refer to and what kind of work you will write in the second half of the last concert."
"Me?" Faced with this question, Fan Ning fell into a brief thought.
The existence of any artist, including "Crescent Moon" or even "Torch Bearer", is more or less influenced by a specific era.
They either summarize a certain artistic style to a high level and reach its peak to a divine level;
Either there have been several stylistic changes in his artistic career, and he has combined the achievements of the former and pioneered the latter.
It is difficult for individuals to transcend history. No matter what, they always have one or several style labels that belong to the era.
What's more, by the turn of the 9th century in the New Calendar, or the turn of the 19th century on Blue Star, the development of art schools is no longer like the parallel timeline of the past from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, and then from Baroque to Classicism.
.
——In this old industrial era that is undergoing drastic changes, the evolution of artistic trends of "Romanticism-Impressionism-Modernism" is overlapping and intertwined on the timeline.
During the same period, some people adhered to the academic vocabulary of the prosperous period of romanticism, some pushed romanticism to its ultimate peak, some planted the acquired techniques in the soil of nationalism, and some pursued the blurred impressions and emotions of sound, color, light and shadow, perhaps soon
There will also be people who take advantage of the trend to go further and completely disintegrate the 24 major and minor harmony systems.
Even when it comes to "modern music", it is a general hodgepodge concept, including neoclassicism, expressionism, and modern nationalism. "Atonality" or "twelve-tone sequence" is just a technical tendency rather than a technical tendency.
Specific genre.
Artists, a group with profound humanistic sensibilities, are too easy to feel anxious and anxious at the moment.
With various trends of thought and styles colliding, where should we go?
Fan Ning couldn't help but question himself.
Are you considered a staunch romantic? Or a latent impressionist? Or are you trying to borrow a path to become a future modern-style musician?
And the answer to this question is.
"No, I'm completely different."
"I have seen these things before. Which Western genre have I not heard of? I don't belong to this world. In other words, my thoughts come from the future - I can predict even the styles that have not yet appeared."
"In order to express the true feelings of free will, I can use the techniques of any period in my artistic career to serve it. Of course, I prefer the ultimate vocabulary of the late Romanticism framework, but I will write what others think is shocking.
The scale of the orchestration and the duration of the performance, and the expression terminology instructions that are completely out of the classical category. It does not rule out that I will introduce some fuzzy tonal techniques in future works. Even if I don't write, the complex techniques of those modern schools in the future will be in my field of vision.
It is still clear and clear, and there will be no cognitive confusion at all."
Fan Ning will not be bound by any musical style or limit his vision. He writes whatever he likes and uses whatever techniques are suitable.
Is the impressionistic style too advanced? Sorry, even Schoenberg's music no longer sounds "avant-garde" to Fanning's ears in the 21st century.
Do you know about Holistic Serialism? Do you know about Neo-Expressionism? Do you know about differential music, accidental music, concrete music, noise music, and ambient music?
So when faced with Virgil and Lausanne's questions, Fan Ning smiled lightly, "I appreciate and understand any shining art genre and technique, but I am just myself."
"Wow--"
When Fan Ning named Impressionism, pushed the trend of art history forward, and clarified the proposition about "the relationship between self and the style of the times," he felt that some spiritual barrier was broken.
The surrounding scene briefly spun, and in a daze, Fan Ning seemed to sense that the spirit body inhabited the high place of the world's will, and seemed to have a tendency to tear open a "pathway".
Could it be that I found the key to a certain door? In the waking world, Fan Ning was not sure what happened, and the dizzy feeling quickly disappeared.
He saw the man and woman in front of him again, as well as the three painters next to him, all of whom looked thoughtful about what he had just said.
"It seems that Mr. Fan Ning still prefers the vocabulary of Romanticism. Well, as I once said, Romanticism is still in its prosperous period, and the development of techniques is far from reaching its limit. During this period, not only are there many masters, but there are also no great masters.
Conclusion.”
Virgil remained respectful, although Fanning seemed to claim that he was not an Impressionist.
"Your talents in the fields of composition and conducting are amazing. You are also a descendant of the predecessors of Impressionism. No one understands them better than you. Although Mr. Fanning has more followers of Romanticism, I am equally willing to stand firm.
I will follow you wholeheartedly." Lausanne still said so bluntly.
Fan Ning came back to his senses, shook his head and smiled: "Actually, I will still write an orchestral piece in the impressionistic style this time."
This sentence made everyone's eyes brighten.
"It will meet you at the last concert, for the sake of this 'combination of music and painting', and also to convey to the art world my emphasis and appreciation of this emerging trend of thought. In fact, you will find that the
"Piano Concerto No. 3 in C major" also has many modern elements."
"Really! That's so exciting!" Luosang's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Which painting caught your eye?" Virgil asked curiously.
Fan Ning turned around with a smile and looked at one of the three collection paintings he selected.
"It's inspiring, isn't it?"
Everyone's eyes followed the movement, and the painter Claude was delighted to find that Fan Ning had chosen his own work: "Seascape Gradient"
The size of this painting is a little special, with a height of 60 cm and a width of 140 cm. Although the area is only above average among many paintings, the shape is very wide.
This is a seascape, but the artist made it a gradient process in three parts, juxtaposing scenes that are impossible to appear at the same time in reality:
The ocean on the far left is dark blue and deep, and the night seems to be slowly opening. The sky is a gradient from gray to purple to cyan, and a very small but eye-catching light dances on the sea level;
By the middle section, the sky has turned to dawn, the waves are crashing on the sea surface, the waves are shining, and the curves drawn by the sea and sky are full of dynamic;
On the far right, lightning and strong winds appeared, and several small boats floated and swayed, presenting a magnificent scene. Viewers seemed to be able to hear the roaring of the wind and roaring waves in their ears.
It really matches perfectly with Debussy's large-scale orchestral work "La Mer" on Blue Star.
Fan Ning's inspiration could not help but include the faint prelude of the strings and the rolling sound of the sea waves struck by the timpani, and then the tranquil tones of the two harps gradually merged with them, so that the hazy texture of the dividing line between sea and sky was replaced by the French horn and the English
The tube is outlined, a ray of light heralding the coming of dawn.
That’s it!
Occasionally playing some impressionistic music to the audience is also in line with the fashion trend of this era.
Several others were completely confused by Fan Ning's creative ability and were greatly shocked.
First they learned that Fanning was composing his Second Symphony.
Then he wrote several more steel works.
The current oscillation of inspiration gave them an intuitive prediction on the spot that this great composer was brewing another landmark work!
He can still write? He can actually still write?
First win over the academics, and then you can still practice impressionism?
Virgil was a little lucky, but fortunately it was Fan Ning who performed the closing performance, otherwise he would really not be able to bear the psychological pressure of "going high and going low".
Before parting, Luosang watched Fan Ning enter the car, then took out his business card and looked at it without blinking.
After visiting the three leading painters, Fan Ning selectively visited several other members of the Losers Salon in Fort Saint-Talán, and then he went non-stop to the Ministry of Culture and Media for his next trip.
——Business cooperation negotiation.
He briefly greeted Minister Noel, Director Humphrey and other dignitaries before entering the prearranged negotiation room.
Here, the cultural department has already made connections, and based on the scope of Fan Ning's needs, appointments have been made in advance with several heads of well-known companies in the empire.
The first chaebol that Fanning chose was: Kent Motor Company.
This was a negotiation that was filled with a happy atmosphere from the beginning.
The heads of these chaebol groups like to deal with artists of this level.
They also have wealth, titles, and even one or two knowledgeable outsiders among their family members. However, the mysterious forces cannot be used to usurp power and commit rebellion. At most, they can expand their connections in the extraordinary circles of the authorities.
There is nothing that can be done cheaply. In the final analysis, these industrial plutocrats are more interested in the family's political status and cultural and artistic tastes.
However, most art masters have "very good personalities". If they want to invite "Crescent Moon" beings to dedicate works to their families, attend events, and teach their children, if they do not have a lineage of teachers and do not have the talent to be appreciated by the masters, it may be very difficult.
Difficult. If you can be treated politely by the high-level Insights of all major extraordinary organizations, why would you buy the face of your conglomerate if there is no special reason?
In contrast, great/famous artists at the level of "Forged Lion" or "Blade Bearer" have both a small probability of becoming a "Crescent Moon" and a medium probability of being connected to the "Crescent Moon" network, and more importantly
What's more, they are "approachable".
Although I am not as good as my master, and I have no artistic talent, money can clear the way, and marriage is also a good way.
Yes, today, several chaebol groups have planned a sponsorship ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 pounds after hearing that Fan Ning, a musical genius, is seeking "business negotiation and cooperation" and that the central cultural department has made arrangements to endorse him.
He also brought the unmarried daughter of his family to attend the meeting, hoping to get acquainted with him.
It is normal for a great conductor to start an orchestra at a young age, and it is normal for him to be a little financially strapped. It is not a complicated business cooperation, and it is not a business war. Just "reward" sponsorship and that's it.
It has been a good story from ancient times for the royal family and nobles to support artists, and our new plutocratic aristocrats also have this taste.
Get the best of both worlds by dedicating a future work and getting some acknowledgments and courtesy for the family at Turner Hall events.
Well, if Mr. Conductor feels that the amount is not enough, then you might as well consider discussing it alone with the young and beautiful lady sitting opposite you.
Such as the first Kent Motor Company.
This is indeed how the conversation went at first.
The trend is also developing according to such a trend.
Until Fan Ning expressed that he wanted to play something different.
In the brightly lit and elegantly decorated circular negotiation room, Fan Ning on the main sofa held rose water and asked with a smile:
