.Err
Is it that important to see the genuine articles?
Margo-san.
If you didn’t see the genuine thing, you can’t clearly know how the author actually made the work
.Un
Talking about my experience.there’s an art textbook that listed a painting of the horse of the King of Europe.1 That horse’s picture is somewhat strange. The horse’s neck is thick and the head is too big
.Then? Then.looking at the textbook, it says The dynamism is being expressed by drawing the thick horse neck. When I read that, I thought ‘Is that how it is?’ but.
Margo-san smiled.
Minaho brought me to the national gallery in London, the real thing was there.then
This person.even though she’s strong.
She’s having fun when talking about arts and music.
The horse picture is very huge.it’s an image you look up from below
A big image.you look up from below
That’s right.looking from below, the neck of the horse that was too fat for the small textbook photo is actually fitting. It’s a perspective trick. The author has that picture from the beginning.he has calculated the angle and distance from where the viewer would see. It’s big after all. Those kind of things won’t be discovered unless you saw the real thing, I’m really moved.
I see.
The photo’s size is reduced so you can’t understand it.
Geez, Maru-chan. In the first place, the color of the real thing and the photo is different don’t you think?
Nei-san comes in too.
Yo-chan.the real oil painting is really sparkly and beautiful!
Right.no matter how much printing technology develops, the real colors can’t be reproduced
Minaho-neesan said.
Besides.the real thing still has the painter’s brush mark still remaining. You can really tell that it’s made by human hands. It’ll make you think humans are amazing. They can express a lot of things with just the point and lines made by the brush sweep
Nei-san’s eyes are sparkling too.
I’d like to bring Yoshida-kun to a photography exhibit instead of paintings
Margo-san said.
When a real top-class photographer takes it, the photos developed have a completely different depth. That’s why printing is only half the charm. I think you won’t know the real value unless you see the original print!
Is that so
Anyway.first we’ll let him touch something top-class. Experience the genuine greatness.then understanding the first and second class will be later
Minaho-neesan said.
Right. If you see something half-hearted, your eyes would be clouded
Margo-san said.
Uhm.why is Margo-san and Nei-san so familiar with art?
Margo-san laughs.
Isn’t that obvious?Nei and I received Minaho’s education
Minaho-neesan.
Kyouko-san’s hobby is included too. That person is really fussy to see the first class and hone her aesthetic eyes
I never met her yet but.it seems that Kyouko-san has a variety of hobbies.
If you obtain the power to see through the value of things.then you can also understand the value of others
Minaho-neesan said.
For example.the suit you’re wearing right now. Why do you think it’s a luxury item?
Well.Margo-san said that the cloth of the fabric is vintage
If I recall.that’s what she told me.
Then, why do you think that fabric is vintage?
Well.that is.
Today.there’s no machine remaining that weave that fabic
Margo-san told me.
There’s a much more rational loom now. That cloth takes time and effort to weave.
is that so?
When you think you want to know the value of things.you first need to imagine how much work it would take. Top-class craftsmen’s creation with time and effort are absolutely expensive.
i see.
Next.feel whether the work contains ideas that only geniuses and skilled craftsmen can come up with. It’s calledflash
.Un
In the end, you have to put emphasis on the time and effort taken. Pay flash to the inspiration afterwards.
Minaho-neesan said.
.Why?
The flash and novel ideas stand out but.it doesn’t match the time and effort taken. Trying different ideas after a hundred of times.it removes failures and accumulate experience That’s what’s boring with the modern art you see. They just come up with a new idea, then splash their paint then announce their work.the weight of it being developed over time can’t be felt!
I don’t get the meaning of Nei-san’s opinion.
For example.this ball-pen here
Minaho-neesan took out a pen.
This thing.it took dozens of blueprints to make it
.blueprint
How many mm should be the length.what kind of mixture of king should be put in. A lot of blueprints are drawn, a lot of prototypes have been made to just put ball-pen into the world
i see.
Making things isn’t that easy.
Then they make it into a product and sell it.the buyers will see the beauty as the ease of use and select it again. The unaccepted ones will be weeded out. Then they’ll take the data of the remaining designs and use it for the next product
.Un That takes time and a lot of people refine it. Don’t you think it’s wonderful that things are made like that?
Minaho-neesan smiles.
Imagine every time you see things. How much time and effort taken to create a single thing
I look around.
The theater building.the sofa in the lobby. The lighting in the ceiling. Carpet. The reception desk. Chair. It’s things everyone spent time thinking. Thinking about it.human world is amazing.
All of the things in this world are created by everyone that way. First, the accumulation of man’s effort and time should be felt. Even artists.they take many years to acquire basic skills, then they take over their master and seniors’ guide with trial and error
Well, in the era where everyone you can easily debut without being someone’s disciple.even if you don’t take time to train, the environment lets you create work-like things
Minaho-neesan and Margo-san look at each other.
True.the young ones only have theflash Without the backing of skills and experience, theflashalone won’t become a work.
Doing only that and in the end, unable to earn experience, there are artists who became old-men
Nei-san speaks as if venting out.
There’s no need to be that angry. Those kind of artists disappear
They don’t! Aren’t they being arrogant? Well.the art industry is a small world. Especially in Japan. Well, there are people who have reason in irregularity and boast around That’s what grinds my gears! But.I think that artists who doesn’t have that kind of content will keep their status until they die. They’ll disappear in art’s history without leaving any traces. During 19th century, the academy painters who were just stupid impressionists are completely forgotten now Well.you’re right but!
Minaho-neesan breaks the conversation of the two.
Nei.keep the criticisms on the modern art at that level. Yoshida-kun would be troubled
Ah, sorry, it’s an uninteresting story for Yo-chan right?
Un.I don’t get Art that much
Or rather, why is everyone so knowledgeable?
Let’s go back to our topic. Yoshida-kun, it’s about time for the opening. Then, there will be a lot of people with a family standing offirst class noblecoming
.Yes It’s a good opportunity so observe it. Then, compare theirdignity
Earlier, Minaho-neesan said that there areelegantandvulgarpeople even among the top-class families.
What’s the difference?I have to think on practice.
It’s not just Yoshida-kun, you too
Minaho-neesan is talking not only to me.but also to theyounger generationwho’s been staring until now.
Got it
.Un, I’ll try Certainly
Megu, Mana, Michi answers.
Hmm, you really like teaching people something. Is this why you became a teacher?
Yukino criticizes Minaho-neesan.
Minaho-neesan’s face turned dark. She glares at Yukino.
