**Ten Thousand Fans Incentive Plan Is the meaning of oil painting realistic? Is oil painting an art dispensable to life, just an embellishment?
Human life is in the rise and fall of the sunrise and sunset, labor, seeking, in the whole process, we are not robots, if just for the sake of living and living step by step, what is the meaning of human life?
In addition to this body, a person lives in the world, and he also has a heart, which may need more nutrients than the body. So I not only need the sunset, but we also need the sunset to give the perception, and the fastest way to give this nutrient is art.
Art allows us to perceive beauty, understand beauty, and pursue beauty. If we only use art as a tool to make money, art will be vulgar.
Vulgar art will no longer have vitality, and perhaps it may be able to gather money quickly at a certain time, under some demagoguery or hype, but in the end, everything will fail in a darkness without beauty.
At present, realist painting and surrealist painting are more popular in China, and the so-called realism of oil painting is not photography at all, especially for master oil painting artists, realism is produced in order to reflect social reality.
Truly realist painting and surrealist painting are not just for the sake of realism, a realistic painting that is realistic only for the sake of "image" is basically meaningless!
Realist painting is a school of painting that arose with the French Revolution, advocating careful observation of the details and appearances of things, opposing exaggerated embellishment, and the original intention was to deeply depict social reality, not likeness!
Realist painters believed in painting a real thing, not an abstract concept. You know? Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon also belongs to realism.
But as an aside, realism, especially surrealism, is too much like a real person, and it is always easy to be judged by the platform as unelegant, and we still have a long way to go in aesthetic education.
Art is a kind of capture, the capture of human emotions, it is the nourishment of the soul, may there always be art, beauty and love in our lives.
