In the hotel room, Fang Yi took a shower and carefully dried the water on his body. He stood by the bed and put on his shirt. Then, after hanging a whole set of clothes on his body, he finally buckled the silver watch on his wrist.
Then I straightened my hair in front of the mirror.
At this time, Beronica was sitting in front of the mirror wearing a bathrobe and blowing her hair.
"How's it going?" Fang Yi pulled his left suit sleeve and asked Beronica.
Beronica turned off the hair dryer, turned to look at Fang Yi, then stretched out her finger to draw a circle to signal her boyfriend to turn in a circle, waited for Fang Yi to finish turning, stood up from the stool and walked to her boyfriend's side
Beside him, he helped Fang Yi rearrange his collar.
Then seeing that there was nothing to sort out, he took two steps back and looked at his boyfriend in a suit and said, "He's so handsome! He's ready to walk on the catwalk. You can consider it for the next Paris Fashion Week!".
"If a handmade suit of more than 3,000 euros can't make me look classy, I'll ask the Italian to refund the money!" After hearing what Beronica said, Fang Yi said with a smile.
"Okay! He's quite handsome!" Beronica walked back to Fang Yi and stretched out her hands to pinch Fang Yi's cheeks. This action made Fang Yi's mouth wrinkle into a circle.
Beronica tapped Fang Yi's lips with her lips: "There is no unacceptable taste, and I have passed the test in this aspect! You stay here for a while while I dress up!" After saying that, he turned around and returned.
In front of the mirror, I started to apply foundation on my face, and then curled my eyelashes.
After standing next to his girlfriend for two or three minutes, Fang Yi felt a little bored while touching the bottles and jars his girlfriend used for makeup. Thinking that his friends didn't know how they would look in suits, he opened his mouth and said, "I'm going to see Keshma."
How are you guys doing?" After saying that, he looked at Beronica and nodded and walked out of his room. Then he walked towards the door of Keshma's room next door.
I knocked on the door and found no one answered. I walked to the opposite room and knocked until I reached Artur's room. Then I heard a voice from inside: "Wait!".
"Hoo! So everyone is here!" Fang Yi said as he looked at the four friends sitting in the room. After speaking, he looked at his friends' current outfits for a minute and burst into laughter.
Fang Yi laughed, and the four Keshimas also laughed one after another. Before this, no one had seen each other wearing suits. Now everyone appears in front of their friends in suits and ties. Of course
Let five people feel fresh, and everyone will have a big change.
As newcomers to the American art market, it is impossible for Fang Yiwu to do as he pleases as someone of Lucien Freud's level, because he is a master, and he is a master whose works cost tens of millions of dollars.
They dress whatever they want, even if they wear a suit on top and trousers on bottom. When it comes to reports, they look like masters, showing their uninhibited style. If the five newcomers dress like this, I'm afraid that in a few days there will be an art magazine saying that the five of them are
If you are a bit neurotic, some critics will speak out loud.
If you don't have that status, don't do anything extraordinary. Now you are wearing formal clothes. It shows the respect you deserve for the art critics, magazine reporters and customers who have the potential to purchase paintings. From a certain
On the one hand, these people are the parents who provide food and clothing. They should dress up better, be kinder, and be more enthusiastic. This sentence has been on Zou Heming's lips since the five of them arrived in New York.
Of course, it’s formal wear. It won’t be as exaggerated as the Oscar red carpet, with male stars wearing suits and ties, and female stars showing off their beautiful backs, see-through outfits, etc. Even though it’s formal wear, don’t be too formal.
Being too formal is a bit too much. After all, this is an art exhibition. If you are wearing a bow tie and a white shirt, there is a chance that a customer will hand you an empty wine glass and say thank you! Treat you like a waiter.
Just like Fang Yi and the others now, wearing handmade suits and dark shirts with one button unbuttoned, they look more natural and casual without appearing too casual. This is what you need to see the exhibition, and you can't
Don't be too restrained, but don't be too relaxed.
For Europeans and Americans, going to an art exhibition, especially an art exhibition of a certain level, is something that shows a little bit of personal accomplishment and taste. It is considered a formal occasion and is not something that can be taken lightly.
Artur took a breath and said: "I was thinking about how to explain my work to others. The thought of facing a magazine reporter made me very nervous!".
"Relax, my friend!" Anders patted Artur's shoulder gently: "Don't be afraid, the magazine reporter will not put you in storage just because you gave a bad answer.
In the closet! Even if we lock you in, we will release you as soon as possible."
"Hahaha!" A burst of laughter rang in the room.
This art exhibition in New York is quite important. Not only "American Art" magazine was present, but also "American Artist", "Art News" and so on. The scene is really not too small, it can be said to be quite enough for the five newcomers.
pomp.
The biggest contributors behind this grand display are Zou Heming's gallery and the professional curatorial company. The five of them even have a list on hand with a brief introduction to some collectors who may be interested in their works.
"Everyone is a little nervous!" Keshima turned to look at Artur and said: "In this period of time, so many things in life have happened to us for the first time, and the first time we have to wear such an expensive suit."
Having said this, he pulled on his clothes and said: "It's my first time to stay in such a good hotel, and I'm about to have my first art exhibition in my life! But, relax, we can do it!".
Rude nodded and said, "Yes, we can do it, guys, Doit!".
Fang Yi was also a little nervous. This was also his first time standing in the European and American oil painting market, waiting for the test of the market. Now according to Zou Heming's plan, five works were aimed at the low-end art market;
It has now officially entered the mid-range threshold. The psychological selling price of a painting is more than 200,000 US dollars, which can be regarded as just entering the mid-range. The specific market reaction. We still don’t know, we have to wait for the end of the national exhibition. By selling
How many works have you seen to know?
For the five of them, this is like an exam, but the one who marks the exam is not the teacher, but the market.
"It's almost time, I'll go back and see if Beronica is dressed up!" Fang Yi waved to his friends and walked out of the room.
After returning to his room, Fang Yi just opened the door and saw that Bellonica was fully dressed.
Very beautiful! Fang Yi gave Bellonica a thumbs up and praised her.
Now Beronica is wearing a black knee-length skirt, the hem of the skirt is pulled diagonally from the middle of the left thigh to the right calf, solemn yet energetic. The deep V collar on the chest reveals a little bit of two groups of white and black
The skirt restrains the waist and looks very slender, and the long skirt also wraps the plump buttocks, showing off the attractive figure.
A string of pearl necklaces hung around her neck. Her waterfall-like hair was curled in large brown waves, hanging down on her right chest. Several small pearls clustered around a large pearl earring were exposed on the left earlobe. Both hands
Now he is holding a small black leather handbag the size of a notebook and placing it in front of his lower abdomen. He is looking at Fang Yi with a smile on his face.
"Is it beautiful?" Beronica looked at Fang Yi and asked.
"Great!" Fang Yi had to say one more thing, and then added without thinking: "When you come back at night, wear this. Let me take it off!".
"Haha!" Beronica laughed softly, then walked to Fang Yi's side, reached out and took Fang Yi's arm: "It's getting late, let's go!".
Fang Yi gently put his hand on his girlfriend's waist and took Beronica out of the door.
"Phew!" As soon as the two of them went out, Keshima and others also went out. Anders looked at Beronica next to Fang Yi and whistled involuntarily.
Walking next to Beronica, Anders took one of Beronica's hands, kissed it gently and said: "Beautiful lady, I know a good restaurant in New York, but I don't know
Would you be honored to invite you to dinner?".
Fang Yi slapped Anders' hand away: "Save this trick for later. Maybe there is a female reporter from a magazine or something, and you can use it again!".
Rude smiled after hearing this and said: "Yes, if something like this happens, you have to behave well from tonight to tomorrow morning. If people are satisfied, mention us more. If they are not satisfied, don't mention us.
Four! Just be scolded yourself, don’t drag us into the water!”.
"Okay, friends, stop making trouble! Get down quickly!" Keshma looked at the watch on his hand: "The car is already waiting for us downstairs!".
"Go down, go down!" Anders nodded and said.
The six of them walked towards the elevator together.
When we got downstairs, the car from the car rental agency had already arrived. When the uniformed driver saw a few people coming down, he immediately got out of the car and helped open the door.
They got into the car together, and the six of them sat facing each other, chatting quietly, and let the car take them towards the exhibition hall.
Of course, the newcomers are not yet qualified to use the Metropolitan Museum's exhibition hall. They are now renting an exhibition hall in a building not far from Central Park, with a large terrace of more than 200 square meters.
After getting out of the car, Fang Yi buttoned up the buttons that had been undone in the car, and walked towards the upstairs exhibition hall with Beronica and his friends.
When we arrived upstairs, the people from the curatorial company were making final preparations.
"Friends, you are really energetic today! Are you all ready?" Zou Heming saw the six people walking in and asked as he greeted them with a smile.
"Ready!" Anders said.
Zou Heming laughed twice after hearing this, and the others started chatting.
Fang Yi turned around and looked at the venue. The works of himself and his friends were hung on the light blue wall at a distance of about one and a half meters apart. In the middle of the entire exhibition hall, there were five light blue simple walls more than two meters high.
There are also works hanging on the wall, with strong and beautiful colors that jump out on the paintings. When these works are hung together, the magnificent momentum of the colors is even more revealed.
These works, which Fang Yi and the five people spent several months completing, are hanging quietly on the wall, waiting for the reporters and collectors who are about to arrive, waiting for them to evaluate their current value!
