What happened to Wang Guiquan?

On May 2 1 day, Wang Chengyun, a teacher of Chengdu Chuanyin Academy of Fine Arts, with more than 20 students, held an exhibition of contemporary art works called "Experimental Space" in Nanjing Museum. Among them, Wang Guiquan, a 22-year-old sophomore majoring in oil painting at Chengdu Academy of Fine Arts in Chuanyin, took a group of close-up photos of women's lower body from different angles, which caused great controversy in the local area.

Wang Guiquan, the photographer of this group of works, said in an audience consultation before shooting: "It's actually very simple. At first, I just wanted to see what I looked like in the mirror. " Teacher Wang Chengyun, the general planner of the art exhibition, laughed and said in an interview with the local media: "If you watch more, you will get used to it."

Yesterday afternoon, the reporter came to Chengdu Academy of Fine Arts in Chuanyin. The school is very cautious about this matter. Zhang Zheng, director of the Academic Affairs Office, finally accepted a telephone interview with reporters, saying that the art exhibition was "their personal behavior, and the school could not evaluate it". But he added: "Wang Guiquan is an independent artistic creator, and we respect her creative attitude and expression."

At 5pm yesterday, a number of students the reporter met in Chengdu Academy of Fine Arts in Chuanyin said that they had seen reports about Wang Guiquan's photographic works on the Internet. They were very calm and thought that Wang Guiquan's own artistic creation should be respected. However, some female students think that Wang Guiquan's courage is commendable. "Not everyone has the courage to devote themselves to art."

Zhou Chunya, a famous painter, was interviewed by telephone. He said he didn't know about the art exhibition, so it was not convenient to comment. He finally said: "I don't want to comment even if I understand the work."

It is understood that, in addition to some sculptures and pictures, many of the works exhibited in this "Modern Art Exhibition of Experimental Space" express their themes by depicting the human reproductive organs and the relationship between men and women, and their consciousness is bold and avant-garde. About Wang Guiquan's nakedness

Wang Chengyun, a teacher from Chengdu Academy of Fine Arts, and more than 20 of his students held an exhibition of contemporary art works called "Experimental Space" in Nanjing Museum. Among them, Wang Guiquan's nakedness became the focus of this exhibition. Nanjing museum-art exhibition-girl's lower body, stringing these three keywords together will inevitably attract people's attention. Scholars or migrant workers who know or don't know art are curious about this art exhibition. It seems that this is really appealing to all tastes.

For works of art, I have different appreciation abilities, different appreciation angles and different functions. In the face of this contemporary art exhibition, I consciously position myself as not knowing the flow of art, so I can't discuss these works from the artistic point of view. However, after extensive publicity by TV, newspapers and other media, the discussion of art exhibitions is no longer just an art category. Wang Guiquan stood out from more than 20 students. It was she who took a selfie of her private parts, and cried from the first day to the next, which became the focus of media attention and naturally attracted the attention of the audience. The so-called degree of concern is different, and the angle is also different. I don't know what the high-level officials are talking about. For an ordinary person like me, the first thing I care about is what the private parts become art, and the second thing I care about is how the girl with the private parts become artistic tears.

Pressure, too much pressure.

That's for sure. Artists are under pressure that we can't understand. Where does the pressure come from? All kinds of comments, written here, I feel that I have unconsciously become the pressure source of this girl with artistic lower body, maybe, maybe not.

It's a little difficult to write here. Why do you always stare at girls' nakedness? What is wrong with me? But think about it. Before me, this lower body first influenced the media, and then the media influenced me. I have many ideas and questions, or become interested. It seems that works of art have a great influence on people, whether you understand it or not, but what kind of influence does this girl's lower body have on me?

In fact, the lower body or upper body is only a part of the body. Objectively speaking, taking pictures of people can be art, and taking pictures of things that don't belong to art is theoretically possible. What's more, we usually take pictures of flowers and plants, which are actually the reproductive systems of plants. Therefore, it seems that we can't deny artistry just because it is the lower body.

I don't talk much about art. For art, we often say, is it beautiful? So, does Wang Guiquan's lower body look good? It's troublesome, but it can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Personally, I think the lower body is ugly, but I like to look at human organs, because after human beings evolved into modern people, people began to wear clothes, to avoid the cold and to hide their shame. The rest of the apes really have nothing to cover. They would rather leave the rest exposed and find some leaves to cover their lower bodies. That's what people do. The more they block it, the more they want to see it. That thing is almost the same, but the same kind is about the same size.

So what? Roughly the same still does not affect nudity as an art, so it does not affect the naked owner to become a figure of media attention. This phenomenon is very strange to me. Not to mention the world, China has a population of more than one billion, and more than one billion people have private parts, which are nothing more than male bodies and female bodies, plus a transgender naked at most. What makes this private part an art? This is very confusing.

Maybe my artistic accomplishment is not enough. Isn't there billions of people in the human body? Isn't it art? Of course, Premier Zhou has always been concerned about and supported whether China art circles could draw human bodies in those days. It seems that the fact that Wang Guiquan has too many lower bodies can't be a reason why she can't be a work of art. Whether her lower body can stand out from many lower bodies and become an art may depend on the conception of performance, artistic expression or rich connotation. Therefore, many photos of the lower body are pornographic because of their vulgar expression, and now society is tolerant. Wang Guiquan's lower body is on display in Nanjing Museum. Although he was once banned for being suspected of pornography, it only became an episode of this modern art exhibition. Those who ban art exhibitions are undoubtedly a stumbling block to not understanding art and will not stop the development and progress of art.

I really don't understand art, which doesn't seem to serve people like me. Satisfying some selfish desires may be far-fetched, and many people may have been to pornographic websites. This truth seems to be educating us that those pornographic private parts are vulgar and it is immoral to look at pornographic pictures. Wang Guiquan's private parts are contemporary art, so we can see them without peeping, and even show our artistic taste. Of course, some people watch and some people don't. Some people praise, some criticize, some watch, some watch after scolding, some don't watch in the dark, no problem, it's normal, a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend. For us ordinary people, we can only talk about it after dinner as gossip, and occasionally add a sentence before chatting: what's in today's newspaper, what's on TV at night, untidy hair and so on.
