He painted 30 human bodies for his daughter, but he didn't sell them for 10 million dollars. Is it a moral problem or a blasphemy against art?

19 14, Liu Haisu set up a human body sketch class at the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, which should be the earliest human body sketch class in China. At first, only boys were recruited, and three years later, American colleges held performance exhibitions. It shows the human movement. Unexpectedly, a headmistress of a girls' school read it and reviled: Liu Haisu is an art traitor and an education thief. There was a lot of public opinion at once, but Liu Haisu disagreed. On the contrary, he encouraged himself to be an art traitor.

1920 On July 20th, Liu Haisu hired a female model, Chen Xiaojun. Naked women first appeared among painters. This time, it caused a greater sensation. Some people even wrote to Jiangsu Education Association, demanding that models be prohibited from sketching. It was a sensation at that time, but now, human body sketch is a very common thing. But what if the sketch artist and the model are father and daughter?

Such a thing did happen in the history of contemporary art. My father's name is Li Zhuangping and my daughter's name is Qin Li. Father and daughter are both painters. When Li Zhuangping was young, he did many different things, such as farmers, workers, cadres and teachers. But his favorite is painting, which is his favorite occupation in his life, so he trained his daughter to be a painter. After decades of painstaking research, around 2008, he was nearly sixty years old.

I accidentally thought of a theme that the whole world cares about, that is, man and nature, man and animals, and then I thought of Shan Gui of Qu Yuan and the goddess of Guo Moruo. The combination is a beautiful, pure and kind goddess, but it is difficult to choose an image. After all, words cannot be directly used as the object of creation. Do you want to create a painting, or do you want to find a prototype? Li Zhuangping suddenly found her daughter suitable. In his eyes, his daughter is beautiful, kind and pure, and everyone who sees her just wants to care for her.

Qin Li has a good appearance and figure. Earlier when she was studying, some classmates suggested that she should also be a model, but she didn't have the courage. But my father is different. In her heart, her father has always been an upright man, which makes her feel safe. Moreover, she is also engaged in oil painting. In Qin Li's view, being a mannequin for his father is a dedication to art. So when Li Zhuangping raised this possibility, Qin Li didn't hesitate too much, and her mother didn't object.

When creating, both sides don't feel embarrassed, just like bathing their daughters when they were young. On the other hand, Li Zhuangping's lover said that she would be grateful, and she envied her daughter for leaving her youth in such a beautiful way. Objectively speaking, the series of Shan Gui, the goddess of the East, is really beautiful, but it has caused public outcry because of the identities of the two creators. Some netizens and ethical experts believe that it is inappropriate for a daughter to be a nude model for her father.

First of all, they are father and daughter, so the ethical point of view must be the first, but art is behind. In addition, these works will be exhibited, and Li Zhuangping also said that these values will never be sold privately. Then this extends from private ethics to social scope, and the behavior of Li Zhuangping's father and daughter undoubtedly does not conform to the ethical norms and has brought negative effects. Of course, some people think that there is nothing wrong with what Li Zhuangping's father and daughter did. Art is pure, and their father and daughter's paintings will not make people feel erotic.

Li Yinhe, a famous sociologist, pointed out that feeling uncomfortable is only caused by traditional ideas. In fact, nothing happened except a group of beautiful paintings. Another art critic thinks that their behavior is worthy of respect, because they have broken through the barriers of ethics and contributed to the development of art, and there are different opinions. Just from different angles, there will be different views. what do you think?
