Peaceful Heart And Valuable Painting

Looking from the domestic research that, are very many about QI BAISHI's research, but majority is stresses on his artistic achievement, unusual theory books about his artwork market question. China's market economy just started, the calligraphy and painting market is at the babies and infants stage. Contemporary China's calligrapher and painter, blends now in the culture as well as under the market economy tide impact, were facing unprecedented puzzled and the painful choice. The quality of artistic value of calligraphy and painting work perhaps makes the appraisal by the colleague or "the artistic authority" , but its market value could not decide again actually by the authority, calligraphy and painting artwork market value screening, had the same place with the general market principle, and also had the very big difference.As QI BAISHI's descendant, maybe my views are different to other researchers on this area, those information about QI BAISHI hears from ancestry person of father's generation there is not great legendary of artist QI BAISHI since childhood, but is only the head of our big family trying hard to find food for all of us. Just as all professional artists, He also faced with the survival and the artistic question. As a painter with a farmer family background, he makes the simplest words and the motion elaborating his artistic view and outlook on life. Even after being famous , QI BAISHI was very practical in his approach towards life; And his views on art certainly did.not contain any great self sacrifices nor reflected any unselfish deeds towards the fostering of his artistic creations; but only as a common means to an end, for survival of his family and the continuation of his love for art. The artistic creation is one kinds of work, although it has certain particularity, but said essentially, it also is the creation of human society wealth of the spiritual part. The artist also has the survival and the need to develop equally with the common laborer. We cannot regard as the artistic production to be higher than the human other production activity.Art, only then popularizes to the people, can enhance the entire national the artistic level, and lets it develop unceasingly. Says from the market aspect, the artwork collector, mainly divides into following three kinds: One is the special collection organization and the collector, two is the rich merchant social stratum, three is the mid and low earning ordinary buyer, they constitute the present artwork collector community. First two kinds of buyers, perhaps because are the special artistic organization and the expert or has the strong economic potentiality, have the noticeable superiority in the present artwork market. But in the way of the market development, obviously they cannot represent the entire artistic purchase group, because their absolute quantity occupies minority in the entire purchase group, from long-term developing, the mid and low earning group who overwhelming majority to our country population supposed to be the main body of artwork purchase, along with the national income increase, this kind of phenomena can be more obvious.Therefore, we can standard artwork market environment from artist, gallery, auction room, national policy and so on. This not only has the vital role to the artwork development, but also not allows neglecting to the entire national economy promoter action.
