go to an exhibition with Ms.hadley's class


Dec4, 2008thursday, I go to see a sculpture exhibition--------Wu Weishan sculpture exhibition. In exhibition, all sculptures are made by Wu Weishan. On the morning, I go with my classmate, and tern meets my planning teacher Ms.Bartell and Ms.Hadley at the gate of the Tian Jiabing art gallery in Nanjing University.
Wu Weishan is artist. He is art professor of Nanjing University. He is very good at made sculpture. He ever won award the “pangolin prize” of the royal society of British sculptors in 2003, because he sculpture is called “sleeping child”. He has ever received by the queen of the Netherlands and sculptured for her.
Before me into this art gallery, I find many sculptures made by Wu Weishan on the lawn besides of this building. Many of there are famous cultural figures in china, such as Zhen he (the seafarer in china in Ming Dynasty). They are so lively. The big bull sculpture is in front of this art gallery. It is so strange and funny, because the part of stomach of the bull is empty.
When you are into this art galley you may feel there more sculpture is made Chinese cultural figures, so this exhibition maybe can near being a traditional sculpture exhibition. In the exhibition, I just like this sculpture. The title of this artwork is called “amuse you-Ma San Li”. It is also a sculpture by Wu Wei Shan. The artwork is made in 2006. The artwork is made of copper. The artwork uses very powerful and little flexible line and the color are brown. The artwork is a sculpture of a person who is called Ma San Li. Ma San Li wears Chinese traditional robe and his face has a very interesting expression. His mouth is open little. He put up a finger and craned his neck.
This artwork is very funny and interesting. The artwork makes me think of Ma San Li say comic dialogue. I have ever seen Ma San Li says comic dialogue .When he say comic dialogue, he always craned his neck and use strange tone to say comic dialogue and always makes me laugh. I think the artist not only wants us to know who Ma San Li is, but also want us to know he is a good comic dialogue actor.
I like this artwork. I think this artwork is very diverting and lively. The appearance of Ma San Li is a lot like this sculpture. When he says comic dialogue, it is very like this sculpture expression. The expression make Ma San Li like clown and also make me can not help laugh. I think other people who have ever seen Ma San Li’s comic dialogue or he might be feeling this lively. If the people have not seen, they also can feel sculpture’s Art Spirit.
After I see this exhibition, I learn more about china cultural figure and much knowledge about sculpture, such as the sculpture is made of materials. Thank you for my teacher brings me to this exhibition.
