Why do we buy calligraphy and painting art?

俗話說得好，“家中無字畫，必是俗人家。”人喜歡在家里懸掛或者收藏一幅畫，更多的是文化帶來的享受。

As the saying goes, "if there is no calligraphy or painting at home, it must be a vulgar family." Chinese people like to hang or collect a painting at home, which is more the enjoyment brought by culture.

審美上：通過作品，可以愉悅我們的生活。例如將藝術(shù)品作為朋友、親人間的禮物去紀(jì)念彼此生命中重要的一刻，生日或婚禮。而這份禮物將作為一個(gè)永恒的元素，流傳、牽絆著雙方，或是作為傳家寶延續(xù)到將來。

Aesthetically: through works, we can enjoy our life. For example, take art as a gift between friends and relatives to commemorate an important moment in each other's lives, birthdays or weddings. As an eternal element, this gift will spread and bind both sides, or continue to the future as an heirloom.

思想上：由于藝術(shù)是一種表達(dá)方式藝術(shù)家對(duì)世界的看法，當(dāng)我們?cè)谶x擇購(gòu)買的作品時(shí)也間接反映我們?cè)诟鞣矫娴膬r(jià)值觀，以及對(duì)世界的理解。

Ideologically: since art is a way of expression, artists' views on the world also indirectly reflect our values and understanding of the world when we choose to buy works.

那么，如何收藏字畫呢？

So, how to collect calligraphy and painting?

一，如果你在畫廊或者展會(huì)上看到某件藝術(shù)作品，并且瞬間就愛上了它，那么，條件允許，你就馬上直接購(gòu)買；二，你花時(shí)間通過藝術(shù)學(xué)院或美術(shù)館學(xué)習(xí)后在理性選擇購(gòu)買。

1、 If you see a work of art in a gallery or exhibition and instantly fall in love with it, you can buy it directly if conditions permit; 2、 After you spend time studying through an art college or art museum, you choose to buy rationally.

而閱讀藝術(shù)雜志和新聞文章的藝術(shù)部分是一種很好的學(xué)習(xí)方式，它會(huì)讓你去考慮購(gòu)買什么，并在考慮理解什么是你喜歡的作品時(shí)，從而能得到你想買怎樣的藝術(shù)作品。

Reading the art part of art magazines and news articles is a good way to learn. It will let you think about what to buy and understand what works you like, so as to get what works of art you want to buy.

在閱讀時(shí)，即使遇到一些評(píng)論家寫的關(guān)于藝術(shù)文章是你不可理解的，甚不必要的，也不要輕言放棄。因?yàn)?，評(píng)論家的觀點(diǎn)是否對(duì)錯(cuò)，他會(huì)都讓你進(jìn)行思考，而這些思考會(huì)伴隨你的學(xué)習(xí)升華，并一直留在你身邊，幫助你了解自己的生活與想購(gòu)買的作品。

When reading, don't give up even if you encounter some art articles written by critics that are incomprehensible or even unnecessary. Because whether the critic's point of view is right or wrong, he will make you think, and these thoughts will sublimate with your learning and stay with you all the time to help you understand your life and the works you want to buy.

如何收藏字畫？字畫收藏購(gòu)買前的四問

How to collect calligraphy and painting? Four questions before buying calligraphy and painting collection

倫敦大學(xué)近期進(jìn)行了一項(xiàng)科學(xué)調(diào)查，得出的結(jié)論是，欣賞藝術(shù)品與愛上一個(gè)人對(duì)大腦有著相同的影響。調(diào)查中，當(dāng)每個(gè)參與者看著波提切利和莫奈的畫作時(shí)，參與者大腦的血液流向與快感相關(guān)的部分以及欲望區(qū)都增加了10％的數(shù)據(jù)。所以說，當(dāng)你想買一個(gè)藝術(shù)品時(shí)，更重要的因素是你應(yīng)該熱愛它。同時(shí)，為了避免購(gòu)買作品時(shí)全部被主觀感受所引起，您在選擇作品時(shí)也應(yīng)該自問自己以下四個(gè)問題：

A recent scientific survey conducted by the University of London concluded that appreciating art has the same effect on the brain as falling in love with a person. In the survey, when each participant looked at Botticelli's and Monet's paintings, the blood flow to the pleasure related parts and desire areas of the participants' brain increased by 10%. So when you want to buy a work of art, the more important factor is that you should love it. At the same time, in order to avoid being caused by subjective feelings when purchasing works, you should also ask yourself the following four questions when choosing works:

1、這件作品讓我感覺到了什么？

1. What does this work make me feel?

你喜歡它嗎？你討厭它嗎？它會(huì)喚起一種懷舊感嗎？無論是什么感受，這件作品也一定要對(duì)你是有所刺激的，因?yàn)楫?dāng)你將它購(gòu)買后，它會(huì)融入到你的日常生活中，如果你對(duì)它無動(dòng)于衷，那它就失去了藝術(shù)本身的功效。

Do you like it? Do you hate it? Does it evoke a sense of nostalgia? No matter how you feel, this work must also stimulate you, because when you buy it, it will be integrated into your daily life. If you are indifferent to it, it will lose the efficacy of art itself.

2、我喜歡它是什么？顏色，形狀，形式，主題？

2. I like it. What is it? Color, shape, form, theme?

當(dāng)你要?jiǎng)?chuàng)作一個(gè)系列的時(shí)候，需要清楚你喜歡這件作品的哪一點(diǎn)。作為一名買家，在你開始探索每件作品的時(shí)候，記錄下你喜歡它的哪些地方，這將有助于你了解你喜歡什么。

When you want to create a series, you need to know what you like about this work. As a buyer, when you start exploring each work, record what you like about it, which will help you understand what you like.

3、不能確定喜歡它的原因到底是什么?

3. I'm not sure why I like it?

不知道沒有錯(cuò)，但一定要有。因?yàn)橐患髌房梢越o觀者創(chuàng)造出一種感覺，這是有價(jià)值的。

I don't know there's nothing wrong, but there must be. Because a work can create a feeling for the viewer, which is valuable.

4、它是否讓我以不同的方式看待這個(gè)世界？

4. Does it make me see the world differently?

雖然看到一件特定的作品，僅僅感到高興并決定擁有它就足夠了，但藝術(shù)家的作品確實(shí)有一些值得一說的地方，它能讓你審視內(nèi)心，思考你如何看待這個(gè)世界。因?yàn)闆]有人能保證你投資的任何東西會(huì)增值，所以它是否讓你以不同的方式看待這個(gè)世界尤為重要。

Although it is enough to see a specific work and just feel happy and decide to own it, there are some places worth talking about in the artist's work. It can let you look at your heart and think about how you see the world. Because no one can guarantee that anything you invest in will increase in value, it is particularly important whether it allows you to see the world in a different way.

作為投資，新興藝術(shù)類是個(gè)不錯(cuò)選擇

As an investment, emerging art is a good choice

購(gòu)買藝術(shù)品需考慮的因素是你對(duì)作品的愛，因?yàn)樵谕蟮娜兆?，它將陪伴在你左右。而如果以投資為目的去購(gòu)買藝術(shù)品，新興藝術(shù)家的作品算是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的起點(diǎn)。一則由于他們的價(jià)位普遍還在起步階段，較低；二則由于這類藝術(shù)家的作品類型還有相當(dāng)長(zhǎng)的上升空間。

The factor to consider when buying art is your love for the work, because it will accompany you in the future. If you buy art for the purpose of investment, the works of emerging artists are a good starting point. First, because their price is still in its infancy, it is low; Second, there is still a long way to go because of the types of works of such artists.
