SLEEPING BOY

December 9,we went to WuWeishan’ s sculpture exhibition it was almost about his all artworks, WuWeishan is a famous artist he was major in sculpture, his artworks are both traditional and contemporary. The exhibition was in the Nanjing University. My classmates are all went to the exhibition this is our picture just like a big family.



In the exhibition we have seen a lot of beautiful artworks, like a Girl with Plait
LuXun, Blind Abing etc. But the most famous artwork is sleeping boy. It was really attractive! So I paid more attention to it.



That art work is very small like an egg. The art work is a baby’s face. Baby is very relaxing; he has fallen asleep. We can see the artwork was very delicacy easily. Sleeping boy was sliming, he was free, he looks smart, but he did not know something dirty about human’s relationship. He is simple but he is lovely and friendly. We also can see the sleeping boy was no fret. He just knows how to sleep comfortably. This artwork was small, but it can tell us a lot of things inside.



Maybe the artist Mr. Wu want to tell others that people are from nature, his art work give us some inspirations about people’s beginning when we were babies. Also I think people should be more honest like babies. They never tell lies, they do not be peacockery, but we do all of this things. Maybe we are not as good as babies in that way. What are differences between us and babies? We are different from age only? No! The most big different is situation changes, we have changed by situation but they have not! Maybe artist Wu want to let us know don’t be changed by situation! And we can study from babies they will make a lot of mistakes but they also will do a lot of useful things that we never thing about.



I think that art work is very prefect, because its main idea is very special and educational. It tells us babies and their behavior is most simple and can give us lot of inspiration. The artist used a simple baby to show his feeling. Of course every wonderful art work has its own idea. Sleeping boy tells us a different idea about people’s value; it was another point of view to explain what correct way to live is. We can say this art work has his own ideology, because Wu regard it as a his another mouth. He can use his project to tell us his idea, that is the reason of why we call him as famous artist, why the sleeping boy can get the top award in the world!
After visiting of the exhibition I always thing about the art’s value, art is a language? Art is a skill? Art is a knowledgeable? What is ART?
Maybe art is just art, we can’t regard art as any other things, because it is original, simple, special! ART is unique!


Like this sleeping boy!
