Ever since I was 18 years old, I have always been in a hurry every time I go to Beijing, so I made up my mind to find an opportunity to visit the alleys of the imperial capital to see the exhibition.
It is said that there is a chain of contempt in the photography industry. The large size looks down on the full frame, the full frame looks down on the residual frame, and the residual frame looks down on the mobile phone...


Beijing weather: sunny

With whom: friends

Accommodation: Weiming Hotel Nanluoguxiang Branch

Comments: The location is very good, just next to Wenyu Cheese in Nanluoguxiang, just on the street. Although the room is not big, it has a nice terrace with a small swing and teahouse. The fourth floor is very quiet, although it is in the street, But surprisingly quiet, complete facilities, but the room is slightly small, after all, the prime location, downstairs is Starbucks and snack street.








Day 2: World Horticultural Exposition


Day 3: 798 Art Center

D1: Lost in the old Beijing Hutong

After getting off the plane and checking in at the hotel, take the subway to Lama Temple Station, and start the hutong tour from Wudaoying.

It’s just that Wudaoying seems to be not much different from the antique streets in other cities. There is a row of milk tea shops and Yiwu small commodity stores, and cars are parked in the other row.

Then I turned into Jianchang Hutong, and there was a lot of life, but many banners kept reminding me that every old lady and grandfather who chatted here was probably a billionaire.

Turning from Jianchang Hutong to Guozijian Street, there are many big houses, Dongliang, Fanji, Lost&Found and many other online celebrity shops. A straight man feels embarrassed to go shopping, so he took a photo at the intersection of the street. A nice white photo.

After coming out of Guozijian, I turned into Fangjia Hutong again, and there are very few online celebrity shops here. Many alleys are shaded by trees, and walking inside feels quiet and beautiful.

Soon it was past 4 o'clock, the primary school students were out of school, and the alley was full of children's chirping and laughing, and it felt full of human fireworks.

On the way, I heard a mother asking her daughter how to speak English in a certain scene, and the old lady next to her told her old girlfriend that the children were hungry, so why should they teach English...

Turn around and walk to the non-staple food store on Zhaofu Street. In fact, it is the grocery store where I bought rice, oil and salt when I was a child. The daily life of the old grandpa and the old lady slipped out after staying for less than a minute, and took a photo of their visit at the door.

Coming out of Zhaofu Street is the Bell Tower Square, where many old grandpas and old ladies are playing shuttlecock, playing chess, visiting their grandchildren... Enjoying a happy and energetic retirement life, there are also foreign friends taking pictures with telephoto cannons.

Opposite the Bell Tower is the Drum Tower. The National Day is coming, and the flowers are very beautifully dressed, and there are foreign Internet celebrities taking selfies.

The sun is about to go down, and the shadows of the leaves are printed on the red walls and black tiles, with the rare blue sky in Beijing set off behind.

However, I was hungry and didn't have much mood to appreciate it. The delicacy of old Beijing attracted me to go straight to Ya'er Hutong.

Ya'er Liji's bowl of sheep tripe soup, two siew rao, plus a bottle of Arctic Ocean, it is really wonderful.

{data:{has_more:true,html:

Continue to wander along the Ya'er Hutong, and come to the Yindian Bridge by the Shicha Seaside.

Then, my God, the legendary Houhai Bar Street suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. It was like a row of old antique buildings on the lakeside road of Zhongshan Park in my hometown. The bar with the old disco light show is actually the most responsible place in the imperial capital. Shengming, walk out of the bar street of countless famous singers?

Feeling not full, I turned into Fangjia Hutong again and walked towards South Tongluoguxiang. He kept passing by the gates of mansions worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Originally, I wanted to eat a bowl of authentic noodles at Brick Factory No. 69, but unfortunately there was a crowd of people queuing up, so I took a photo and left.

Passing by the online celebrity shop Wenyu Cheese, I bought a bowl of traditional Palace Cheese. It feels completely different from the ones I bought in other cities. It tastes like water tofu, but it is indeed sweet and delicious.

I checked my phone. I have walked more than 30,000 steps today. Tired and hungry, I rushed to Beixinqiao to order a mutton skewer and Yaoji fried liver. It looked a bit dark, and the taste couldn’t be loved. .

D2: Garden Expo, Chinese Style, World Style

The 2019 World Horticultural Expo will be held in Beijing, and it will end on October 7th. This kind of opportunity that can only be encountered once in a lifetime must be joined in the fun.
In the golden autumn and September, the weather in Beijing is also particularly good. Blue sky and white clouds, green trees and a plastic bird, perfect!

There are also exhibitions of some contemporary artists here, such as this one "Farewell My Concubine".

Yongning Pavilion is the commanding height of the entire Garden Expo. You can see the side of the Zhongyuan Pavilion and an antique residential building below.

It is a natural ecological area from the Yongning Pavilion, mainly to avoid the flow of people, it is very quiet here.

Tired of going around, there are not many people in the International Pavilion. The zenith of the International Pavilion is filled with white petals, echoing the theme of the Expo.

After entering, the characteristics of each country are displayed in the form of silhouettes.

The pavilions of various countries are selling their own special gifts.

In the International Pavilion, there is also a Chinese chrysanthemum exhibition. Cranes and Phoenixes, the horticultural version of Qingming River Scene...

Bonsai version of the fairyland on earth

After coming out of the International Pavilion, I walked into the China Pavilion. There were too many people and flowers, and flowers from different provinces were competing for beauty. This situation is already a little short of words, and the ability to express words is infinitely close to the copywriting of my parents' circle of friends.

The buildings of the Garden Expo are full of sense of design, and it is a blockbuster of modern architecture with just one shot

In the wall of seeds, several small seeds are hidden in each small hole.

This is the oracle bone inscription of art.

Finally, time was running out, so I hurried to the botanical hall.

There is a teamlab exhibition area, which is not a little worse than the exhibition in Guangzhou. Anyway, this is not the focus of the Botanical Museum.

Walking into the botanical hall, you will find that this is a super-large greenhouse that cultivates various plants.

One flower one world, one leaf one bodhi

D3: Cheerful Contemporary Art Exhibition

Living in the cultural desert in the south, I have always been very interested in things like art exhibitions. It is said that the new landmarks in Beijing are already the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, 798...so I moved directly to the 798 Art Center on the third day. In the evening, I went to the countryside to do as the Romans do. It is said that the mutton sent from Inner Mongolia is really delicious.

I slept until 9 o'clock and went out to go shopping. Most of the museums were useless, so I went to the Creative Plaza to take a punch-in photo.

Passing by Zhonger Road, it is really suitable for me who is in Secondary School.

The sculptures on the side of the road are a bit scary.

Young Three Kingdoms is the earliest store opened, and all the characters of the Three Kingdoms are cute.

The huge chimney reminds that this place was a heavy factory not so long ago.

There is also a Diary of a Broken Love History Museum.

There is really a train in the Locomotive Square, and it is said that it was the upstream 0751 that transported fuel back then.

Around 10:00, the exhibition halls opened one after another, and the first one to see was the Big Fire House. The curatorial preface is as follows: "Big Fire House" represents topics related to desire, as well as related thinking about the mental state of modern people.

Along the way, we passed Baochao Alley, Pure Land Alley, Liulisi Alley, Fensiting Alley... It was already a little hard to tell the east, west, north, south, and middle.

Although it was a working day, the Garden Expo was still crowded with people, and those who feared crowds still ran to the gardening town with less crowds. This place mainly displays the characteristic dwellings along the Guishui River in ancient times.

It feels like a student of an art academy got impatient and just scribbled paint on the line draft.

Then turned into the blacksmith camp, tin toys are always boys' favorite, especially this steampunk style.

The next exhibition is steampunk style again, with Kamada Koji and his star baby team. Now Chaowan is also very hyped, and the prices in stores outside the exhibition are not bad, starting at 1K.

I ate at a western restaurant with a glass room at noon

What follows is a human guide to the UCCA. The entry is a pile of half-burned newspapers.

There is also the life course of a brick, the artist held it to watch a Spanish movie, took it on a bus, and finally threw it into the Yangtze River by boat. Why is it a bit like the way vloggers record boring life live broadcasts now, but it’s more boring than vloggers and then it becomes a contemporary art exhibition.

The photo exhibition with foreigners walking around the hutong is normal, but the room next to it that restores the artistic youth in the hutong is very neurotic. In particular, there is an old TV that has been broadcasting an MV from the 80s, the magical melody, and the lyrics are artistic, comfortable for you and me... Booming, there will be no trouble... World peace, rely on you and me... It really has the potential to become a brainwashing network divine comedy.

In particular, I ran back to read the curatorial preface, which was roughly described in this way—in the 1990s, facing the virtual focus and rupture of value... The artist’s reflection and exploration of propositions such as self-identity, femininity, urbanization, mobility, etc., show his Multi-dimensional unfinished cultural landscape...

Out of focus, multiple dimensions, unfinished cultural landscape. . . I know the words, but I don't know what they mean. I said it was very convenient, and I clearly realized that the gap between myself and the art world lies in the ability to fool around with copywriting...

Seeing a series of exhibitions in one area and one deer, it seems that the political consciousness of contemporary artists is also very high.

Walking into the Long March Space Gallery, you will be overwhelmed by the densely packed hundreds of oil paintings. At first, I thought it was an exhibition of many contemporary painters, but later I found out that it was actually Wu Shanzhuan's Today, which later became a festival solo exhibition.

It is also very interesting to study each painting carefully, especially the title of the painting.
Say look up at the sky with five eggs and fifteen fried tomatoes, I use merchandise in merchandise, all starlight dies in the sky

Well, the ability of contemporary artists to elevate their works through titles is really strong.

Next is the overlay relationship and overflow relationship of Zero Art Center. Well, it's the kind of words that I know every word and combine them together and don't know anything. Today is a day of illiteracy.

The last thing I saw was the Ukiyo-e exhibition. It is said that Van Gogh’s letter to his brother mentioned that all my works are based on Ukiyo-e to some extent...

Ukiyo-e mainly uses the method of line drawing and printing plate to show the folk customs of the Edo period.

Of course, the curatorial manifesto is still full of mist...
Those secular eyebrows and eyes sealed by Ukiyo-e,
If you look at it carefully, it will be alive again.
If everything will return to nothingness in the end, let's experience these joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys carefully with the secret perception.
In fact, it has the same meaning as expressing the folk customs of the Edo period, that is, it looks profound, right?

Today, I also learned a bunch of new artistic terms such as blind painting theory, uncertain modification, immeasurable and bearing. I feel that the copywriting of the circle of friends will be contracted for the next whole year.

At the end of the day, the whole person is full of the spirit of contemporary art. In the end, let's have a superb creative roast duck (sticky popping candy...) to fill my mortal stomach.
