“网课已开展一周有余，疫情让我们重启“线上学习”模式，然而WLSA学子的艺术创意却丝毫没受影响！为了带大家一起感受居家的点滴和艺术的美好，WLSA艺术组决定举办“线上艺术节”。我们会不定期和大家分享一些艺术生的作品。本次，我们将呈现名画模仿大赛（简易版）供大家欣赏！”
We have been doing online learning for more than one week now, in order to bring everyone closer to the art scene while staying distant, WLSA art department decided to hold a virtual art festival. From time to time, we will share some brilliant artworks from our art students. To kick off the show, let's turn our eyes to the (poor man's version) masterpiece lookalike competition brought to you by G12 art students in quarantine last semester!"

NO.1《头顶面包的女子》 巴勃罗·毕加索
The Bread Carrier

NO.2《最后的晚餐》
列奥纳多·达·芬奇
The Last Supper
by Leonardo da Vinci
Jenny Zhu G12 Kappa
《最后的晚餐》是意大利艺术家列奥纳多·达·芬奇根据《圣经》中耶稣和十二使徒的最后晚餐创作的。在画面中，人物的恐惧、愤怒、怀疑、表情以及手势、眼神和行为都被刻画得淋漓尽致。这次的模仿让我体会到了达芬奇画技的高超和他对人物深刻的观察和描绘。
The Last Supper was created by Italian artist Leonardo Da Vinci, based on the last supper of Jesus and the Twelve Apostles in the Bible. In the picture, the characters' fright, anger, doubt, and expression, as well as gestures, eyes and behavior, are exquisitely portrayed.

NO.3《发誓复仇》弗朗西斯科·海耶兹
Vengeance is Sworn
by Francesco Hayez
Lisa Pan G12 Theta
这幅作品名为《Vengeance is Sworn》，由十九世纪意大利的浪漫主义画家Francesco Hayez 于1851年完成，属于《Love And Revenge》的三联画中的一副，描绘了一个爱恨情仇的故事。画面左边的女主人公Maria被右侧的Rachele正在告诉她的事情所吸引。Rachele拿着一封信，向Maria解释她的情人是如何对她不忠的，并且Rachele恳请Maria向当局的州调查官谴责此人，也就是复仇。
作者用一张信纸讲述出这幅画的戏剧冲突，即不忠的爱人。Maria摸了摸Rachele的手，好像要把它推开，而Rachele抓住玛丽亚的肩膀，在动作之间完成了一个循环，让人怀疑失踪第三方的中心地位。Maria 和 Rachele 所佩戴的黑色面具叫做moretta，在十八世纪的威尼斯非常流行，也是一种调情工具。戴上和摘下的面具将其从单纯的艺术画作转换为戏剧，隐晦地将色情的阴谋化为一种表演。演员们的真实感受淹没在一套脚本化的手势和历史化的服装之下，形成了一个谜。
我决定放大作品的情感部分，一人分饰两角，通过妆容和光影的调整来展现出女主Maria在听到消息后的诧异，失望与仇恨。同时我用家里的台阶和油画作为背景。
希望你能喜欢我的作品，也欢迎听到更多你对作品的理解。
The work was named as Vengeance is Sworn, it was made by 19th-century Italian romantic painter Francesco Hayez. He finished it in 1851 and put it into a triptych called Love and Revenge. Maria, the protagonist on the left, is shocked by what Rachele, the protagonist on the left, is telling her. Rachele holds a note explaining to Maria how her lover has been unfaithful to her, and Rachele suggests Maria to denounce him to the State inquisitors for revenge.
A note structures the narrative drama of the painting, the unfaithful beloved. Maria touches Rachele’s hand as if to push it away, while Rachele clutches Maria’s shoulder, completing a circuit between the women that calls into question the centrality of the missing third party. The black masks Maria and Rachele wear, called Moretta, were popular in eighteenth-century Venice as a means of flirting. Masking and unmasking shift the drama from the realm of the quotidian into theater, implicitly problematizing the erotic intrigue as a performance. The true feelings of the actors, submerged beneath a set of scripted gestures and historicizing costumes, remain a mystery.
I decided to play both roles myself and express hatred through makeup and editing of the light. I matched similar dresses, replaced the background with the stairs in my neighborhood and part of the painting at home.
So, what do you think of my work, or is there any other understanding of this painting?

NO.4《雅各布•科内利兹•范•奥斯特萨宁
画他妻子的肖像》德克•雅各布斯
Jacob Cornelisz. van Oostsanen
Painting a Portrait of His Wife
by Dirck Jacobsz
Charlotte Chen G12 Kappa
一位艺术家站在画架前画肖像。他向外看去，大概是在看他画的那个女人。然而，经过进一步的考虑，很明显，画家和被画者都在向外凝视，但注视着谁呢？最初打算让谁看这幅画？德克•雅各布斯（Dirck Jacobsz）在这里描绘了他已故的父亲雅各布•科内利兹•范•奥斯特萨宁（Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanan，约1472-1533年），也是一位画家。画中的画显示了Jacobsz的母亲，她在丈夫去世几年后去世，大概在这一系列画作完成前后。这幅非同寻常的双画像似乎是儿子的个人纪念，他本可以作为画家、观众和父母“关注”的对象出现在展板前。这幅画可能也曾被公开摆放在作者父母的坟墓上方。
我在这幅画里一个人同时扮演了两个角色，使用photoshop的方法让男人，女人，背景和画框，三个分开拍摄的照片融合成一副画。把人物从一副画剪切出来放到另一副画上面并不简单，因为边框需要用橡皮擦一点点擦掉，还需要注意头发丝等细节。最后我调整了了一下光影，这幅画才算完成。
An artist stands before his easel, painting a portrait. He looks out, presumably at the woman whose likeness he is painting. Yet on further consideration it becomes apparent that both the painter and the painted gaze out, but at whom? Who was originally intended to view this painting? Dirck Jacobsz here depicted his deceased father, Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen (about 1472-1533), also a painter. The painting within the painting shows Jacobsz’s mother, who died some years after her husband, possibly around the time this panel was painted. This unusual double portrait seems to be a kind of personal memorial by the son, who would have been positioned before the panel as painter, viewer, and object of his parents’ “attention.” The picture may also have served a more public function, since it possibly was installed above the couples’ grave.
In this painting, a person plays two roles at the same time. I use Photoshop to integrate three separate photos of man, woman, background and frame into one picture. It is not easy to cut characters from one picture and put them on another, because the frame needs to be wiped off a little with an eraser, and attention should be paid to hair and other details. Finally, adjust my light and shadow to finish the painting.

NO.5《拿烟斗的男孩》巴勃罗·毕加索
Garcon a la Pipe
by Pablo Picasso
Krista Zhang G12 Delta
1905年，在搬到蒙马特地区后不久后，毕加索创作了《拿烟斗的男孩》。这幅“玫瑰时期”的画作描绘了一名头戴花圈，手拿烟斗的巴黎男孩。该作品被认为是毕加索职业生涯早期最重要的作品之一，体现了其是如何从古典技巧向当代风格进行转变的。
毕加索在这幅画中触及了青春之美，这与他当时的肖像画不同。欢快的赭色和粉色背景，花朵与男孩沉思的表情相结合，奇迹般地表达了一个青少年模特的女性气质和男性气质。姿势的元素也不确定，男孩的左臂被放置在一个不舒服，不自然的位置。
早在《阿维尼翁的少女》(Les Demoiselles d’avignon)这一开创性的立体主义作品问世前两年，毕加索便已经开始渴望摆脱写实描绘，开始运用更抽象的风格进行作画。感想就是毕加索打光真好看，以及感觉p图比化妆轻松多了。
Garcon a la Pipe was produced in Paris shortly after Picasso had moved into the district of Montmartre. Picasso painted this portrait of a Parisian boy wearing a wreath of flowers and holding a pipe in 1905, during his so-called Rose period.
It is seen as one of the most significant works from the early development of his career and shows how early Picasso moved into contemporary styles having initially studied classical art techniques.
Picasso touched on the beauty of youth in this painting which was out of character for his portraits of around this time. Cheerful ochre and pink palette of the background and the flowers in combination with the boy’s contemplative expression miraculously express both femininity and masculinity of a teenage model. Elements of the pose are also inconclusive as to his thoughts behind the work, whilst the left arm is placed in an uncomfortable, unnatural position.
Painted only two years before the groundbreaking Cubist work Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, Garcon a la Pipe already shows early signs of Picasso’s aspiration to step away from the literary depiction and towards more abstract stylization using flat surfaces.

NO.6《呐喊》爱德华·蒙克
The Scream
by Edvard Munch
Rex Geng, Austin Zeng, Chad Gu G12 Eta
我们在《呐喊》中增加了更多多样化、现代性的故事情节，展示了当今社会人们的巨大压力，分别是银行贷款、高利贷、人种歧视、成绩差和人身安全的威胁。为了还原原作，我们在拍摄之后还使用了photoshop扭曲人物的面部表情和背景环境，以展现人物的心理压力。
We decide to cosplay The Scream, from Edvard Munch. This painting is a great representation of repression and stress. Today's society places huge amount of pressure on people in their daily life. In our project, we recreated the classic painting by performing the theme of the protagonist screaming while adding more diverse and modern story lines. We will produce a total number of 4 themes, which are respectively caused by bank loans and debt collection from usury; gangsters' threaten towards Asian people; close deadlines and poor grades, and horror to be shot. After the initial shooting, we use photoshop software to distort the expressions on characters’ face and background environment in order to mimic the original.
