피카소 넘는 4세 천재화가 탄생
뉴욕서 개인전 열어
4세 천재 화가소녀가 등장해 화제를 모으고 있다.
뛰어난 컬러감과 성인 못지않은 붓터칭 기교,
확고한 자신만의 작품세계로 예술계에서
또 한명의 영재 화가로 인정받고 있다.
얼마 전 홍콩에서 열린 국제경매에서는 안드레의 그림 한 점이
2만4000 달러(한화 약 2700만원)에 팔려 주위를 놀라게 하고
경매 최고가 개인기록을 달성하기도 했다.
<서울신문 나우뉴스>
예술시장에서 안드레 그림의 가치는 5000~1만 달러
(540만~1080만원)선. 아직 네살 밖에 되지 않은 소녀의
작품인 것을 고려하면 높은 가격이 아닐 수 없다.
안드레가 그림을 그리기 시작한 것은 걷기 무렵인 11개월 때.
두살 때부터는 직접 전시회를 보며 자신의 작품세계를 구축해 갔다.
천재 화가소녀의 부모는 "안드레는 그림을 그릴 때 모든 컬러를
직접 선택한다. 매우 단호하게 결정을 내린다."면서
"옆에서 컬러 선택에 간섭하면 화를 내기 일쑤"라고 말했다.
현지 언론은 "안드레는 이미 피카소나 잭슨 폴락을 잇는
천재 예술가들과 비교될 만큼 엄청난
재능을 가졌다."고 보도했다.
한편 호주 뿐 아니라 전 세계 예술계를 들썩이게 한 안드레는
6월 26일까지 뉴욕 아고라 갤러리에서 최초로
개인전을 가졌다

Aelita Andre, four-year-old prodigy painter
By Elizabeth Flock/The Washington Post
(Screengrab from youtube.com) Aelita Andre is four years old.
She’s also a Russian abstract painter who has already been
compared to Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali,
and Jackson Pollack.
Art critics have praised her work for its use of the techniques of
“automatism” and “accidentalism,” branches of surrealist art.
She had her first show when she was one year old
and has another show in New York on June 4.
But what’s also admirable about Andre as a child prodigy is
that it doesn’t appear that she’s being forced to
do something she doesn’t love,like a tennis star
who burns out by 14.
Nor is she filled with anxiety while plying her craft,
like chess champion Bobby Fischer,
who later became known for his angry outburts.
Anyone who watches Andre paint can tell she loves
to fling the colors onto the canvas.
She loves to tell stories while she works.
She even periodically yells “kist, kist!”
(the Russian word for paintbrush).
