百年前,南通是一座让动荡游离的国人看得到希望的城市;如今,南通更是一座让人实现梦想的城市。徜徉在园林与古建的怀抱下,寻找古老而濒危的南通木版年画,令人灵气满盈。说起年画,这一中国濒危艺术遗产,研究显示,中国现存年画产地仅十多处,其中大部分地区仅一两位老艺人在印制年画,老艺人一走,年画就会断流。以前也无“非物质文化遗产”这一归属保护。但是,各地残存的年画艺术却等待保护和寻踪。年画产自民间,但对于自命清高的达官们,可能不会喜欢民间年画的,有人会说是匠气,或是带有俗气,但每幅画带来的传统底蕴却是不可估量的,这是值得人们关注和传承的老祖宗的文化意味,这其中有人的故事、年画的故事。南通作为靠近上海的核心区域,也是濒危年画产地之一,借此时节,一起谈谈。 Hundreds of years ago, Nantong was a city where hopeless people of turmoil could see their hope. Nowadays, Nantong is even more a city where people can realize their dreams. Under the embrace of the garden and ancient buildings, Wan Nai looks for the ancient and endangered Nantong woodcut pictures. Speaking of New Year Pictures, an endangered Chinese art heritage, studies show that there are only a dozen of New Year pictures available in China, of which only a dozen or two of the old artists in most areas print New Year paintings. In the past there was no “intangible cultural heritage ” this attribution protection. However, the art of the New Year’s paintings surviving all over the world is waiting for protection and tracing. The New Year pictures are produced by the private sector. However, those who rank themselves upright may not like the New Year pictures. Some people say that they are polite or cheesy but the traditional heritage of each painting is incalculable. It is the cultural meaning of our ancestors worthy of attention and inheritance. Some of them are stories of people and pictures of New Year paintings. Nantong as the core area close to Shanghai, but also one of the birthplace of endangered New Year pictures, to take this time to talk together.
