"Only This Green" I like it as soon as I hear the name. It is fresh and elegant, simple and neat, and it also allows people to have some time to think.
This is a dance for the 2022 Year of the Tiger Spring Festival Gala, derived from "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" by Wang Ximeng, an eighteen-year-old Northern Song Dynasty painter.
Basically I have not watched the Spring Festival Gala in recent years. In this era of media overflow, there are too many good programs to watch. Although the Spring Festival Gala was playing, I didn’t pay much attention to it. It was just a lively celebration of the New Year. I was walking on the treadmill, and there was a burst of melodious classical music in my ears. I turned back and glanced at the TV. I was attracted by a beautiful Chinese-style picture, with green waist, high peak bun, distant mountain eyebrows, and green peaks in the picture. The green water looms, the dancer's sharp eyebrows, crimson lips and high bun, and neatly swung sleeves disappear into the painting. . . . The dancers use their gorgeous bodies to outline the poetic and imaginary boundless mountains and rivers, and narrate Chinese classical legends. The poetic drama is based on the outline of chapters such as "unrolling scrolls, asking about seal scripts, singing silk, looking for stones, learning brushes, tempering ink, and painting". It uses elegant and beautiful Chinese aesthetics to create a dream that spans thousands of years, and uses the landscape and humanistic style to praise the thousands of miles of the motherland. , it is worth watching the dance with your heart and feeling that era with your heart.
From such a wonderful work as "Only Green", the audience can re-understand the beauty of craftsmanship and re-perceive the beauty of tradition. This is also a process of understanding the Chinese context and enhancing cultural confidence, and China The repeated presentation of wind programs is inseparable from the needs of the times for the dissemination of traditional culture. The contents of these programs are all based on my country's long history and splendid civilization. They can lead the audience to appreciate the breadth and depth of Chinese culture, enhance our cultural centripetal force, and inspire To bring out more people's cultural self-confidence, our cultural self-confidence has roots, and this root is the historical accumulation of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. By understanding the cultural confidence behind literary and artistic innovation, we will be able to create more literary and artistic masterpieces, bringing alive the cultural relics collected in museums, the heritage displayed on the vast land, and the words written in ancient books, so that the flowers of tradition will last forever. Be undefeated and let the cultural confidence stand firm.
"Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is a large turquoise silk book, about 12 meters long and 50 centimeters wide, with a vast and extraordinary momentum. The entire scroll features landscapes far and near, with a broad momentum, including cottages, markets, fishing boats, bridges, waterwheels, and trees and birds. The brushwork and ink are meticulous and well-positioned; the entire scroll is repainted in green and green to express the beauty of the mountains and rivers. The upper level is full of mountains and winding mountains. In the picture, the complex trees, villages, boats, bridges, towers, palaces, and various figures are arranged in an orderly manner. In the painting, the mountain rocks are first roughened with ink, and then heavily colored with green and green. The tops of the mountains are dyed with azurite green to show the green mountains. The river outlines water patterns, which contrast with the boneless colors. The whole picture is both majestic and majestic as well as delicate and exquisite. It is a giant masterpiece among green landscape paintings.
What is even more surprising is that "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was actually written by an 18-year-old genius boy - Wang Ximeng of the Northern Song Dynasty. This is also his only work handed down from generation to generation. Because Wang Ximeng died when he was in his 20s, there are very few historical materials about him. He is the only talented young man in the history of Chinese painting who is famous for his painting. It is said that this painting was instructed by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty. "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was later collected by Cai Jing, the prime minister at the time. He recorded the collection on it. His experience of entering the Hanlin Academy of Calligraphy and Painting, "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was later kept in the palace during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty and is now preserved in the Palace Museum in Beijing.
It is also a painting of the Northern Song Dynasty. I am reminded of the famous "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", which depicts Kaifeng in Bianjing today. "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is 25.2 cm wide and 528.7 cm long. It is painted on silk. . The work is in the form of a long scroll and uses scattered perspective composition to vividly record the urban appearance of Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty and the living conditions of people from all walks of life at that time. It is a testimony to the prosperity of Bianjing in that year and a portrayal of the urban economic situation in the Northern Song Dynasty.
This is unique in the history of painting in China and even the world. In the five-meter-long scroll, Mao Zedong painted 814 people of various colors, 73 cattle, mules, donkeys and other livestock, more than 20 carts and sedan chairs, and 29 large and small boats. Houses, bridges, towers, etc. each have their own characteristics, reflecting the characteristics of Song Dynasty architecture. It has high historical value and artistic value.
There are many excerpts from this article. Because I like "Only This Green", I pay more attention and understand it. From this, I love Wujiwu, so I should learn to expand my knowledge and record the beauty in words, so that it will not be forgotten. .
