What can artists do to revitalize rural culture? "Meeting Dali" -- the invitation exhibition of works of famous Chinese and Western artists was recently opened at "Zhonghe academy" in Zhonghe village, Dali, bringing together more than 100 works of more than 90 artists from China, France, Britain, Greece, Belgium, South Korea and other countries, covering calligraphy, Chinese painting, oil painting, watercolor, printmaking and many other categories. In the future, the exhibition will also tour in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other places.
This is one of the first important international cultural exchange activities held by Dali Prefecture since the impact of the global epidemic. It is also an important exploration for the government to join hands with the Academy of Arts and artists to revitalize the countryside with culture. The reporter learned that the event was organized and planned by Dali University. It is intended to open people's cognition of culture and art through the exchange and collision between eastern and Western artists. "Cultural revitalization is a key link in rural revitalization, and literary and artistic workers will also have a broader world to display their talents." Niu Yan, member of the Standing Committee of the Dali Prefecture Party Committee and Minister of the Propaganda Department, said.
The ancient city of Dali in March is filled with the fragrance of Camellia and cherry blossoms. Cheng Dali, a librarian of the Central Museum of culture and history, made a special trip. He said that Dali is an important town of Silk Road culture and an ancient city with rich accumulation. Zhonghe village is a pearl of Dali. "'a drop of water looks at the sea, and a grain of sand looks at the world '. The story of Zhonghe and Dali is a Chinese story. We should tell it well and inherit the story of Dali. A painting, a sculpture, a building, a tune and a dance are the embodiment of the national spirit and can extend endless research topics. The national is the world, and the research, inheritance and development of national art. There must be bright prospects for carrying forward the broad pattern of excellent Chinese traditional culture. "
The beautiful scenery of Dali has always been remembered by painter Deng Weidong. In 1981, he and several teachers from Southwest Normal University came to Dali to paint from life and painted a portrait of Bai girl Yang xiugu in Xizhou township. More than 40 years have passed. When he came to Dali this time, he wanted to meet Yang xiugu, give her the paintings he painted that year, and prepare to create another painting for her at the Erhai beach of Cangshan.
