海派剪纸展新颜

A NEW LOOK ON SHANGHAI STYLE PAPER-CUTTING

剪纸,是我国民间艺术领域里群众性最广泛,地域性最鲜明、造型特征最强烈的传统民间艺术,千百年来它依托民俗活动,在日常生活中,用口传心授的方法一代一代传承下来,终于形成了一份珍贵的非物质文化遗产。在中国有证可考的出土文物中,剪纸已有1500多年历史,如按中国的造纸发明来计算,它的历史将会更长远。上海是海派剪纸的发源地,在近半个世纪中,尤其是中国改革开放以来,上海的剪纸艺术伴随着经济、文化发展而不断创新繁荣。1987年5月上海成立了剪纸专业委员会,1989年12月举办了首次"上海当代剪纸艺术展"。多年来,在会长林曦明先生的掌领下,上海剪纸艺术的普及工作不断推进,爱好者队伍不断壮大,作品不断推陈出新,在全国剪纸展上屡获嘉奖,地域风格逐渐显现出来,形成了海派剪纸的特色。

2008 Contemporary Shanghai style paper-cutting exhibition,which is jointly organized by Shanghai Folk Writers and Artists Association and Shanghai Professional Paper-cutting Committee,is the largest exhibition of paper-cutting with the most widely-spread participation,the most art styles and the highest qualities.The works on exhibition have bold breakthroughs on themes and crafts,among which most absorb the western modern techniques while inheriting of the tradition.They are full of spirits of creation and innovation,which will boost the the development of paper-cutting in diversity.
