木雕文化的新机遇

New Opportunity for the Woodcarving Culture

在我国明清两代五彩纷呈的艺术中,没有哪一种艺术能像传统木雕艺术那样广泛流传,雅俗共赏。上至宫殿皇家、寺院宗庙、衙门官邸、富豪深院,下至庶民居室;它的数量流传至今,更是史无前例。创造和参与者几乎人人可为。"绝活出神品,见工见艺",这正是莆田木雕作品的真实写照。

In the diversified forms of art of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, not a single art has been so widespread like traditional woodcarving, suiting both the refined and popular tastes. There are numerous woodcarving works in royal palaces, temples and shrines, official residences, mansions and even in the houses of ordinary people, and the number of woodcarving works that has been handed down and well-preserved up to now is unprecedented. Almost all the creators and participators have a good mastery of woodcarving techniques. ＂Exquisite craftsmanship, superb works＂ is the true portrait of Putian woodcarving.
