民间“丑”的意趣和乡土“美”的升华——从赣南采茶舞的化丑为美说起

On the Charm of Ugliness and Sublimation of Beauty in Folk Dance——From Tea-picking Dance in South Jiangxi

赣南采茶舞蹈是以赣南采茶戏中的动作素材为基础发展而来的民间舞蹈种类,它所表现的机智灵敏、活泼风趣的男性形象有效地在课堂上实现了对学生表演能力的综合训练。另一方面,它对于正丑和反丑形象的塑造,或寓庄于谐,或通过对丑的否定实现对美的肯定,其"化丑为美"的经验也值得我们进一步思考和学习。同时,赣南采茶舞并非是一个孤立的个案,而是具有代表性的典型。究竟如何在舞台上艺术地表现民间舞蹈"丑"的意趣和进行乡土"美"的升华,成为研究的关键且重要的问题,这既是赣南采茶舞蹈化丑为美带给我们的思考,也是拓宽民间舞蹈创作和发展路径的重要维度。本文运用舞蹈生态学的方法论对赣南采茶舞的动作形态、文化阐释等方面进行分析,试图对个案研究中的赣南采茶舞进行立体化的网状型认知。
