闽南憨番造型及其文化意涵

Han Fan Style and Its Cultural Implication in Southern Fujian

"憨番"一词的闽南俚语本义,特指传统概念中的东西洋外域人,其延伸义是指起源于隋唐佛教寺庙建筑装饰中的西域力士造像;而其另一个意涵,是指明清时期闽南海洋文化交流中的海岛民族及其昆仑奴造像。"憨番扛大杉"则是闽南民众在生活中常用的俚语,描述了闽南区域庙宇建筑装饰特有的多元文化融合现象。这种地域性强、较生活化的非官方语言表述,透露出闽南明清时期海洋文化信息。这种多元文化交融催生出的闽南民间美术传承演变中的异域文化特质,为区域文化研究提供了另一个重要视角。
