湛江“番鬼托梁”木雕的艺术特征与保护传承

The Artistic Characteristics and Protective Inheritance of Fan-qui Joists Woodcarvings in Zhanjiang

“番鬼托梁”木雕是以1898年入侵广州湾的法国侵略军官兵及其越南附庸兵的形象为原型雕刻而成的古建筑驼峰构件,有着深层次的历史渊源和浓郁的地方特色,被列入湛江市第二批非物质文化遗产保护项目。木雕历经多年的历史变迁产生了不同程度的损坏,运用传统的方式也无法对传承人进行真实全面的保护,为了让这份宝贵的文化遗产得以延续并发挥其功用,可以通过科学的保护修缮,拓宽木雕人才的培育途径,利用现代技术等保护与传承的策略和措施,促进木雕文物以及传承人的保护,可以使其保持旺盛的生命力,实现木雕艺术可持续发展的目的。

The Fan-qui joists are camelhump-shaped support components of ancient buildings,which are based on the images of the French invaders and their Vietnamese vassals who invaded Guangzhou Bay in 1898.Having deep historical origins and strong local characteristics,these support components are listed in the second batch of intangible cultural heritage protection projects in Zhanjiang.After years of historical changes,the woodcarvings have been damaged in different degrees,and it is almost impossible to protect the inheritors intensively and comprehensively in traditional ways of protection.In order to let this precious cultural heritage last and function,through measures such as scientific protection and repair,broadening the cultivation of woodcarving talents,and making use of modern technology,the vitality of woodcarving art can be kept effectively and the goal of its sustainable development will be achieved.
