Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-01-29

A deciduous art exhibition held by the China Academy of Art for the urban public has just come out of the street, and it has become popular!Three giant autumn foliage statues, made of silk mesh shelves "pasted" with fallen leaves, stand at the entrance of the China Academy of Fine Arts on Nanshan Road, attracting countless check-ins - the work "The World of Symbols" uses a fallen leaf installation to abstractly express "people swimming in the middle of the painting";The work "Stay" appears in the image of a huge "elf", and the huge palm of the right hand seems to be waiting for the public, sheltering the comers;The work "Autumn Leap" jumps into the air with a huge body, raising its head and swinging a fist in the shape of a smashing ball, giving people infinite life force. People stopped to take pictures, and children ran and frolicked, adding infinite joy and warmth to the city streets in the depths of winter.

According to the report, the students of the Academy of Fine Arts have been playing with leaves for many years, and it was later named the Autumn Leaves Art Festival, which is an annual event dedicated to the city of Hangzhou. This year, with the theme of "Infinite Vitality", more than 20 works will be released one after another. So, why does "art of falling leaves" move people's hearts?

First of all, this is in line with people's perception of phenological changes and solar termsThroughout the ages, from "a leaf knows autumn" to "fallen leaves are full of steps, and the autumn wind blows again......".A few words and sentences are excellent to understand the preface of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the prosperity and withering of plants and trees. In recent years, when the urban public has become more and more leisurely, this has also brought back the hidden classical feelings of sadness. Nature is undoubtedly generous, giving people beautiful gifts, and fallen leaves are one of them. Creators are good at finding inspiration, discovering beauty, and turning waste into treasure and decay into magic with ingenuity, so that the beauty of fallen leaves can reach new heights, new ideas and new changes. In addition, the form of opening the door to hold exhibitions and facing the public makes life art and art life, which arouses the soul and stimulates emotional resonance.

Secondly, this also invisibly echoes the transformation of urban fine governance related to "falling leaves do not sweep". A small fallen leaf, why has it repeatedly become the protagonist of the news in recent years?Among them, it is precisely people's yearning for a "growing better life" - to retain fallen leaves is to retain beauty, nature, and human poetry to inhabit the earth. In recent years, the policy of "not sweeping the fallen leaves" has taken root in major cities across the country, and the call has become a consensus, and Hangzhou is the first to try it. From the initial "fallen leaves must be swept" to "fallen leaves are not swept, fallen leaves are slowly swept", and then to the demarcation of urban "fallen leaves do not sweep" roads (streets and alleys) and expand the scope year by year, the continuous adjustment and improvement of governance measures demonstrate that the management department strives for excellence, public opinion demands are heard to the greatest extent, and the great beauty of "falling leaves are not swept" is achieved with public opinion interaction.

Finally, from the popularity of "deciduous art", we might as well read another deep meaning, that is, people's call for the beauty of urban humanities, and the full expectation of harmonious habitat between man and nature. Hangzhou is a famous historical and cultural city, a city of innovation and vitality, and the capital of ecological civilization, "Hangzhou has not been left behind, and half of it is this lake," cherish all things around nature, and protect the mountains and rivers, grass and trees here, as long as we treat and manage every detail with our hearts, all kinds of "fallen leaf art", "falling flower art" and "grass and tree art" will emerge in endlessly, and the city can also become a humanistic show, a life show, and an art show everywhere.
