Hundreds of flowers bloomCinema, spring plowing and grazing, literati and scholarsKomiksEnjoy the Spring Elegant Collection… The works exhibited this time strive to show the prosperous spring written by ancient painters from the aspects of customs, scenery, etc.
The first part of the exhibition is “Wind: Praying for Spring”, which mainly exhibits works on the theme of the dynasty in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The second part of the exhibition is “Yangchun Elegant Meeting”, which displays works by ancient literati on the theme of spring outings and cultivation.
Since ancient times, it has been popular to go out for outings in early spring, and to hold sauna activities on the Shangsi Festival in late spring. The “Lanting Xiucai” and other elegant gatherings that evolved from folk sauna activities have injected elegant mood into this festival. The “Preface to Lanting” written by Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty made “Lanting Xiuhua” and “Qushui Liushang” unique themes in Chinese paintings that express spring scenery.
The third part is “Ode to: Appreciating the Spring and Rising Thoughts”. This part mainly uses spring flowers and landscapes as exhibits, presenting ancient CinemaThe spring scenery depicted by the painter.
The Northern Song Dynasty painter Guo Xi believed that due to the different wind and rain and the morning and evening seasons, the mountains and forests written by the painter should also have different atmospheres. The spring breeze is warm and the spring light is swaying, making people feel comfortable both physically and mentally. Looking at things with emotion, the characters that appear in this kind of picture should also be happy and harmonious. They either go outings, go fishing, cross the water, go back to herds, or plowing, forming a unique picture of spring.

The Yearly Dynasty’s offerings: entrusting the vision of a better life
The ancient Spring Festival included Nuo sacrifices, dust sweeping, banquets, ancestor worship, peach talismans, and door gods. Therefore, the “Sui Dynasty Picture” in traditional Chinese paintings always cannot be separated from content such as farewell to the old and welcome the new, exorcising evil and eliminating disasters, worshiping gods and ancestors, praying for the years and blessings.
“Sui Dynasty” is the first day of the Lunar New Year. As a work that suits the occasion of the season, painters often use fruits and vegetables, fairy flowers, auspicious grass, beautiful utensils, strange stones and other items into the painting. These ornaments often placed on the desk are called “clear offerings” to pray for blessings and welcome good fortune.
Ju Lian’s “Qing Qing Dynasty Picture” uses fruits and flowers that symbolize harmony and auspiciousness to add a festive atmosphere. At the same time, he prays for blessings in the name of “Qing Gong”, expressing his wishes for a better life. There are also pictures of the ancient people who bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and celebrate the worship of Babaylan, showing a peaceful New Year atmosphere. For example, “The Sui Dynasty Picture” by Yongying, the sixth son of Qianlong, is another special piece in the exhibition “Sui Dynasty” theme works, which depicts the scenery of the Sui Dynasty in the northern Sui Dynasty. Although the picture looks cooler, it implies the peaceful meaning of “Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest”.

Traveling around in the mountains and rivers: “Peach Blossom Land” full of fireworks
“Peach Blossom Land” is a famous Eastern Jin Dynasty href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Komiks One of the representative works of the writer Tao Yuanming, is also a creative theme that painters of all dynasties enjoy. There are several works in this exhibition based on the stories of “Peach Blossom Land”. These works have their own characteristics, including long scrolls that are loyal to the text and narrative with paintings, sketches that cut through the wonderful fragments of the story, and landscape paintings that create out of the text and extend the artistic conception of “Peach Blossom Land”. Among them, Huang Bi’s “Tao Yuanming’s Poems Komiks” is a relatively complete reproduction of the work of “Peach Blossom Land”. This work is a long and long version of the work. The form of a Cinema volume shows the different scenes in the poem in paragraphs. The layout of the whole work is neat and rigorous, and each plot is separated by a large rock in the close-up area. Babaylan has cleverly divided the different parts of the story, with neat and delicate brushwork, and the ink is set. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema‘s color is elegant. Although Huang Bi painted “Peach Blossom Land”, peach blossoms do not account for a large proportion like other paintings of the same title, and appear only as embellishments. The painter uses the rendering of the world’s fireworks to express his imagination of the ideal pastoral life, making this work without the unattainable fairy spirit and make people feel more intimate.
In addition, this exhibition is also on display href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema Spring landscape paintings created by important painters in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong in the Qing Dynasty. Such as Zhang Chong, Qi Fengjia, Huang Bi, Wang Hui, Yun Shouping, Dong Bangda, Yuan Jiang, Li Jian, Su Liupeng, etc.
SuLiupeng was an important painter in Guangdong in the Qing Dynasty. His painting style is diverse, fine and extensive, and he is good at painting various subjects such as characters, landscapes, flowers and birds. The “Green Green Deep Mountain Spring Tour” exhibited in this exhibition depicts the scene in the Taohua Creek area of Luofu Mountain. Komiks
The author wrote a poem on the painting: “The peach blossoms bloom countless times on the stream, and the spring water is green among the flowers. I don’t look for the source to come because of the fishing boat, and I will try to know the immortals (home) to escape from the world. The green rain flows through the clouds and connects the jade cave, and the sun is protected by the sun. The old couple in the mountains made an appointment, and asked me to come back to the spring with wine.” This shows that the painter’s work borrows the allusion from the “Peach Blossom Spring” to describe the scene in the Taohua Creek area of Luofu Mountain in spring.
[Reporter’s Notes]
The museum has a good collection and better exhibition
After an extremely extraordinary year, the spring of 2021 is even more exciting. The Guangzhou Art Museum, which is about to be relocated, held the Ming and Qing dynasties Spring Painting Exhibition as its first exhibition at the beginning of the year with the theme of “Spring”. It is of great significance.
The exhibition basically follows the curatorial ideas of setting themes, integrating collections, and discovering stories, and fully mobilizes the fine paintings of the Ming and Qing dynasties collected by itself and its brother institutions.
The current exhibition format is getting more and more focused on experience. For this reason, major institutions have spent a lot of effort and effort on the layout of the exhibition. In this exhibition, the organizer intends to set up various forms of presentation effects in the exhibition hall to enhance the audience’s exhibition experience.
In the era of multimedia, content is still king. Whether in the professional field or in the eyes of the public, the core elements of the exhibition are still the exhibition and the curator’s interpretation and knowledge production of exhibits.
The predecessor of the Guangzhou Art Museum is one of the earliest art museums in New China in 1957 – Guangzhou Art Museum. The site of the Guangzhou Art Museum is originally located in the Zhongyuan Building, a famous building on Yuexiu Mountain, and later moved to the current site of the Guangzhou Art Museum at the foot of Baiyun Mountain and on the banks of Luhu Lake in the northern part of the city. Its main collection is donated by a group of important predecessors from the Lingnan cultural circle. It is also these batches of donations and collections that have made the Guangzhou Art Museum gather and treasures a gathering of treasures and gems, becoming an indispensable corner of the Guangzhou urban cultural map.
In recent years, large institutions such as Guangdong Public Museums and Art Museums have achieved many remarkable results in the excavation and research of collections, and are at the forefront of the country and are eye-catching. We must have a good collection and a good exhibition to serve the public. Collection research and display is one of the biggest differences between public institutions and private collections. As Li Wenru, former vice president of the Palace Museum, once said in an interview with reporters: letting more people see the museum’s collections is the greatest patriotism.
