Jinshan peasant paintings are a new seedling growing in the soil of Jiangnan folk art. She took the Jiangnan local art as an opportunity to follow the pulse of life,
gathered the wisdom of everyone, and developed humanistic creations. With the help of tutors, the help of experts, and the care and support of leaders, she was born in July. In the late 1900s, he created a new style of modern folk painting in my country, which was affirmed by Chinese and foreign experts and loved by the broad audience.
Jinshan peasant paintings originate from the ancient folk art of the south of the Yangtze River. It takes the customs and customs of the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River as the main theme, and integrates embroidery, paper-cutting, blue calico, stove murals, sculptures, lacquer painting and other folk art expression techniques, using Bold artistic exaggeration and strong color contrast make clumsy better than skill.
Many professionals believe that Jinshan peasant paintings may seem rustic, but in fact they contain many "avant-garde things." Liu Jie from Jinshan District Bureau of Culture and Broadcasting said: "Jinshan peasant paintings are not bound by the principle of perspective. When painting fish ponds, according to traditional Western painting techniques, only the edges under perspective can be drawn. But peasant paintings also turn the bottom up. , this translation implicitly coincides with the innovation of modern Western painters, so it can arouse the interest of foreign people."
Fengjing is the birthplace of Jinshan peasant paintings. As early as 1963, Chen Fulin and other farmers from the Victory Brigade of Fengwei Commune (now Zhonghong Village, Fengjing Town) were inspired by traditional national and folk plastic arts and skillfully used ancient arts such as folk printing and dyeing, embroidery, wood carving, and stove murals. The paintings vividly show the living customs and labor scenes in the rural areas of Jiangnan. This may be the earliest peasant painting. In April 1980, the "Shanghai Jinshan Farmers Painting Exhibition" jointly organized by the National Art Museum of China and the Shanghai Artists Association opened at the National Art Museum of China, causing a sensation in the capital. Since then, Jinshan peasant paintings have gone abroad and attracted the attention of all walks of life. Domestic and foreign reporters came to Jinshan one after another for interviews, and a large number of outstanding peasant painters such as Chen Fulin and Cao Xiuwen emerged from Zhonghong Village alone.
