What is the inheritance of Shaoxing folk art

Diversity of Shaoxing Folk Art Inheritance

As a famous historical and cultural city, Shaoxing has a prosperous context, and its intangible cultural heritage is also dazzling. "However, in the process of globalization, industrialization and urbanization, the social environment and ecological environment on which traditional crafts depend have undergone drastic changes, and their protection and inheritance are also facing severe challenges, and traditional skills are lacking." Shu, former deputy director of the Standing Committee of Shaoxing Municipal People's Congress and honorary president of Shaoxing Arts and Crafts Industry Association, said.

20 12 Shaoxing established a traditional craft innovation team, which has been committed to the protection, excavation and inheritance of traditional skills for several years. "We have been looking for cooperation, looking for inheritors, accepting apprentices and teaching art.. After many years of preparation and many site selections, there is no ideal response. " Zhao, a senior arts and crafts artist and inheritor of "non-legacy" bronze carving craft, bluntly said that he only inherited his father's business, and they were worried about the situation of "people dying". Statistics show that most of the master craftsmen in Shaoxing are over 60 years old, so rescue protection is imminent.
