Who is the authentic clay figurine Zhang?

Zhang, the sixth generation clay figurine, 1978 Tianjin native.

Their ancestors moved from Zhejiang to Tianjin during Daoguang period in the late Qing Dynasty, namely 1832. Mr. Zhang Wanquan, the ancestor, came to Tianjin with his family to run a private school. After studying, later generations found their own interests and took it as a career.

There is a gentleman among the descendants, known as "clay figurine Zhang". This branch, because it has been engaged in clay sculpture for generations, has always been called "clay figurine Zhang Shi Jia". Zhang Yu is the sixth generation clay figurine Zhang of this family after 180.

During this period, Mr. Zhang Wanquan's family came to Tianjin for seven generations, and his eldest son, Zhang Changlin, whose real name was Mingshan, was called "Clay Man Zhang Man".

Zhang Yuting, the son of Mr. Zhang Mingshan, is known as the "second generation clay figurine Zhang".

Zhang Yangquan, the eldest son of Mr. Zhang Yuting, whose real name is Jingfu, is called "the third generation clay figurine Zhang".

Mr. Zhang Jingfu carries on the family line, and his eldest son, Zhang Ming, whose real name is called "the fourth generation clay figurine Zhang".

Zhang Ming, the eldest son of Zhang Naiying, was called "the fifth generation clay figurine Zhang".

Mr. Zhang Naiying passed the throne to his eldest son, Zhang Yu, who is now the "sixth generation clay figurine Zhang".

It began to operate in Guwen Street in 2000.

In 2004, Zhang Shi Jia, a clay figurine of Zhang Yu, was established, and then the Clay Fighter Zhang Art Museum was established. The storefront deals in contemporary works, and the art museum is responsible for the collection, collation and research of sculpture theory of works of past dynasties.

20 15 Two new exhibition halls have been set up in Beijing 798 Art Zone to explore how the traditional clay sculpture language can present its understanding of life in a richer cultural system in the form of joint exhibition with contemporary art.

20 17 clay figurine Zhang painting and sculpture old workshop Binhai Center, located in Tianjin Binhai Art Museum. It is a theme exhibition hall founded by the sixth generation clay figurine Zhang Changyu, which integrates exhibition collection, academic exchange, publicity and education, and cultural innovation.

"Clay Fighter Zhang" is, while "Clay Fighter Zhang Caisu" refers to the artistic style of father and son.

Those who leave their father and son to talk about "clay figurine Zhang", even the descendants of the Zhang family, are mostly ghosts themselves, or the dog's tail continues to be marten.

Let's make sure one thing first, that is, Mr. Zhang Mingshan's clay sculpture and Mr. Zhang Yuting's clay sculpture have different styles and techniques, and even contradict each other in some places.

For example, the finely processed clothing lines in Mr. Zhang Mingshan's works and the clothing lines in Mr. Zhang Yuting's works are completely pursuing different final effects. There has always been a debate about whether to handle clothing lines carefully or to keep them in a natural state. However, the two predecessors each chose a path and achieved the ultimate.

Therefore, most of the styles and techniques of everyone in the family can be said to be sui generis.

There is no clay figurine Zhang Caisu, only Zhang Mingshan clay figurines, Zhang Yuting clay figurines and so on.

If the school of clay figurine Zhang Caisu is used to represent the technical school of clay figurine Zhang Shi Jia, we should follow the general induction method of this school in a way similar to Yangzhou Painting School, that is, the artistic period, theme, style, representative figures, representative works and representative artistic styles are roughly the same.

Only Zhang Mingshan and Zhang Yuting, as well as Zhang Jingfu, Zhang Jingzuo and Zhang Ming who helped Mr. Zhang Yuting create in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, can be regarded as artistic figures of this genre.

The only representative figures are Zhang Mingshan and Zhang Yuting, and only a few of their works can be called representative works, such as The Portrait of Mr. Mingshan and a few statues of traditional figures, Mulan Joining the Army, Yuqiao Q&A and so on. Mr. Yu Ting's Sugar Blower, Zhong Kui Marries a Sister, Portrait of a Lady, etc.

If an art school can last for a long time through the continuation of future generations and students, it is a technical and artistic fantasy.

The period of clay figurine Zhang Caisu School should be from the late Qing Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, until the death of Mr. Zhang Yuting in 1954.

But this is his academic induction. Personally, I think China's sculptures have not formed an artistic atmosphere, which is not enough to produce genres.

So there is no clay figurine Zhang Caisu, only Zhang Mingshan clay sculpture, Zhang Yuting clay sculpture and today's Changyu clay sculpture.

Everyone has different experiences and styles.

"Clay Fighter Zhang Shijia" is the name of Zhang Yu's enterprise and the name people call this family, which has nothing to do with art.

Clay figurine Zhang Caisu was the name of 1959 during the Great Leap Forward of literature and art, which was produced because of the political need for traditional art. Although it will make people feel that he includes Zhang Yu's family, works, artistic style and so on. In fact, the production of these five words, what we actually need to do is to make the clay figurine Zhang three words completely draw a clear line with Zhang's descendants and works, forming another system, which is completely conducive to the needs of publicity.

This situation was not improved until 1998 10.

Clay sculpture is a human skill, which has existed for tens of thousands of years. If you want to know him and feel him, please clarify all kinds of preset needs, cognition and guidance for him first.

Just like the novelty, adventure and exploration we felt when we took our first breath as a baby, it turns out that I can do the same. What kind of behavior is this? Call it sculpture.
