How traditional culture is embodied in contemporary art?

Art is the embodiment of culture, so is oriental art, and so is western art. People can see the differences between Chinese painting and western oil painting from painting, and tracing back to the source is actually the embodiment of cultural differences between the East and the West in painting art.

Traditional culture is the essence of culture, which has been proved to be valuable by history and practice and should be passed down.

How traditional culture is embodied in contemporary art? This is a question that all artists and artists are thinking, exploring and practicing. As an art lover, I think this problem should be grasped from two aspects:

First of all, we should learn and understand traditional culture. Since we want to embody traditional culture in contemporary art, we must know something about it. Of course, traditional culture contains a lot of content, which is profound, has a long history and is profound. It is not easy to master them comprehensively. You can choose the corresponding traditional cultural content according to your own artistic direction and creative content, and express it in the form of art.

Second, it is very important to find the point of convergence between traditional culture and contemporary spirit, so that traditional culture can be integrated with contemporary spirit and pursuit. For example, Guanyin with a Thousand Hands, a large-scale dance, absorbs and draws lessons from the traditional culture in Dunhuang murals, endows it with contemporary spirit and flavor of the times, so it is widely welcomed and praised, and becomes a classic art. For another example, many contemporary Chinese paintings contain the traditional culture of China in the art of pen and ink, showing a contemporary cultural feeling and sentiment in the landscape, and at the same time showing people's spiritual needs and demands in the current era, spreading a positive, upright and noble spirit of the times.

It is also the need of art development to embody traditional culture in contemporary art and let it pass on and serve the present, which conforms to the law of art development and is also the tradition followed by art in past dynasties. Paintings and other works of art in the European Renaissance were mostly based on the ancient Greek and Roman culture, which endowed them with humanistic thoughts at that time, which not only had a positive and extensive social influence and role, but also greatly promoted and promoted the prosperity and development of art.
