A 73-year-old man in Shaanxi made Shuihu 108 into a long paper-cut scroll. What do you think of paper-cutting art?

Paper-cut culture is a traditional art that has been passed down for a long time in China, but fewer and fewer people are willing to take the time to study it. It may also be because the pace of contemporary society is too fast, and no one has time to settle down and make such fine works.

202 11/October 21,on the internet, a 70-year-old man in Shaanxi got angry because of paper-cutting. The old man was fascinated by the paper-cut in his hands since he was a child, and at the same time he liked the outlaws described in China's classical novels. He restored 108 heroes of the water margin for us with clever paper-cutting skills. According to the old man, he just wants to pass on the culture left by his ancestors, and he has no business philosophy or other ideas.

I. Paper-cutting Art China is the cradle of paper-cutting culture and art, and paper-cutting first appeared in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. At that time, people did not use scissors to complete this process, but carved it, which was liked by people of different classes because of its different functions and carriers. The difference between the extremely popular folk paper-cut culture lies in the different tools. Although the tools are different, the handicrafts are basically the same. Paper-cutting is a kind of hollow art, which makes people feel the pleasure of vision and art unconsciously. The carrier of paper-cutting is not necessarily paper, but leaves or leather. When people get up, they mainly play a decorative role. Paper-cut style contains a lot of traditional culture and history, which conveys the aesthetics of every creator in this way. Paper-cutting is a culture that men, women and children can participate in and learn. Paper-cut culture contains moral values and life experience circulating in China's blood.

Second, the influence of paper-cut culture on China people The most intuitive influence of paper-cut culture is the decorative function. In the early days of paper-cutting, paper-cutting technology included people's yearning for a better life in the future. At that time, when the level of culture and art was not very high, paper-cutting was the most intuitive way for people to pursue fashion and express local culture. With the development of paper-cut culture, paper-cut plays the role of cultural communication carrier. After hundreds of years of precipitation, paper-cutting has become an extremely heavy folk culture. With the country's emphasis on traditional folk art, paper-cut art has gradually become the mainstream culture and has been favored by people. Paper-cut culture is not only aesthetic, but also a kind of respect for ancestors. The inheritance and development of paper-cut culture not only reflects the traditional culture and folk customs of China, but also reflects people's distinct love-hate psychology and pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty. A simple piece of red paper contains profound national cultural significance.

In this impetuous social atmosphere, people always use the banner of protecting traditional culture. In fact, they don't care about traditional culture, and few people have the patience to learn traditional paper-cutting. This phenomenon is extremely common, but it is also understandable. After all, paper-cutting is also a kind of work that can be replaced by machines, and there is no need for human beings to waste time on such things. But I hope that even if not many people pay attention to this culture, those craftsmen will not be discouraged and continue to pass on the culture that has been passed down in China for thousands of years.
