(Shencheng Scenic Line) The whole city launches "City Aesthetic Education Day" everywhere in Shanghai neighborhoods
Shanghai, 4 April (ZXS) -- Question: The whole city launches "City Aesthetic Education Day" and "beauty" can be everywhere in Shanghai's neighborhoods
Written by Wang Di
"The most beautiful April day in the world", the breeze blows, full of spring. On April 4, the Shanghai Citizens' Cultural Festival "City Aesthetic Education Day" was launched throughout Shanghai, and aesthetic education quietly "bloomed" everywhere in Shencheng. Citizens meet and walk towards "beauty" on the waterfront, in the block, in the venue, and on the bus, opening the poetic picture of spring.
On the same day, artists such as Zheng Xinyao and Shen Xuejiang boarded a peach-pink double-decker bus with a group of art lovers, visited many Internet celebrity check-in points such as the Huazheng Trail along the way, listened to the tour guide explain the story of urban architecture, and painted the picture of Shanghai with the brush in his hand. The bus finally arrives at Shangsheng Xinsho, an emerging cultural and artistic life circle in Changning District.
Because her grandson likes double-decker buses, citizen Ms. Wang took her daughter's family to sign up for this "micro-trip". She told the China News Agency reporter that Changning has a humanistic environment where buildings can be read, and there are many old buildings such as the former residence of Hudec on Yuyuan Road and Xinhua Road, "I think such activities are very meaningful, especially for children to have an understanding of urban architecture and urban civilization." ”
"Spring is coming, the flowers are green, and the city buildings are rejuvenated. Boarding the bus feels like traveling through a culture, and despite the short distance, you feel the rapid change of the city. In the view of Huang Azhong, chairman of the Changning District Artists Association, life drawing is to write life, write life, and with the spring of the heart, life and life have jumped on paper.
There is drama around the corner, and scenery everywhere. Jing'an District, which features theater as its regional culture, has also launched a "drama bus" into the newly completed Daning Road Street Community Cultural Activity Square. The "Drama Bus" brings together mobile theater ticket kiosks, drama dressing rooms, drama small stages, drama supermarkets and other functions, and has previously set up "drama stations" in cultural landmarks such as Jing'an Temple, Shanghai Circus World, and Ullens Art Museum. Members of the public can board the bus to dress up and experience the styling of theatrical characters, or meet with theatrical guests unexpectedly to start a "drama spring outing" full of surprises.
Wutong Road and "Music Block" in Xuhui District are the most famous. Strolling through the "Music District" under the plane trees, you can see well-known landmarks such as Shanghai Conservatory of Music, Shangyin Opera House, Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, Shanghai Symphony Music Museum, Nie Er's Former Residence, as well as unique music bookstores and music cafes. This is the neighborhood with the highest concentration of music in Shanghai.
Jiang Yan, deputy director of the Xuhui District Culture and Tourism Bureau, revealed that Xuhui District will cooperate with music institutions in the region to release a "Melody Class Table", draw a music map, launch a music travel route, and hold a series of music special exhibitions, so that citizens and tourists can walk here and feel the atmosphere of the "Philharmonic City".
Reading and art are also "poetically linked" in the city. Renowned architect David Chipperfield has just won the Pritzker Architecture Prize, which is regarded as the highest honor in architecture, and Shanghai's "new Internet celebrity" Xujiahui Academy and art landmark West Bund Art Museum are important design works, and the cross-border cooperation between the two "sister pavilions" has attracted attention. On the same day, the senior tour guide of West Bund Art Museum walked into Xujiahui Academy and brought readers a guided tour of the museum's permanent exhibition "The Voice of All Things".
"Xujiahui Academy and West Bund Art Museum, while responding to different built environments, both aim to promote knowledge and culture, serve the public interest, and improve the communities in which they operate. I am glad that the two institutions are working together, sharing books and exhibitions, and organizing joint events. Chipperfield said. (End)
