0 comments
At the moment, the so-called "city sculpture" the rapid expansion in the number of "take-off" type of sculpture filled the air, everywhere the poor sculpture of hammered stainless steel sculpture ribbons, stick stick, Sphere combination, insipid, garbage throughout the country, the artistic quality artwork worrying. Blindly building under the command of this phenomenon and performance concept. 30 years ago, sculpture Kadoba cold, now the sculpture, but the meat and potatoes. Many places either sculpture street, either to Sculpture Square. A famous sculpture park to do some companies look on contracting anywhere from several dozen to as many as tens of hundreds of works. A result of the the campaign duration achievements, is seriously out of art law, in this case, does not produce the junk sculpture Nengchan what? Erosion and unspoken rules of the market, to further promote the breeding of the city garbage artwork.
Many drawbacks due to the operation of city sculpture in serious injury to the creation of city sculpture and academic research, many scholars gradually abandon attention of Chengdiao field. Most sculpture artists, think outside the artistic creation of city sculpture the operation too hard to grasp, began bogie or sense of Contemporary Art's Sculpture.
City sculpture is the old sculptor Liu Kaiqu the early 1980s of a new concept. Steven Crane's article, "the main exit of the sculpture in the outdoor" (The article published in 1979 in Guangzhou, the newspaper, "Art" magazines in 1981) was a published immediately aroused the attention of the Chinese sculptor. Proposed the concept of city sculpture, the older generation, and thus efforts to promote the Chengdiao career development, and regulatory agencies such as the establishment of city sculpture, city sculpture design qualification certificates issued to professional sculpture workers planning to do research for large cities, the host city for sculpture Exhibition. Their intention is to allow the construction of city sculpture driving on the track managed to mobilize the sculpture sector elite social Chengdiao boutique. The word "fine" is the core of their original intention. It should be said that these efforts has made great achievements, China's city sculpture have a system, with its own characteristics of Chinese sculpture. Features First from concept to distinguish it from the monument sculpture of the former Soviet Union, but also different from the concept of public art in the West, has the characteristics of China's administrative running mode, of course, the art look significantly different.
With great enthusiasm and quality consciousness has created a large number of high artistic quality of city sculpture in the rise of city sculpture stage, the older generation of artists, such as of Zeng Zhushao "Sun Yat-sen like" Steven Crane "Zhuhai Fisher Girl," the Bull "Qian Shaowu Li Dazhao" Ye Yushan the "Geleshan Revolution Martyrs Monument," seasons ", Cheng Yunxian people" Peace Girl ", He E" Yellow River Mother ", coproduct Yong" Thirtieth movement Monument ", Yuyu Yang Feng Peak Han ...
However, the current situation of city sculpture has deviated from the original intention of the year, if not its targeted and take countermeasures, eventually Chengdiao the the will become the city's visual nuisance. Now is the time of diagnosis and prescription for the health status of city sculpture!

How to display the city sculpture?

0 comments
A good city sculpture and its success lies not only in its carving have much good, but also consider it placed in locations is appropriate. Display location is reasonable, and the environment play a complementary role, if only consider their own sculpture design and do not pay attention to sculpture surrounding environmental factors, will reduce the aesthetic effect of the sculpture, sculpture and environment disconnection, losing the original meaning. Light broadly speaking you may not realize, following just red sculpture manufacturers of everyone as a real example.

The city of Xiamen in the annual International Marathon in the lawn beside the highway, ranging from the arranged ninety-nine life-size, all kinds of running posture of athletes and to contest audiences sculpture, a few kilometres. A true reproduction of the year here in the marathon in the real scene, Weimiaoweixiao, spectacular. Combined with the surrounding coordination green, blue sea, tall buildings and not far from beautiful Kinmen Island, making it known as the world's most beautiful marathon, the International Olympic Committee also deliberately put two pieces of permanent collection. It has now become the important tourism resources of Xiamen. It 's clever lies with the road as the track of the special status, not only embodies the marathon held in Xiamen seaside exclusivity, and make full use of the limited space of a green belt created with the surrounding environment to match the theme sculpture group. Embodiment of the macro and micro dual regional characteristics.

How do you know? Kangsi Art welcome you to share with us the story of sculpture!

London City Sculpture

0 comments
Transit of London, the city 's heroic sculptures and London historical complex impressed me deeply.
We visit delegation stayed in the river Thames in the Royal Horse guards hotel. Near the hotel, there is a Royal Tank Regiment Memorial sculptures. City Sculpture masters in 1945 to participate in World War II Royal Tank Regiment 5 comet tank warrior, respectively is the commander, gunner, loader, gunner and driver. The group sculpture shows the battle tank warrior unique among gay spirit. In June 13, 2000, the Royal Tank Regiment colonel-in-chief, Queen Elizabeth S had personally for the sculpture unveiled. The very next day came to London in the morning, I from the riverside park morning back to the hotel on the way, after the Royal Tank Regiment memorial City Sculpture, suddenly found in front of the sculpture was placed on two new flowers. The hotel doorman told me, here almost every day people spontaneously to the sculpture to send flowers. Suddenly, the military 's pride in my heart arise spontaneously. Thus, closer to me with this strange city emotional distance.

London is a world famous tourist city, famous for having many cultural relics and historic sites. But the heroic City Sculptures and monuments are the city's unique landscape. General Nelson and the Duke of Wellington was defeated Napoleon's famous British military family, is also the British people most advocates of the hero. Located in the centre of London 's Trafalgar Square to commemorate the famous battle of Trafalgar and the construction of the port. In October 21, 1805, British admiral Nelson commanded the British fleet of France and Spain combined fleet at Trafalgar, Hong Kong Sea encounter, the British fleet outnumbered, make law, West fleet in the battle of waterloo. But unfortunately, when the battle ended in victory, general Nelson because the bullet. 5.3 meters tall statue of general Nelson was the sculptor Bailey works, in up to 56 meters of the giant pillars. Stone walls with the life of Nelson the command of the four famous battle of bronze, bronze with naval battle captured bronze cannons cast. Wellington square is located in the Hyde Park, the Buckingham Palace and Green Park junction. In the famous battle of Waterloo, Wellington, commanding the British made Napoleon failed completely. Square as a memorial to the Duke of Wellington in the battle of Waterloo in the defeat of Napoleon built. The square of the Triumphal Arch in Wellington is one of the landmarks of London, Triumphal Arch on the sculpture of up to 40 feet, is the UK's largest copper sculpture.
London is a bustling, London is a solemn. In the famous Whitehall street, a war memorial and World War II women's monument, a British Field Marshal Montgomerie, Prince George, Duke of Cambridge statue. World War II women's monument by sculptor Mills creation, the relief is a 17 set of different women dress, they represent in second during World War II women's roles and their in these positions made outstanding contribution. In St Jam es's Park, there is a memorial to a World War II war, died in the royal soldiers memorial. In Tower of London to Fort side, to commemorate the dead militia monument in World War ii. In Westminster Abbey, specifically with the RAF chapel. Church stained glass painted to participate in World War II 68 RAF squadron badge. These different style, different types of City Sculptures and monuments, make and luxurious London City played a vigorous stirring gas.
London citizens advocating history and heroes. According to the embassy attache office comrade who, on October 21st general Nelson sacrifice memorial day, there are many citizens to Trafalgar Square, mourning for the British Empire immortal feats of the hero. A year in London 's biggest New Year celebrations are also held in Trafalgar square. On remembrance Sunday, a citizen of London will spontaneously to Whitehall Street Memorial, held a solemn Memorial ceremony. Buckingham Palace is the palace, guards the ceremony is open to the outside world. Royal Guard takes place daily ritual, in the military and password sound for various queue show, for the visitors. During the war, WWII Memorial Day, the queen of England, from the prime minister to the ordinary citizen, will invariably wear a red flower, in memory of those for the national honor and dedication spirit and lost their lives in the war 's fellow.
City sculpture is the symbol of the spirit of the city. London is a very diverse city, brought together from around the world to residents as well as multiple ethnic, religious and cultural, the language used in the city more than 300. I think, London cohesion, although due to its prosperous economy, flourishing commercial and loose of the household registration system, and the spirit of education should also be an important reason.

Three characteristics of city sculpture

0 comments
City sculpture shows the city 's development and change, is also a history of the age, will see it and feel it, you can feel the city's atmosphere.
1 humanistic
Any one city, has its development laws. Its historical background, economic development, population status, decided a unique cultural atmosphere. City culture atmosphere in certain extent determines the basic situation of city sculpture.
2 historic
City sculpture as our historical illustrations, recorded at different times in history and civilization in history. The different sculpture are recorded in different periods, the living conditions of the people, state and spiritual pursuit, look at different times public sculpture is like reading in different textbooks, every times for different people to think and draw lessons from. A city is the product of history, are different from other city historical tradition. In every city are hidden behind the rich humanistic history and allusions.
3 symbolic
Each city has its own culture and history background, city public sculpture is the sculpture in its content and form, embodies the city and the environmental characteristics. Such as the Triumphal Arch in France, as long as we referred to Triumphal Arch, would immediately think of France is the sculpture of particular cultural and historical background, makes Triumphal Arch the French flag.
