fast book
gossip do not speak, to Ji'nan to listen to the fast book
Beijing has a crosstalk, the Northeast has a two people, to Shandong to listen to the Shandong fast book. In the 1 shop owner Mei Aoxue of the kiosk street, the most representative of Ji'nan culture is the express book. In the heart of Mei Ao Xue, if he opened the old Ji'nan art gallery, if he could spot a leopard and map the whole fast Book Culture of Ji'nan, his ultimate dream would be realized.
in the afternoon of August 30th, Mei Ao Xue is helping others to make plaques outside his shop. From the age of seven or eight, he began to contact the art of fast books, sculpture, calligraphy, painting and other arts. He began to leave long hair until the age of more than 20. Although all kinds of carvings, cloth products and jade antiques are displayed in the shop, he is often invited to play Allegro, show books, and sometimes serve as marshal. You can make money in a month. He said. He can not even know which skill is the most profitable. He cares more about his shop and his art.
in addition to wishing to speak for the Ji'nan fast book, Mei Ao Xue has begun to inherit his artistic skills. I have a 6 year old apprentice who won this year's.Amp, lsquo star torch.Amp and rsquo China Youth art talent award. He said he had taken pictures of himself and his children when they won the prize. Now he has set up an art team to follow his own fast book, with more than 10 people. According to him, at present, in addition to the professional quyi troupe, few people in the country teach fast books. Speaking of whether he was staying in Qu Shui Ting Street, he pointed his head and said a plain and real word: he wanted to do something for Ji'nan culture.
Lu embroidery
don't mention me, still embroider better!
there will be a question: the face plastic, the rabbit, the paper-cut, and so on in many cities, what can truly represent the old Ji'nan? Except for the Allegro, I'm afraid only Lu embroidery. The owner of a shop on the street took the reporter straight into the 15 street of Qu Shui ting. Here, Liu Jingcheng, 66, is the only old lady who can be embroidered by Lu. Not to mention me, I do not want to be famous, and embroidered better! The old lady told reporters that he and some people in the folk mastery of embroidery skills have formed a handicraft workshop, and the other two other workers embroider better, not only hand embroidery, machine embroidery, but also the most Ji'nan features of hair embroidery.
Liu Jingcheng itself is an old household in Qu Shui Ting Street. He learned embroidery and knitting with her mother from his childhood. When he was young, he entered the Ji'nan Lu embroidery factory to practice the present craft. In a more than 30 square meter room, all kinds of woolen woven animals are everywhere. The clothes embroidered by Lu embroidery were all hidden in the cupboard by the old man. You don't know how well our factory workers embroidered, they scared you to death. Said Liu Jingcheng in a lively speech. On the clothes she took out, the reporter saw that the stitches were stitched up in a compact and seamless array of patterns.Amp; mdash.amp; mdash.amp; mdash butterflies, flowers, pomegranates. It is a difficult point for Lu embroidery to make a uniform embroidery. She introduced it.
at present, Liu Jingcheng has received several apprentices to teach Lu Xiu. She does not want to lose her skills from her own hands. At present, Ji'nan will not be the majority of Lu embroidery. The authentic Lu embroidery was not learned in 3-5 years. Now the young people are unable to learn. She said that her youngest apprentice is over 30 years old.
Photography
80 for the whole street to create the old city art atmosphere
originally chosen in the Qu Shui Ting Street, that is to find a place with historical background to the store to
to set off, so that the store appears undrifting. Li Xiaochen, the boss of the old town story shop owner, is clear about his location and the reasons for choosing Qu Shui Ting Street. As a feedback, he hopes to create an art atmosphere of the old city through the form of photography, like three lanes and seven alleys in Fuzhou.
as the first owner of a folk art shop in Qu Shui Ting Street, Li Xiaochen is not a multi - old man, but a young man less than 30 years old. At the end of 2010, when he was ready to open a photography shop, he felt that the folkloric cultural atmosphere of the Furong street was destroyed by the catering industry and eventually chose a relatively quiet street of kiosk, but in the beginning he was surrounded by a barbecue stall. "There is no way to represent the image of old Ji'nan only two streets." After
until August 2011, the barbecue stalls were thoroughly cured, and the whole environment finally coincided with its original idea, and business also improved. "The flowing spring, the old buildings, the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, that's what we want." With the improvement of the environment, Li Xiaochen changed a slightly larger shop in Qu Shui Ting Street. At present, in addition to earning 50 thousand yuan / year rent, he also led 7 college students to take care of the store.
enters Li Xiao Chen shop, basically all old style radio, flashlight, wardrobe, Zhongshan suit and other old props, his photography style is also most simple. "At present, many shops have been consulted first. I feel that there is a smell of folk art before finding a house for rent coordination by the neighborhood committee." Li Xiaochen said.
