藝術(shù)盛宴 市民節(jié)日

記者趕到位于杭州小河西路366號(hào)的杭州工藝美術(shù)博物館，已是中午11點(diǎn)半。然而，出乎意料的是，展廳里依舊人頭攢動(dòng)，絲毫沒(méi)有午休的意思。用彩色雨傘搭建的入口頂棚，五彩繽紛，傳遞著節(jié)日的歡樂(lè)氣氛。

在展廳轉(zhuǎn)了兩圈，找不到一張宣傳資料，問(wèn)及工作人員，她滿(mǎn)臉的歉意:“真的不好意思，今天已經(jīng)有很多人問(wèn)過(guò)我同樣的問(wèn)題了。昨天開(kāi)幕式涌進(jìn)了太多人，完全超過(guò)了我們的估計(jì)，所以宣傳手冊(cè)連夜加印，今天一早還是被一搶而光。有的大媽大爺自己拿一份，還要給親戚朋友帶一份，留作紀(jì)念?！甭?tīng)完此番解釋?zhuān)苫笙Я耍膊⒉贿z憾:人氣太旺，說(shuō)明展覽值得看。

9月8日，九家全國(guó)主流媒體聯(lián)合主辦的“對(duì)話(huà)與共振—全國(guó)九省市藝術(shù)聯(lián)展(杭州站)”于杭州工藝美術(shù)博物館正式拉開(kāi)序幕，這也是都市快報(bào)“壹加藝”首屆杭州藝術(shù)節(jié)的揭幕展。在接下去十幾天的時(shí)間里，九個(gè)城市近200位藝術(shù)家的500余件不同風(fēng)格的作品匯集一起展出。參展的所有作品均是由各家主流媒體精選出的，收藏意義和升值潛力巨大。杭州的聯(lián)展之前，該展已經(jīng)在成都、廣州、西安、上海、濟(jì)南、武漢、南京、沈陽(yáng)等八座城市成功展出，所到之處皆是全城轟動(dòng)，成為當(dāng)?shù)厮囆g(shù)盛事。

不同于其他的藝術(shù)展覽，今天的展覽真可謂老少皆宜:

有年過(guò)花甲的老者，互相攙扶，在一幅水墨畫(huà)作前竊竊私語(yǔ)，絲毫不理會(huì)周?chē)男鷩?，時(shí)光自顧自地停留;

有背著旅行包的年輕人，也許是一位剛來(lái)杭州旅行的游客，有幸遇到了這場(chǎng)藝術(shù)的盛宴，在欣賞西湖美景的同時(shí)也收獲了文藝杭州的感動(dòng)，相機(jī)咔嚓咔嚓拍不完的喜歡;

更引人注目的還是那些穿著花衣服的孩子們，他們?cè)陲L(fēng)格各異的畫(huà)作、來(lái)來(lái)往往的人流中變得異常興奮，脖子上掛著相機(jī)，看到好看的東西神氣地拍下來(lái)，有時(shí)候還會(huì)豎起耳朵聆聽(tīng)周?chē)藢?duì)作品的評(píng)論……

“你看，這幅畫(huà)的是什么?”父親指著一幅畫(huà)問(wèn)身邊的孩子?！笆俏骱??！薄澳悄憧次骱叾加行┦裁窗?”“嗯，有柳樹(shù)，有小船，還有橋。”“知道這是什么橋嗎，這座橋叫‘?dāng)鄻颉?/p>

這是展覽現(xiàn)場(chǎng)最尋常的畫(huà)面。

和身邊的一位家長(zhǎng)聊天，他說(shuō):“在西方國(guó)家，帶孩子去博物館、美術(shù)館看展覽其實(shí)是一件很平常的事情，就像我們周末帶孩子逛公園一樣，把它當(dāng)做一種消遣。而這種消遣恰恰能拓寬孩子的視野和思維方式，為孩子開(kāi)啟一扇藝術(shù)的大門(mén)。但中國(guó)的父母為了培養(yǎng)孩子的藝術(shù)修養(yǎng)，往往是給孩子報(bào)各種各樣的什么興趣班或者所謂才藝班，將孩子牽絆在課堂與書(shū)本之中。其實(shí)，我們也可以學(xué)習(xí)西方的做法，帶孩子去看展覽，讓孩子在潛移默化中增長(zhǎng)藝術(shù)細(xì)胞，提升藝術(shù)素養(yǎng)。”

這位父親在不經(jīng)意間恰恰也道出了此次展覽的主辦方都市快報(bào)的心愿。在展館的序言里，《都市快報(bào)》的總編輯楊星寫(xiě)道:“我們希望讀者們?cè)诿襟w搭建的‘九城展’平臺(tái)上，讀懂藝術(shù)、享受藝術(shù)并擁有自己喜歡的藝術(shù)作品?！蔽蚁胨^的擁有并不一定是占為己有，而是形成自己獨(dú)特的解讀和欣賞，在與畫(huà)作交流的過(guò)程中收獲屬于讀者自己的感悟和體會(huì)。

在這里，你看不到專(zhuān)業(yè)的學(xué)究氣，你看到的是大眾的多樣化解讀;在這里，你看不到高雅藝術(shù)矜持的姿態(tài)，你看到的是形態(tài)豐富的生活畫(huà)卷;在這里，你沒(méi)有看不懂的技巧和筆法，只有你喜歡或者不喜歡的圖畫(huà)……

這是都市快報(bào)繼西湖音樂(lè)節(jié)之后，在城市文化建設(shè)中所打造的又一個(gè)品牌活動(dòng)。在近兩個(gè)月的時(shí)間里，會(huì)有多場(chǎng)藝術(shù)展覽揭幕，各種藝術(shù)沙龍、畫(huà)家主題日活動(dòng)相繼舉行。包括硯邊湖畔—中國(guó)美術(shù)學(xué)院中國(guó)畫(huà)系教師“精”品展、生活與藝術(shù)—杭州(中國(guó))首屆居室版畫(huà)藝術(shù)展、淘瓷生活—杭州當(dāng)代陶瓷器物藝術(shù)展等。

9月在杭州，看一場(chǎng)展覽，聽(tīng)一次講座，留一件原作。杭州的秋天很美。杭州的每個(gè)秋天都很美。杭州今年的秋天，還會(huì)更美。□

Joint Art Exhibition Attracts Crowds in Hangzhou

By Zhu Fengjuan

September 8， 2012 witnesses the opening of the First Hangzhou Art Festival at Hangzhou Arts and Crafts Museum. In the following ten plus days， about 500 artworks from nearly 200 artists from nine cities across China are on display. The joint exhibition of artists from nine cities was staged in the eight cities including Beijing， Shanghai and Guangzhou.

The exhibition differs from other art exhibitions in that the artworks are selected by media in preliminary rounds and， unlike avant-garde and other hard-to-understand art styles， the paintings on display represent an aesthetics that appeals to the ordinary Chinese people. The previous exhibitions in the eight cities allured huge crowds in.

Hangzhou is no exception. Visitors， young and old， men and women， flock to the museum to view the broad range of artworks from some best artists across the country.

There are so many visitors for a reason. They read of the exhibition in City Express， a daily newspaper based in Hangzhou.

City Express， the sponsor of the Hangzhou Art Festival， is a high-profile player in the cultural undertakings of the city. Another big event it hosts is West lake Musical Festival in April. The current festival spans September and October， featuring a series of exhibitions， salons， and theme days of individual artists.

The Hangzhou Art Festival is designed to attract the largest visitor crowd. The newspaper wants visitors to come to the joint exhibition of artists from nine cities to find and appreciate art that appeals to them. These artworks are meant to cultivate city residents’ appreciation.

That is why visitors do not see the academic and the esoteric images. The artworks on display are closely associated with popular tastes and inspire interpretations. Visitors see no subjects that are beyond and above them， and encounter no techniques that puzzle them or turn them away. There are only artworks of everyday life; visitors relate to and respond to these paintings with enthusiasm.

Children are a big crowd at the exhibition. Parents are most willing to bring them along. Many parents bring their children to see the exhibition largely because they read somewhere that visiting a gallery or a museum is part of a weekend routine for many children in the west. In Hangzhou， parents are willing to get their children into art training courses but they rarely find good exhibitions for their children to see. That is because there are not many around. No wonder the exhibition attracts so many parents and their children.
