See the "Four Seasons of Fun: Folk Art from the National Art Museum of China" exhibition

The Four Seasons of Fun exhibition held at the National Art Museum of China before the Spring Festival attracts many visitors. This exhibition is part of the National Art Museum of China's "Collection Activation" series, featuring nearly 200 pieces (sets) of folk art from the museum's collection. The exhibition is divided into four sections: "Prayers and Fun," "Life and Fun," "Childhood and Fun," and "Education and Fun," to interpret the aesthetic context of "Four Seasons of Fun." Wu Weishan, director of the National Art Museum of China, said that Chinese folk art is full of the aesthetic qualities of "play" and "fun." The combination of "play" and "fun" expresses a philosophy of life, reminding people to pursue a meaningful and valuable lifestyle and life goals, and to constantly seek and discover the joys and beauty of life. Rooted in the soil of agricultural culture, Chinese folk art is not only a reflection of the aesthetics of folk culture, but also a reflection of the spirit of life of the Chinese people living in harmony with nature. Traditional Chinese culture emphasizes the unity of man and nature, and advocates the harmonious unity of man and nature. Similarly, in the world of Chinese folk art, whether in the sky or on the ground, past or future, macro or micro, all things can be intertwined and integrated, following the order of the four seasons, embracing the beauty of heaven and earth, and full of the creative passion of artisans. These folk art works are not only the personal aesthetic practice of the artisans, but also bring warmth and joy to people, making the long-standing folk aesthetics of China thrive and remain vibrant on this land.
