2022-06-27
The bun is high and the hairpin is slightly trembling; The skirt is fluttering and elegant - a group of girls with an average age of 21 have made the painting of beautiful women with hairpins, the treasure of the town hall of Liao Bo, live on the stage. In order to welcome the Liaoning regional trial of the 13th Chinese Dance "Lotus Award" classical dance competition to be held on the 28th, Shenyang Art Troupe is stepping up rehearsal of the participating dance "cherish spring with hairpins" (tentative name). This dance is based on the famous painting of beautiful women with hairpins in the Tang Dynasty. It is a cross art work created under the guidance of the concept of cultural and tourism integration. It is also an active exploration and beneficial attempt to trace the origin of local culture. Determined to make cultural relics "live" On the afternoon of the 26th, in the rehearsal hall of Shenyang Art Troupe, the dance teacher was leading the performers to perform decomposition actions over and over again. During the break, some girls were so tired that they lay flat on the ground. "The 'Lotus Award' is the highest award in China's dance industry. It is selected every four years and will be held in Shenyang for the first time in 2022. As the main venue, all art academies and troupes in the province attach great importance to it and are actively preparing for the battle." Yesterday, tenghongjiang, deputy head of Shenyang Art Troupe and one of the directors of the dance "cherish spring with hairpin flowers", said that in order to meet the competition, the whole team rehearsed every day from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Conception is the soul of classical dance. Tenghongjiang said that in order to pay tribute to the excellent traditional culture and carry forward the local culture, Shenyang Art Troupe specially invited dongbaohou, deputy curator of Liaobo, and other experts to discuss for many times. "The initial topics include the spring outing of the lady of the state of Guo, the painting of beautiful women with hairpin flowers and the long live Tongtian calligraphy, which are all the fine collections of the Liao Museum. Finally, after several discussions, it was decided to take the painting of beautiful women with hairpin flowers as the creation background and make the cultural relics' live 'through dance." The painting of beautiful women with hairpins was painted by Zhou Fang of the Tang Dynasty. It depicts the scene of six brightly dressed women playing in flowers, butterflies, cranes and dogs at the turn of spring and summer. "According to the experts' research, the graceful women of the Tang Dynasty in the paintings may be competing for 'fragrance' to attract butterflies. Taking this as a script, we arranged the 7-minute dance into a story line, which in turn were 'competing for beauty with the whole makeup', 'competing for fragrance and beauty', 'attracting butterflies with a group of incense', 'attracting butterflies as the leader' and 'let's see the red flowers'. At the last moment of the dance, the paintings were restored aesthetically, leaving a deep impression on the audience, like a living picture of a beautiful woman with hairpin flowers." All of a sudden, it was frozen on the stage. " Tenghongjiang said. Every detail of chuangpai has been polished several times For the story of cherishing spring with hairpin flowers, the greatest difficulty in creating platoon lies in the understanding of traditional culture. "At the initial stage of creation, we invited experts from Liao Bo to train the actors for many times to let them have an in-depth understanding of the history and culture of the Tang Dynasty and the connotation of the picture of beautiful women with hairpins, which is very important for the actors to improve their artistic cultivation and expressiveness." Yesterday, xuxiaoxia, one of the directors of the story of cherishing spring with hairpins, said that every movement detail in the dance had been modified and polished many times. Just from which angle the little lady entered the dance, she had repeatedly modified it more than a dozen times. The lack of experience in Han and Tang dance is a big test for Shenyang Art Troupe. "Before, some of these performers danced ballet, some danced folk dances, but not Han and Tang dances. Unlike other dances, Han and Tang dances need to show restraint and introversion." Xuxiaoxia said that in addition to inviting Han and Tang dance experts from Beijing Dance Academy to give guidance, Shenyang Art Troupe also invited many experts from the province to give guidance on dance names, costumes, music, dance vocabulary and other aspects, which finally deepened the attributes of Han and Tang dance and made the dance more beautiful in Han and Tang culture. Tracing the source and carrying forward the local excellent culture Making cultural relics "live" and highlighting cultural traceability is a major pursuit of the book. For this reason, the dance has highly restored the painting of beautiful women with hairpins from many details. The costumes of the actors are restored after careful comparison of colors and patterns according to the high-definition scan of the picture of beautiful women with hairpins; The "symbols" in the painting of beautiful women with hairpin flowers are five kinds of huge hairpin flowers, such as peony and lotus, on the heads of five ladies. Based on this, the stylist handmade five kinds of hairpin flowers with silk, striving to restore each flower petal and leaf to the painting. In addition to the scarlet clothes, towering cloud temples and huge hairpin flowers, the dance also highly restored the appearance in the painting of hairpin ladies. The ladies in the painting are all "moth wing eyebrows" with upward oblique stabs. In order to restore this small detail, the actors need to shave off their eyebrows for modeling. Some girls are reluctant to give up and get angry. In order to convince these young girls, director tenghongjiang said, "I'll shave with you." he shaved off his eyebrows first. Although he has gone through many twists and turns, when recalling the creation and arrangement of the story of cherishing spring with hairpins, tenghongjiang believes that, This dance also brought him many inspirations: "the story of cherishing spring with hairpin flowers" The cross-border integration of dance, painting and other art categories is an active exploration and beneficial attempt of Shenyang Art Troupe and Liao Bo cultural institutions. There are many fine cultural relics in Liaobo. We can make more cultural relics' live 'in the form of dance, present the beauty of excellent traditional culture, highlight cultural confidence, and make contributions to the promotion of local excellent culture.
