The exhibition of missionary achievements of “Happy on the Plum Shoots” and the theme exhibition have formed a beautiful scene of “big exhibition, small exhibition and small exhibition to promote big exhibition”. The exhibition was jointly held by the Municipal Museum and the Art College of Jinhua Vocational and Technical College.

From September 21st to the first ten days of November, Jinhua Museum launched an exhibition of “Happy Plum Blossoms”, in which 88 works about plum blossoms from Ming Dynasty to modern times were exhibited, including works by famous painters such as Jin Nong and Zhao Zhiqian in Qing Dynasty, and yi pin of plum blossoms by modern masters such as Huang Binhong and Wu Bozhi, with vertical axes, fan faces, album pages, etc., which were filled with the empty and quiet spirit of literati painting and the spirit of books.
Plum blossom has been the theme of painters and literati since ancient times, and it is one of the “three friends of cold age”. In Chinese painting, it is also called “four gentlemen” with orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. The perseverance of plum blossom has always been admired by ancient painters. Therefore, the literati constantly entrust their own aesthetic feelings through poems and paintings. In order to better inherit the spirit of traditional Chinese painting, the Municipal Museum has launched a variety of plum blossom theme education activities, focusing on learning plum blossom paintings, attracting the active participation of many audiences.
According to reports, the plum blossom theme education activities corresponding to “Happy Plum Shoots” have held seven activities, including DIY creation of plum blossom group fans, copying of famous paintings by masters, creation of ink paintings of plum blossoms, creation of blowing paintings, and DIY creation of essential oil soap. Each time, the number of applicants exceeded expectations, and the newly launched “Second Classroom” of the Municipal Museum was full, with more than 400 spectators enthusiastically participating. In the meantime, museum staff, art teachers from Dongyuan Primary School, teachers from Jin Vocational College, art training institutions and other units supported each other and showed their magical powers. They taught the audience different plum blossom creation methods such as line drawing, ink painting, finger painting and creative blowing painting, and completed many creative works.
The reporter saw that the works of the “Happy Plum Shoots” missionary achievement exhibition were dazzling and varied, and the plum blossoms in the eyes of children were so colorful. Xu Ziyan, a second-grade student of Xiyuan Primary School in the city, participated in two activities and found it very interesting. On the same day, her collage works were also hung in the exhibition hall, and she also spoke on stage as a representative of the audience. The little girl whose interest was stimulated said that she liked visiting museums very much, and she would participate in more museum activities in the future. Author: Ye Jun Wu Huixian
