If you think young Chinese are not interested in their country’s culture, a TV program has just showed you are wrong.
Down the ages, both paintings and poetry (诗歌) are records of Chinese civilization (文明). But how do you make them related to the I—have—no—time smartphone and social media youth?
A TV program named China in Poetry and Painting (《诗画中国》) is now airing on CCTV. Millions of young people are interested in the program because it shows the paintings and poems in a creative way.
Every time, five old paintings and several poems on related themes are introduced. With each painting, a performance such as singing, dancing and wushu is staged telling the story behind it. Besides (除了) performances, digital 3D is also used to make the woods, mountains, stones and waterfalls in the paintings alive.
After each performance, the program’s host (主持人), some experts and the performers sit together at the round table to enjoy the poems and the painting. The poems fit well with the painting and help people better understand it.
“Our team makes this program to help people look deeply at the Chinese poems and paintings so that they can understand the traditional culture better,” says Tian Mei, chief director of the program.
