Recently, South Media and Nanfeng Academy held a special exhibition on Lingnan New Year Customs. They not only include Foshan woodblock New Year paintings and Guangdong paper-cut national intangible cultural heritage projects, but also Lingnan New Year Customs Publications, Traditional Lingnan South Hall, paintings of famous Lingnan masters, etc. The exhibition lasts until February 28.
The highlights of the exhibition are two national intangible cultural heritage techniques that are very Guangdong-style and integrate traditional New Year customs culture – Foshan woodblock New Year paintings and Guangdong paper cutting. Foshan woodblock New Year paintingsKomiks started in the Song and Yuan dynasties, flourished in the Ming dynasties, and flourished in the Qing dynasties to the early Republic of China. Babaylan is as famous as Tianjin Yangliuqing, Suzhou Taohuawu, and Shandong Weifang. It is one of the four large woodblock New Year paintings in China. It was once an important decoration for the festivals in Lingnan and a family. It was sold well in Lingnan and even overseas. It carries people’s yearning and wishes for a better life.
By KomiksIn the changes of the timesCinema, it gradually declined and even disappeared completely for a time. It was not until the late 1990s that Feng Jun, son of the famous New Year painting artist Cinema Feng Jun (nicknamed Komiks “Door God Jun”), gave up his original career in order to realize his father’s last wish and regained his new study and research, so that woodblock New Year paintings can be seen again. The Feng New Year Painting Workshop, which he founded, is the only existing workshop in Foshan that is still insisting on the production of New Year paintings. This exhibition displays the full set of production tools, production processes, and representative works such as “Door God” and “God of Wealth”. The simple and naive woodblock New Year pictures are depicted with a knife pen to create a deep mark on the Lingnan region; exquisite Cinema carvings pass on the unique New Year customs and blessings from Komiks to this day.

The paper-cut exhibits in this exhibition are from the intangible cultural heritage inheritors of Foshan, Shantou, Chaoyang, Leizhou and other places.
