Brief introduction of scenic spots in Qingdao Seaside Sculpture Garden;
Qingdao Seaside Sculpture Garden is located on the bank of Huanghaibin in Qingdao East New District. It consists of an indoor sculpture art museum and an outdoor sculpture park with a total planned area of 8 hectares and a total investment of more than 40 million yuan. Among them, the interior is more than 3,800 square meters, mainly collecting modern Chinese and foreign sculptures; The park displays outstanding outdoor sculptures at home and abroad, and its main function is to display the representative works and famous works of modern sculptors in China in the 20th century.
There are two sightseeing routes along the long axis of the park, one is along the coastal coastline, and there are flat walkways for tourists to enjoy the sea view. At the same time, garden sketches such as square, sculpture gallery, sculpture flower bed and stone carving lighting will be opened. Another tour route is the main pedestrian walkway that runs through the green scenic spots in the park. With the ups and downs of the terrain, there are sculptures, rest squares, pools, waterfalls, green walls, underwater green sculptures, sculpture exhibition areas, dry pools and avenues paved with pebbles along the way. The central part is sunken plaza Pool, which provides visitors with pleasant outdoor rest space, unique squares, neatly trimmed plant sculptures, natural winding streams, waterfalls and regular pool squares, which fully embodies European gardening techniques and is in harmony with Qingdao's urban style. Qingdao Sculpture Art Museum is the crowning touch of Qingdao Donghai Road Environmental Art Project. The museum will combine outdoor sculpture with indoor sculpture, urban sculpture with easel sculpture, which will create a unique sculpture cultural landscape and attract more Chinese and foreign tourists and citizens to enjoy, visit and relax here. The sea, mountains and beautiful sculptures set each other off to achieve the best allocation of artistic resources and natural resources.
Since the May 4th Movement, the modern sculpture art in China has made great progress, and many excellent sculptures are created by senior artists. However, due to historical and economic reasons, there has been no professional sculpture art museum in China, which makes sculpture researchers and learners lack a fixed exchange place, and it is difficult to fully understand the history and present situation of modern sculpture in China. Many excellent sculptures have gone through many vicissitudes, and most of them have been damaged or lost. It has become the requirement of the times to establish a professional sculpture art museum with academic research function, collect, display and protect excellent sculpture works, and provide a place for sculpture art research and learners.
Qingdao's construction of the first professional and academic sculpture art museum in China will be a great event for the sculpture circles in China and the art circles in China. If we can seize the historical opportunity, organize a series of excellent works in the history of modern sculpture in China, and establish a first-class outdoor sculpture group at Donghai Road Outdoor Sculpture Park at home and abroad, Qingdao will probably become a sculpture art research and development base in East China. It is of positive practical significance to further optimize the humanistic environment of Qingdao's opening to the outside world, enhance the cultural connotation of the city, improve the cultural quality of the public, and shape the image of Qingdao as an international city in 2 1 century.
In order to cooperate with the completion of Qingdao Sculpture Art Museum, Qingdao Municipal People's Government, Central Academy of Fine Arts and China Academy of Fine Arts jointly held the completion ceremony of Qingdao Sculpture Art Museum and a series of sculpture academic activities facing the new century. These include: China Contemporary Sculpture Invitational Exhibition, Hope Star: Selected Sculpture Graduation Works Exhibition of China Higher Academy of Fine Arts, China Sculpture Seminar in the 20th Century, etc.
China Contemporary Sculpture Invitational Exhibition invited more than 100 representative works of 35 young and middle-aged sculptors from all over the country, showing the latest achievements of contemporary sculpture art creation in China with academic value. The works on display focus on the simultaneous advancement of artistic concept, expression form and material application, and grasp the transformation of Chinese and western traditional sculpture art to modernization at a deeper level. Independent cultural, social and public value orientation and more essential and pure characteristics of sculpture creation. At the same time, combined with the regional environment of the seashore garden green belt in the eastern new city where Qingdao Sculpture Art Museum is located and the humanistic environment of Qingdao as a coastal open city, a scenic tourist city and a famous historical and cultural city, a number of sculptures are displayed, which are contemporary, artistic and ornamental.
