B
Ancient Chinese folk painting and many other art styles have been passed down from generation(一代人)to generation, and are still practised in different parts of China. Here's a look at four forms of Chinese folk art.
Chinese opera is a traditional type of Chinese drama(戏剧). There are about 360 kinds of operas in total. The most famous ones include Beijing opera, Kunqu opera, Yue opera, Yu opera, Sichuan opera, Fujian opera, Hebei opera, Huangmei opera and so on. Among these, Beijing opera is the most popular.
Shadow play(皮影戏)dates back to the Western Han Dynasty in Shaanxi more than 1,000 years ago. The moving figures are controlled by folk artists, with music and singing along. It is the world's first art form of motion(运动)pictures with sound, so it is seen as the "ancestor"(原型)of modern films. Today this art form is still popular in northern China.
Paper-cutting is one of the most popular traditional decorative arts in China. It can be seen across China and now has different local genres. Paper-cuts are usually used to decorate gates and windows during festivals.
The kite was first made by Chinese people. According to legend, the earliest kite in China was a wooden bird by Mo Di in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Later his student Lu Ban improved the design and used bamboo as the material to make a kite. Today, kite-flying activities can be found in many parts of China. The Shandong Weifang Kite Festival is held every year and attracts lots of kite lovers and travellers.
