Colorful Guizhou Network , Zhongwang News News (Reporter Ying Teng) 2021 is the centenary of the Communist Party of China, as an important carrier of cultural self-confidence, Guizhou Provincial Museum (hereinafter referred to as Guibo) through the "Centennial Journey Guizhou Story - Cultural Relics Documentary Exhibition" (hereinafter referred to as the "Centennial Exhibition") "Centennial Is just the Wind and Glory" theme archive documentary exhibition, will create a "Guizhou perspective" and the introduction of "national narrative" to meet the needs of people at different levels to the greatest extent.
At important historical nodes, combined with the collection of cultural relics, it is the mission of the museum in the new era to launch important exhibitions that carry forward the main theme of the times in a timely manner.
Since the completion and opening of the new museum in 2017, Guibo has successively launched the "Remembering the Entrustment not to Forget the Original Intention to Take the New Long March Road - Greeting the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China", the "Our 40 Years" exhibition to commemorate the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up, and the Centennial Exhibition and the "Centennial Just the Wind and Prosperity" Theme Archive Documentary Exhibition.
According to the data, the Centenary Exhibition alone attracts an average of more than 5,000 people to visit the exhibition every day. Among them, the audience under the age of 18 accounted for 21%, and the audience aged 19 to 60 accounted for 74%.
The data feedback is not only the transformation of the audience group, but also the effective use of red cultural relics resources by Guibo to expand the connotation of party history learning and education, and open up the "museum tour mode" of young people's "strong faith, follow the party" ideological and political learning.
From the "national narrative" to the "Guizhou perspective", how does Guibo tell the story of Guizhou well? From "exhibition" to "exhibition", what kind of "reshaping and integration" will Guibo begin? Guibo in the new era, what are the "Easter eggs" worth looking forward to? A few days ago, the colorful Guizhou network reporter conducted an exclusive interview with Li Fei, director of the Guizhou Provincial Museum.
Li Fei, director of the Guizhou Provincial Museum
Use "dialect" and "Mandarin"
Tell the story of a hundred years to spread the strong voice of the times
The charm of the red exhibition is inseparable from the strong appeal of red culture. "Baptism" is the word that the audience uses the most when expressing the feeling of hindsight.
As an important platform for displaying excellent traditional culture and carrying forward the core values of socialism, how to make the main theme exhibition that is easy to be high and low, break the old routine to "circle fans"? Guibo will tell the story of the history of the Party in two languages.
"The Story of Guizhou on a Hundred Years of Journey - Cultural Relics Documentary Exhibition" attracts an average of more than 5,000 people per day
"Jointly sponsored by the Guizhou Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, the Party History Research Office of the CPC Guizhou Provincial Committee, and the Guizhou Provincial Archives, and hosted by the Guizhou Provincial Museum, the Centennial Exhibition takes the centennial party history as the main line, focuses on the century-old changes in Guizhou under the leadership of the party, and adopts the 'Guizhou perspective'." Li Fei told reporters that during the period, Guibo also cooperated with the Guizhou Provincial Archives Bureau to introduce the theme archives documentary exhibition of the Central Archives "A Hundred Years is Just a Prosperous Style", more than 500 precious historical archives, from the perspective of "national narrative", showing the touching stories of Chinese communists adhering to their original mission.
"The exhibition is the core cultural product of Guibo and is a special language. If the Centenary Is about 'dialects', then "One Hundred Years is Just the Wind and Glory" is about 'Mandarin'. Li Fei said that the two exhibitions combine the "national narrative" with the "Guizhou perspective", seeing the spirit of history through things, plus a variety of exhibition methods, which is relatively easy to break the audience's sense of physical and psychological distance. And the audience voted with their feet, setting off the "red exhibition fever", which is the best proof.
The exhibition meets the needs of young people and tells the red story well
The charm of the red exhibition is inseparable from the innovation of the young curatorial team.
"The process of curating is the process of Guibo people profoundly studying party history." Li Fei said that the outline of the Centenary Exhibition was written by four young people, and after many revisions and collective discussions, it was checked by the Party History Research Office of the Guizhou Provincial CPC Committee. "While learning history clearly and rationally, learning history to increase credibility, and learning history to revere virtue, Guibo people strive to learn history and practice it, give play to the educational function of 'one exhibition to see Guizhou for a hundred years', and accept the inspection of the audience."
When the "major reform" is in progress
Guibo is undergoing reinvention and integration after five years
Limit the flow, make reservations, and see more points; new, break the circle, and create popularity. Combing through the keywords of Guizhou Wenbo in 2021, the reporter found that with the changes in the number and types of museums in the province, behind the increasing prosperity of the museum industry, the increasing competition between the museums is highlighted.
When the museum changes from the "elite culture" of the past to the "mass culture" in the true sense, and ranks among the "national first-class museums", how to avoid homogenization, low-quality and hollow development in the competition? How to play a leading role while achieving mutual communication between various museums?
Museums compete for people's interest and attention
"As a geological museum, Guibo has undertaken nature in the past 70 years, including geography, ethnicity, biology, resources, etc.; history, including the historical development of the revolution; and democratic construction, including political, economic, cultural and other aspects of the construction achievements, as the main collection, research and display direction." Li Fei said that with the gradual growth of the Guizhou Museum of Nationalities and the Geological Museum, as well as the transformation of the function of the museum in the new era, the "great reform" of the basic exhibition of Guibo is timely.
"With the gradual deepening of archaeological discoveries and related research, our understanding of guizhou history is also deepening, and the time to reorganize and present guizhou's history and culture is also becoming more and more mature." Li Fei revealed that the basic exhibition that has served for nearly 5 years has now entered the "major reform" stage, and the outline of the "script" compiled will soon enter the deepening stage after it is determined, and the "casting" work of cultural relics selection research will be carried out.
The basic exhibition after the "great reform" will usher in earth-shaking changes
"Grasping the principle that 'Guizhou is the melon produced by the main vine of Chinese culture', the basic display will undergo earth-shaking changes." He told reporters that from the "exhibition" to the "exhibition", the cultural relics collection will bring experiential touch to the exhibitors, at that time, not only will it fully present the history and culture of Guizhou for 300,000 years, but also reflect the vitality of the new exhibition of 'seeing people and seeing things and seeing the spirit'. ”
In terms of social education function optimization and audience experience, Guibo will continue to improve the level of explanation and provide personalized services; innovate social education activities with the help of scientific and technological means to create Guibo classrooms and Guibo holiday brands; and carry out activities such as "Expert Curator Progress Hall". At the same time, it promotes the effective connection between museum resources and school education, so that the museum becomes the second classroom of students, making experiential and exploratory learning more enjoyable.
A variety of social and educational activities tell the story of Guizhou
In terms of realizing the interconnection between the museums, Li Fei said that Guibo adheres to the principle of "not seeking all, but seeking to use", and actively supports the exhibition work of the museums, such as lending a number of precious red cultural relics to support the basic display of the Zunyi Conference site, and sending personnel to support the guizhou Geological Museum's explanatory training and collection preservation. "We will continue to use the Guizhou Provincial Museum Alliance to jointly organize exhibitions with cultural relics collection units in the province, and this year, in cooperation with the Qianxian Prefecture Museum and the Guizhou Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, we will plan and export the Yelang Cultural Exhibition to the Nanyue King Tomb Museum in Guangzhou, which has effectively enhanced the cultural exchange ability and effect."
The integration of culture and tourism in the new era
Promote rural revitalization with "no boundaries"
A good exhibition is not only the "star" cultural relics in the exhibition collection.
In the new era of cultural and tourism integration, poverty alleviation, rural revitalization, big country heavy weapons, and green development have become important components of red culture. How to let the audience truly feel the pace of the times through different ways, Guibo people use "breaking the wall" to practice "I do practical things for the masses".
In September 2021, the "Kao Gong Ji: Guizhou Vernacular Architectural Heritage Protection Chuangsheng Exhibition" was launched in Guibo. As the first exhibition launched by Guibo in cooperation with social curators, it has become a major attempt for Guibo to optimize the development layout in the new era, create a "borderless museum", and play a "role" in rural revitalization.
From "memorization" to "technology", the exhibition conducts practical exploration of the protection of local architecture in Guizhou
"Borderless museums emphasize the 'integration' of museums, so that more social forces can be integrated into the development of museums." Li Fei believes that in the new era of cultural and tourism integration, on the one hand, Guibo people should move from the 'museum world' of the collection of history and culture to the 'world of a thousand worlds'; on the other hand, they also hope that all sectors of society will participate in the construction of the museum, so that the museum resources can truly become public resources.
It is reported that next, Guibo will continue to explore the path of the museum to empower rural revitalization, in addition to the orderly launch of rural heritage-related exhibitions, it will also pay attention to the protection and inheritance of rural heritage; sort out the cultural system of counterpart help points to assist in the restoration of rural traditional skills; and enhance the exhibition of rural museums.
Empower rural revitalization with cultural creativity
"We are also planning to set up a rural cultural and creative products monopoly point in the Guibo Cultural and Creative Zone, return all the proceeds from the sale to the countryside, and effectively do something for the revitalization of the countryside." Li Fei told reporters that the study of history is the foothold of party history study and education, and through the platform of the museum, Guibo people excavate and sort out rural heritage and help rural revitalization, which is in the practice of "learning history and practicing" and "doing practical things". In a certain sense, it also expands the connotation of party history study and education, so as to realize the resonance of party history study and education with the same frequency as "I do practical things for the masses".
