On October 18th, the art salon of "Emergence - Fan Yong Photography Art Exhibition" was opened at the Bonjour Workshop of Kunming Jinding Science and Technology Park, where representatives from various industries participated in the exhibition and exchanged views to discuss the significance and value of photography art in the promotion and promotion of biodiversity in Yunnan. "Fan Yong's photographic works focus on the flexible 'spirits' such as grass, wood and insects in nature, constantly displaying the rich species in the magical land of Yunnan, and at the same time, we can also glimpse the infinite beauty and enjoyment brought by photography art." Zhao Xiaole, general manager of OCT Yunnan Cultural Investment Group and Yunwen Digital Technology, said.
"The beauty brought by the art of photography is precious, how can more people share this beauty?" Cheng Lu, director of the UCD New Cultural and Creative Strategy Research Office of Beijing Urban Construction Design and Development Group Co., Ltd., said that the "Emergence" - Fan Yong Photography Art Exhibition effectively and brilliantly relies on the "3min Museum" of Kunming Metro Line 4 to use the subway space as a "mobile exhibition hall", and the choice of presentation field and art carrier is also quite ingenious. The exhibition avoids the "tall" art exhibition hall, and specially lands in the hall of 9 key stations on Line 4 of the Kunming Metro, and is displayed throughout the day with the digital screen of the station hall. While displaying the artistic beauty of the masters, the theme of "Ecological Civilization: Jointly Building the Life Of the Earth" is substituted into it, calling on the masses to participate together to protect the ecology of Yunnan and feel the beauty of art.
Tang Haitao, professor and master tutor of the Academy of Fine Arts of Yunnan Academy of Arts, vice chairman of the Yunnan Artists Association, executive director of the Yunnan Literary and Art Theorists Association, and director of the Yunnan Calligraphers Association, commented that Fan Yong is a person who leans down to talk to grass and insects with the lens. The grass and insects under Fan Yong's lens are a small window, showing the ecological concept of "all living things are a community". Wang Ying, a national first-class director of Yunnan Dian Theatre, said: "Fan Yong is the first artist in Yunnan to hold a mobile phone macro photography exhibition, and his works under his lens are delicate and powerful, not only have artistic beauty, but also tell a story with his works . ”
As the curator of this exhibition, Su Haifeng, CEO of Hengqu Investment (Yunnan) Group Co., Ltd., fully felt the magic and richness of the natural biological world under the lens of Fan Yong's art. Su Haifeng introduced: "The art of photography is actually an expression, it is unique, the lens of the lens artist shows us the endless beauty of everything in this world. Through this curatorial experience, he has learned more about the art of photography and has also explored a vibrant biological world of plants, trees and insects.
"Passing on the concept of loving life, through the observation and photography of the 'agile' creatures in our hometown, let us fear life and protect nature together." Fan Yong, from the beautiful border town of Dehong in Yunnan, said that Dehong is an ocean of song and dance, and the cradle of artists' creation. In this exhibition, Fan Yong's wish is to interpret the unique beauty of his hometown Dehong through his own perspective, as well as to show the beauty of the rich ecological diversity of dehong land.
