"Brick carving absorbs wood carving, stone carving, jade carving and other carving art techniques, and at the same time integrates flower and bird painting, calligraphy, seals, poems and other artistic expressions, retains the simplicity and simplicity of unique materials, and presents diversified artistic characteristics. A few days ago, the series of activities of "People's Story Collection" in Shigezhuang Town, Baodi District entered Zhukongzhuang Village, taking everyone into the world of "intangible cultural heritage".
"Early brick carvings were developed from Eastern Zhou tiles, Qin bricks, hollow bricks and Han Dynasty portrait bricks. In the Qing Dynasty, Tianjin brick carving art began to spread among the people. Ma Jinsheng, the third-generation inheritor of the district-level "intangible cultural heritage" brick carving project, is a native of Zhukongzhuang, and he patiently explains the past and present life of brick carving based on his own experience and physical works such as "Gumei". When he said that there are also gatehouse brick carvings in Dongmazhuang Village and Zhulouxia Village in this town, it resonated with everyone: "I saw it when I was a child, I just thought it was beautiful, but I didn't expect that there was so much history and culture behind it, and I was very proud." ”
Zhang Yupan, a member of the town party committee, introduced: "The first activity of 'people's story collection' has been widely welcomed by the masses, and in the future, we will continue to tap local cultural resources, go deep into more villages to carry out activities, enrich the people's amateur cultural life, and create an advanced cultural atmosphere of education." ”
