On the afternoon of September 25, the premiere ceremony of the series of books produced by Shaanxi Xinhua Publishing and Media Group shaanxi people's publishing house and the prose collection "Seeing Tile" was held at No. 30, Xi'an Waku, and more than 80 guests from literary and art circles in Shaanxi and Henan attended the testimony. At the scene, Wang Hongyan, the author of "Seeing Tiles", and Fu Qiang, Yu Ping, Li Zongqi, Kong Ming, Zhou Yanfen and other scholars in the field of culture and architecture, held dialogues around "Seeing Tiles" and topics such as "Seeing Tiles" and topics such as "Spiritual Space in the Urbanized Environment Under the Rapid Development of Material Life" and "Urban Civilization and Rural Memory".
Wang Hongyan, a member of the Shaanxi Literary and Art Critics Association, was the chief editor of the essay collection "Asking The Tile". This time, she launched the essay collection "See the Tile", in her pen, with the elements of "tile" and "tea" as a collection, the increasingly lost civil engineering bricks and tiles in the city are recorded and given a deep look back with prose brushwork, and spread out with tea life, advocating the return to spiritual tranquility in the noisy material society. The author's writing style is simple, the beginning of the writing is natural and lofty, with sincere and real life perception, the inner scenery and the original face of life are blended together to describe the material aspirations, and realize the "I write my heart" in the text.
Tiles are living objects, pages of history. With the condensation of Qin bricks and Han tiles, tiles are also a unique "scenic business card" of the ancient city of Xi'an. In "Seeing The Tile", from "The Old Story of Waku" to "Only Make the Grottoes a Tea House", from "Dada's Afternoon Tea", to "Choosing a City to End Old", Wang Hongyan wrote "Wa", wrote "Tea", and also wrote the stories behind these Chinese cultural symbols, wrote about the fragments of life, wrote about his companionship with friends, and wrote about the different bonds between the city and the countryside and the urban people. At the launch ceremony, Wang Hongyan said that he grew up under the roots of the Xi'an city wall and grew up in a courtyard with tiles, "I may be born good at nostalgia, so I always have a love affair about tiles in my heart." The progress of the times has reached today, although there are now high-rise buildings everywhere, but the green tile houses, old city bricks, and ordinary city sounds are still there. Xi'an, my city, is a city that fills me with the most sincere memories. ”
Kong Ming, director of the third editorial department and editor of Shaanxi People's Publishing House, said that Wang Hongyan's work made him a bit surprised, "Her words are very emotional, and she imprints her soul and creative inspiration in the book in one go." This book I think refreshes the concept of prose creation - around an object, a residence, into a work. Zhou Yanfen, a professor at the College of Letters at Northwest University, believes that Wang Hongyan, whether as a person or a person, "has a warm light" and "her words carry her character - simple, down-to-earth, and warm." I was completely captivated by her nimble writing. Her writing is very relaxed, the scenery is meticulous, and the emotional expression is natural. Saying wa talking about tea and talking about gatherings all speaks the taste and philosophy of life, and uses the language of flowing clouds and flowing water without carving. Authentic literature comes from love, and it is free to write out the truth and love of the heart freely, that is the most beautiful literature. ”
As the organizer, Zhao Shaojun, the owner of the Waku brand, said that Waku is not only a place to drink tea, but also an art space and a cultural space. Over the years, Waku has produced a number of excellent literary works, in addition to seeing wa, there are: "Waku", "The Day of Wa", "Waku Tea Affair", "Ask Wa" and so on. In addition, Waku also closely focuses on the mission of advocating the balance of life and improving the aesthetics of the public, and insists on regularly carrying out multi-dimensional public welfare art activities such as various types of art exhibitions and literary works reading meetings, hoping to achieve "art life and art of life", so that everyone's life and art can be closely integrated. In the future, Waku will continue to present more colorful artistic and cultural activities for the public.
