《通运吉祥》

作者: 王晗、郭立明

作品以通州运河为背景，围绕中国传统节庆文化活动中的凝聚与沉淀，运用现代绘画技法的“中国龙”贯穿其中，展现中国当代文化的自信与传承。其中选取节庆文化代表性较强的“舞龙舞狮”、“端午赛龙舟”与舶来品“水上乐园”、“帆船畅游”等游乐项目穿插组织画面内容，描绘了一幅欢乐、喜庆、祥和的传统与现代的和谐娱乐生活画卷。运河不单单是交通货物的穿载，更是肩负着传统文化的继承与传播。

　　

Taking the Tongzhou Canal as the background, and borrowing the elements from traditional Chinese festival culture and activities, the artist uses the “Chinese dragon” made by modern painting techniques to run through the entire work, which demonstrates the artist’s confidence in the contemporary Chinese culture and its inheritance of tradition. Typical scenes representing festival culture are selected and interspersed to organize the content of the picture, such as “Dragon Dance and Lion Dance”, “Dragon Boat Race”, and such imported attractions as “Water Park” and “Sailing Trip”. The whole work is a picture about happy, festive, peaceful and harmonious life, in both traditional and modern styles. The canal is not only a channel for transportation of goods, but also a carrier for inheritance and dissemination of traditional Chinese culture.
