Sanmao's wandering is a continuation of the childhood memories of several generations. As the hometown of Mr. Zhang Leping, the author of San Mao's Wandering, how can you not be familiar with Mr. Zhang Leping's life and past events, and how can you not tell about Xiao San Mao's wandering past lives?
On Wednesday, after the snow in Chu Qing, all the children in my daughter's class boarded the bus under the guidance of the teacher and started the long-awaited visit to Sanmao, the Zhang Leping Memorial Hall.
Laughing and laughing all the way, when we arrived at Zhang Leping Memorial Hall in Qiyuan Scenic Area, the warm winter sun shone on the children's faces through the treetops, which were little faces full of childishness but eager for new knowledge!
The first thing that caught your eye was the words "Zhang Leping Memorial Hall" inscribed by Mr. Ba Jin, a great literary master. It is clear and simple, and has a strong personality. Mr. Ba Jin's ancestral home is said to be Jiaxing, and his literary works, like Mr. Zhang Leping's cartoons, are all about truth, goodness and beauty. I guess privately, maybe this is the original intention of Mr. Inscription. The children haven't read the Spring and Autumn Letters yet, and hope to have the opportunity to see the footprints left by this literary master.
Entering the hall, the children's first stop is the life story exhibition hall of the old man in Zhang Leping. The exhibition hall is divided into several parts in the form of works display and text description, which introduces Mr. Wang's life and past.
Part I: Reed as a pen and paper on the beach.
The source of this sentence should be the idiom "draw a adopted son" in the biography of Ouyang Xiu, the history of Song Dynasty. Quote in the family background and childhood enlightenment stage of Mr. Leping, let the children realize the hardships and unremitting persistence of their predecessors' achievements from the easy-to-understand lines, so as to better cherish the immediate learning opportunities.
While listening to the introduction of the little commentator, the children lamented that reeds can also be used as pens. I believe this exploration has far-reaching significance.
Part two: I just entered the comic book industry and became famous at sea.
Influenced by the times and family background, Mr. Zhang Leping started to make a living independently in Shanghai when he was 15 years old. In the following years, his original intention of loving painting remained unchanged. He worked as an apprentice, a draftsman and an illustrator, and gradually made his mark in painting. 1935 created the image of San Mao, an orphan in the old society, to show the miserable life of street children in old China and expose the irrationality.
Zhang Leping's creation full of compassion and care gave birth to the film feature film "Puppet Movie" about Sanmao, which still attracts us deeply.
The third part: With the pen as the sword, the painter goes to the battlefield.
Children in peacetime may think that war is a legend, but in Mr. Leping's childhood, our motherland was indeed invaded and countless children were displaced.
1937, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out. Mr. Leping led the anti-Japanese cartoon propaganda team to join the revolution and fight for the independence of the motherland and the freedom and happiness of the people.
The fourth part: elaborate masterpiece, with far-reaching influence.
After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Mr. Leping returned to Shanghai to continue his comic creation. Still the image of Sanmao, Sanmao Joined the Army and Sanmao Wandering began to be serialized in newspapers and periodicals. These cartoons handed down from generation to generation have far-reaching influence.
What we read today about the injustice of the old society and the many sufferings that Sanmao experienced are the painter's feelings for his home country and his concern for our children.
The fifth part: Open up the artistic road and adapt to the new situation.
After the liberation of the motherland, Mr. Zhang Leping continued his artistic creation, while selling his works to raise money for charity, and established "San Mao Paradise" for homeless children. That's right. This is the predecessor of Sanmao Paradise, which we often play now. At the same time, the elderly also painted for children in many children's newspapers and magazines, and went deep into schools and children's palaces to coach children. Won the title of "National Advanced Child Labor" for many times.
Part VI: The glory of the old horse after the robbery.
The robbery here is also a serious trauma in China's modern history. I believe that as children learn and read history, they will have a deeper understanding.
Accompanied by the little commentator's explanation all the way, the children enjoyed the picture, read the paragraphs carefully, or thought deeply or sighed. The image of Sanmao, rooted in children's hearts, must have been sublimated from an abstract cartoon character to a spirit and feelings.
Will the spark of art and the precipitation of modern history burn in their hearts?
After learning about Mr. Zhang Leping's life story, the children began to visit freely in the exhibition hall.
They either appreciate the cartoonist's Mr. and watch anime movies about Sanmao, or look for the cartoons they want to see through the window; Some students squatted down and carefully looked at Mr. Leping's clothes and stationery before his death. Little brain must have flown to that era to explore the life and past of more figurative painters.
After visiting the exhibition hall, the children enjoyed the comic works all the way to the second floor, and under the leadership of the art teacher, they conducted a creative activity of Sanmao portrait.
After the teacher explained, the workshop was quiet, only the paper and pen rustled, and the cartoon image of Xiao Sanmao jumped out of the children's paper.
See with your eyes, listen with your ears, open your heart to feel, and dance with your brush to describe: the sound of nature! The power of emotion! The true meaning of life! The shock of history ...
Art education has never been smooth sailing, and it is silent!
At the end of the half-day visit, the children took a group photo in front of Mr. Ba Jin's inscription, swept away the seriousness and profundity of the visit, and happily returned to campus by bus.
Outside the memorial hall, the sunshine in winter is beautiful, but it is still a little cold, but the children don't care about the bleak winter!
Accept the baptism of history and art in such a journey of zero-distance contact with Sanmao, guide children to cherish the lost years and be grateful for modern peace, so as to enlighten them to be sincere and kind, know more about kindness and care, and satisfy their long-distance ideal!
