The folk art is rooted in the soil of folk culture, and its natural and vivid language to express the simplest spiritual demands and life aspirations of people makes it the cultural root of the Chinese nation. Benefiting from the unique and prosperous folk culture in Guangdong, GDMoA has been focusing on the collection and research of folk art with an open and inclusive academic attitude since its inception and has accumulated a considerable number of fine folk art that covers the major varieties. On the occasion of the opening of our museum’s new site, as well as the coming Spring Festival, we curate this exhibition that is divided into three sections themed by “Caring”, “Wishing” and “Pleasing”, which focus on New Year picture, wood carving and paper cutting, trying to reflect both the “commonality” and “individuality” in folk art, and to tell the stories that are impressive, lovely and respectable.
