Chinese Subway Mural Design Phenomenon Research

The British London completed the world first subway since 1863 (6.5 kilometers), the world had more than 80 cities to clear more than 300 subway routes, the total length has surpassed 3800 kilometers, at present there has the massive cities to further develop and the construction subway lines. The city owning a subway from our country to inspect with range , such as Beijing , Shanghai , Shenzhen , Guangzhou , Nanjing , Tianjin has already opened the subway circuits. Although the subway has not achieved the popularization far in our country, but it transformed, newly built, forms and so on plan to start the new round subway construction in our country. Subway mural, as subway environment in an important gatekeeper altogether art, receives people's attention more and more and takes seriously, has the important status in the subway environmental construction.Subway murals as a "subway cultural phenomenon, " it's also just beginning to study. On the one hand, the current subway murals for the exposition also only stay in the art of the individual or the individual works of some, China's subway system on the status of murals and devoted very little. And the corresponding theoretical research and more from the subway construction point of view and the point of view of environmental design, does not treat seriously to the subway mural design's elaboration. On the other hand, subway murals on the corresponding theoretical results, and more participation from creative artists, teachers, designers of the actual creation of experience and sentiment, the lack of systematic and relevant theoretical support, on a single perspective, there are certain limitations.In this paper, based on the subway mural design phenomenon, related to the introduction of the theory of knowledge, from "Urban Traffic," "Subway construction", "public art", "Environmental psychology" and other multi-angle look at the status quo subway mural design. Obtains from the subway environment analysis, carries on the exposition to the subway mural and the subway environment's relations. In the text, the time as the clues, the Chinese representative to the city subway murals were phased general. Because of the huge subway construction project, each lines has different periods, building decorations, the use of the art means to be different. However, it is easy to find out, the subway mural's expression means are getting more and more diverse, the performance content is getting more and more rich, they have a special inventive in the choice of material, the spatial contact surface's choice, installs aspects and so on. Generally speaking, works in the planning, design, production, installation and other specific areas tend to gradually improve, formal, professional. This process also is home to public art artists, designers "role conversion" of the process, mural works and the environment is increasingly Integration process. On the other hand, there have been some problems and deficiencies. Works such as murals on the record not perfect, works on the licensing of that neglect and informal, and the works of the imperfections of lighting facilities, and other issues. Hope in the future to the design of the overall consideration, the overall planning. Last chapter, Chinese subway mural's prospects for development, pointed out that the Chinese subway mural several aspects which must pay attention in the next development.This is a comprehensive review and summary of China's 39 subway mural design. By analyzing the phenomenon, raise questions and feasibility proposal. Intended to work out their own murals on the subway limitations, their relations on the whole, linked with the development of perspective.It hopefully offers a few ordinary introductory remarks so that others may offer their valuable ideas by this, to cause more people to pay attention to the Chinese subway mural the creation and the theory construction, the attention vigorous development subway culture, founds one through the outstanding mural work for the populace to be more harmonious, to fill entertainment of art the subway space.
