Paper Materials Used In Contemporary Sculpture In China

Papermaking was a great invention of the Chinese nation. Paper, carrying thousands of years of Chinese civilization. At national and abroad, artists have paper as material for artistic. Paper is very common in our daily life, it is so widely used, can write, draw, can Andean fold, paste, used to package, and even can be used to build a house, etc, which are impossible for certain other materials to surpass. It is also rich and colorful art forms, from traditional Chinese art form to the later development of the plane of the three-dimensional art forms, such as, paper cutting, origami, paper models and other art forms, but these forms of traditional Chinese art also is a good foreign artist development, for example, the Japanese art of origami has evolved into a nationwide popular art form. In Japan, the school curriculum as a compulsory course chosen origami course, visible, Japan’s emphasis on the art of origami, it is the other countries can not match. Not only the art of origami, the Japanese have different levels of innovation and development in the Papermaking, such as Japan’s " Washi" art form in constant succession and development, has formed a relatively complete theoretical system and a big artistic achievements. Therefore, I urgently hope that China can produce a sense of crisis in the form of cultural research paper art, research in this area deeply.Contemporary art development of China in thirty years ago, the paper gradually being valued by the artist, paper materials are also common in Chinese contemporary art, then, have the artists’ attitudes of materials changed? What is the identity of the materials act in a sculptural work? In the use of materials What is the law? For the author, we should solve the problem. Therefore, this paper starting from the body of sculpture, mainly on paper materials in the sculpture materials are analyzed through theoretical research, analysis and practical work combining research methods, categories and personality characteristics and other aspects of the paper material for reflection, especially for pulp and paper production methods materials used in Chinese contemporary sculpture works focus on research, combined with his work, trying to summarize the application of the law of paper material. I emphasize that we cannot departing from the sculptures themselves to talk about the use of the material, otherwise it will certainly untrue conclusions law, either have the reference value.This thesis mainly discussed the development of Papermaking and paper materials category, the paper analyzes the characteristics of various types of materials, characteristics and limitations of materials, and then production methods focus on pulp paper material; secondly, the thesis also introduced the various types of paper materials in Chinese contemporary sculpture works of art, analysis of different periods in the artist’s work.Identity its protagonist or supporting role, is our duty from now on. Studies artist creative ideas and material selection causes compared to other materials through research, analysis of different qualities of various materials and different means of expression. Thirdly, the author studies the use of paper-based materials experiments conducted to carry out creative interpretation, analysis and draw conclusions. Finally, the development direction of this subject should be worth of discussed.
