The Research Of The Development Path For Intangible Cultural Heritage Feng Xiang Clay Sculpture

President Xi Jinping has firstly initiated the construction of the Silk Road Economic Zone at Nazarbayev University in Kazakhstan since September 7,2013.This also indicates that the Silk Road along the city in the economic and cultural aspects will be a new opportunity for development.FengXiang clay sculpture demonstrates the people's bloody eagerness,which accumulates and develops through time,towards the local happy life in a type of visional expression.However,as a representative of intangible cultural heritage,it is not easy for us to inherit it for its special characteristics.Furthermore,the current situation may be different from it used to be.So it strongly urges us to consider how it can be better and more widely spread and how to inherit it completely and accurately.This study is derived from the tutor's subject research.In order to cast in the tutor's project,the thesis is cultivated on the study of the path for FengXiang clay sculpture,aiming to analyze the design of culturally-creative products from the perspective of intangible cultural heritage.The author,in the early period,has buried herself in a large scale of preparatory works including documents' collection and materials' analysis,obtaining the basic understanding of the FengXiang clay in the master of the relevant information.Besides,the author,after referring to relevant materials,went to the LiuYing village in FengXiang County to conduct a field study,visiting the FengXiang clay sculpture museum as well as interviewing the representative manufacturer Hu Xiaohong.Moreover,after visiting the county culture museum,it was capable of author to bring back a lot of first-hand materials,which include FengXiang clay sculpture pictures,text,objects and interview's recording of local craftsmen.After returning back to the base,I rearranged and re-assort these first-hand materials and the previous products in documents collections.In this paper,firstly I comprehensively introduce the basic concepts,contents and characteristics of intangible cultural heritage.Meanwhile,it's necessary for me to figure out the geographical and humanistic environment of FengXiang clay sculpture as intangible cultural heritage.Secondly,from the perspectives of artistic characteristics,artificial process and associated folk tales and poems,I creatively rearrange and assort the materials in order to manifest the following topic.Thirdly,I will probe into the great concerns over the current situation of inheritance and protection of FengXiang clay sculpture,and even the enormous care of its future.Finally,with the reference of the software used for visual element extraction,I will take advantage of some design-related theories to operate a series of cultural products,hoping to accelerate the process of inheriting and developing this kind of crafts product.
