"Performing characters is shaping (characters), and doing installation art is also shaping. I think that arts are all connected, and movies can connect other arts." Before the performance of the installation modern dance drama "Talk·Fragrance·Shape", the actors , director, and cross-border artist Huang Bo introduced it this way.
The light and shadow are mottled, and the water is surging. Accompanied by the cello, and in the melodious tunes of guitar and humai, the dancers express their multi-layered questioning of life in the gorgeous colors...
If you don’t explain it clearly, it’s probably hard to imagine. This is an event about movies. On the first day of the opening of this Shanghai International Film Festival, the Shanghai Film Art Center unveiled its mystery. No. 200 Xinhua Road, adjacent to Shanghai Film City, is a century-old garden mansion. After protective restoration by Shanghai Film Studio, it was officially renamed Shanghai Film Art Center. The installation modern dance drama "Talk, Fragrance, Shape" co-created and performed by Huang Bo and Gao Yanjinzi made its debut, igniting the chemical reaction between film and art, which shows that the Shanghai Film Art Center has become the first place for art exhibitions, film exchanges, new product launches, and fashion. The ambitious goal of becoming a place where wonderful shows and other exciting events take place; it also shows that Shanghai Film, starting from movies, crosses boundaries or even transcends boundaries, connects movies with all art forms, and makes art a more vivid life form with a hundred flowers blooming.
In this city of movies, let us start from movies, consume, communicate, live, inherit ancient traditions, lead fashion trends, and embrace multiculturalism. (Sun Jiayin)
