Chinese paper-cutting originated in the Southern and Northern Dynasties and became widely popular after the Tang Dynasty. It is a kind of arts and crafts with a wide range of popular Chinese folk decorative arts. Its artistic form is highly decorative and interesting. Shanghai paper-cutting appeared in the last century. At that time, it often appeared on folk door stickers, shoe flowers, and embroidery patterns. In the historical evolution of nearly a hundred years, Shanghai paper-cutting has gradually formed a unique "Shanghai style" and has a considerable status in the traditional art of Chinese paper-cutting. In the book "Chinese Folk Culture Series Paper-cutting Art" compiled by the Ministry of Culture, two Shanghai paper-cutting art masters are listed: Wang Zigan and Lin Ximing. Wang Zigan has passed away, and Lin Ximing is currently the honorary president of the China Paper-cutting Association, the president of the Shanghai Paper-cutting Association, the director of the Shanghai Artists Association, and the first-class painter of the Shanghai Chinese Painting Academy. Wang Zigan appropriately integrates the roughness and grandeur of northern paper-cutting with the delicate and smoothness of southern paper-cutting, inherits the excellent skills of his predecessors, and shows a very strong artistic personality. Therefore, his works are concise, exaggerated, and highly decorative, covering everything from flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals, landscapes, and figures and buildings. Lin Ximing is Su Meishuo's disciple. Over the past seventy years, he has created hundreds of thousands of paper-cut works reflecting the changes in China's rural and urban areas. They have been published in provincial and national newspapers such as Zhejiang Peasants' Daily, and used as illustrations in many books. He is well-known in the field of folk art and has become a wonder in Shanghai folk art. His paper-cut works combine the delicate and simple colors of traditional Chinese paper-cuts with modern elements such as roughness and association. He boldly uses the freehand techniques in landscape painting, which he is good at, to integrate calligraphy and painting with folk paper-cuts, which complement each other and complement each other. This is a unique art in Chinese paper-cut art. In 2005, Shanghai-style paper-cutting was approved by the Shanghai Economic Commission to be recognized as a traditional protected skill in Shanghai. As a category of the excellent traditional culture of the motherland, we should continue to make greater efforts to inherit and summarize Shanghai-style paper-cutting in order to preserve its solid survival ability and continue it.
