Is Anaya really that great?

Anaya, a commercial real estate project that is difficult to replicate in the whole country, has been attacked by commercial marketing, from almost unfinished to utopia in the hearts of the northern middle class. Its legendary experience makes people see the kinetic energy brought by cultural empowerment real estate.

The audience of drama is bound to be limited, but other sections of the drama festival provide many meaningful references for many cities in China to enhance their cultural cards. This paper will explore the possibility of constructing domestic urban culture through works such as Silent Monologue and artistic installation Feed Me.

The Anaya Drama Festival ended at the seaside, accompanied by the noise of the Dragon Boat Festival and the record high temperature in the north.

Compared with the Wave Film Week a month ago, Anaya officially entered the golden season of the year in June, and there were more participants in various costumes and installation art on the beach, whether it was the owner of Anaya, tourists who came to visit or the audience of the drama festival.

The combination of Anaya and drama makes this lifestyle full of ritual. After entering the community gate, you seem to have entered a utopia in the north. From those beautiful buildings and theaters to people's exquisite makeup, it seems that they are in a grand performance scene. The beach where the sky meets the sea in the distance looks like the end of The Truman Show.

1 1 day, 37 invited plays are staged at the seaside, and 15 still cannot satisfy audiences all over the country.

The capacity of the theater is limited, but the stage of Tianhai is full of infinite possibilities.

Strolling along the Gold Coast of Anaya, countless art installations are definitely a feast for the urban exhibition group. The theme of this year's drama festival is shouting and whispering. Besides drama, the four major art units also include public art, cross-border art and living art. ..

These art forms grow in the sun with Anaya's days and nights. For the national audience, drama may still be too few, but with the addition of other art forms, I can see the next direction of urbanization in China.

With the urban renewal, transformation and upgrading, how can urban public services meet the growing aesthetic needs of young people? These explorations of the Anaya Drama Festival may give many valuable references.

Anaya Auditorium and Silent Monologues

When it comes to Anaya, almost everyone will think of the image of an auditorium: between the golden beach and the blue coast, there stands an auditorium with a very symmetrical aesthetic feeling, which is where people must punch in when they go to Anaya.

In the cross-border art unit of this Anaya Drama Festival, the audience has become a narrative medium. Artists Wang Zhigang and Sun Yu, together with the Fish Fruit Culture and Technology Team, presented the accompanying video work "Silent Monologue" for all the audience who came to Anaya.

Art installation, communicate with young people in the current language.

On the platform, there are more than 2.27 million notes related to exhibitions, and participating in various exhibition activities is becoming a way of life for young people.

With the theme of "Drama from Outer Space", this year's Anaya Theatre Festival quadrennial exhibition (AQ) and 9+9 people stage art exhibition 2023 invited 18 participating artists, who used their own good media to shape their world at the seaside.

This device, which was placed on the beach by the sea, attracted a large number of punch-in tourists. Many viewers stopped to think in front of these devices, and the contemporary problems conveyed by these devices reached an interesting vibration with young viewers.

I like to feed me, the artistic installation created by artist Wang Zhigang, and explore the relationship between human beings and science and technology.

Not only because of standing on the platform of this sculpture, but also because of the humanoid sculpture, Anaya Auditorium has a wonderful aesthetic feeling, and it is also a clever fit between this work and the current Internet, AI and other issues.

The metal humanoid sculpture stands alone, and the abandoned circuit board becomes skin, storing the abandoned body memory. Under the seemingly speechless face, information flows like blood, waiting for your feeding.

E-waste records the memory or works of human beings for a period of time in the form of physical objects. The black hole in the middle of the sculpture is staring at the past under the night sky, just like these electronic information fed by human beings, growing and cultivating self-awareness.

Perhaps this is the charm of the exhibition. The author's work only raises a new topic, and the rest depends on the audience. As roland barthes's theory says, the author is dead, and after the work is finished, it is the brain of the audience.

And our city also needs artists' works to create more works with current events. These art installations can also go out of Anaya and take root in more cities.

A city should have its own characteristics.

On the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, tourists from all over the world poured into Anaya, and the peaceful and friendly atmosphere was even more fireworks.

Judging from the license plate of the parking lot, Anaya's main audience at present comes from the northern cities represented by Beijing. What many people don't know is that Anaya has quietly landed in new communities in many places. Compared with the expansion of real estate, the spread of culture can be done faster.

When the audience discusses twelve love poems or Romeo and Juliet by the Sea, they unconsciously become participants in these cultural symbols. At three o'clock in the morning, the audience and the actors completed a performance art together.

As one of the artistic directors of this drama festival, Chen Minghao opened the curtain of the drama festival with his work Red. Artists from different fields * * * use diverse art media such as words, performances, videos and music to break the traditional theater space and imagine the white auditorium crashing into the sea.

What impressed me most about this performance was that Wang Zhigang, the director of Multimedia Vision, combined the traditional drama stage with modern multimedia image art. When the rushing red engulfed the white auditorium, the senses and thoughts were intertwined, and the audience also got a surreal experience.

During my few days in Anaya, I saw too many cultural symbols that made my eyes shine, and I also lamented many times that the second drama festival could be done with such care.

Outside of drama, I saw the possibility of organically combining cultural activities with a city. Anaya, like a sample isolated on the northern seashore, explores how to make urban residents get a better cultural experience in the form of art.

The audience of Anaya Drama Festival should include not only the urban middle class who are pursuing a better life, but also the decision makers who are involved in planning urban development. Whether it is the construction of a new city or the urban renewal of the old city, Anaya Drama Festival represents the consumption trend of a small number of groups at present, but in the long run, it is one of the development directions of our urbanization process.

In the past Dragon Boat Festival, the number of tourists reached 1 12.8% in 20 19, but the tourism income in 20 19 was only 94.9%. More people spend less money.

On the other hand, in the Anaya community, thousands of An Lan hotels have no rooms, and the prices of surrounding apartments are constantly hitting new highs. This obvious contrast may be the hope that culture brings to people.

In the next few years, we believe that the economy will continue to develop, urbanization will continue to advance, and more and more post-00 students with spending power will have higher and higher requirements for culture.

The aborigines after 00 who grew up in urbanization will not only regard the high-rise buildings in the city as places to live or work, this is the ecology of their lives.

Our city should have its own personality and communicate with young residents. These personalities are embodied in every detail of the city, every cultural facility and every cultural activity.
