Qinhuangdao glass museum exhibition hall

First of all, walk into the exhibition and feel the magic of glass history.

In the whole exhibition, the basic exhibition of "Gathering Heaven and Earth" is a comprehensive exhibition of glass history, glass technology and glass art, which is divided into four parts: ancient glass, the cradle of china glass industry, China contemporary glass industry and brilliant glass art. The exhibition area is 1500 square meters, with a total investment of150,000 yuan. 1000 pieces of cultural relics comprehensively and vividly show the origin, evolution, development and production of china glass culture in different periods. The exhibits in the exhibition include glass art treasures that reflect contemporary art, glass ornaments that reflect folk culture, and exotic treasures that gather exotic customs, fully demonstrating the important role of glass in life and its unique cultural and artistic charm.

(A) Preface hall design, unique. The central theme sculpture "Condensed Light of Heaven and Earth" shows the process that glass originated from heaven and earth and finally formed by fire quenching. The surrounding wall decoration landscape "window of light" transmits soft and pleasing lights on the curved wall with sky implication, showing the beautiful implication that glass brings to the world's better future.

(2) ancient glass, both Chinese and western. The ancient glass exhibition area is divided into two units: Western ancient glass and China ancient glass. The starting point of the exhibition is the artistic scene "The Legend of Glass Production in West Asia". The western ancient glass showcase shows the masterpieces of glaze sand, core winding, molding and blowing unearthed in ancient Asia, which has a history of 4000 years. The landscape wall "stained glass of medieval church" mainly shows the evolution of glass technology in medieval Europe and the integration of glass art and religion. A group of western envoys presented the glass crafts to the Qing emperor, which naturally connected the ancient glass exhibition areas of China and the West, and the logic was rigorous. From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the exhibition of ancient glass in China made the historical development of ancient glass in China clearly visible. Through the restoration of the street view of Shen Yan Town, the street view of Boshan Shen Yan Town in Ming and Qing Dynasties is intuitively reproduced, which combines historical truth and artistic charm, renders the atmosphere and rhythm of the whole exhibition, and restores the historical memory of ancient glass production in China with ancient glass cultural relics. In ancient China, glass was not only a treasure in the material category, but also endowed with literary and religious colors by literati and eminent monks. "Han Yuefu" once compared earrings made of glass to the bright moon, so there is a famous saying that "the waist is like a cloud, and the ears are like a bright moon". Glass, called "coloured glaze" in ancient times, is one of the "seven treasures" of Buddhism and the first of the "five famous vessels in China". A group of glass gourds unearthed from the stupa underground palace in the museum is the highest container for holding Buddha bones and relics. Buddhism believes that colored glaze is the embodiment of the realm of practice for thousands of years. In all the classics, "the shape and spirit are like colored glass" is regarded as the highest realm of Buddhist practice. "Pharmacist Liu Rulai is willing to make contributions": "I hope that when I come to give birth to Bodhi, my body will be like glass, clear inside and outside, pure and flawless." In a sense, glass is a symbol of personality, spirit and realm. Ming Che's glass has placed people's good wishes.

(c) Modern Hua Yao, the cradle of industry. China glass Industrial Cradle Exhibition Area mainly introduces the development and glorious course of Hua Yao Glass Factory, and records and relives the rise and fall of national industry in detail through the exhibition composed of historical relics, precious photos and production tools of Hua Yao Glass Factory. Hua Yao Glass Factory shares the same fate with China's modern industry. In the slogan of "saving the country through industry", every period before liberation showed the struggle and compromise between national industry and foreign capital. From "Sino-Belgian joint venture" to "Japanese occupation" and then to "joint venture between government and business", the minutes of the meeting reminded the audience that China's national industry once existed in the cracks of three mountains. Decades of ravages and struggles have finally stood tall on the day of 1949. The modern history of china glass's industry is almost the epitome of the modern history of the Chinese nation. The mighty history, the wind and cloud will meet. From "ten-year construction" to "reform and opening up", from "public ownership" to "shareholding system", from "Falk method" and "float method" to the application of electronic model of proportional production line. Coming through time and space, pieces of pride and sadness, like the waves of history, washed away the beach of memory, leaving a bank full of treasures, which were watched and created all the way.

Emerging products, development and evolution. With the development of china glass industry, various glass enterprises that can start a prairie fire have blossomed everywhere in China, and the types of glass products are becoming more and more diverse. In order to meet the needs of production and life, glass is reprocessed into new products with different shapes. The new products come from different industries' demand for special glass materials. It has the characteristics of transparency, heat conduction, insulation and corrosion resistance, and is destined to become an irreplaceable material. The industries involved are automobile, construction and medical industries closely related to people's lives; Transportation, mining and warehousing industries involving the national economy and people's livelihood; Explore the unknown aerospace, diving and microelectronics industries. It is a magical material, with new properties waiting for us to continue to discover, and blank areas need us to continue to explore. The exhibition portfolio of China Contemporary Glass Industry Exhibition Area is a typical comprehensive exhibition of contemporary museums. This large-scale combined exhibition, which consists of large display cabinets, composite drawings and 26 kinds of 3 1 1 glass exhibits, artistically and shockingly shows the brilliant achievements of China's contemporary glass industry since the reform and opening up. Among them, bullet-proof glass, self-cleaning glass, aerospace glass and many other products have filled the blank of china glass industry and passed on the popular science knowledge of the generation, development and application of glass to the public.

(5) The glass art is brilliant and magical. The glass art exhibition is the focus of the whole exhibition and the promotion and sublimation of the overall style of the museum. The representative works of Tsinghua University, Shanghai University, Liuli Workshop, Taiwan Province Lingering Garden, Wu Zixiong Museum, Baigongfang and other top domestic glass art groups, academic institutions and artists gathered here, which perfectly explained the ever-changing and varied artistic characteristics of glass. A dazzling array of contemporary glass artworks or images are fresh, simple and natural, flashing the warmth of memory, or exaggerated and dynamic, leaving an indelible impression on people. The progress of culture and art needs the exhibition and exchange of works, and also the inheritance of the essence of traditional art. Think carefully, there are many cultural highlights that amaze the world in the history of glass technology development for thousands of years. In the exhibition area, two groups of snuff bottle paintings and glass lamp artworks are displayed in the specially added intangible cultural heritage showcase. Stories of different periods spanning two hundred years are told in square inches, which is a tribute to the art of internal painting inherited from Ming and Qing Dynasties, as well as to the masters of internal painting such as Zhou Leyuan and Chen Shaofu in Qing Dynasty and the inheritors of contemporary glass crafts. Feel with your heart and communicate with your heart. In order to increase the museum's interest and participation, this exhibition area has carefully set up various interactive links such as glass on-site production, glass painting, glass beading and kaleidoscope. Every festival is full of excitement and excitement.

Second, watch the exhibition and be in the world of glass art.

(1) The spatial layout is reasonable and magnificent. The exhibition is based on the original space of historical buildings, and the designers have spent a lot of thoughts on the layout of the exhibition space. The design of the exhibition pays attention to the sense of rhythm and rhythm, and the layout pursues the ups and downs and fluidity of spatial continuity. According to the theme of the exhibition, the space is divided into several coherent and relatively independent exhibition halls, so that the exhibition can achieve a coherent, trendy and natural overall display effect. The preface hall, with the theme of "the condensation of heaven and earth", has profound implications and is the soul of the whole exhibition, which plays the role of finishing touch. Each exhibition hall is presented in the form of a unit, which has obvious visual differences, allowing the audience to easily grasp the exhibition structure and clearly remember the exhibition. In addition, in the design of the first exhibition hall, the division method was adopted, and the stained glass windows of medieval churches were used as landscape walls to divide the original single space into two theme subspaces, so that the environmental space was full of changes in the overall atmosphere and the audience's thoughts flowed freely in the changes.

(B) the clever use of color, distinctive personality. The background of the exhibition hall renders the overall atmosphere with a calm and cold tone, and the base and logo of the showcase are mainly brown, reflecting the solemnity and profundity of the exhibits. Each exhibition hall not only has a complete and unified style, but also adopts a variety of display techniques. Through the air connection of different shapes and the color change of the exhibition wall, the exhibition hall has its own characteristics. The color of the first exhibition hall is simple and vigorous, which conforms to the deep and heavy characteristics of cultural relics and realizes the coordination and unity of background and cultural relics style; The colors of the second and third exhibition halls are gradually bright and rich, which highlights the sense of space and depth of field of the exhibition hall and is magnificent; The color of the fourth exhibition hall echoes the first exhibition hall from a distance, achieving a perfect and ingenious return, and highlighting the brilliance and magic of works of art with lighting effects.

(3) The lighting is carefully set and the intensity is appropriate. The whole exhibition hall is fully enclosed, and the combination of overall lighting and local lighting has produced the effects of soft overall lighting, prominent local lighting, quiet and harmonious whole exhibition hall and appropriate light intensity. The lighting of specific display cabinets and main exhibits adopts the combination of top light and bottom light, supplemented by positioning lights, which has a very perspective effect, highlights the crystal-clear characteristics of glass and plays a role in guiding the audience's vision. In the preface hall of the exhibition, the theme sculpture "light of heaven and earth" and the wall landscape "window of light" are dazzling under the echo of environmental lighting. The bright glass art exhibition area creates a fantastic visual effect with the clever cooperation of lighting.

(4) The form is novel and unique. On the basis of a profound understanding of the contents of the exhibition, the formal design of the exhibition has integrated strong characteristics of the times. In order to highlight the cultural image of the museum, our library invited Mr. Li Fujun, a young national sculpture artist, to tailor the theme sculpture "Light of Heaven and Earth" for the exhibition, which artistically explained the process that glass came from heaven and earth and was born in fire. At the same time, based on innovation, the museum has arranged a variety of artistic techniques such as pictures, words, scenes, landscapes, models, videos, sand tables and paintings. It has shaped the artistic image of the exhibition with ingenious layout and novel modeling, realized the perfect combination of artistic form design and exhibition content, enhanced the artistic appeal of the exhibition, and guided the image perception and rational thinking of visitors.

Third, expand services and seek the extension of the exhibition.

Social education and service are the main social functions of museums. Since its establishment, the Glass Museum has always set up the museum management concept of "people-oriented, serving the audience", and through the scientific management system, the collections are moved and the exhibition hall is alive.

(1) Solid basic services, namely "routine". There is a voice guide service system in the museum, with clear signs and guidance, complete supporting service facilities, disabled access, wheelchairs, medical boxes, storage rooms, theme restaurants and so on. The museum provides explanation services in three languages, with free explanation at regular intervals every day. A total of 76 volunteer lecturers were trained. Actively formulate detailed publicity and promotion plans. Up to now, 35,000 sets of brochures have been printed and provided to the audience free of charge.

(2) Expand educational positions and do a good job of "bright spots". Museum staff "go out" and extend their services to schools, communities and troops. Establish social practice education base mechanism with Tsinghua University and Northeastern University respectively to play the role of cultural propaganda and education. The digital museum has complete functions, realizing online reservation, online visit and online sales of museum souvenirs, expanding the publicity effect of the museum and building a network platform for resource sharing.

(three) to carry out social activities, do a good job of "characteristics". A detailed activity planning scheme was formulated, and theme activities such as Mid-Autumn Festival, Christmas, New Year's Day, Spring Festival and Valentine's Day were successfully held. Inviting internationally renowned glass artists Anthony, Guan Donghai and other artists to visit the museum, attracted a large number of professionals from the glass art world to visit the museum for observation and academic discussion. Top domestic artists from Beijing and Shanghai are widely invited to promote inter-city glass craft cooperation, provide a space and platform for the integration of North and South glass art, and provide the public with the latest and highest level of glass art enjoyment.

(4) Develop cultural products and make good use of "resources". Museum souvenirs are the extension of the exhibition and the imprint of the audience's memory. It is also a beneficial exploration for the development of museum cultural industry to give full play to the regional advantages of tourist cities and carefully design cultural tourism cultural products with local characteristics. Qinhuangdao Glass Museum has reached product exhibitions and R&D contracts with many top glass art companies in China, and developed more than 20 kinds of glass souvenirs, such as "Listening to the waves of the Mohe Sea", "The City is in the Chest" and "Harmony", which are integrated into local cultural elements such as Shanhaiguan, Beidaihe, the Great Wall and the sea, and are widely loved by tourists at home and abroad.

Fourth, pay attention to practical results and get good social response.

Public participation is the most practical evaluation of museum exhibition effect. Qinhuangdao Glass Museum is located in the coastal tourist city, close to Beidaihe, the summer capital, and it is the first pass in the world. It has become a hot spot for citizens and tourists to visit, with a cumulative audience of 6,543.8+0.2 million in half a year. He has received eight provincial and ministerial leaders and nearly 100 organizations, including Han Qide, vice chairman of the National People's Congress, and Wang Zhongyu, former vice chairman of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. More than 40 events were held. The elegant artistic and cultural atmosphere created by Qinhuangdao Glass Museum shows its cultural taste and artistic content, and has won the praise of cultural circles at home and abroad and the yearning of audiences from all walks of life. Minister Ai, Propaganda Minister of Hebei Provincial Party Committee, wrote an inscription "Inheriting Civilization", which clarified the functional orientation of the Municipal Glass Museum and gave good wishes. The opening of Qinhuangdao Glass Museum has become the focus of news media. Since its opening, 72 articles have been reported by 24 participating media. At the same time, Qinhuangdao glass museum has been listed as the top ten news of Qinhuangdao on 20 12.

Qinhuangdao Glass Museum not only built a platform to fully display glass culture and art, but also provided an important window for the world to understand the history of glass and the history of this city. Qinhuangdao glass museum will further promote the deep integration of glass art and glass industry, and comprehensively promote glass culture, which will surely become a beautiful landscape that carries the essence of culture, shapes the image of the city and displays artistic charm.
