Intangible cultural heritage is an integral part of the traditional Chinese culture. Giving popularity and vitality to intangible cultural heritages is crucial to upgrading the influence of Chinese culture. In recent years, remarkable achievements have been made in protecting and inheriting China's intangible cultural heritage, boosting creative transformation and innovative development of the traditional Chinese culture and bringing a new breath of life to cultural heritages. By the end of 2021, China had more than 100,000 representative intangible cultural heritages, including 1,557 national-level ones. There were over 90,000 representative inheritors, including 3,062 national-level ones and 42 intangible cultural heritages were included in the UNESCO List and Catalog of Intangible Cultural Heritages, ranking first in the world.
Safeguarding heritage
In recent years, China has been actively pursuing a policy of “protection first, rescue first, reasonable utilization and inheritance development”, and has achieved exceptional outcomes in the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage. Now in the new stage of systematic protection, the country offers a Chinese approach to protect and inherit the intangible cultural heritages.
In 2011, China enacted the Law of Intangible Cultural Heritage, laying a solid legal foundation for protecting and inheriting intangible cultural heritages. In 2021, China released the Opinions on Further Strengthening the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritages, defining the objectives and directions of protecting intangible cultural heritages in the new era. At the same time, China has gradually improved supporting policies and established the main framework of the legal system for intangible cultural heritage protection and inheritance. By 2022, the central government had invested 9.65 billion yuan in protection of intangible cultural heritages and allocated 1.785 billion yuan in executing projects relating to the protection. In addition, multiple provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) have also assigned special funds for protecting their local intangible cultural heritages.
Every region in China is working hard on the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritages. Gansu Province is rich in intangible cultural heritage resources. As of now, Huaer Folk Songs, Huanxian Daoqing Shadow Play, and Geser/Gesar have been selected into the UNESCO Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritages. In addition, the province hosts 83 national and 493 provincial representative intangible cultural heritages, 68 national and 617 provincial representative inheritors. Focusing on protection, inheritance, promotion and dissemination of intangible cultural heritages, Gansu keeps utilizing the significance and contemporary value of intangible cultural heritage. By improving the policy and regulatory tools, perfecting the protection and inheritance regulations, continuously increasing financial investment, and working hard to promote intangible cultural heritages, the province is doing an impressive job building institutions and teams to protect intangible cultural heritages and recording obvious achievements in the protection, including gradually employing digital technologies. Gansu has registered new accomplishments in the systematic protection of intangible cultural heritages.
Innovative approach
Currently, the "intangible cultural heritage+" featuring integration of fields has become an important characteristic of the innovative development of intangible cultural heritages, which is mainly manifested in "intangible cultural heritage+tourism", "intangible cultural heritage+e-commerce", "intangible cultural heritage+cultural innovation" and other combinations. Guizhou has rich intangible cultural heritages such as Miao People's Folk Songs (Feige), Dong People's Folk Songs (Dage), ethnic embroidery, batik. In recent years, Guizhou has vigorously designed rural tourism routes themed on "traditional farming culture+intangible cultural heritage+experience", transformed traditional villages into experience points for intangible cultural heritage research, launched boutique routes such as the Miao area intangible cultural heritage experience corridor, the long corridor of experiencing intangible cultural heritages, and developed tourism offerings to experience intangible culture heritages such as Miao New Year Celebration, Yao Medicine Bath and Health Care Tour, and Duyun Maojian Tea Production Experience Tour. Presently, the transformation and utilization of intangible cultural heritage have become an important approach to promoting the tourism industry in Guizhou.
In fact, there are many such cases. For example, the Grand Tang Mall in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, attracts tourists from all over the world primarily through paper-cut creations, clay sculptures, shadow puppetry, Western Qin embroidery, Qin Opera masks, and other intangible cultural heritage crafts and derivatives, making the mall a must-visit tourist destination, especially for young people; The Xiguan Yongqingfang Tourist Area in Guangzhou of Guangdong Province incorporates a number of non-traditional fashion shows with gold-embroidered skirts and coats in the Lingnan folklore "Touring Flower Market", a big eye-opener for visitors; In Qingjiang Gallery Scenic Area of Changyang Tujia Autonomous County in Yichang of Hubei Province, tourists can experience the intangible cultural heritage crafts such as Tujia brocade, handmade insoles, and straw sandals, and immerse themselves in the local customs.
In the new epoch, China is well positioned to make contributions and walk proudly into the future. The country will remain committed to creative transformation and innovative development, improve the systematic protection of the intangible cultural heritages, protect, inherit and develop the intangible cultural heritages by exhibiting great cultural confidence to ensure the diverse and profound intangible cultural heritages are passed on from generation to generation while keeping pace with the times. In this way, the "intangible cultural heritages will showcase a new look and radiate fresh brilliance", thus unleashing the power of the times. (by Hou Wei)
非遗是中华优秀传统文化的重要组成部分,让非遗“活”起来,“火”起来,对提升中华文化影响力至关重要。近年来,中国非遗保护传承成效显著,推动了中华优秀传统文化实现创造性转化创新性发展,文化遗产进一步“活起来”。截至2021年底,中国共有各级非遗代表性项目10万余项,其中国家级非遗代表性项目1557项;各级代表性传承人9万余名,其中国家级非遗代表性传承人3062名;列入联合国教科文组织非遗名录、名册项目42项,数量位列世界第一。
实现生产性保护
近年来,中国积极落实“保护为主、抢救第一、合理利用、传承发展”的工作方针,非遗保护传承取得显著成效,进入系统性保护新阶段,提供了非遗保护传承实践的“中国方案”。
2011年,中国非物质文化遗产法颁布实施,为非遗保护传承工作奠定坚实法律基础。2021年,中国印发《关于进一步加强非物质文化遗产保护工作的意见》,为做好新时代非遗保护工作指明目标方向。同时,中国逐步健全配套政策,搭建起非遗保护传承法规体系的主体框架。截至2022年,中央财政已累计投入国家非遗保护资金96.5亿元,并安排17.85亿元用于实施国家非遗保护利用设施建设项目,许多省(区、市)也安排了专门经费用于本地区非遗保护传承工作。
各地积极探索非遗保护传承。甘肃境内非遗资源丰富,截至目前,花儿、环县道情皮影戏、格萨(斯)尔3个项目入选联合国教科文组织人类非遗代表作名录,另有83项国家级、493项省级非遗代表性项目,并认定68名国家级、617名省级非遗代表性传承人。甘肃围绕非遗保护、传承、弘扬、传播等重点任务,不断挖掘非遗内涵及当代价值,通过健全政策法规体系、完善保护传承制度、持续增加财政投入、加大非遗传播力度,各级非遗保护机构和人才队伍建设不断健全,生产性保护成效明显,整体性保护工作取得进展,数字化保护有序展开,甘肃非遗系统性保护工作取得新成效。
探索创新性发展
随着时代发展,当前,跨界融合的“非遗+”成为非遗创新性发展的重要表征,主要表现为“非遗+旅游”“非遗+电商”“非遗+文创”等类型。贵州拥有苗族飞歌、侗族大歌、民族刺绣、蜡染等非遗项目,非遗资源丰厚。近年来,贵州大力发展以“传统农耕文化+非遗+体验”为主题的乡村旅游线路,将传统村落打造为非遗研学体验点,推出苗疆非遗研学主题体验走廊、百里侗寨非遗主题体验走廊等精品线路,以及欢度苗年节庆游、瑶族药浴康养游、都匀毛尖茶制作体验游等非遗体验旅游产品。如今,对非遗的转化利用已成为推动贵州旅游产业发展的重要抓手。
实际上,这样的例子还有很多。例如,陕西西安的大唐不夜城通过剪纸、泥塑、皮影、西秦刺绣、秦腔脸谱等非遗工艺品、衍生品来吸引四方游客,成为年轻人争相“打卡”的旅游目的地;广东广州的西关永庆坊旅游区在岭南民俗“行花街”中融入多场钉金绣裙褂非遗时装秀,让往来游客大开眼界;在湖北宜昌长阳土家族自治县清江画廊景区,游客能够亲身参与和体验土家织锦、手工鞋垫、编制草鞋等非遗工艺,沉浸式感受当地风土人情。
建功新时代,阔步向未来。中国将坚持创造性转化、创新性发展,提高非遗系统性保护水平,以坚定的文化自信保护好传承好发展好非遗,让绚丽多彩、浓厚深重的非遗既薪火相传,又与时俱进,让“非遗展新颜,瑰宝生新辉”,焕发出时代的力量。(侯伟)
