Erfuzhuang prose
sometimes, things are often coincidental. Twenty years later, I lived behind Xi 'an Academy of Fine Arts. Xi 'an Academy of Fine Arts, known as the only higher academy of fine arts in northwest China, was founded in 1949. Its predecessor was the Art School of Northwest Military and Political University, which was established in September 1948. Marshal He Long was the first president, and Xi 'an people like to call it the Academy of Fine Arts. In the past, the old address of the Academy of Fine Arts was on the bank of Shaoling, Chang 'an, with a wide field of vision, a mulberry field in Taoyuan, and a cloud crossing the south. Is it a good place for sketching? ! I don't know why, but I moved to this place in the 199s, blocking Weier Street, standing abruptly, with arrows piercing through the heart, pointed roofs, and geometrically westernized buildings, which are somewhat murderous, perhaps to gather geomantic omen, or to ward off evil spirits! ? People in China pay attention to Tao, the causal transformation of everything has its vanquisher, and a more flexible culture.
There are thousands of cities on one side, which is an unavoidable reality in China's urbanization. For a period of time, universities entered the city and expanded their enrollment in succession; For a period of time, the university combination changed its name; For a while, I went out of the city to encircle the land, and it was vast and so on. Tossing and tossing, the Academy of Fine Arts also built a campus in Lintong, not to mention right or wrong for the time being. It is precisely because the Academy of Fine Arts entered the city that it climbed up with Erfuzhuang.
About twenty years ago, when I was studying near Xiaozhai, the fire of campus literature in China was blazing, and I helped to set up a middle school student literature magazine called Middle School Students' Literary Exquisite, and later called Teenagers' Literary Exquisite. Everyone is addicted to the beautiful dream of literature, and they can't get rid of it without seeking it. The magazine design was a classmate of Guo Sansheng who was studying in the Academy of Fine Arts at that time. I remember one time, he asked me to visit him at Erfuzhuang on weekends. It was a winter, very cold, and I remember it vividly. Without a mobile phone, I rode a broken bicycle and found the house number all the way to the Erfuzhuang hut he rented. The house is on the second floor, not very small, but spacious, right? ! At that time, the rent was about twenty or thirty dollars a month. The houses in the three provinces are all painted, but the oil paintings are not well painted. They are in a mess, very avant-garde, very avant-garde and very cutting-edge. There was no stove, and it was very cold. We were fooling around, and now we can't remember what we were talking about. Anyway, at noon, he went down and bought a bag of dried noodles. We used an electric stove and a steel pot to clean the noodles, and we ate them very well without a trace of vegetables.
Erfuzhuang at that time was an "art village" for students of the Academy of Fine Arts. Because the weather is very cold, there is nothing to sell in the street, there are not many places to eat, and there are not many pedestrians in the roadway, which is far from the prosperity of auspicious village foot massage shop.
after graduation, the three provinces worked in several photo studios in Xi' an, and they haven't seen him since they drifted north. In recent years, I read some photography magazines in my spare time to know that he has become a famous fashion photographer and graphic designer. Shaanxi baby is difficult to go out, I am seeking stability and so on. Guo Sansheng has dreams, dares to travel, seizes opportunities and creates opportunities with a sincere heart and a down-to-earth attitude towards work and life, and his thoughts are advanced and commendable! Some people say that he pays attention to the post-processing of photos, which is full of momentum, colorful and full of personality. In fact, when he was in college, his experience in the Academy of Fine Arts developed a composition perspective, oil painting processing and a keen sense of smell and culture. I think art has a great influence on his photography.
It is estimated that there will be many successful people like Guo Sansheng who walked out of Erfuzhuang.
This summer, I came home from the "Buckwheat Garden" and slowly enjoyed the nightlife of Erfuzhuang. Erfuzhuang's road is not wide, but it is full of lights, people are buzzing and people are shuttling, which is very lively. It is said that because people often get drunk and sing songs, get carried away, urinate and relax, burn several street greening trees, and garden workers transplant them several times, all of which die because the soil is too hot. Maybe this is a fabricated story!
on the street hundreds of meters away, people who set up stalls, buy baked wheat cakes, maocai, casserole, lamb kidneys of kebabs, and noodles with rice noodles are all available. The air smells of perfume, stinky tofu, smoke and wine, full of the smelly sweat of male hormones, mixed together, and fireworks are flying. People come and go in groups of three or five, or cross-legged, wearing different styles, wearing jewelry with their navel on, tattooing with their arms dangling, and wearing hats in summer, not knowing whether they are mannequins or young artists, wandering singers and performance art. Anyway, everyone goes their own way and is happy. Occasionally, because of a trivial matter, the high-pitched voice will eventually be knocked down by those seemingly fragile chivalrous women! A small village, a small society, a literary and art circle, live in peace and live in peace!
It wasn't long before Erfuzhuang was razed to the ground by an excavator overnight. Loudspeakers are publicized every day, and tricycles are busy moving in and out. Erfuzhuang, which was razed to the ground, made me feel even sadder. The broken bricks were all over the floor, and nothing was long. It was more uncomfortable than the rural crops, and it was lifeless! Without the breath of youth and art. Although there are villages in the city such as Haojiacun, Luojiaxiang and auspicious village next to the Academy of Fine Arts that have not been demolished, the "art village" and "free land" belonging to the students of the Academy of Fine Arts are gone due to the distance and artistic atmosphere.
Every minute, in the land of China, villages disappear at any time; The land where memory grew up, the symbol of culture and the hometown of spirit are getting farther and farther away from us! The road to urbanization has to go, but where is the spiritual home that belongs to each of us?
Now, when I see the bare Erfuzhuang after the demolition, I think of the three provinces of Guo. This land has lost its soul and popularity.
I have never asked him why he got the name of "Guo San Province". Maybe literature is too poisoned. I once arbitrarily thought it was one of "three provinces a day". ! Parents hope that he often introspects himself. Later, I learned that the mothers of the three provinces are from Sichuan, the fathers are from Shaanxi, and the grandfathers are from Hubei, so they are called "three provinces of Guo", which is another meaning. Simple name, not simple life and experience, hidden struggle, perseverance and perseverance, eternal smile to life.
