Dialogue and Care:The image of Macao Fine Arts in the New Era
The diversity of Macao's image is reflected in not only the regional cultural characteristics,but also in the images shown by fine arts works of the region.The image of Macao,a bridgehead for Western missionaries and overseas explorers in China,has been reshaped by both eastern and Western cultures,contributing greatly to its major characteristic of inclusiveness of eastern and Western art.Anyway,Macao fine arts is different from that of other regions,with few traditional ones to imitate.However,both Chinnery and Gao Jianfu have left for Macao because of the artistic"tradition"of life-facing,intro-and extra-exploring and self-caring practice,and built its regional art image while creating the"dialogue-mode"art and culture of Macao.
