Liangzhu Museum (良渚博物館) Part 1, Hangzhou, China
Poorly publicized museum in the picturesque city of Hangzhou, designed by David Chipperfield. The building and the exhibits deserve much more visitors. Take the exit from West Lake and spend half a day here would definitely be rewarded. Review of architecture at here:

[拱墅區] 橋西歷史街區 (景點)
拱宸橋為杭州城區現存最大的石拱橋，也是京杭大運河行到杭州的終點標誌。橋西歷史街區即因位於拱宸橋西岸而得名，歷史悠久，在清朝時是拱宸橋區繁榮的水陸碼頭，街區現仍保有最完整的清末民初河岸民房建築，及許多近現代工業遺址。廠房現已改造為博物館區，在其基礎上建成中國刀剪劍博物館、中國扇博物館、中國傘博物館等，於近代民族工業發展的歷史記憶上展現新貌。街區也集中了老字號的藥鋪，打造為養生保健街區，也有咖啡廳等特色商店，於老歷史中長出新的藝術文化風貌。

Taiwanese cartoonist honoured with museum in China
(17 May 2009) SHOTLIST
Taipei, Taiwan - 14 April 2009
1. Wide of Taiwanese cartoonist Chu Teh-yung sketching on a blank paper
2. Close-up the sketch
3. Close-up Chu
4. Mid of sketch
5. Mid of sketch depicting reporter, photographer and cameraman
6. Various of sketch
7. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Chu Teh-yung, Taiwanese cartoonist:
In fact they (Taiwanese and mainland Chinese readers) share the same feeling to my work. They just like it. They all feel the same that they would say 'Why are you able to draw these?' and 'What you draw is what I have experienced before.' I remember one person said, 'Are you living next to me? How would you be able to know what had happened in my family?' They all have the same feeling (after reading my cartoons). This just reflects human nature.
8. Various of drawings in comic books and comic strips
9.SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Chu Teh-yung, Taiwanese cartoonist:
People have already forgotten their childhoods. In fact people should always remind themselves how they lived their lives when they were children, as being true to yourself brings real happiness. Politics brings the most unhappy things to people. It should be thrown far away.
Hangzhou city, Zhejiang province, China - April 29, 2009

15. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Wang Shiyao, Hangzhou citizen, Comic book fan
I think it (the humour centre) is going to be very helpful to educate the youngsters. These ideas in his comic series are so fresh to us and his comic series like Shuangxiangpao are my favourite.
16. Close up of Chu viewing and signing contract to build humour centre
17. Mid shot of Chu signing contract

19. Zoom out of Chu shaking hand with a local official on stage
20. Wide shot of the interior of the signing ceremony venue
21. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Chu Teh-yung, Taiwanese cartoonist:
Many people often ask me whether the Chinese have a sense of humour, and my answer is yes, they do. People just don't notice it. I hope I can send the 'message of laughter' via my comics and humour; and I hope the humour centre here can become a significant cultural landmark. And most importantly, I hope it can help people feel the influence of laughter in our daily life.
Taipei, Taiwan - 14 April 2009
22. Wide of five comic books that have been translated to English or Korean
23. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Chu Teh-yung, Taiwanese cartoonist:
They (the Chinese authorities) just want to build an animation and cartoon production base. As I mentioned earlier, they just want the best. Once the best gets in, the others will follow suit. And once they get in, they will naturally create their works there. Once they build such a museum, they will turn it to a cultural landmark. Hangzhou province is a tourist attraction which attracts people from all provinces. When there is a Chu Teh-yung museum, people will go there when they visit Hangzhou, which is good for tourism.
24. Mid of cartoon characters made of clay
25. Tilt up a clay cartoon character depicting a middle-aged woman
26. SOUNDBITE: (Mandarin) Chu Teh-yung, Taiwanese cartoonist:
When readers read my comics, they have entered my world of humour. The characters that exist in this world of humour are created by me. Such world is actually representing reality. But this virtual comic world is in fact making us happier than the real world.
27. Pan a cartoon character in comic The Absolute Kid

Wu Guanzhong (simplified Chinese: 吳冠中; traditional Chinese: 吳冠中; August 29, 1919 – June 25, 2010)[1] was a contemporary Chinese painter widely recognized as a founder of modern Chinese painting.[2] He is considered to be one of the greatest contemporary Chinese painters. Wu's artworks had both Western and Eastern influences, such as the Western style of Fauvism and the Eastern style of Chinese calligraphy. Wu had painted various aspects of China, including much of its architecture, plants, animals, people, as well as many of its landscapes and waterscapes in a style reminiscent of the impressionist painters of the early 1900s. He was also a writer on contemporary Chinese art.[
Wu was born in a village in Yixing, Jiangsu province, in 1919. His family wanted him to become a teacher just like his father had been. In 1935, Wu passed the entrance exam and studied electrical engineering at Zhejiang Industrial School (浙江公立工业专门学校, a technical school of Zhejiang University) in Hangzhou. While in engineering school, Wu met an art student named Zhu Dequn who was studying at the National Hangzhou Academy of Art. During a trip to Zhu’s school, Wu got his first look at art and fell "madly in love" with it.[4] Against his father’s wishes, in 1936 he transferred to the art academy, studying both Chinese and Western painting under Pan Tianshou (1897–1971) and Lin Fengmian (1900–1991). Wu went through many trials and challenges during his years in college before he could master his craft. In 1937 the Sino-Japanese War began and the campus had to pick up and relocate in order to get out of the way of the invading Japanese army. During the constant movement during the war, Wu was able to see many different locations. He considered the adventures as a necessary journey to becoming a man and building his character. Wu benefitted greatly from the many teachers who taught him to paint and the rough journey to becoming a man. In 1942 he graduated from Hangzhou National Academy of Art and tried to find a job. During the war jobs were hard to find and Wu took a part-time job as a substitute teacher. He later found a job as a water color and drawing teacher in the Architecture Department of Chongqing University. After Wu graduated he continued to hone his craft and studied with some of his old colleagues from school like Zhu Dequn, Li Lincan and Zheng Wei. Each of these friends continued their art careers and left their mark on the art scene. [4] In 1946 Wu applied for one of the two art study abroad spots and was the best applicant who applied, this was in part to his French language studies. 1947 traveled to Paris to study at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts on the government scholarship. Even though France was still recovering from World War II, Wu was completely enthralled with the art. He visited all of the major museums within the first few days of his arrival. Wu was always a tremendous fan of French and European art. While in Europe, Wu realized the many cultural and religious differences between Europe and China. This was a difficult barrier for him to overcome to understand and appreciate some of the art. Wu found a great interest in the modern art of France despite his studying in European artistic traditions. He took a great liking to the Post-Impressionists like van Gogh, Gauguin and Cézanne. Wu loved van Gogh the most because of van Gogh’s passion for art and the internal torment he endured. Wu also felt the hardships that Gauguin felt when he left Paris for a South Pacific island in order to find his own personal ideal. Gauguin eventually died on the island. This trip helped Wu grasp the idea of form and the basic meaning of art. The study abroad trip also led to formalism becoming the basic underlying element of his art and studying in France helped him better understand formalism.

CHINA 中国 BEST SHOPPING IN BEIJING // VLOG#91
We're still loving Beijing and this week we even get to see some beautiful blue skies! This week we try to find the best shopping Beijing has to offer..keeping in mind we don't have much space in our 40L backpacks...which also helps to keep us on budget. Our first stop is the famous Silk Road where you can get a copy/knick-off of just about any clothing or fashion related item your heart desires. Kate is not a big shopper but even she had fun here. Bring your haggling skills and some money for coffee. Next on our agenda is to add some more culture to our lives so we make our way to the Capital Museum of China. Admission is free but you have to register in advance (in Mandarin) so we just asked the nice folks at our hotel to call for us and all was smooth as silk. Make sure to put this Museum on your itinerary when visiting Beijing, it's definitely worth investing an afternoon to check out the exhibits. This place is truly a treasure trove of history. For some more shopping we roll on over to another famous Beijing copy mall, the Pearl Market which we didn't like nearly as much as silk road. To close out, we link up with some expat friends who take us out for a truly local dining experience that was just amazing! While taking our after-meal stroll we happen across some Duck fans who see my shirt and get really..REALLY...excited..perhaps having a blood alcohol content higher than their age had something to do with the excitement. All too soon its time to leave Beijing and the friends we've made here. We can't wait to come back and explore even more of this amazing city and country!
Want to collaborate? We'd love to! Email us at 2D8K8sno9@gmail.com
