“ 今日中國” 藝術(shù)周開幕式現(xiàn)場，中俄雙方嘉賓共同種下友誼樹Opening ceremony of the "China Today" Art Week, both sides of China and Russia jointly plant the tree of friendship.

10月之末，11月之初，俄羅斯的廣袤大地上，已經(jīng)浸透了濃濃的秋意。金黃的落葉，鋪滿了鄉(xiāng)野的一處處角落，點綴著城市的一條條街巷。這一番美景，就像俄羅斯當(dāng)代著名作家康·帕烏斯托夫斯基在散文集《金薔薇》中所說，“蕭蕭的落葉將灑滿落寞的水面，白樺林像是一群美麗的姑娘，披著繡有金黃葉子的圍巾，亭亭玉立地佇立在那里”。就在這樣一個美好的金秋時節(jié)，在2018年中俄地方合作交流年之際，應(yīng)俄羅斯邊疆區(qū)克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院和莫斯科中國文化中心邀請，中國文聯(lián)組派藝術(shù)團到俄羅斯舉辦2018“今日中國”藝術(shù)周。本次活動分別在克拉斯諾達爾和莫斯科舉辦，包括黃梅戲《天仙配》全劇演出、黃梅戲折子戲演出、“影像中國40年”攝影展覽、“中國電影113年”圖片展覽等一系列內(nèi)容。

這次藝術(shù)周的第一站，選擇了俄羅斯南部重鎮(zhèn)克拉斯諾達爾。這座安謐幽靜的城市，在中國知名度并不高，她坐落在黑海之濱——庫班河畔，是克拉斯諾達爾邊疆區(qū)的首府。這座城市人口雖不足百萬，各類劇場卻超過40座，還有11家電影院，38家展覽館和博物館，市民對藝術(shù)的熱愛可見一斑。在貫穿全城的紅色大街上，雕塑、噴泉、紀(jì)念碑彼此呼應(yīng)，兩側(cè)的街道上更是遍布畫廊、書店和各種藝術(shù)品商店，整條長街仿佛一首歡暢流動的樂曲，就連漫步于街頭的行人，仿佛也變成了一個個靈動的音符。黃梅戲《天仙配》演出的音樂劇院，就坐落在這條全城最繁華的大街上。這座古樸典雅的建筑物正上方，印有中俄兩國文字的中國黃梅戲經(jīng)典劇目《天仙配》的大幅宣傳海報，多日來一直吸引著路人流連的目光。演出票在開演前幾天就銷售一空。這里的人們，在一天天期待著中國藝術(shù)家們的到來。

《天仙配》正式上演的日子終于來到了。10月31日，傍晚時分的紅色大街上，北風(fēng)凜冽，寒意逼人，街燈的光線仿佛都被凍住了，無力穿透四處飛舞的落葉。但是，嚴(yán)寒阻擋不了熱愛藝術(shù)的人們，上千名當(dāng)?shù)赜^眾仍然在寒風(fēng)中走進了有著85年歷史的音樂劇院。

當(dāng)晚，作為2018“今日中國”藝術(shù)周的重要環(huán)節(jié)，在中國家喻戶曉的《天仙配》將由安徽黃梅戲劇院的演員第一次在克里斯諾達爾上演。2018“今日中國”藝術(shù)周在克拉斯諾達爾市的活動由中國文聯(lián)、克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院主辦，中國攝協(xié)、中國電影博物館、安徽省黃梅戲劇院、北京拉古爾斯影視文化傳播有限公司，克拉斯諾達爾創(chuàng)作聯(lián)合體——克拉斯諾達爾音樂劇院承辦，這也是克拉斯諾達爾首次迎來如此大規(guī)模的中國藝術(shù)團。中國文聯(lián)副主席、書記處書記李前光，中國攝協(xié)駐會副主席鄭更生，中國文藝志愿者服務(wù)中心主任、中國文藝志愿者協(xié)會副主席兼秘書長廖懇，俄羅斯克拉斯諾達爾邊疆區(qū)內(nèi)政部部長莫斯卡列娃·賈麗娜，邊疆區(qū)文化部副部長馬克西姆·烏薩丘科，克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院院長謝爾蓋·謝苗諾維奇·津根等出席了當(dāng)晚的開幕式。

李前光在致辭中表示，中國和俄羅斯是兩個偉大的國家，我們不僅都擁有悠久的歷史和偉大的文明，更是山水相連的好鄰居，守望相助的好朋友，精誠合作的好伙伴。兩國人民的親近絕不只是因為地緣相鄰，近年來，中俄地方合作蓬勃發(fā)展，而文學(xué)藝術(shù)更是溝通各國人民心靈和情感的重要紐帶。他希望俄羅斯民眾通過中國高水平藝術(shù)家?guī)淼脑兜闹袊囆g(shù)進一步了解領(lǐng)略中國文化魅力，增進中俄人民之間的傳統(tǒng)友誼。

為了讓《天仙配》更適應(yīng)俄羅斯觀眾的欣賞習(xí)慣，安徽省黃梅戲劇院提前一年就對這部戲進行了改編，不但精簡了演出時間，多處臺詞、配樂也進行了精益求精的調(diào)整。演出開始前，盡管剛剛經(jīng)過20多個小時、兩次轉(zhuǎn)機、總航程超過一萬多公里的長途飛行，演員們一下飛機，就在第一時間精神抖擻地投入到演出前的準(zhǔn)備中。艱辛的付出總會有豐厚的回報——在當(dāng)晚的舞臺上，演員們的唱腔婉轉(zhuǎn)優(yōu)美、表演絲絲入扣，加之精致典雅的服飾、舞姿，一千多名當(dāng)?shù)赜^眾被中國傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)的魅力深深折服，不少觀眾為董永和七仙女命運多舛的愛情流下了熱淚，演出大獲成功。盡管演出已經(jīng)結(jié)束，大批觀眾仍然圍攏在劇院中久久不舍離去，一次次拉著尚未卸妝的演員合影，向演出主辦方了解更多關(guān)于《天仙配》、關(guān)于中國戲曲的信息。一位名叫列吉婭的觀眾是供職于邊疆區(qū)經(jīng)濟統(tǒng)計部的公職人員，她說，克拉斯諾達爾人民素來有熱愛藝術(shù)的傳統(tǒng)，自己平時也很喜歡觀看戲劇，這次能在自己居住的城市里看到充滿東方韻味的演出，這樣的機會實在太難得了。看完當(dāng)天的演出后，感覺中國的戲曲藝術(shù)和西方的戲劇相比，演員的表演更加自然，夸張的成分非常少。這部戲的劇情雖然來自于中國古老的民間傳說，但在俄文字幕的幫助下，理解起來沒有太大困難。記者了解到，為了滿足更多沒有機會親臨現(xiàn)場的俄羅斯觀眾的欣賞需求，演出結(jié)束后，克拉斯諾達爾的庫班-24電視臺還專門全劇播放了配有俄文字幕的黃梅戲電影《天仙配》。

當(dāng)晚，就在《天仙配》在音樂劇院內(nèi)上演時，由中國攝協(xié)承辦的“影像中國40年”攝影展也在劇院的演出大廳外舉行。本次展覽共展出攝影作品80幅，采用一一對應(yīng)的方式呈現(xiàn)，即外國攝影師拍攝的改革開放初期的中國影像與中國攝影師拍攝的當(dāng)今中國影像并置，采用中外、新舊、觀察視角、影像風(fēng)格等多重對比手法，清晰體現(xiàn)了改革開放40年以來中國所發(fā)生的巨大變化。攝影展在克拉斯諾達爾音樂劇院展出5天后，還將在克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院繼續(xù)展出一個月。

“能否介紹一下中國的戲曲和世界其他國家戲劇的區(qū)別？”“中國的戲曲有著漫長的歷史，在近代以前一直是獨立發(fā)展的，后來和各國的戲劇接觸后，中國戲曲也受到了影響，但是中國戲曲最顯著的程式化特點始終沒有改變，這是在研究、欣賞中國戲曲時都是必須要注意到的?！薄?0月30日，安徽黃梅戲劇院包括多名梅花獎獲得者在內(nèi)的部分演員還來到克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院和師生們進行了面對面的深入交流。他們不但示范表演了《女駙馬》《天仙配》等作品的經(jīng)典唱段，還現(xiàn)場回答了師生們關(guān)于中國戲曲的問題。伊蓮娜是該校戲劇系青年教師，她告訴記者，自己雖然早就知道中國的戲曲是一種非常特殊的戲劇形式，也曾經(jīng)在網(wǎng)絡(luò)和專業(yè)媒體上了解過中國戲曲的信息，但這次現(xiàn)場看到中國戲曲演員的表演，對戲曲的真實形態(tài)有了更加清晰的認(rèn)識，大大激發(fā)了自己以后繼續(xù)關(guān)注中國戲曲的熱情。

11月1日，由中國電影博物館承辦的“中國電影113年”圖片展覽在克拉斯諾達爾國立文化學(xué)院開展。110塊采取中國傳統(tǒng)畫軸形式，以宣紙印刷、絲綢綾子裝裱的展板，即刻吸引了現(xiàn)場觀眾的目光，絹人、浮陶、泥塑、戲服等充滿中國傳統(tǒng)文化氣息的實物展品，給俄羅斯觀眾娓娓道來中國電影113年來發(fā)展變化的同時，也讓觀眾沉浸到一派原汁原味的中國傳統(tǒng)文化的氣息中。

11月3日，在順利完成了在克拉斯諾達爾的日程后，“今日中國”藝術(shù)周系列活動又來到俄羅斯首都莫斯科繼續(xù)進行。

“中國演員在舞臺上的姿態(tài)、表情都非常豐富，更讓我感到驚奇的是，在表演中演員的手都好像會說話一樣，手勢和劇情有著非常巧妙的聯(lián)系，這種‘手語’在歐洲的戲劇里是非常罕見的，中國的戲曲真的太神奇了！”在11月3日晚的莫斯科中國文化中心，莫斯科市民伊娜看完了作為2018“今日中國”藝術(shù)周組成部分的黃梅戲折子戲?qū)鲅莩龊筮@樣說。伊娜告訴記者，中國的戲曲除了外在的表演形式和歐洲的戲劇有著諸多不同，當(dāng)晚的這些節(jié)目雖然只是整部作品的片段，但也鮮明地體現(xiàn)出東方文化的獨特韻味，里面的文化內(nèi)涵非常豐富。自己已經(jīng)退休了，一直在籌備明年去中國旅行，通過觀看今晚的節(jié)目，看來自己到達中國后的行程必須增加一個內(nèi)容，“我知道黃梅戲是中國的地方戲之一，中國還有很多劇種，我無論到了中國的哪個地方，一定要到當(dāng)?shù)氐膭≡豪锶ズ煤眯蕾p那里的地方戲曲”。

當(dāng)晚，中國安徽省黃梅戲劇院的演員們?yōu)橛^眾帶來了《劉海戲金蟾》選段《十五的月亮為誰圓》，《天仙配》選段《夫妻雙雙把家還》，《女駙馬》選段《狀元府》和《洞房》，《小喬初嫁》選段《對酒當(dāng)歌》等傳統(tǒng)劇目，以及新編黃梅小戲《六尺巷》。駐俄羅斯大使館文化參贊兼莫斯科中國文化中心主任龔佳佳，以及當(dāng)?shù)赜嘘P(guān)機構(gòu)負責(zé)人觀看了此次演出。除了對中國傳統(tǒng)文化興趣濃厚的莫斯科市民，來到現(xiàn)場的還有眾多學(xué)習(xí)、工作于此的中國觀眾。在莫斯科經(jīng)商25年之久的張興成專程帶著家人驅(qū)車趕來觀看演出。他說，自己雖然是山東人，但對來自祖國任何地方的藝術(shù)家和藝術(shù)作品都非常歡迎，更何況當(dāng)晚的節(jié)目中還包括眾多在國內(nèi)家喻戶曉的經(jīng)典唱段。自己的孩子在家庭環(huán)境的熏陶下對祖國的傳統(tǒng)文化也非常感興趣，經(jīng)常上網(wǎng)尋找相關(guān)的內(nèi)容。當(dāng)?shù)弥袊穆?lián)選派這么多的藝術(shù)家?guī)е姸鄡?yōu)秀作品來到莫斯科，早早就網(wǎng)上報名，就是希望能讓孩子現(xiàn)場感受到祖國戲曲藝術(shù)的魅力。

盡管當(dāng)晚的演出持續(xù)到深夜，第二天一早，參加2018“今日中國”藝術(shù)周活動的藝術(shù)家們?nèi)匀徊晦o勞苦，來到位于莫斯科郊外的中共六大會址參觀，中共六大會址常設(shè)展覽館副館長馬先軍向大家詳細介紹了中共六大召開的歷史背景、會議進程和重要意義。《小喬初嫁》中“小喬”的扮演者何云說，我們今天的幸福生活離不開革命先輩的無私奉獻。黃梅戲劇院特意把今天作為黨員活動日，而今天的參觀，是一堂生動的黨課，通過對革命先輩的奮斗歷史的了解，自己對習(xí)近平總書記所提出的“不忘初心，牢記使命”，有了更加深刻、更加清晰的認(rèn)識。作為一名黨員文藝工作者，要時刻牢記自己的使命就是要不斷把更多優(yōu)秀的文藝作品奉獻給人民群眾。當(dāng)晚，曾經(jīng)在克拉斯諾達爾引發(fā)人們觀看熱潮的“影像中國40年”攝影展也來到莫斯科，在蓋達爾文化宮繼續(xù)舉行。

11月5日，來自中國的藝術(shù)家還訪問了享譽全球并曾多次赴華演出的紅旗歌舞團。該團駐地是一座樣式樸素的四層建筑，坐落在一條遠離鬧市區(qū)的小街上，路對面就是該團創(chuàng)始人、指揮家亞歷山大·瓦西里耶維奇·亞歷山大德羅夫的雕像。雕像前的一束束鮮花，凝結(jié)著人們對這位杰出藝術(shù)家的殷切懷念。供職該團已經(jīng)有65年之久的功勛演員、歌唱家維克多向來自中國的藝術(shù)家們詳細介紹了該團的歷史，還深情回憶了自己隨團赴中國演出的難忘經(jīng)歷。他說，中俄兩國都有一個非常相似的傳統(tǒng)，就是優(yōu)秀的、經(jīng)典的、獲得廣泛認(rèn)可的藝術(shù)作品，往往都有著濃郁鮮明的民族風(fēng)格，都和本國民間文化有著非常深厚的聯(lián)系。他鼓勵參加此次活動的中國藝術(shù)家們一定要好好向本國的群眾學(xué)習(xí)，真正地把流傳在他們中間的傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)的種子吸收到自己的創(chuàng)作中來。

黃梅戲《天仙配》首場演出現(xiàn)場Debut of Huangmei Opera Tianxian Pei

At the end of October and the beginning of November,Russia's vast land has been saturated with a strong feeling of autumn. The golden leaves covered all corners of the countryside, dotting streets and alleys of the city. This beautiful scenery, just like the famous contemporary Russian writer K.Paustovsky said in the essay collection "Golden Rose", "Fallen leaves will cover the lonely water. The birch forest is like beautiful girls,embroidered with golden leaves as scarf, standing there slimly and silently." In such a beautiful golden autumn season, on the occasion of the 2018 China-Russia Year of Local Cooperation and Exchange,the CFLAC has sent a troupe to Russia to hold 2018 "China Today" Art Week at the invitation of the Krasnodar State Cultural Institute of the Russian Frontier Region and the Moscow Chinese Cultural Center.The event was held in Krasnodar and Moscow respectively, including a full-length performance ofTianxian Pei, an opera highlights of Huangmei Opera, a "Photography China 40 Years" exhibition and"113 Years of Chinese Film" photo exhibition and etc.

The first stop of the art week has chosen Krasnodar, an important town in southern Russia. This quiet city is not well known in China,as she is located on the shore of the Black Sea by the banks of the Kuban River, the capital of the Krasnodar Territory. Although the city has a population of less than one million, there are more than 40 theaters, 11 cinemas, 38 exhibition halls and museums. The public's passion for art is so evident that on the Red street running through the city, sculptures, fountains and monuments echo each other. Both sides of the street are also full of galleries, bookstores and various art shops. The whole long street is like a piece of happy flowing music,even strolling pedestrians on the street seem to have become the amazing notes. Located on the most prosperous street in the city,the music theatre will present theTianxian Peiof Huangmei Opera.Just above this simple and elegant building, the large-scale poster of the Chinese Huangmei Opera classicTianxian Peiprinted with Chinese and Russian characters has been attracting the attention of passers-by for many days recently. According to reports, the tickets for the show were sold out within few days. The people here are looking forward to the arrival of Chinese artists every day.

The day for the official show ofTianxian Peihas finally come. On October 31st, the north wind is blowing along the red streets in the evening, as if the light of the street lights seems to be frozen, unable to penetrate the fallen leaves. However, the coldness can't stop people who are keen in art. Thousands of local audiences still walk into the 85-year-old music theater in the cold wind.

黃梅戲《天仙配》首場演出現(xiàn)場Debut of Huangmei Opera Tianxian Pei

In that special evening, as an important part of the 2018 "China Today" Art Week, theTianxian Pei, which is well-known in China, will be staged by the artists of Anhui Huangmei Opera Theatre for the first time in Krasnodar. Among them, the related events concerning 2018 "China Today" Art Week in Krasnodar are organized by the CFLAC and Krasnodar State Cultural Institute, and presented by China Photographers Association, China Film Museum, Anhui Huangmei Opera Theatre, RAKURS (Beijing) Movie & Television Culture Communication Company Ltd., and the Krasnodar Musical Theatre---the Krasnodar Creative Consortium, marking the first large-scale Chinese art troupe for this quiet city. LI Qianguang, Vice-President of the Executive Committee of the CFLAC, ZHENG Gengsheng,vice-President of China Photographers Association, LIAO Ken,director of the Chinese Literature and Art Volunteer Service Center and vice-chairman and secretary-general of the Chinese Literature and Art Volunteers Association, Galina Aleksandrovna Moskaleva,Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Krasnodar Territory, Maxim Mikhailovich Usatyuk, Deputy Minister of Culture of the Frontier Region, Sergey Semenovich Zengin, Dean of the National Institute of Culture of Krasnodar University and others have attended the opening ceremony of the evening.

In his speech, LI Qianguang said that China and Russia are two great countries. We not only have a long history and great civilization, but also are good neighbors connected by mountains and rivers, good friends who are looking forward to helping each other, and good partners with sincere cooperation. The closeness of the two peoples is not just because of geographical proximity. In recent years, China-Russia local cooperation has flourished, and literature and art are an important link to communicate the hearts and emotions of people of all countries. He hoped that the Russian people would further understand the charm of Chinese culture and enhance the friendship and understanding between the Chinese and Russian people through the original Chinese art brought by Chinese high-level artists.

In order to makeTianxian Peimore suitable for the appreciation habits of Russian audiences, the Huangmei Opera Theatre of Anhui Province has adapted this drama one year ahead of schedule, not only streamlining the performance time, but also adjusting the lines and soundtracks. Prior to the starting of the show, even though the long-distance flight, which had just passed more than 20 hours, two transits and a total flight of more than 10,000 kilometers, the artists were in the first place to prepare for the performance right after getting off the plane. The hard work shall always pay off handsomely.On the stage of the evening, the artists' singing voices are beautiful,the performances are superficial, together with the exquisite and elegant costumes and dances. More than 1,000 local Spectators were deeply impressed by the charm of Chinese traditional art. Many viewers shed tears for the love of DONG Yong and the Seven Fairies, and the performance was a great success. Although the performance has ended, a large number of spectators were still at the theater for a long time in order to take pictures with the Chinese artists who have not yet removed makeup, and learn more about theTianxian Peiand the Chinese opera. A spectator is a public official working in the Ministry of Economic Statistics of the Frontier Region. She said that Krasnodar has always had a tradition of loving art. She usually likes to watch drama, this time she can watch the show full of oriental charm in her city, which is such a rare opportunity. After watching the performance of the day, I think that the Chinese opera art is more natural and the exaggeration is very rare compared to the Western drama. Although the plot of the play comes from ancient Chinese legend, with the help of Russian subtitles, it is not too difficult to understand. The reporter also learned that in order to meet the appreciation needs of more Russian audiences who did not have the opportunity to visit the scene, Krasnodar's Kuban-24 TV station also broadcast a fullfledged Huangmei Opera movieTianxian Peiwith Russian subtitles after the performance.

On that evening, whenTianxian Peiwas staged in the music theater,the "Photography China 40 Years" exhibition hosted by the China Photographers Association was also held outside the theater's performance hall. A total of 80 photographs were exhibited in this exhibition, which were presented in a one-to-one correspondence.The Chinese images taken by foreign photographers in the early days of reform and opening up were juxtaposed with the current Chinese images taken by Chinese counterparts, employing Chinese,foreign, old and new perspectives, the multiple contrast techniques,such as image style, to clearly reflect the tremendous changes that have taken place in China since the reform and opening up 40 years ago. After five days of exhibition at the Krasnodar Music Theatre, the photo exhibition will continue for a month at the Krasnodar State Cultural Institute.

"Can you tell us about the difference between Chinese opera and the drama of other countries in the world?" "Chinese opera has a long history and has been independently developed before modern times.Later, after contact with dramas in various countries, Chinese opera has also been affected. However, the most notable stylized features of Chinese opera have not changed. This is something that must be noticed when studying and appreciating Chinese opera." On October 30th, some of the artists from Anhui Huangmei Opera Theater,including many Plum Performance Award winners, also came to the Krasnodar State Cultural Institute to have face-to-face exchanges with teachers and students. They not only demonstrated the classic singing works, such as The Female Prince Consort andTianxian Pei, but also answered the questions of the teachers and students about Chinese opera. Elena is a young teacher of the school's drama department. She told reporters that although she has long known that Chinese opera is a very special form of drama, and she once learned about Chinese opera from the Internet and professional media, but this time, she watched the performance of Chinese opera by artists, and had a clearer understanding of the true form of the opera, which greatly stimulated her enthusiasm for continuing to care about Chinese opera in the future.

On November 1st, the "China Film 113 Years" photo exhibition hosted by the China Film Museum was held at the Krasnodar State Cultural Institute. 110 pieces of displaying panels in forms of Chinese traditional drawing axis mounted with Xuan paper and silk immediately attracted the attention of the audiences, the silk figure,floating pottery, clay sculpture, costumes and other physical exhibits full of Chinese traditional culture conveyed to the Russian audience about development of Chinese film in the past 113 years, it also immersed the audiences in the atmosphere of the original Chinese traditional culture.

Since November 3rd, the "China Today" Art Week series has come to Moscow, the capital of Russia after successfully completing the schedule in Krasnodar.

"Chinese artists are very rich in postures and expressions on the stage. What makes me even more surprised is that in the performance, their hands seem to be able to talk as the gestures and the plots are very ingenious. This kind of 'sign language' is very rare in Europe drama, and the Chinese opera is really amazing!" On the evening of November 3rdat the Moscow Chinese Cultural Center,local citizen Ina watched the opera highlights of the Huangmei Opera in the 2018 "China Today" Art Week. She said that Chinese operas have many different forms in addition to their external performances.The programs of the evening were only fragments of the whole work, but they also vividly reflected the unique charm of abundant oriental culture. She has already retired and has been preparing to travel to China next year. After watching the show tonight, it seemed that she has to add a content to her trip after arriving in China. "I know that Huangmei Opera is one of the local operas in China. There are still many dramas in the country. No matter where I go in China, I must go to the local theaters to enjoy the local operas!"

In the evening, the artists of the Huangmei Opera Theatre in Anhui Province, China have brought the selection of theLIU Hai and Fairy of Golden Toad, Full Moon, andThe Couples Return Home,selection ofTianxian Pei, andMansionsandRoom for Marriage,selection ofThe Female Prince Consort, Song of Wine, selection ofMarriage of Little Qiaoand other traditional repertoires, and the newly-made Huangmei minor dramaSix-foot Lane. GONG Jiajia,Cultural Counselor of the Chinese Embassy in Russia and Director of the Moscow Chinese Cultural Center, and the heads of the relevant local institutions watched the performances. In addition to the citizens of Moscow who have a strong interest in Chinese traditional culture, there are many Chinese audiences who have studied and worked here. ZHANG Xingcheng, who has been in Moscow for 25 years for running business, made a special trip with his family to watch the show. He said that although he is a native of Shandong,he is very popular with artists and works of art from anywhere from the motherland, not to mention the classic arias that are wellknown in the country. His children are also very interested in the traditional culture of the motherland under the influence of the family environment. They often go online to find relevant content.I learned that the CFLAC has sent so many artists to Moscow with many excellent works. I registered online already, hoping to let the children experience the charm of the drama art of the motherland.Even though the performance lasted until late at night, the artists who participated in the 2018 "China Today" Art Week were still working hard the next morning. They came to visit the building of the 6thCongress of the Chinese Communist Party on the outskirts of Moscow, MA Xianjun, deputy-director of the permanent exhibition hall gave a detailed introduction to the historical background, the progress of the conference and the significance of the convening of the Sixth National Congress of the Communist Party of China.HE Yun, the actor of "Little Qiao" inMarriage of Little Qiao,said that our happy life today is inseparable from the selfless dedication of the revolutionary ancestors. The Huangmei Opera Theatre deliberately regards today as a CPC activity day, and today's visit is actually a vivid class of party history. Through the understanding of the struggle history of the revolutionary ancestors, he has a deeper and clearer understanding of "remain true to our original aspiration and keep our mission firmly in mind" proposed by CPC General Secretary XI Jinping. As a party member and artist, I always keep in mind that my mission is to continually dedicate more outstanding literary and artistic works to the people. That night,the "Photography China 40 Years" exhibition, which once sparked quite a heat in Krasnodar, also came to Moscow and continued in the Gaidarovets Culture Center.

On November 5th, artists from China also visited the Alexandrov Ensemble, which is famous all over the world and has performed in China for many times. The venue is a simple four-storey building located in a small street far from the downtown area. Across the road stood the statue of the founder and conductor Alexandre Alexandrov, where a bouquet of flowers was laid, embodying the ardent memory of this outstanding artist. Victor, the master actor and singer, who has been in the group for 65 years, gave a detailed introduction of the history to the artists from China. He also deeply remembered his unforgettable experience of visiting China with the group. He said that both China and Russia have a very similar tradition, excellent and classic, and widely recognized works of art often have a strong and distinct national style, with a very deep connection with the national folk culture. He encouraged the Chinese artists who participated in the event to learn from the masses in their own country and truly absorb the seeds of traditional art circulating among them into their own creations.
