银川韩美林艺术馆简介

20世纪80年代，著名艺术家韩美林先生第一次踏足具有“塞上江南”美称的宁夏银川，就被古老神秘的贺兰山岩画深深打动。此后，韩美林先生先后七次来到这里，观摩岩画艺术，汲取创作灵感，艺术创作更进一步。贺兰山岩画也因此被韩美林先生视为自己艺术创作的重要转折。

2010年6月，怀着对贺兰山岩画的深厚感情与回报之心，韩美林先生决定将几十年来创作的1000件艺术精品捐赠给银川市人民政府。为了收藏、陈列、研究这些珍贵的艺术作品，银川市人民政府决议在银川市贺兰山岩画遗址公园内兴建“银川韩美林艺术馆”，以期通过韩美林先生用当代艺术形式对贺兰山岩画的解读诠释，令古老的岩画文化更为直观、广泛地走入民间，开辟一条全新的古岩画与新时尚的结合之路。

2015年9月26日，银川韩美林艺术馆隆重开幕，贺兰山东麓文化旅游黄金带上又新添了一颗“耀眼的明珠”。这是继杭州、北京之后，在国内建立的第三座以陈列展示韩美林先生个人作品为主的艺术馆。华夏的天空下，在中国南、北、西部的土地上，分别矗立了三座韩美林艺术馆。这三座展馆面积之大，展出作品之多，涉及艺术门类之广，堪称当代中外艺术家中的“世界之最”。

银川韩美林艺术馆位于贺兰山岩画遗址公园文化艺术展示区，占地总面积15868平方米，建筑总面积6694平方米，主要包括展厅、互动区、创作区以及游客服务区，集参观、教学、展览、休闲等多功能于一体。全馆现有“五厅二室一廊一谷”，其中包括序厅，1、2、3、4号厅、手稿廊以及太阳峡谷，展品共1000余件，集中展示了韩美林先生以岩画为题材的绘画、书法、雕塑、陶瓷、染织等各个门类的艺术精品。

银川韩美林艺术馆建筑设计灵感源于对贺兰山苍茫雄壮的感动，以及对当地居民因地制宜建造房屋方式的传承。艺术馆建筑的外形和构造完全与贺兰山融为一体，整体嵌入场地，空间错落有致。规矩方正的主展厅与更开放、空间更丰富的互动展区有机结合，并在多元化空间中引入日光与山景，真正做到了空间功能与空间形态的完美结合。艺术馆外墙面装饰毛石，均就地取材自贺兰山区域，是目前银川市最高的外装毛石砌筑建筑，同时也表现了现代艺术与大自然的对话。

贺兰山下，苍穹之间，银川韩美林艺术馆与古老的贺兰山岩画交相辉映，共叙恢宏篇章。在这里，五湖四海的游客及广大艺术爱好者，可以尽情欣赏远古人类文明与当代智慧碰撞迸发出的激情火花，感受五千年前的历史、艺术、自然与现代精神的交融与对话。

About the Yinchuan Han Meilin Art Museum

In the 1980s, renowned artist Mr. Han Meilin visited Yinchuan in Ningxia for the first time, a place famed as the "Frontier Land of Abundance". He was enormously moved by the ancient mystery of the rock paintings in the Helan Mountains. After this, Mr. Han Meilin made seven visits to the location, observing and learning about the rock painting art and gaining inspiration to further improve his artistic creations. The rock paintings in the Helan Mountains have thus been viewed by Mr. Han Meilin as an important turning point for his artistic work.

In June 2010, with deep felt sentiments and intentions of gratitude, Mr. Han Meilin decided to donate 1,000 of his exquisite artworks completed over decades to the Yinchuan Municipal People's Government. To store, display, and research these treasured works of art, the local municipal government decided to establish the Yinchuan Han Meilin Art Museum within the Helan Mountain Rock Art Heritage Park. The aim has been to provide explanation and interpretation of the Helan Mountain Rock Paintings through the contemporary artistic forms of Mr. Han Meilin, making the ancient rock art more intuitive and more accessible to the public. The approach has opened up an all-new integrated path between ancient rock paintings and new fashion.

On September 26, 2015, the Yinchuan Han Meilin Art Museum was officially opened, and another very worthy travel destination was added to the popular tourist belt around the Eastern Foot of the Helan Mountains. This is the third museum opened in China focused on Mr. Han Meilin following the ones in Hangzhou and Beijing. The size, number of exhibit pieces, and range of artistry of these three museums, located respectively in China's north, south, and west, can truly be described as unprecedented both in China and abroad.

The Yinchuan Han Meilin Art Museum is located within the culture and art exhibition area of the Helan Mountain Rock Art Heritage Park and covers an area of 15,868 square meters. With a floor area of 6,694 square meters, the museum primarily includes the exhibition, interaction, creativity and tourist services sections, offering multifunctional services for touring, learning, exhibiting, and leisure. The museum features an entry hall, 4 galleries, the Sunshine Gorge, and a design sketch corridor, displaying over 1,000 items. A focus of the exhibits are the paintings, calligraphy, sculptures, ceramics, and dyed textiles in various artistic presentations of Mr. Han Meilin themed around rock paintings.

The museum's building design is inspired by the enormity of the Helan Mountains, as well as the building heritage of local residents suited to local conditions. The art museum's exterior appearance and construction is entirely integrated with the Helan Mountains, meticulously embedding sites and spaces as a conjoined whole. The properly square main hall and more open and spacious interaction area are organically integrated. By introducing sunlight and mountain vistas into the pluralistic space, a truly perfect combination has been attained between spatial function and form. The exterior of the art museum is decorated with ashlar, all of which is sourced from the Helan Mountains region. It is currently Yinchuan's highest building with exterior of ashlar and also intimates a kind of dialogue between modern art and nature.

Below the Helan Mountains, the Yinchuan Han Meilin Art Museum brilliantly shines alongside the rock paintings of the Helan Mountains, depicting an epic tale spanning the reaches of time. Here, tourists and art enthusiasts from around the world can admire the passionate sparks arising from the clash between ancient culture and modern wisdom, experiencing a history of 5,000 years and a dialogue between nature and the modern spirit
