- This video was created for our 2021 Lunar New Year celebration and is now part of our Lunar New Year video archive. Celebrate Lunar New Year 2022 with the Walters Art Museum by enjoying the videos on this Lunar New Year playlist (bit.ly/3tulhEO) and the resources and activities available on our website (bit.ly/lnywalters).
Celebrate the Lunar New Year with artist Cheng Cao who will introduce you to Chinese paper-cutting, or jianzhi (剪紙), a folk art that originated in China around the 6th century CE. Learn how to craft a paper-cut ox. Materials needed: red paper, pencil, eraser, scissors. This video is made possible by the Towson Asian Art and Culture Center.
Cheng Cao is a Chinese artist working and living in Baltimore. Where some artists specialize in one genre of traditional Chinese painting, Cao has mastered many genres, including landscape, flower and bird, animals and portraiture. While concentrating on Chinese tradition, Cao always wants to combine modern elements in his art. Cao teaches Chinese painting at his studio in downtown Baltimore. Cao hopes his art lessons can lead the students to observe a deeper view of Chinese culture and art.
