The Teaching Reform and Practice of Chinese Gongbi Painting Based on Lingnan Local Culture

Abstract

This study examines the pedagogical reform of the "Chinese Gongbi Painting" curriculum rooted in Lingnan culture. It begins by analyzing the multifaceted nature of Lingnan culture, encompassing the distinctive characteristics and inclusive spirit of its Guangfu, Chaoshan, and Hakka cultural lineages. The paper highlights the dual significance of this reform: preserving Lingnan's cultural heritage through regional elements to enhance the artistic expression of Gongbi painting, while innovating teaching methodologies to improve cultural education outcomes. Practical solutions are proposed through six approaches: restructuring course content, innovating technical modules, designing folk-themed projects, integrating cultural venue resources, establishing dual-teacher collaboration platforms, and optimizing assessment mechanisms. These measures aim to achieve deep integration between Gongbi painting instruction and Lingnan culture, cultivating artists with both traditional painting expertise and regional cultural awareness.
