王者归来——中国古代青铜器巡礼

青铜，古朴、凝重、雄浑、典雅，闪耀着金属质地的冷峻，却蕴含着人文的温度。

中国的青铜，兴于王政，盛于三代；被视为王者之器，表现着庙堂、王权、秩序的神秘、庄严和威仪。先民以瑰丽的想象熔焠合金，铸以模范，倾注虔诚的信仰，缀以诡谲繁复之纹饰，铭以宗庙社稷之大事。尤其商周时代，青铜器承载着区分亲疏尊卑、定立礼制法度的功用。即便进入铁器时代之后，青铜器及其代表的宗法、礼乐文化也依然在中国社会生活中展现着意志与威严，且沉淀为中国人血液之中的文化基因。这是中国青铜本质上有别于西方青铜之处，也是中国人在其后的数千年中不断研习发展制铜技艺、稽古开新的原因所在。

本次展览展出的280件（套）青铜器珍品，既有中国国家博物馆众多宝藏，也有湖南省博物馆、四川广汉三星堆博物馆等典藏青铜瑰宝，它们是古代物质文化和精神文化的载体；从中我们可以窥见商周青铜器的庄重典雅，以及汉至明清青铜器的传承和变化。灼灼铜华，代代相传；青铜不朽，王者归来。在时光长河中，青铜器由厚重而轻巧，从庙堂走入民间，唤醒华夏儿女骨子里的礼乐文化记忆。而此在的我们，可期藉此展与中国传统文化的本真再度相逢。

Red Spirit Flourished in the Land of Heroes: Exhibition of Revolutionary Cultural Relics collected in the Hunan Museum

Hunan Province boasts its abundance of red revolutionary cultural resources, so much so that it seems to be a revolutionary history museum without walls. In September 2020, general secretary Xi Jinping inspected Hunan and praised the province, saying that "one can find revolutionary site in nearly every 10 steps", "soaked in the blood of the Red Army, the soil witnessed the revolutionary martyrs’ heroic sacrifice". The year of 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. To celebrate the centenary of the founding of the CPC, the Hunan Museum launches the original exhibition, namely Red Spirit Flourished in the Land of Heroes: Special Exhibition of Revolutionary Cultural Relics collected in the Hunan Museum. This exhibition follows the history of the revolution of the CPC in Hunan. To educate, impress, and inspire more people, we dig into stories behind the cultural objects to better interpret the cultural connotation and the value of the times embodied in the cultural relics while showcasing the revolutionary spirit and noble characters of people with lofty ideals in four units, namely "The Tide Riders Surf the Currents", "A Million Workers and Peasants Rise Up", "All Around Heroes Home-bound in the Evening Mist" and "Bitter Sacrifice Strengthens Bold Resolve".

王门艺事——王闿运和他的弟子们

王闿运（1833-1916），字壬秋，又字壬父，号湘绮，湖南湘潭人。咸丰三年举人，曾入肃顺、曾国藩等幕府，后主讲成都尊经书院，历任长沙思贤讲舍、衡州船山书院山长，主办南昌高等学堂，后授徒于湘绮楼中。清时授翰林院检讨，加侍讲衔。民初任清史馆馆长，兼任参议院参政。其在经学、文学、史学、教育、书法等多个领域卓有建树，著有《湘绮楼诗集、文集、日记》等。

王闿运乃一代名士，湘楚大儒。一生交游遍天下，传道授业，门生满天下，世称为泰斗，其力倡通经致用，培育经世英才。其中以名弟子杨度、杨庄、杨钧、夏寿田、齐白石、八指头陀、宋育仁、杨锐、廖平、胡元仪、易顺鼎、刘揆一、马宗霍等卓有成就。齐白石就曾题诗感怀恩师：“忆旧难逢话旧人，阿吾不复梦王门”。王门许多弟子在他生前身后，一直纵横捭阖于中国近现代的历史大舞台，近代湖湘人才辈出和巴蜀学术的复兴，与王闿运精心培养了大批人才是分不开的。

湖南省博物馆收藏明清以来的湖湘地方名人信札、书画等作品十分丰富，我们特从馆藏王闿运和他弟子们的相关作品中精心挑选了百余件（套）作为展品，其中有书画、印章、日记、手稿、信札等作品，这些墨迹大多是首次展出，十分稀少，弥足珍贵，不仅具有重要的文史价值，而且有着文人艺术的审美价值，不啻为一场学术交流和艺术欣赏的盛宴。我们希望通过本次展览，穿越时光隧道，从王门艺事中，窥知王闿运和他弟子们以天下为己任、经世致用的功业，梳理出晚清、民国时期湖湘地区独特的文化传承体系，进而推动学界、艺术界等对湖湘文化的研究。
