Abstract

In order to inherit and promote the inheritance and development of northern Anhui culture, this paper analyzes its three artistic characteristics, namely, modeling composition, pattern decoration and color from the perspective of farming civilization, and then finds that folk activities related to farming period are the ideological source of the motif and theme system of paper-cutting art in northern Anhui, thus creating its inclusive artistic value and simple Gu Zhuo expression. In the cultural ecology of the new era, the survival and development space of paper-cutting in northern Anhui is limited.
