問題詳情:
In Shanghai, the historic Bund(外灘)catches much attention---many former banks and trading houses along the Huangpu River, built a century ago in different architectural styles, are monuments to the grandeur(輝煌)of that era. It can also suffocating(令人窒息的)on weekends, with tourists struggling for taking photos.
For local residents, another part of the riverfront now known as the West Bund has become a far more appealing place to spend the weekend. Here, a once industrial area known for aircraft manufacturing(製造)has been transformed into a green corridor where local residents come to ride bikes or enjoy picnics on the grassy riverbank.
In the last two years, museums and galleries have also started popping up as part of the city’s plan to turn the West Bund into a world-class art and culture center.
On one end of the waterfront area, two huge industrial buildings have been transformed into the West Bund Art Center, site of a new annual art exhibition, and the Yuz Museum, focusing on contemporary works. On the other end is another institution exhibiting a mix of classical antiquities(古董)and modern Chinese art, called the Long Museum West Bund.
It’s an ambitious effort. Under a national five-year plan to promote culture by building more museums, Shanghai has set out to transform itself from a commercial center into a cultural one.
To achieve this, the city has built may museum buildings, including the Shanghai Natural History Museum, designed by the American architects, and the Power Station of Art, a Tate Modern-inspired art museum in a former power plant that hosted a show of the Chinese artist Cai Guoqiang’s drawings.
Across the river, two former exhibition halls from the 2010 World Expo have also been transformed into museums---the oversize glossy-red former China Exhibition Hall is the new home of the China Art Museum.
