What’s On丨黄河与尼罗河的文明对话:镜头架起中非民心相通之桥

··

  2025国际产教研融合发展对接会在济南举办,在平行活动“黄河与尼罗河的文明对话”摄影展现场,黄河浪花与尼罗河波纹正在这里完成一场跨越时空的握手。这两条滋养了东方与非洲的母亲河,虽然相隔万里从未交汇,但今天,来自中非摄影师的镜头魔法让她们在光影中跳起了双人舞。

  双河交响:文明互鉴的视觉诗篇

  在国际摄影艺术联合会济南展览中心(山东工艺美术学院校区内)举办的《黄河与尼罗河的文明对话:多元世界·融通发展--中非大地摄影艺术作品展》以黄河与尼罗河这两条分别代表中国和非洲的母亲河为背景,通过多维度、多视角的摄影作品,展现了中国与非洲大地上这两条河流相关地区的历史文化、地理风貌和民俗风情。在展览现场,中国摄影师镜头下的尼罗河晨曦与非洲摄影家取景框里的黄河落日交相辉映。策展人曾毅指着展墙上并置的组图介绍道,不同的文化基因孕育出独特的视觉思维,这种“第三视角”的创作方式能产生奇妙的化学反应。

  黄河是中国的母亲河,是中华文明的发源地和中华民族的摇篮,从发源地自西向东流经九个省区;尼罗河是埃及的母亲河,是世界上最长的河流,从非洲南部向北流经九个国家。通过镜头定格黄河与尼罗河的文明对话,以影像艺术架设中非友谊之桥,向世界讲述真实、立体、全面的中国故事,这正是策展人曾毅教授匠心独运的策展初衷。

  镜头解码:文化基因的显影剂

  “这张埃及儿童向中国摄影师挥手的作品,是文化差异与人性共鸣的绝佳注脚。”曾毅展示其作品《后排座》时回忆道,当时自己正乘坐一辆中巴在车流中穿行,发现前方轿车车厢内坐着三个孩童,在与中国摄影师目光相遇的刹那,孩子们不仅没有躲避镜头,反而以埃及人特有的热情给予回应,绽开了朝阳般灿烂的笑容,车窗外流动的市井画卷似乎也被点亮,于是他迅速按下快门定格住这一鲜活的场景。

  展览中一幅名为《渴望》的非洲儿童特写也引发广泛共鸣。画面中男孩正手握铅笔,认真地写字,渴望知识、渴望学习的眼神与摄影家解海龙所拍摄的《大眼睛》形成跨越时空的呼应。“教育是能改变命运的,也能改变一个国家。”曾毅表示,希望能有更多的机会能够为非洲人民生活的改善、教育的发展尽到微薄之力。

  产教融合:构建影像教育新生态

  国际产教研融合发展是新时代的潮流,也是全球发展的特征与趋势。作为连接学术与产业的纽带,“黄河与尼罗河文明对话”摄影展展现了影像艺术在产教研融合中的独特价值。策展人曾毅是山东工艺美术学院资深教授、美术馆馆长,据他所说,山东工艺美术学院通过济南国际摄影双年展这一持续近20年的实践平台,探索出了一条切实可行的教育创新路径。“美术馆作为学校的一个第二课堂,让更多的学生能够有机会在校园内接触到更多的摄影师和摄影师的作品;双年展为学校、为教学搭建了一个重要平台,让更多的学生参与进来。”

  2024年10月,国际摄影艺术联合会中国(济南)办事处在济南揭牌成立,这是国际摄影艺术联合会在全球设立的唯一一个办事处,为促进中国摄影与国际接轨,推动中国摄影走向世界,加强中国摄影的国际交流与合作发挥积极作用。作为联合国教科文组织下属的权威机构,FIAP中国办事处自成立以来,始终探索民间影像外交的新路径,这种“以镜为媒“的民间交流也正在形成规模效应。曾毅教授表示,国外的摄影师到中国拍摄,或者中国的摄影师到国外去举办展览进行交流活动都是一种互相沟通和传播的方式,摄影师们实地感受后创作的作品在其母国媒体或社交网络良性传播,这种“他者视角”往往能打破固有认知框架。

  黄河与尼罗河的文明对话以镜头为纽带,搭建起一座跨越地理与文化的中非民心相通之桥。在构建人类命运共同体的征程中,这种以影像为载体的文明互鉴,正书写着跨文化传播的崭新范本。

  On March 20th, the 2025 International Forum on Industry–Education–Research Integrated Development was held in Jinan. At the parallel event,the stunning “Civilization Dialogue Between the Yellow River and the Nile“ photography exhibition, the ripples of China's Yellow River are dancing with the waves of Africa's Nile through these captivating images. Although these two mother rivers have never met physically, today they're waltzing across time and space through the lens magic of Chinese and African photographers.

  Symphony of Two Rivers: A Visual Ode to Cultural Exchange

  At the Jinan Exhibition Center of the Fédération Internationale de l'Art Photographique (located within the Shandong University of Art & Design), the exhibition “CivilizationDialogue between The Yellow River andthe Nile - Exhibition of Photography Art Works of China and Africa“ showcases the rich histories, landscapes, and cultures along these two iconic rivers. Through a diverse array of photographs, the exhibition captures the essence of the regions influenced by the China’s Yellow River and the Africa’s Nile. On display, the morning light on the Nile as seen through Chinese lenses contrasts beautifully with the sunset over the Yellow River captured by African photographers. Curator Zeng Yi highlights the unique visual perspectives born from distinct cultural backgrounds, creating a fascinating chemical reaction through this “third perspective“ approach.

  The Yellow River, China's cradle of civilization, flows eastward through nine provinces and regions, while the Nile, Egypt's lifeline and the world's longest river, runs north through nine African countries. This exhibition, through the lens of photography, not only captures the dialogue between these two civilizations but also builds a bridge of friendship between China and Africa, narrating a comprehensive and authentic Chinese story to the world. This vision is the heart of Professor Zeng Yi's curatorial masterpiece.

  Lens Decoded: The Developer of Cultural Genes

  “This photo of Egyptian children waving at a Chinese photographer perfectly captures the blend of cultural differences and human connection,“ Zeng Yi reminisced while presenting his work “Backseat“. He recalled navigating through traffic in a minibus when he noticed three children in a car ahead. Upon meeting the photographer's gaze, instead of shying away, the children responded with the characteristic warmth of Egyptians, their smiles as radiant as the morning sun, illuminating the bustling street scene outside. Zeng quickly captured this vibrant moment.

  Another impactful piece in the exhibition, titled “Aspiration,“ features a close-up of an African child intently writing with a pencil. The boy's eager eyes, filled with a thirst for knowledge and learning, echo the famous “Big Eyes“ photograph by Xie Hailong, bridging time and space. “Education can change destinies and transform a nation,“ Zeng expressed, hoping for more opportunities to contribute to the improvement of life and education in Africa.

  Integration of Industry and Education: Building a New Ecosystem for Visual Arts Education

  The fusion of international industry, education, and research is a defining trend of the new era. As a bridge between academia and industry, the “Dialogue of Civilizations: The Yellow River Meets the Nile“ photography exhibition highlights the unique role of visual arts in this integration. Curator Zeng Yi, a senior professor and art museum director at Shandong University of Art & Design, explains that the university has pioneered an innovative educational path through the Jinan International Photography Biennale, a platform nurtured over nearly two decades. “The art museum serves as a second classroom, allowing students to engage with photographers and their works on campus. The Biennale provides a vital platform for teaching and learning, encouraging active student participation.“

  In October 2024, Fédération Internationale de l'Art Photographique (FIAP) established its China (Jinan) Office, the only such global branch, to promote Chinese photography on the international stage and foster cross-cultural exchanges. As an authoritative body under UNESCO, the FIAP China Office has been exploring new avenues for grassroots visual diplomacy, creating a ripple effect through lens-mediated exchanges. Professor Zeng Yi notes, “Whether foreign photographers capturing China or Chinese photographers exhibiting abroad, these interactions foster mutual understanding. Works created from firsthand experiences, shared through media and social networks, often challenge preconceived notions through the 'outsider's perspective.'“

  The dialogue between the Yellow River and the Nile, connected through the lens, builds a bridge of mutual understanding across geography and culture. In the journey toward a shared human destiny, this visual exchange of civilizations is crafting a new paradigm for cross-cultural communication.
