程十发艺术馆

Cheng Shifa Art Museum

华亭老街北侧,有一组明清风貌的建筑群,江南砖雕门楼,大气而古朴,右侧墙上有“程十发艺术馆”金色浮雕大字,左侧石刻程十发自画像,这里便是程十发艺术馆。

程十发原名程潼,是中国画坛著名的国画大师,曾任上海美术家协会副主席、上海中国画院院长等职。他1921年生于上海松江,6岁受同乡张祥河(松江人,曾任清代工部尚书)之孙张铸(定九)启蒙书画。少年时期对书画、古文情有独钟,就读于松江天主教会主办的光启中学(后并入松江二中)。1937年17岁时,因日军轰炸松江城被迫停学在家,一年后考入上海美术专科学校国画系。

程十发艺术馆占地面积约2540平方米,馆内设有生平展示区、真迹展品区、生活场景区、公共汇展区、艺术研讨区等。

馆区内有三幢明清时期的古宅,包括袁昶宅、瞿宅和王治山宅跨院,皆为松江区级文物保护单位,原址分为位于中山中路510号、580号和429号,后因华亭老街开发,为了更好地保护文物,将老宅迁建至此。

袁宅原为清代嘉庆侍郎赵永民宅,有现存松江最大的砖砌仪门。后来的主人袁昶是程十发孩童时期仰慕之人,程先生从小爱读袁昶的日记。袁昶为光绪年间进士,曾经反对慈禧攻打外国使馆。八国联军攻打北京时期,袁昶因上书而遭迫害。程十发先生曾评价说:“我家隔壁老房子主人袁昶是清代了不起的人物。”

瞿宅原为清代建筑,遗存清代的门厅、仪门与民国时期的二层住宅楼。主人瞿继康是程十发年轻时的好朋友,据说他俩曾于1946年在松江同台表演京剧《空城计》。

王治山宅,是程十发曾经生活过的地方,用他本人的话来说:“我的祖居在松江府娄县枫泾镇(现为金山区枫泾镇),我的故居在松江城里。王宅是我的故里,是我住过几十年的家。”1940年婚后,程十发居住在王宅走马楼上,并于1950年在此创作完成了第一部连环画《野猪林》。

程十发艺术馆东区南部的瞿宅为程十发生平展示区;东区北部为办公区,由一组新建仿明清建筑构成;西区北部为王宅跨院,常设馆藏书画展;西区南部为袁宅厅堂,不定期设特别展览。

On the north side of Old Huating Street stands a group of buildings in the Ming and Qing styles with a simple but grand Jiangnan tiled door, a golden relievo of the Cheng Shifa Art Museum on the right wall and a self-portrait of Cheng Shifa carved in stone on the left wall. This is the Cheng Shifa Art Museum.

Cheng Shifa, formerly known as Cheng Tong, is a famous Chinese painting master. In his time, he served both as the vice chairman of the Shanghai Artists Association and the dean of the Shanghai Chinese Painting Academy. Born in Songjiang in 1921, he showed his special preference for calligraphy, painting, and ancient Chinese literature in his childhood and studied at Guangqi Middle School. When he was 17 years old in 1937, he was forced to quit school due to the Japanese bombing and admitted to the Chinese Painting Department of Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts one year later.

The Cheng Shifa Art Museum covers about 2,540 square meters and contains a biography area, working studio, living scene area, public exhibition area, and discussion spaces.

There are several ancient houses of the Ming and Qing dynasties, including Yuan Chang's House, Zhai's House and a part of Wang Zhishan's House. They were originally located at No. 510, No. 580 and No. 429 Middle Zhongshan Road but moved here in order to balance the protection of cultural relics and the area's quickening development.

Yuan's House has the largest brick etiquette door in Songjiang. The owner of the house, Yuan Chang, was a Jinshi during the Guangxu era of the Qing dynasty, who were, at the time, opposed to the Empress Dowager Cixi attacking foreign embassies and was subsequently persecuted for submitting his statement when the Eight-Nation Alliance later attacked Beijing. Cheng Shifa admired him and recounted how he had since childhood rad his journals.

Zhai's House was built during the Qing Dynasty, with the entrance hall, etiquette door, and the two-story residential building built later, during the Republican era. The owner Zhai Jikang was a good friend of Cheng Shifa when he was young. It is said that they once performed the Beijing opera Kong Cheng Ji together in Songjiang in 1946.

Cheng once lived in Wang Zhishan's House. In 1940, Cheng lived in the Wang's House following his marriage and in 1950 he completed his first graphic novel Wild Boar Forest here.

The east part of the museum was formerly Zhai's House and is currently where Cheng Shifa's preserved living quarters are on display along with many of his works of art. The north part is the office area, which is composed of a new set of reconstructed buildings in the style of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The Yuan's House in the west is tall and spacious, often holding painting and calligraphy exhibitions. In the west of the museum is the side courtyard of Wang's House.
