The Path for Cultivating Lacquer Art Talents in Universities Under the Influence of Regional Culture—Taking the Inheritance of Lacquer Art Elements from Chu Culture as an Example
As a non-material cultural heritage treasure embodying regional spirit, Chu culture lacquer art offers rich materials for cultivating lacquer art talents in universities with its unique patterns, colors, and craftsmanship. Leveraging the abundant Chu lacquer artifacts in Hubei and the market demand for Chu culture IP, some universities have initiated preliminary teaching explorations. However, challenges remain, including insufficient cultural penetration in courses, a lack of cultural literacy among faculty, practices detached from cultural contexts, and weak innovation and transformation capabilities. To address these issues, it is necessary to develop a systematic curriculum module of “Chu” Culture + Lacquer Art”, build a composite faculty team combining “techniques + culture”, establish an immersive practice system integrating “campus + society”, and create a collaborative mechanism for “talent cultivation + cultural revitalization”. This approach aims to transition from skill-based instruction to culture-based education, fostering versatile talents with both cultural literacy and innovative capabilities, thereby promoting the contemporary inheritance and industrial revitalization of Chu lacquer art.
