在五亩冲矿区 中法携手“唤醒”工业记忆

On November 29, at the Wumuchong International Art Park in Meitanba Town, Ningxiang, a restoration team from France's École Supérieure d'Art d'Avignon joined hands with Chinese counterparts to launch the protection and restoration of coal mining industrial heritage sites. Rooted in the industrial remains of Meitanba Town—once hailed as the "Coal Capital of Central Hunan"—the park initiated construction in 2016 with the goal of establishing a world-class industrial heritage art industry base. To date, it has forged partnerships with over 10 international art institutions and universities across more than 10 countries, having hosted multiple art residency programs.

11月29日，宁乡煤炭坝五亩冲国际艺术园区内，法国阿维尼翁高等艺术学院修复团队与中方团队携手开展煤矿工业遗址保护修复工作。该园区源于曾为“湘中煤都”的煤炭坝镇工业遗存，2016年启动建设，旨在打造国际级工业遗址艺术产业基地，目前已与10余个国家的国际艺术机构院校建立合作，累计举办多期艺术驻留活动。

The restoration project balances ecological conservation with heritage activation while delving deep into the mining area's humanistic memories and integrating emotional value. This cross-border collaboration has yielded distinctive outcomes such as the "Meitanba Black" pigment and the "Meitanba Waterwheel." According to the plan, the restored park will feature core facilities including an art museum and an academy. In the future, it is expected to attract numerous artists for long-term creations and hundreds of international university students for residency programs annually.

此次修复兼顾生态保护与遗产活化，同时深挖矿区人文记忆，融入情感价值；跨国合作已产出“煤炭坝黑”颜料、“煤炭坝水车”等特色成果。按照规划，修复后园区将建成美术馆、学院等核心载体，未来预计每年吸引多位艺术家长期创作及数百名国际高校学生驻留学习。
