Shanghai, Tianzifang: hidden in the steel lattice time under forest

"Tianzifang" the name is actually the painter Huang Yongyu a few years ago to the old alley on the nickname. Is a homonym from the oldest artist Tian Zifang in ancient china. In ten years, Chen Yifei, Er Dongqiang and a number of artists have moved here so that once the street studio small factory, alley abandoned warehouse, common people Shikumen Lilong, wipe on the "SOHO" (SOHO) color, more artistic.

Busy butShanghaiMagic is reinforced, forest, a root to break through the clouds, vying with heaven in stature. However, above the clouds, what remains of the closely-packed, square street, like a tiny moss in the forest, in the old moon central to this city reserve nutrients, one day, they die, their trunks into soil. In Tianzifang, there will be a period of time the lattice steel forest, be careful collection.

The plan is always cannot catch up with change, the sudden change of weather in Shanghai, the morning sun hasn't put my cold air drying, the afternoon sky unexpectedly Piaoqi the snow, from theBeijingThe Lei Feng cap and handy. Zhoushan friends to call, it is too rough, not on the ship. Look to the east of the island, watch the sunrise - year plan, will be stranded. However, in the way of fun, often in unexpected unknown. Cuihua restaurant in a Dayton Jiefeng meal, let me enjoy the Hong Kong-style flavor. Chat after dinner, my host Shanghai students suggested: "the last snow in Beijing the day you not been to Nanluogu Lane? Not far from here in Tianzifang, can also go to take some pictures of the snow coffee." Since the "harmony", it must go.

����All of the encounter is again

Did not think it's across the street of Tianzifang. Follow the flow, Shanghai people's fine, delicate to brick. Through the path of the alleys, a billboard, a bar table, do the exotic full. But Tianzifang is still not faded it charming breath. Downstairs is the designer's exquisite coffee shops, upstairs with her just washed grid sheet. And I "Miss" a family shop, straight forward, not to find an oil-paper umbrella rainy inside, my purpose and many others, we are looking for Chen Yifei.

Chen Yifei chose Tianzifang, in the centre of the old alley, a mixed old plant in residential area. The painter's eye to see beauty, he is the value of this will disappear of Shikumen, breath and Shikumen vanishes together. It is proposed that the studio toSuzhouRiverside, leisurely quiet. Chen Yifei immediately objected: "there one night people are not scared, too scared to death, how to draw pictures!" Chen Yifei formed from the old Shanghai Shikumen building in the world found beauty, value was found in the old plant inclusion in dwellings in the. It is the heart of the city location, with the old city of Shanghai unique taste. The artist chose to stay.

Tianzifang is the choice of Chen Yifei. And Nanluogu Lane Royal,Gulangyu isletThe Western origin is different, Tianzifang is located in Luwan District, the edge zone in the history of the French concession. Here, have a quiet garden villa, rows of Shikumen Lilong, and the neighborhood factories, there are short and tall brick bungalows and mixed arowana shanty towns. There was on par with Zhang Daqian "goldfish" Mr. Wang Yachen apartment "hidden cloud floor", also have political influential man of Yang's home; underground party members Qin Hongjun here in his revolutionary activities, can land on cigarette advertisements also grew up in this beautiful woman. But the neighborhood factories should never appear in the houses, the streets here are short-lived, the value of their existence seems to be waiting for their "reincarnation". They found Chen Yifei.

A taste of Shanghai the man, finally met a taste of the alley. This choice is accidental and is again.

Unfortunately, I and Mr. Chen has been doomed to have no opportunity to meet each other. Even, even Chen Yifei studio site, but for some reason, temporarily closed. While the former places of residence in the facade, grey walls and black tiles, seems to be in the years had not changed. I like all of the tourists, a sigh.
