　　葫芦雕刻传承人：机器无法复制和替代手工

　　Gourd Carving Inheritors: Machines Cannot Replicate or Replace Manual Craftsmanship

　　“葫芦”与“福禄”谐音，枝叶繁茂、多果的藤蔓与多籽的葫芦寓意“子孙万代，繁茂吉祥”。葫芦雕刻艺术是我国传统民间工艺，融书法、绘画、篆刻于一体。手艺人们需要根据葫芦的天然形态构思图案，精心设计每一道线条走向和每一抹色彩。高翔和郭文选两位非遗传承人在附近开了一间葫芦雕刻工作室，各类葫芦工艺品琳琅满目，皆出自他们的匠心巧手。

　　The word "hulu" (gourd) is a homophone for "fulu", a Chinese word symbolizing prosperity and fortune. The lush foliage, fruitful vines, and the many-seeded gourd imply "descendants thriving for generations, flourishing and auspicious." Gourd carving art is a traditional folk craft in China, integrating calligraphy, painting, and seal carving. Artisans need to conceive patterns based on the natural shape of the gourd, carefully designing every line and every shade of color. Gao Xiang and Guo Wenxuan, two inheritors of this intangible cultural heritage, have opened a gourd carving studio nearby, where a variety of gourd crafts are displayed, all crafted with their exquisite skills.

　　怀揣着对这门传统手工艺的热爱和执着，两位传承人们已走过20余年的葫芦雕刻之路，作品中既有简单几小时完成的小件，也有耗时数年的大作。在他们看来，热爱是从事葫芦雕刻的基础，而艺术和审美的积累则是创作出有味道、耐看作品的关键。他们认为，即使在技术日新月异的今天，机器也无法复制和替代手工工艺，因为手工雕刻的葫芦蕴含着创作者的情感和活力。在未来，他们希望葫芦雕刻能够有序传承、有序竞争、有序研习，让这门古老的艺术在现代社会中继续绽放光彩。

　　With a passion and dedication to this traditional craft, the two inheritors have traveled more than 20 years on the path of gourd carving, creating works that range from simple pieces completed in a few hours to large-scale creations that take years to finish. In their view, love is the foundation of engaging in gourd carving, and the accumulation of art and aesthetics is key to producing works that are flavorful and enduring. They believe that even with today's rapidly advancing technology, machines cannot replicate or replace manual craftsmanship, as these hand-carved gourds embody the emotions and vitality of the creator. In the future, they hope that gourd carving can be passed down in an orderly fashion, with healthy competition and systematic study, allowing this ancient art to continue to shine in modern society.

　　摄影师晓晨：用影像保护老城文化是使命

　　Photographer Xiao Chen: Preserving the Old Town's Culture through Images is a Mission

　　除了老手艺匠人，曲水亭街更少不了文艺青年的身影。摄影师晓晨在这条街上开了家名为“老城故事”的照相馆，用现代艺术定格旧时光。出于对老济南的深厚情结和对摄影的痴迷，他在这条街上给南来北往的客人拍摄了15年的怀旧感写真。

　　In addition to the veteran craftsmen, Qushuiting Street is also frequented by artistic youths. Photographer Xiaochen has opened a photo studio named "Old City Stories" on this street, capturing old times with modern art. Driven by his deep affection for old Jinan and his obsession with photography, he has been taking nostalgic portraits for guests on this street for 15 years.

　　热爱历史的店主晓晨相信：通过影像保护老城的文化是一种美好的使命，而济南的五大旅游元素——山、泉、湖、河、城，不仅是城市的名片，也是他摄影创作的灵感源泉。除了风景，晓晨还将剪纸、兔子王等传统手工艺品作为摄影道具，将老城的文化遗产与现代影像艺术有机结合。他认为，随着城市生活便利性的提升，济南亲民的泉水文化和城市独有的“烟火气”将吸引着世界各地的人们来到这里，感受和探索它的历史。

　　Xiao Chen, who is passionate about history and the owner of "Old City Stories" photo studio, believes that preserving the culture of the old town through images is a beautiful mission. Jinan's five major tourism elements—mountains, springs, lakes, rivers, and the city—serve not only as the city's calling cards but also as the inspiration for his photographic creations. Beyond the landscapes, Xiao Chen incorporates traditional handicrafts such as paper-cutting and rabbit kings as photographic props, organically combining the old town's cultural heritage with modern image art. He posits that with the enhancement of urban life conveniences, Jinan's approachable spring culture and the unique "hustle and bustle" of the city will attract people from around the world to experience and explore its history.

　　老街变网红：民俗文化与现代艺术的交融

　　Old Street Became Internet-famous: The Blending of Folk Culture and Modern Art

　　为了重拾商贾云集的繁盛，2013年，曲水亭街落成“民俗文化一条街”，经过多次整修改建，流水化、工业风的小店渐渐消失，取而代之的是各有特色的民俗手工仿古商亭，鲁绣、书法、古玩字画、老粗布、面塑、剪纸、串珠、漫画等十八般手艺悉数登场，老街因文化展示逐渐成为网红打卡点。

　　In order to regain its prosperity as a hub for merchants, in 2013, Qushuiting Streetwas established as a "Folk Culture Street." After several renovations and transformations, the streamlined, industrial-style shops gradually disappeared, replaced by distinctive folk handicraft antique stalls. Eighteen different crafts such as Shandong embroidery, calligraphy, antiques and paintings, coarse cloth, dough figurines, paper-cutting, bead stringing, and comics all made their appearance. The old street has gradually become an internet-famous spot due to its cultural displays.

　　流水不腐，户枢不蠹，古老非遗与现代艺术在这里交相辉映，绽放着独特的魅力。曲水亭街八面迎客，不仅将艺术的种子播撒在每一个角落，更让这份传承深深植根于人们的心中。无论是传统的手工艺品还是创新的艺术表达，都在这条街上找到了属于自己的舞台，让每一位游客都能感受到济南的文化底蕴和生活的无限活力。

　　Running water never goes stale, and a frequently used door hinge never gets worm-eaten. Ancient intangible cultural heritage and modern art shine together here, radiating a unique charm. Qushuiting Street welcomes guests from all directions, not only sowing the seeds of art in every corner but also deeply rooting theheritage in people's hearts. Both traditional handicrafts and innovative artistic expressions have found their own stage on this street, allowing every visitor to feel the cultural depth of Jinan and the boundless vitality of life.
