In today’s fast-paced digital world, true art still speaks from the heart. Renowned animation director and arts teacher Li Wenyu, from Sichuan University's College of Arts, reminds us that authentic creation comes from a deep engagement with life. Inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's words, "For the artist who is not conscious of the meaning of life is unlikely to be capable of making any coherent statement in the language of his own art," Li believes every artist should first learn to be a poet of life.
His masterful direction of the Berlinale-selected animated film "Ran Bi Wa" shows that impactful art isn’t just about technique—it’s built on personal experience and passion. This insight resonates with anyone who craves creativity and meaningful expression in a world where trends fade as quickly as they arrive. 🤩
PAGE X, a unique platform that invites guests from diverse fields to share interpretations from their favorite books, further champions the idea that art and life are inseparable. Whether you’re a student, an aspiring entrepreneur, or simply a lover of culture, Li Wenyu's message is a call to live and create authentically every day.
