The Emerging Woodcut Movement was a youth art creation movement actively advocated by Mr. Lu Xun in Shanghai in the 1930s, and was an important component of the left-wing literary and artistic movement. The emerging woodcut youth who grew up under the guidance and influence of Mr. Lu Xun were also pioneers who devoted themselves to the anti Japanese literary and artistic movement. The speaker will focus on the basic achievements of published collections, memoirs, communications, collections, and data organization, and outline the basic contours of Mr. Lu Xun and the emerging woodcut movement from multiple aspects, highlighting his role as the "mentor" of the emerging woodcut movement.
