Find Happiness and Health in Photography

By Zhang Jiancheng

Yiwu, the biggest powerhouse of international trade in household goods in the center of Zhejiang Province, is more than a city of business. In recent years, the boom city has added cultural dimensions to its new landscape. It has parks and flourishing cultural institutions. Exhibitions are frequently held to display works by local painters and calligraphers side by side with gems and jewelry by private collectors.

In the late May 2012, Wu Weikang, an amateur photographer, held his five-day solo photography exhibition in Yiwu. Born in a village in a mountainous suburb of Yiwu in 1944, Wu graduated from a teachers college in Jinhua in 1967 and assigned to a teaching post in a primary school in remote Wuyi County. He taught 40 years there before he retired in 2006.

While teaching in Wuyi County, the schoolteacher found himself fascinated by scenic mountains, rivers, ancient villages and lovely children there. He was more than a teacher. He was also a dedicated photographer, inspired by the rural beauty of the agricultural county. After retirement, he has been able to devote more time to photographing the county. He has published eight collections of photographs he took to portray the colorful life there. These collections display prominent features of Wuyi: local scenery, spas, tea plantations as well as the new vista of the capital city of the county. His camera has captured most exciting and leisurely moments: quiet terraced fields in rainbow’s colors, bull fighting, dragon boat racing, national motor racing, and lotus flowers in sunshine.

Wu Weikang has traveled widely. He has visited more than 30 countries. Moreover, the 68-year-old photographer from a rural county has photographed 68 Chinese and foreign women models. As a figure photographer, Wu shows a special characteristic: his nude models pose in outdoor backgrounds and many of his models are rural women. Since 2002, he has held exhibitions of body photographs and published special collections. His nude photos have established him a national reputation as a photographer. He is a member of China Photographers Association, director of China Art Photographers Association, vice president of Wuyi County Photographers Association. His photos have won prizes at international competitions.

Though he has spent decades in remote mountains, Wu is always man of fashion. He handles digital photographs quite masterfully using computer software and he surfs the internet frequently. He operates a special website to promote his photographs and set up ties with fellow enthusiasts. Since 2010, he has been running a blog at sina.com, China’s biggest news website and portal.

Wu Weikang explains that taking photographs helps him enjoy life and improve health. It is a way of life for his golden years. Those who know him confirm that he is more open-minded and more philosophical about life now. Friends, relatives and fellow photographers say that he is growing younger and younger.

The exhibition held in Yiwu City was a retrospect on his photographs since he started blogging at sina in the second half of 2010. These photos also go into his latest collection “Surfing on the Sea of Art”. The book title is inscribed and carved by Ye Yiwei, a poet, calligrapher and seal engraver. The President of China Art Photographers Association Zhang Chungui and Editor-in-Chief of China Photography Website Chen Xiaojun wrote inscriptions for the collection. Guo Wanzhang, the executive president of China Art Photographers Association, wrote a preface for the collection. The collection features more than 700 photographs and 130 blog texts. The photographs and essays are divided into four sections: overseas tours, nude photography, photographic biography, life and work. □
