DECEMBER 2, 2014<\/p>\n

In a project that echoes the Cultural Revolution, China\u2019s top film and television industry regulator has announced a new program to send artists to grass-roots communities to learn from the masses and form a \u201ccorrect view on art.\u201d<\/p>\n

The announcement on Monday came less than two months after President Xi Jinping delivered a major speech on the arts, widely called one of the most important statements on art and literature by a Chinese leader since the Yan\u2019an Talks in 1942 by Mao Zedong.<\/p>\n

In his October speech, Mr. Xi implored artists not to be \u201cslaves\u201d of the market or to \u201close themselves in the tide of market economy or go astray while answering the question of whom to serve.\u201d Since then, many in China\u2019s creative industries have been waiting to see how Mr. Xi\u2019s ideas would be implemented.<\/p>\n

The announcement by the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television appears to be an attempt to rehabilitate artists who in Mr. Xi\u2019s view have gone \u201castray.\u201d One part of the program, the announcement said, will embed film and television production teams in rural areas for at least 30 days to experience local life.<\/p>\n

With this program, artists can \u201cunearth new subjects, find their market and promote fine works within the passionate lives of the people,\u201d the announcement said.<\/p>\n

In a separate provision, the scriptwriters, directors, actors and others working on 10 designated films and television shows will also be sent to live among local communities, the announcement said. And every year, 100 staff members from central and local arts programs will travel to border and ethnic minority regions, as well as areas that are significant to China\u2019s revolutionary past.<\/p>\n
