Abstract

This article focuses on the development paths of artistic rural construction in the Greater Bay Area, aiming to explore how to promote rural revitalization and enhance regional cultural soft power through artistic intervention. As one of the most economically developed and most open regions in China, the Greater Bay Area has unique advantages in promoting art village construction. The rich cultural resources, strong economic foundation, diversified talent reserve and open international environment of the Greater Bay Area provide a good foundation for the construction of art countryside. However, the unbalanced development within the Greater Bay Area and the obvious gap between urban and rural areas have also brought challenges to the construction of art countryside. Therefore, this research sorts out its cultivation path, aiming to give full play to the advantages of the Greater Bay Area, overcome the practical difficulties, and promote the healthy and sustainable development of art rural construction. In the future, the construction of art countryside in the Greater Bay Area should pay attention to policy coordination, resource integration, talent exchange, innovation-driven development to build an art village development model with Greater Bay Area characteristics.
