Abstract:As for the topic about stone stacking and rockery making, today's urban public environments are more challenging than Chinese traditional gardens. The surrounding environments of the sites are not only urban high-rise buildings, but also panoramic wide lands of new area, which the scale and volume are often several times that of traditional gardens. At the same time, it is also facing the progress of modern engineering technology, such as the application of large-scale artificial waterfall, which makes it easier for stone stacking and rockery making to achieve the effect of real mountains and forests, etc. All these mentioned above put forward new requirements for the concepts and skills of stone stacking and rockery making, and make it face the response of contemporary reality and the mission of inheritance and development. Starting with the scale analysis of the large yellow-stone rockery in Shanghai Flower Port and adopting means of remote view and near travel, this paper analyzes the causes of the real mountains and forests state of “intercepting the river and valley” obtained by the contemporary craftsman FANG Hui under the guidance of pursuing the “three-dimensional” goal of height, depth and thickness. Through field perception and mapping, the author tries to analyze the thinking and pursuit of realm of the literati who practiced mountain stacking around the “three dimensions” orientation, at the same time, to learn and analyze his skills of comparing stones, collages and mountain modelling. This paper is also a confirmation of FANG’s theory and skills about stone stacking and rockery making. It is expected that the rockery making skill, which integrates Chinese traditional art, can be inherited and carried forward, so as to inspire and promote contemporary gardening.
