Abstract

The title of this paper is "To Research the Ways to Conserve and Popularize of the Guangxi Wenchang in Guilin, China". This is a qualitative investigation with the objective of identifying suitable methods for the conservation and preservation of the rich culture of Guangxi Wenchang, a Chinese performing art. The researchers conducted documentary analysis and field research to assess challenges facing the preservation of this valuable intangible cultural heritage and consider ways forward for its conservation. Results show that the biggest obstacles to sustainable inheritance are a lack of young inheritors and an alteration to the traditional social conditions that saw its emergence and growth. The paper argues that these conditions must be reconstructed through cooperation between the government and local stakeholders to ensure the art form continues for years to come.
