在欧亚大陆这条东西轴线上诞生的丝绸之路就像一条纽带把东方文明与西方文明连接在一起。而新疆（西域）恰恰处于欧亚大陆这条东西轴线的中心地带，是华夏、印度、两河、埃及以及古希腊文明的交汇之地。因此形成了新疆文化多元化特征。本文通过对新疆多元文化形成的原因进行剖析，即宗教汇集、教徒广泛；民族众多、语言丰富；文化多元、融汇东西等三大因素。进而对在这些多元文化影响下的新疆当地维吾尔族民间手工艺术的形成与地域特色，作了较深入的探讨与分析。得出了新疆维吾尔族民间手工艺术正是在吸收、借鉴、融合了东西方文化艺术的基础上，又在本民族的历史文化、宗教信仰和审美观念的支配下，所呈现的新疆维吾尔民族独具特色的民间手工艺术。%The Silk Road on the Eurasian continent is a link that connects East and West. Xinjiang (the Western Regions), which is located in the centre of this East-West axis, is an intersection of Chinese, Indian, Mesopotamian, Egyptian and ancient Greek civilizations and therefore is known for its cultural diversity. The current author analyzes the factors related to the formation of cultural diversity in Xinjiang, that is, convergence of religions, large population of believers, ethnic and linguistic diversity, multi-culture and East-West integration. Such cultural diversity has influenced local Uygur handicraft, which is under in-depth discussion in this paper. It is concluded that the unique Xinjiang Uygur folk handicraft is the result of interaction of East and West cultures and arts and is influenced by ethnic history, religious beliefs and aesthetic ideas.
