Craft Ceramics

In section 103 Session of China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) on, with rich cultural heritage and local features of the Germany-based fine ceramics has attracted the eye and from businessmen, white as white as snow, Caine dense thin, red porcelain red rich and gaudy , pure and honest and full, almost every piece of work are Xingshenjianbei, mouthwatering photo is breathtaking, precious ceramic craft boutique exudes a growing temptation.

Improvement of living standards and aesthetic taste of the changes in people's attitudes toward technology showed great interest in pottery, craft pottery gradually become market "new favorite," the problems the market can not be neglected.

Dehua porcelain in the market that in recent years, with the domestic and international art market, gradually warming up, discerning collectors and investors will turn their attention to contemporary ceramic artists works of art. Because they know that a good work of art is subject to the production of multi-channel processes can be baked and a superior work of art, but also the skills to years of experience and artistic accomplishment is possible to complete. Value of Contemporary Ceramic Art collectors have also been gradually recognized, a number of the works of masters even more heavily bought by collectors.

Red-Cultural Development Co., Ltd Fujian rich artistic director Xu Shaodong, said that with the improvement of people's living standard, social and daily life from the initial demand, the transition to the collection needs of the times. From the survival of the status request to request, from the economy requires to cultural requirements, technology ceramics market, gradually warming up, many ceramic artists from the embarrassment of the initial creation, creative levels are getting higher and higher, even ceramics for daily use are becoming increasingly technology-oriented, technology ceramics market potential is gradually being dug up.

Enhance the operation of the market

"Their favorite works do not necessarily easy to sell, we can only go the market route." Dehua Ceramic young artist Yan Song Liu has been committed to the traditional porcelain carving of innovation, and strive to the modernization of the traditional porcelain carving. He said he set foot on the beginning of porcelain art road alone personal preferences, creating a very modern character since that works, resulting in the market has dropped his ankle. In the personal creative struggle with the contradiction between market choice, the final selection of personal ideas and market integration.

Flying Arts porcelain Zheng PENG Xiong also said that in the market demand, according to the idea of creating their own works less and less, the market also made the contradiction between art and some of his regrets. Reporters interviewed found that, in fact, such a situation is not only one or two troubled divisions ceramics, ceramic industry, created to cater for market-oriented, dealers concerned about the low-end consumer goods, high-end art sales channels and poor, the basic walking collection routes, the final market selection is the last word. Of course, this is also with the current appreciation of the level of the public as a whole, but the market is still the contradiction between art and ceramic art master difficult to resolve troubles.

On the other hand, "do not sell" is also a lot of ceramic masters weaknesses. China Arts and Crafts master LIU Yuan-Long will be a work of art to be sold to another 100,000 yuan price, but buyers soon to 500,000 yuan in Hong Kong, sold at high prices, which also made a lot of people to re-examine the process ceramics markets. Experts believe that this reflects the art of pottery making by self-awareness of the market is not strong on the other hand also shows that Taiwan does not have a smooth sales channels, can provide a suitable market for ceramic art mode of operation.

The establishment of formal channels, art market, beyond the mode of operation, for example today's ceramic artists, and creativity are equally important.

Constraints to break the bottleneck

Craft ceramic pottery carries cultural heritage in China for thousands of years, but also laying the ground for Chinese ceramics in the international position in the international and domestic reputation, with the construction, decoration, collection development of the industries, technology class ceramic broad development prospects. However, reporters found that a single talent structure, and cultural heritage such as the protection and still become a bottleneck restricting their development.

In a ceramic for local pillar industries of Germany, ceramic industry employees increased dramatically, with traditional porcelain carving for 50 years in the state of the last century are only a few dozen factory apprentice, and now there are more than 1,000 people engaged in arts and porcelain production alone, the private sector there are more than 200 Ceramics Research Institute. Yet even so, the lack of qualified personnel is also become the biggest challenge facing the industry, civil society, "the division with believers, the parent tape," the traditional teaching methods have also been hit. Faced with a number of traditional craft ceramic A lack of family situation, the younger generation running out of patience, it seems too strong ceramics have not shown interest. Some ceramic culture, the researchers held that the current technology in Germany, due to the pursuit of market efficiency, industrial machinery, to replace the hand-made, resulting in the degradation of the loss of traditional skills. At the same time, the entire ceramics industry has not formed attention to the protection of cultural awareness of ceramics and atmosphere.

It is worth mentioning that the Government was aware that some traditional craft is heading towards the brink of disappearing and need to be digging, sorting and rescue. Today, Germany has its own ceramic-based colleges, the college is considered Dehua porcelain hope for the future.

In fact, industrial development and cultural protection, there is no contradiction between the long run, it should be an organic unity, mutually reinforcing relationship, the key still lies in the attitude towards cultural awareness and how to enrich the cultural connotation of ceramics, making economy and culture go hand in hand into the ceramic, it will be the development of ceramic industry must break issue.

Become a collection of contemporary ceramics

It is understood that the early 90s, modern and contemporary ceramics mainly in the form of handicrafts for export trade, and more than that some overseas acquisition, modern and contemporary ceramics, especially Hong Kong, Singapore and Southeast Asia. Into the 21st century, the domestic collection of contemporary porcelain, mostly bought from overseas. Today, the collection of domestic market, increasing cash flow, collecting groups are also rapidly expanding.
