后石札记
- 康青陶瓷艺术个展
10月12日-11月19日
“后石札记”是上大美院陶艺工作室康青老师继去年在北京“它山之石”个展后的又一个以文人文化结合陶瓷材料思考和创作的专题展。“它山之石”在话语里应该是用来指代另一种能力,一种可以攻玉,最起码也在和攻玉的互文中平行的一个物质,而借玉引出来的瓷与玉一道在中国的文化中互为参照,互为“他者”也互相为对方提供了最为相惜的审美动力,用瓷的语言从不同角度为“他山之石”找寻目标,是康青这次展览创作的动机。
这次展览以札记的形式把康青近一年的创作思路展现了出来,展览延续了康青一贯对自然和人文的关怀态度,把瓷的洁净优雅和文人眼中的太湖石抽象地结合在一起,并把中国民间传统的红绿彩以她个人化的风格引入到她最新的创作中来,值得期待。

After Thoughts - Jade·Stone·Porcelain
- Kang Qing Solo Ceramic Art Exhibition
Oct 12th - Nov 19th
This exhibition is based on artist Kang Qing’s previous show “Other Rocks” which occurred last year at Beijing. As an Academy teacher from Shanghai University, Kang Qing spends most of her studio time working with “scholar rocks” that are actually made of porcelain instead of raw stone. After her “Other Rocks” exhibition, Kang Qing has found that the concept of “Other Rocks” could be represented in other variations that still allow her porcelain work to fit within the scholar rock as well as jade contexts in our present time. "Other Rocks" is a special Chinese word which refers to how other people’s experiences could be helpful. This is what Kang Qing wishes to bring out from this series of work.
This exhibition works as a note book to record and exhibit what Kang Qing is concerned with as an artist. This series continues the deep concerns of human and nature from an artist’s perspective. By juxtaposing the scholar rock with the pure porcelain body, as well as including a few pieces of traditional red-green rock vase patterns, these new versions will add enriching flavor to her recent work. It is twocities Gallery’s honor to present this exhibition that carries forward the “Other Rocks” concept - “Afterthoughts – Jade ∙ Stone ∙ Porcelain”.
