This catalogue is published to coincide with the UMAG exhibition Painted Ceramics Contemporary Treasures by Jingdezhens National Masters from the Lamda Foundation. Often celebrated as the most Chinese of all art forms, the tradition of porcelain making and decoration in China is wellknown and exhaustively studied. Lesser known in this millennialong history are the artworks by twentiethcentury national masters who have continued their countrys ceramic practice and achieved treasures representative of their heritage. Today, Jingdezhen has grown from an artists town into an important modern industrial base in Jiangxi Province. Its ceramic industry is flourishing and it has become varied in its scope, producing dailyuse porcelain household wares, construction and electronic ceramics, as well asin comparatively small quantitiesceramic art. This exhibition introduces Jingdezhen as a manufacturing site for artefacts and it focuses on individual talents and the fame of a few master craftsmen, as well as their history and the uninterrupted production of unique highquality porcelain objects of inherent beauty. The mastery and endurance of individual painters has left us an array of vessel shapes, compositions and iconographic subject matter that is, at times, both historic and contemporary. The most famous types of porcelain decoration from Jingdezhen are famillerose, linglong, bluewhite and colourglazed porcelains. All of thesein particular famillerose, linglong and bluewhite creationscontinue to be mastered and, at times, reinterpreted by the national masters of our era. Displayed for the first time in public, these fortyfour artworks by thirtyeight ceramicists represent the strength and ability of Jingdezhens artistic community through changing times.
