SUMMARY:Kindred Spirits: Japanese Ceramics in Chinese Style from the Shen Zhai Collection
DESCRIPTION:Clare Pollard will talk about the Shen Zhai Collection and the recent publication Kindred Spirits: 100 Ceramics in Chinese Style. The Shen Zhai Collection, which she co-authored with Patrick K. M. Kwok, Rose Kerr, Maezaki Shinya and Fukunaga Ai.\nWhile Chinese ceramics have played a crucial role in Japanese culture throughout history, relatively little attention has been paid to the way in which this longstanding artistic relationship evolved during the Meiji, Taishō and early Shōwa eras. The Shen Zhai collection of Japanese ceramics was created by Patrick K. M. Kwok to illustrate the remarkable flowering of Chinese-inspired porcelain in Japan at this time and the book showcases 100 pieces inspired by Chinese styles, techniques and forms from the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties. Accompanying essays explore the phenomenon from a variety of perspectives, through historical context, reference to the Chinese originals, case studies of individual potters and specific works, and a historiographical look at scholarship around ‘Chinese style’ in Japanese ceramics.\nThe lecture will discuss the Shen Zhai collection and present some of the major themes of the book through a selection of key objects.\nMembers do not need to book to attend this lecture.\n5:30 pm – Society of Antiquaries opens for members’ refreshments\n6:15 pm – Lecture begins\nSponsored by Woolley & Wallis\nImage: Suwa Sozan I, ‘kinuta seiji’ vase in Longquan style, c. 1913-14, Shen Zhai Collection\n
