Pottery of the people!

We are excited about Jackson Lee's second solo exhibition at our gallery. His first solo exhibit in October 2008 featured his series "New Imperial Wares," which modernized the grace and beauty of porcelain vessels used by the imperial families of dynastic China.

The upcoming exhibition features new "mingei" (folk art), Jackson's interpretation of the pottery of the people. These wares are earthy and rough, yet possess simple and functional aesthetics. Jackson attempts to reconnect us to ceramic wares and the role they play in the rhythm of our daily routines.

Jackson is also an award-winning documentary filmmaker and the co-founder of Sanbao, a ceramic art institute in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province.

Opening reception: Saturday, November 21, 4:00 to 6:00 pm

china: Unlimited

We are participating in Shanghai's first ceramic art expo entitled "china: Unlimited." This expo runs from November 6 to 9.

We are representing Jackson Lee (Li Jian Shen) and pieces from his "New Imperial Wares" collection. These pieces are utilitarian and elegant, echoing the grace and grandeur of dynasties past while embodying modern functionality and accessibility.

Some photos from our booth:



Come find us at booth 48, 4th floor at the ShanghaiMart.

Jackson's next solo exhibition opens at our gallery on Saturday, November 21. This exhibit, called "From Day to Day", will feature his latest body of work, "New Mingei." Otherwise known as "pottery of the people", this new series of pieces examines the role that ceramics plays in our daily life, from bowls to vases, adding both beauty and utility. Jackson endeavors to reconnect us with folk art in his latest exhibition.
