The best blue and white or underglaze blue ware came from Jingdezhen, the ceramic capital of China. Since the 14th century both the imperial court and the general public patronized the production of blue-and-whites from Jingdezhen, giving rise to the so-called official and Minyao (or provincial) ware. Scholarship in the past was, and to some extent still is centred upon the products from the official factories at the expense of provincial ware. This exhibition addresses this issue by focussing on the provincial blue-and-whites of the Yuan and Ming dynasties. The style of Minyao blue-and-whites is distinctively different from that of imperial ware. The decorative motifs encompass a much wider range of subjects. The lines and washes are spontaneous while the blue pigment usually runs slightly, leaving an impressively natural touch in the design. Minyao ware consists not only of utilitarian products for domestic life, but includes censers and ritual bowls for religious services, funerary objects like epitaphs, jars or covered bowls, and export commodities such as large dishes or kendis. They are first-hand materials that facilitate studies of the politics, economics, technology, overseas trade, social customs, religious, and artistic atmospheres of the Yuan and Ming dynasties. On display at this exhibition are 128 items of the Yuan and Ming (late 14th — mid 17th centuries) periods produced in Jingdezhen. Half of the exhibits, primarily specimens from dated burials, come from the Jiangxi Provincial Museum and cultural institutions in Jiangxi. The rest, mostly products for local and overseas markets, are selected from the Art Museum collection and loans from private and public collections in Hong Kong and the Philippines. In particular, there are over 30 items from datable contexts, providing significant specimens for academic research. The installation juxtaposes archaeological finds from mainland China with salvages from shipwrecks in South-east Asian waters and heirloom pieces, making it the first of its kind ever found in exhibitions of Chinese blue and white ware staged anywhere so far. The exhibition is financed by the Exhibition Revolving Fund of the Friends of the Art Museum. It will be preceded by a formal opening and preview at 4.30 p.m. on 26th September hosted by Prof. Kenneth Young, pro-vice-chancellor. Mr. Wang Xiaoqing, deputy director of the Department of Culture in Jiangxi Province, will cut the ribbon. 景德鎮明代民窯青花瓷器國際硏討會 International Symposium on Ming Provincial Blue and White Ware from Jingdezhen 為配合「江西元明青花瓷展」，文物館將於九月二十六及二十七日主辦國際研討 會，邀請海內外學者出席，探討明代民窯青花瓷器的歷史及社會因素，其分類、發 展及斷代，在海內外之發現，外銷及影響等。 研討會獲鄭德坤教授伉儷中國考古藝術基金贊助，於大學行政樓祖堯堂舉行， 會議以普通話或英語宣讀論文，設有即時傳譯。開幕禮於九月二十六日上午九時半 舉行，由中國文化研究所所長蘇芳淑教授主持。 查詢詳情請電二六零九七四一六，傳真二六零三五三六六，或上網（ http://www. cuhk.edu.hk/ics/am m ) 瀏 覽。 The International Symposium on Ming Provincial Blue and White Ware from Jingdezhen will be held from 9.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. on 26th and 27th September 2002 in Cho Yiu Conference Hall.
