浅谈现代陶艺的泥性表达

On the Connotation and Denotation of the Clay Nature in Modern Ceramic Art

泥土是现代陶瓷艺术形态塑造的媒介语言。现代陶艺塑造过程中讲究"泥性"的表达,熟习陶艺"泥性"的表现形式,是一个陶艺家必须具备的功夫。现代陶艺中,艺术家通常根据作品主题需求来选择相应的"泥性"语言表达;而泥性表达又依赖于艺术家在实践过程中的体会和妙悟。表现泥性成为现代陶艺创作的一种艺术自觉性;同时,当代社会艺术美学的人文意蕴和审美情趣也在其间得以展现。

Clay serves as a language medium to shape modeling in ceramic art. Modern ceramic art attaches importance to the connotation and denotation of clay nature. Familiarity with clay nature is the essential ability of a ceramic artist. In the modern ceramic art, the artists choose the corresponding way of expressing and revealing the clay nature based on the specific themes of their works, which lies in their own experience, comprehension and pondering in practice. Moreover, expressing and revealing the clay nature has become a kind of artistic self-consciousness in modern ceramic creation; simultaneously, the contemporary cultural implication and aesthetics are eloquently displayed.
