Author:Shanghai Baoshan Time:2022.07.31

Zhou Jingwei, who had just entered the years, was calm and calm, and she was sincere in speaking. Over the years, Zhou Jingwei traveled to and from Jingdezhen and Shanghai. He was responsible for the advancement of ceramic crafts at the Shanghai Ceramics Technology Museum, and participated in the construction and operation of the national skills master studio led by Liu Wei, a master of Chinese arts and crafts. It was not until last year that he officially moved to Shanghai as a vocational college of Shanghai Arts and Crafts, as the deputy dean of the School of Handicrafts and the head of the Handmade Art Research Center. During the epidemic sealing, he was on duty at school and served his own haircuts for many teachers and students. Because of the superb craftsmanship, everyone was cordially called "Gongmei Tony Zhou".

Zhou Jingwei was born in the Tao Shi family. He followed his grandfather and Jingdezhen porcelain industry master, Mr. Sunday Hui, to take the technique of ceramics, and learned ceramic painting under the influence of Mr. Du Haosheng. Mr. Zhou Xiaohua learns traditional mud glaze preparation. From the beginning of the seven years old, the first touch of the mud, burning the first thing made by hand into porcelain, to the basis of continuous innovation on the basis of inheritance of family studies, and researching the characteristic craftsmanship of ceramic decoration paintings "Under the glaze and silver color", With a number of national practical patents and national invention patents, and "Shanghai craftsmen", ceramics are already the Chinese part of Zhou Jingwei's life. Conversely, Zhou Jingwei's life is also complete, full, full of dynamics and aesthetics due to ceramics.

Grandfather Mr. Sunday Hui was a special model of industrial system in 1963. He participated in the production of Jianguo Porcelain, or the host staff of Gaobai Mud Technology. As the only child in the family, inheriting the family business is logical and responsible for Zhou Jingwei. However, from the beginning, I had to accept this creation, to the current love from the heart, and to find their own value and the meaning of life in the inheritance of the family. He used it for thirty years.

Because the grandfather and father did a lot of skills in traditional ceramics, they naturally hoped that their children would continue to pick up the matter of ceramics. But at that time, Zhou Jingwei had to take his own way, and it didn't mean to see these big things. At that time, he wanted to go to the free sky to fly and take his own way.

When I walked around and came back, I thought it was different. The spirit and skills of the grandfather and father's generation of generations rely on who to continue to speak in the future and continue to continue to continue to become his responsibility. He resigned from work and returned to Jingdezhen, but he was still unwilling to walk on their original road, and did not want to do it. He wanted to find a predecessor, his father could not do, and he couldn't finish. At this stage, he spent a lot of time involving various processes, and the embryo and mud are done. In the end, his attention was attracted by the combination of gold and ceramics. Because gold is valuable and easy to fall, it is unlike the pink and blue and white and white and white. In the museum, it was almost difficult to see a complete device. If this problem can be resolved and can be achieved through him, how huge achievements and presence should be. He is determined to do it.

In China, the technology of decorating ceramics with gold appeared very early, and it was more than a thousand years ago. At first, it was stuck with gold foil and garlic juice. In the Ming Dynasty, it began to use low -temperature colors to burn gold. Although it was burned, it would still fall off. Gold is a stable metal and is difficult to blend with glazed.

In the revelation of the bronze and silver craftsmanship, can the gold and silver be embedded between two layers of glaze to make it disconnected from the air without oxidation; Wonderful luster; in Jingdezhen's traditional skills, are there any information and practices for reference and reference. From the beginning of one idea to the beginning of some experiments and some imaginations, it ended with 99 % of the failure. For many years, Zhou Jingwei's research and practice process is long and difficult. From 2004, he began to invest in the study of ceramic golden color decoration technology. Until November 6, 2010, the research of underglaze gold color finally broke through the last key point and achieved success, and also achieved in gold and silver transitions and underglaze and silver. Successful.

The completion and implementation of the new process of gold and silver color under the glaze not only retains the ancient and simple sense of gold in the Song Dynasty, and the transition with silver mixes to form a picture. A protective layer of high -temperature glaze is formed on the surface of the gold and silver. In this way, gold will neither contact the air nor the direct friction. The loss can be ignored. The industry problems created a unique form of ceramic decorative language and painting expression. This process soon applied for a national invention patent. Six or seven years of concentrated research, Jingwei did it.

The success of the craftsmanship under the ceramic glaze has attracted attention all over the world, including Herchllenzhoson, Germany. This is a non -heritage city with a history of 800 years of porcelain, where almost everyone has grew up watching Tao. Herglunzhoson City enthusiastically invited Zhou Jingwei to establish a studio in the local area to combine the underglaze error gold and silver craftsmanship with the traditional salt -roasted ceramics. The blend of multinational cooperation and culture will open a new window. The skills of Chinese non -genetic inheritance are not only China, but also the treasures and wealth of all mankind. Under the concept of "Community of Human Destiny", Zhou Jingwei and his team are actively trying a cooperation that transcends the boundaries of race and culture, state and ideology to explore and practice the cooperation and development of non -genetic techniques worldwide in the world. The road allows their respective ceramic skills to complete cooperation and form new pottery skills and ceramic varieties. Several generations have come in the same industry, Zhou Jingwei has increasingly knowing that inheritance is not a dead thing, a technology is unchanged, and innovation is a very important part of inheritance. Under the spirit of innovation, only the blue and white porcelain of the Song Dynasty, the blue and white in the Yuan Dynasty, the Doucai of the Ming Dynasty, the enamel and pink color of the Qing Dynasty. These craftsmanship and technologies were all innovations at the time. As the inheritor, not only must they inherit a meticulous and meticulous craftsman spirit, the spirit of innovation also needs to be passed on.

As a inheritor, the sense of pride follows is the sense of crisis. This sense of crisis comes from the rapid development of modern science and technology. In the past few generations, a technology, a trick, and a secret. It seems that today may be a layer of window paper. The intervention of new technologies and new tools makes these adherences quickly lose its meaning and value. How to find the significance and value outside of technology is particularly important, and this may be the driving force for innovation. Innovation is endless.

The experience of 30 years of art and the grinding of life have been transformed into Zhou Jingwei's research and his works. For Zhou Jingwei, ceramics accompanied by growing up in the blood, which is flowing in the blood, and inspecting the flesh, it is not just a container and a furnishings in the eyes of ordinary people. Especially in the process of long -term material research and development and process research, when he gradually found his own artistic expression language and transformed it into a work, he found that what he wanted to say can be expressed through his works. Become a medium that presents the inner world and conveys the internal thoughts, Zhou Jingwei enjoys the great fun. This pleasure and satisfaction inspire him to explore the endless place.

For example, before a piece of work was burned, all gold and silver prefectures seemed to be flat, and there was no dense change. Only long -term experiments and accumulated experience could grasp the false and real relationship and tone in the heart. Therefore, the special effects presented in the paintings of Chinese paintings, oil paintings, and even arts and crafts are not available. It is a thing that is relatively independent of the fire of ceramics. This made Zhou Jingwei feel interesting.

For example, in 2014, Zhou Jingwei studied the completion of the firing ceramic stereo water droplets and signed the Zhangdi ceramic art watch. In 2015, he studied the first blue and white ceramic dial in the world, which made him feel very interesting.

For example, his ceramic works have won numerous awards, many works have been collected, and are loved by people. Among them, "Centennial Bell" is a new work that he is more satisfied with. The work uses ceramic glaze error gold and silver crack gold cracks, and is drawn with the unique texture of gold.

On the road to explore, the joy and satisfaction of success is always short. Zhou Jingwei, who is infiltrated in traditional culture, fears the world, respects the ancestors, and is always grateful to the existing achievements. He believes that all the aura and the repeated breakthroughs of the technology are not so much a qualitative change in quantitative changes. Zhou Jingwei knows that if he wants to be a big country craftsman, he must have a heart that never satisfies and pursues excellence. He hopes that the underglaze golden skills can be passed on like blue and white and pink. He also hopes that he can participate in every change and innovation of ceramic art.

The realization of the craftsmanship under the ceramic glaze has opened a door to a new world for Zhou Jingwei, where there is a space that belongs to him, wonderful and broad. Gold and silver are under darkness, deep and shallow, mottled and cracking. The various accidents that happened during research were extremely valuable technical points in his mind. How to make such accidents and accidents summarizing experience through experiments, making it inevitable, so that the underglaze error gold and silver craftsmanship has a richer expressiveness, so that this historic non -heritage skills have the atmosphere of the times, which is what he explored in the future. Focus. At the same time, as the vice president of Shanghai Academy of Arts and Crafts Vocational College of Arts and Crafts, followed last year to guide students to participate in the 7th Internet + College Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition to win the Shanghai Vocational College Gold Award and the Most Craftsmanship Award and enter the National Finals to get After the National Silver Award, he would hope that in the future, he hopes to have the names of his students in the new generation of craftsmen.

What is inheritance, what is innovation, what is the spirit of craftsmen, and what is dare to be the first. These problems Zhou Jingwei has long been clear. For him, making porcelain is responsibility, fate, and the best way to live.
