Porcelain Work Collected By MoMA
Jingdezhen used to be the porcelain capital of the world; the life’s work of the people who traveled here was to build kilns and make porcelain. Porcelain was the symbol of Jingdezhen and the highest representation of China’s artistic spirit.
Constructing the site model of this project out of porcelain represents two things: on the one hand, the seamless integration of history and contemporary culture; and on the other, a process of transforming a traditional idea of a representational architectural model into a kind of abstract artwork.
