Blue-and-white Porcelains

The "Blue and White Porcelain" exhibition features themes such as "Blue and White throughout Chinese History," "The Export of Blue and White Porcelain," and "The Archaeological Study of Blue and White Porcelain." It carefully selects blue and white porcelain pieces from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, using archaeological research methods for detailed analysis. This not only clearly outlines the stylistic characteristics and development trajectory of blue and white porcelain over six hundred years but also uses it as a medium to recreate the vibrant exchanges and collisions of ancient economic and cultural interactions between China and foreign lands.

This exhibition is not only a deep exploration of the artistic value of blue and white porcelain but also a comprehensive review of its role in global cultural exchanges. Through the exhibited precious collections, visitors will have the opportunity to experience the aesthetic changes of blue and white porcelain in different historical periods, as well as how it has become an important medium for East-West exchanges.

The exhibition aims to unveil the stories behind blue and white porcelain through carefully designed interactive sessions and detailed academic explanations, showcasing that it is not only a transmission of material culture but also a bridge connecting people from diverse cultural and temporal backgrounds.

Additionally, the exhibition will focus on the cultural adaptation and innovation of blue and white porcelain during its export process, exploring how it was endowed with new meanings and values in different cultural contexts. By delving into these historical milestones, we hope that visitors can gain a more comprehensive understanding of blue and white porcelain, not only as a representation of traditional Chinese craftsmanship but also as a vivid example of cultural exchange in the context of globalization.
