** Pot buying and selling eyesight

Beijing Gaobeidian folk culture street, reveals a burst of ancient flavor.

It is adjacent to a street of classical furniture, and houses a museum dominated by logs such as huanghuali and rosewood. In June this year, we stayed here for a new guest, the China Claypot Teapot Museum.

The center of the hall is one floor, and the most prominent block is reserved for Singaporean collectors and Yang Jianghe, owner of the pot. His collection of Wang Xisan, Liu Shouben, Dong Xue, and other in-painting masters gathered in this pot; on the second floor of the pot exhibition area, Taiwan’s collector Ke Zurong and his friends’ pot kettles pulled up the assembly number. The paintings of the Qing Dynasty and modern masters* * Pot Fanghua reproduction.

Ke Zuorong is one of the masters here. Apart from the standing curator, he is also the founding president of the China-China Pottery Association in Taiwan and the honor of the China-China Pottery Federation in Asia.

The story of the pot and pot, he can start from 20 years ago.

In 1986, Ke Zurong began to contact the pot; in 1990, he met Ma Weidu; in 1992, he published a book entitled “Chinese Pottery Reward”. Because potters involved many fields, he asked Bo Baochang to write porcelain, Yang Boda. Write jade, Wang Shichen writes miscellaneous items, Wang Xisan writes in paintings, Ma Weidu and Wen Guihua write prefaces.

That book opened the door to ** pot appreciation. "In order to write this book, I watched more than 2,000 pots," said Ke. "Finally, I have become an expert."

Wang Xisan, who is a master of the painting and painting within the wing, can write an in-painting part for this book, which can only be described by the word “margin”.

In 1990, Ke was in Hong Kong at the International Federation of Potters to hold a charity auction. Wang Xisan was an honorary member of the Federation. Almost all foreigners were in the auction hall. Out of curiosity, Ke Xiangzhong used the brush to write the “edge” of Wang Xisan. He started from $100. Although the bidders were mostly foreigners, Ke was photographed at $1800.

In this way, he met Wang Xisan. Ke said that this is the "fate."

After that, Ke took the lead in setting up the Taiwan China Pottery Association in Taiwan. He is the Founding President.

The establishment of the association gave birth to the popularity of the pot in Taiwan. Ke said: "A number of Taiwanese collectors were affected by this and began to collect pots."

Unlike Singapore's preference for painting pots, Hong Kong's inner paintings and Qing Dynasty pots, Taiwan's painting pots are not too cold and tend to be old pots. “This is probably related to culture. Taiwan maintains the roots of traditional thinking. Singapore has a diverse culture and is more than happy to paint. There are both poles in Hong Kong,” explains Ke. “Many painters often visit Hong Kong and Singapore in China for exhibitions. ”

After the sale of the book, "Korean Rewards", he stepped into the pot circle. "This industry is very interesting. After the front pedal came in, the rear foot quickly followed in." ."

He likes small things. "The pots are small and easy to carry. No matter where they go to the exhibition, there is no problem in packing one hundred suitcases." Ke Xuan ** pot, the first choice of modeling, followed by material and carving.

Gradually, he developed his eyesight.

In 1995, Ke bought a piece of hair crystal in Taiwan for NT$2,000. He was portrayed by the king and painted in water. It was sold for NT$500,000 in NT during Wang’s visit to Taiwan. The story of NT$2,000 into NT$500,000 was still the talk of Wangchao after dinner.

Ke said, "This is the art, this is the wealth that is smelled with the nose."

While smelting wealth, the market capacity of **pots is constantly expanding.

In 1996, the International China Pottery Association held its annual meeting in Beijing and opened the mainland collection. China's Guardian and Beijing Han Hai's ** pot special, gave each auction company a briefing.

In 2005, New York's Christie's "Little Cave - J & J ** Pot Collection", a record high in China ** pot auction; in 2008, this special rerun, single-game turnover rate of 94.3%, with a total turnover of 2,573,500 US dollars.

In 2009, Ke and Beijing Hanhai co-launched the “Innovation in Virtual Arts - Contemporary Inner-Painting Art Contest”. The king's work is the finale, and the “Butterfly” map is priced at RMB 455,000, which sets a new record for contemporary Chinese painting art work.

This year, Hong Kong Bonnie Siqiu, Ke Zuorong bought 1.4 million yuan in 1997 to buy porcelain baked figurines, gourd-shaped pots (Long Lunian system), 8.38 million yuan.

"The test between the sale and purchase is eye-catching." Ke pointed to the album of the Hong Kong Bongos Autumn Pot, and said with confidence.

** The spring pot of the pot was dominated by old Tibetan pots. After he became acquainted with Wang Xisan, he knew the inner picture and gradually collected the pots of masters such as Wang Xisan and Liu Shouben.

Before Ke and Wang got acquainted, Wang painted the pot of the painting in the painting.

In 1981, Wang was invited to participate in the 13th International China Pottery Society Annual Meeting held in Honolulu. In the friendship store on the Waikiki Kalakawa Avenue, Wang and his companions demonstrated the inner painting art of China's pots. .

People not only scramble to buy, but also commissioned him to draw personal portraits, collector Joanna? Liu? Sullivan was thirsty for the pottery in his paintings and ordered a large number of pots for the king, which is still preserved. Since then, Wang made smoke pots hidden in the hands of private collectors in Europe and the United States, Asia and other.

China's traditional art, ** pot all. Ke said: "There should be more Chinese people know about this art." And getting acquainted with the king has also given Ke the chance to spread this culture.

In March 2010, Ke successively held the "Hurricane Hukun - 2010 ancient and modern paintings in the pot" exhibition in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhangjiagang and Shijiazhuang - it was called "Collection Map of Contemporary Inner Painting Art" by the media.

“The market seems to have been winter before Goethe’s recent ** pot special event.” After visiting the Goethe ** pot in Beijing, Ke discovered that more and more Chinese people have begun to take orders and more and more emerging pots The collectors are Chinese. “The spring of pots has arrived.” Kozoo’s past efforts began.
