The American Museum of Ceramic Art is honored to present ICHEON: Reviving the Korean Ceramics tradition, an unprecedented exhibition organized by Icheon, South Korea. Icheon has a history of ceramic culture that began over 5000 years ago and has a reputation for its internationally renowned ceramics cultural events. Now Icheon has reached out to an American institution for the very first time. As the premiere exhibition of its kind in the United States, ICHEON will present over 230 objects never before seen on American soil that exemplify the revival of the ceramics tradition in Korea from antique techniques to contemporary innovations.
About AMOCA

aaaand I suddenly aspire to be a ceramics master

[@jazzflutist]

lol I had the same thought. I was hearing the sound of one hand clapping too.

How did your ceramics mastery come along after 5 years?

Спасибо за прекрасный видеоролик! Релакс! С замиранием сердца наблюдаю за работой талантливых мастеров! Творческие способности у человека от Бога! Красивое, древнее искусство, которое сохранило свою актуальность и востребованность до сих пор. В каждом доме всегда найдется хоть одно керамическое изделие. Ещё в глубокой древности гончары вылепливали из глины сосуды и обжигали их, чтобы они стали твердыми и водостойкими. Гончары, как правило, работали в одиночку, хотя у некоторых были помощники - подмастерье. На местах археологических раскопок часто находят фрагменты керамики, иногда в больших количествах. Археологи изучают эти фрагменты, чтобы определить, к какой культуре они относятся. Порой находят целые изделия с содержимым , которое прекрасно сохранилось, не потеряв полезных свойств. Например семена злаковых культур, которые, спустя века, смогли прорасти. Удивительно! Археологи раскапывают слой за слоем, чтобы понять, когда именно в тех местах были поселения. Судя по количеству обнаруженных фрагментов, ученые также пытаются определить, какая там была плотность населения и раскрыть интересные исторические факты. Власть гончара над глиной помогает представить, какую власть имеет Творец над отдельными людьми и народами. " Но ныне, Господи, Ты - Отец наш; мы - глина, а Ты - образователь наш, и все мы - дело руки твоей" (Библия). Изделие прославляет мастера своей неповторимостью, а человек - венец творений Бога, своими способностями! ............................................................. Great video! Relax! With bated breath I watch the work of talented craftsmen. Human creativity comes from God! Beautiful, ancient art that has retained its relevance and relevance to this day. There is always at least one ceramic product in every home. Even in ancient times, potters fashioned vessels from clay and fired them to make them hard and waterproof. Potters typically worked alone, although some had apprentice assistants. Fragments of ceramics are often found at archaeological sites, sometimes in large quantities. Archaeologists study these fragments to determine which culture they belong to. Sometimes entire products are found with contents that are perfectly preserved without losing their useful properties. For example, the seeds of cereal crops, which after centuries were able to germinate. Marvelous! Archaeologists are excavating layer by layer to understand exactly when there were settlements in those places. Judging by the number of fragments discovered, scientists are also trying to determine what the population density was there and uncover interesting historical facts. The Potter's power over the clay helps to illustrate the power Jehovah has over individuals and nations. «But now, O Jehovah, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.»( Bible). The product glorifies the master with its uniqueness, and man, the crown of God’s creations, glorifies him with his abilities!

I come here every little while to watch these amazing masters at work while listening to the soothing piano. Such a satisfying video, and such talent by these masters.

[@CompanionCarli]

Having thrown my first bowl ever, I must say that I am immensely jealous of these artists amazing abilities. Throwing clay is so hard you don't even know.

[@amcreative3784]

I do. Still throwing mud. Spent five weeks throwing with other potter's. Ended up with small yet centred pots. If I don't prepare my clay properly then I get poor results. I have some decent bowls now. It takes years for some of us. Still think mine are denser.

We see these beauties in shops or magazines and admire how wonderful they are but never really think of the people who spend their lives making them.
