Ceramic display
Norwegian artist Torbjorn Kvasbo has returned to Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province, where he is able to retouch clay and reconnect with the city's ceramic culture. He stayed there briefly four years ago. This time he gives new life to used porcelain vases and plates by pulling them together with wires and suspending them in midair for his new works that are on display at his solo exhibition, Incarnate, at the Ceramic Art Avenue Art Gallery in Jingdezhen. Also on show are his signature Tube Sculptures and Stack series. Kvasbo is internationally renowned for his experiments with and presentation of ceramics. His most celebrated style is the clustering of ceramic tubes to convey spirituality. The loneliness and persistence of the artist, as well as his thoughts on finding his identity and getting along with the world, are themes of such works. The exhibition runs through to Sept 23.
9 am-9 pm, closed on Mondays. Taoxichuan, 150 Xinchang West Road, Zhushan district, Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province.
