          artificial charactor

          Wang Xianfeng, who was a teacher, was not a Junci from a subject. However, since the 1990s, Wang Xianfeng began to conduct scientific selective experiments on Jun porcelain glazes, and conducted in-depth and comprehensive research and exploration on the color forming mechanism and firing system of Jun porcelain. In 2007, Wang Xianfeng founded Zhengyu Jun kiln and transformed his research results into actual Jun porcelain fine products. He adopts the coal-to-gas firing process, and pursues the jade-like feeling artistically. "Elegant, elegant, jade and unique style" is his ideal. For this reason, Wang Xianfeng named his studio "Zhengyu Jun Kiln". Nowadays, his Jun porcelain works do not need to look at the base, and people will recognize it at a glance without looking at the glaze color. This is the charm of Wang Xianfeng Junci.

          Wang Xianfeng also attaches great importance to the innovation of Jun porcelain craftsmanship. In his Jun porcelain "Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow", a curved horse leg has to support the weight of the whole body, and the difficulty can be imagined. Moreover, when the furnace temperature is 1300°C, the utensils have softened into mud, and a slight change in the environment will crack, collapse and be scrapped. In order to develop this work, Wang Xianfeng overcame numerous difficulties in molding, clay, glaze color, and firing. After hundreds of tests, he finally overcome the technical problems of single-leg bearing and handling the high temperature of 1300℃. Jun Porcelain's "Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow" not only perfectly demonstrates the artistic charm of the original bronzes of the Eastern Han dynasty, it is the first time that it reproduces the charm of traditional Chinese culture, including the sense of strength, the rhythm of movement, elegance and lightness, and beauty Successfully realized on Junci.

When he was awarded the title of Master of Traditional Chinese Crafts in 2013, the organizing committee recommended the reason: to innovate while inheriting tradition. In 2016, he won the Contribution Award of the Highest Honor Award for Chinese Folk Cultural Relics (Henan Region).

          Master's View

          “In the art world, artists use their works to speak. In the Junci world, masters also use their works to speak. The works of masters are either good or good by themselves. Only the collectors and the market are good. Don’t take steps. There is no way to reach a thousand miles; if there is no accumulation of small streams, there is no way to make a river. If a master wants to make a difference in the world of Jun porcelain, he has to lean down and be content with loneliness, carefully study Jun porcelain, innovate Jun porcelain, and accumulate more. , Accumulate and accumulate thin hair. If you follow the trend and others, you will always follow behind others' buttocks, copy other people's works, and eventually be eliminated by the market. As the birthplace of Junci culture, they dare to innovate and continue to inherit traditional production techniques. Enterprising, so that the ancient Jun porcelain can better radiate the brilliance of the new era, is my obligatory historical mission!" Master Wang Xianfeng said.
