"In China, from the past to the present, ceramics is not just a material but a language. Alex Burchmore has insightfully translated this language and its variations, or accents, in contemporary Chinese art."--Jiang Jiehong, author of The Art of Contemporary China "Rather than simply extracting meanings from the artworks, Alex Burchmore tells us broader stories of China's history, culture, and contemporary social life associated with the making of contemporary ceramic art. These are not aesthetic objects alone; rather, this is a conceptually oriented collective production full of the ambiguity between traditional symbolism and contemporary deconstruction."--Gao Minglu, author of Total Modernity and Avant-Garde in Twentieth-Century Chinese Art
