Features: This book explores the topics of traditional and modern ceramics, investigates the form and language of ceramic art, discusses the development of art and design education, explores the process and understanding of pottery creation, and shares notes on reflections from observations and comments on paintings after reading about ceramics. Chinese ceramic art has a long history and tradition, with outstanding works enjoying worldwide acclaim. There is much to study and reveal, but research from the perspectives of aesthetics and art design is still insufficient, with many gaps to be filled. A theoretical system with specialized attributes and characteristics of ceramic art should be established, requiring learning from experts in archaeology, cultural relics, science and technology, aesthetics, and other fields. This task must be completed jointly by practitioners and theorists. The articles collected in this volume mostly retain their original published form, with only minor modifications to a few article titles and corrections of some typographical errors. They are arranged by type rather than by the order of writing and publication.
