Features: Detaching from the base, integrating into the environment, and transcending objective objects have become the direction of contemporary ceramic art in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Of course, the application of ceramic art in fields other than home and interior decoration has not seen historically significant new developments. Discussions about the application of ceramic art in spaces beyond the home have been ongoing for a long time. The application of ceramic art in public and semi-public spaces is an indispensable role within the traditional fields of ceramic use. In this postmodern world, the concept of transcending objective objects, which Zhang Yushan clearly elaborates in the book, is a positive stance in the field of ceramics. The Ishtar Gate, the Forbidden City, and the terracotta horizon of New York will not simply become history; they exist freely, transcending the limitations of time, and influencing the reshaping of artists' imagination of the present and future world. Thank you, Zhang Yushan, for writing such a unique work in the field of ceramics—one that opens a window for us to glimpse the infinite possibilities of this world.
