[사진 리움미술관] An exhibition featuring 185 Joseon white porcelain will open on the 28th at the Leeum Museum of Art.This is the first special exhibition to be held under the theme of ceramics since its opening in 2004, and it will also showcase 34 white porcelain owned by Japanese institutions. The exhibition encompasses all types of white porcelain from the 500th year of the Joseon Dynasty, from blue and white porcelain to 철화백자, 동화백자, and pure white porcelain.From the finest ceramics that show the dignity of the royal family to the humble bowls used by local ordinary people as living containers, all the "representative works" came out. A total of 14 organizations participated in the exhibition.Eight places in Korea, including the National Museum of Korea and the Horim Museum, and six others, including the Osaka City Oriental Ceramic Art Museum, gave up "the finest" works, believing in the sign "Reeum."It is not an exaggeration that Leeum pointed to the exhibition as "an exhibition of 'unprecedented' that cannot be seen again. "In the four-part exhibition, the first part of the exhibition hall is a collection of "luxury goods among luxury goods."According to Lee Joon-kwang, a senior researcher at Leeum, it is equivalent to the European Champions League when it comes to soccer. "You can also see the "White Porcelain Blue Flower Maejukmunho(백자청화 매죽문 호)" (National Treasure), which is considered the best luxury among blue and white porcelain in the 15th century.Plum blossoms and bamboo patterns are elaborately drawn on the body with an outstanding sense of balance.The White Porcelain Blue Flower Maejo Jukmunho (National Treasure) with a lotus bud-shaped stem shows the taste of royal families and aristocrats in the 15th century who pursued dignity. The 15th-century "white porcelain banhap(백자반합)," which features soft curves and neat beauty, also exclaims.Researcher Lee said, "This banhap is a white porcelain version of what was originally made of metalware," and explained, "It reveals the royal dignity in a light and strict form."In addition, the moon jar(달항아리) of the Osaka Museum of Oriental Ceramic Art, which has been neatly restored over the years from 300 pieces, can be seen in the first exhibition hall. Part 2-4 introduces blue white porcelain with blue pigment on a white background, iron white porcelain of iron pigment, and cooper white porcelain and pure white porcelain of copper pigment (iron white porcelain) depending on the production technique and region.The blue and white porcelain decorated with blue pigments, which were extremely expensive during the Joseon Dynasty, represented the dignity and dignity of the royal family.The "White Porcelain Blue Unryongmunho(백자청화 운룡문 호)," the largest jar with a dragon (61.9 cm high), is the collection of the Leeum Museum of Art and was unveiled for the first time through this exhibition. Leeum said, "It is a work with a dragon with five toes, and it is a luxury that stands out with a stately shape and a dynamic dragon painting." In the mid-Joseon Dynasty, many iron white porcelain and cooper white porcelain were produced as the supply and demand of blue pigment, a high-quality material, became difficult due to the war with Japan and China.There are also iron white porcelain that expresses powerful dragons and powerful clouds, but local iron white porcelain and cooper white porcelain are also characterized by many friendly and simple patterns like children's paintings.

[사진 이은주문화선임기자] Pure white porcelain, made without colored pigments, shows a colorful "white" world, ranging from milky-white, snow-white, grayish gray, and blue-white.Meanwhile, white porcelain, which was made in the provinces and used as a living container, was not put in a display case, but scattered naturally and friendly like pebbles along the river. This exhibition is also interesting in that it has dramatically changed the way ceramics are displayed.Instead of putting the white porcelain in a built-in closet, it is arranged so that visitors can see it from a 360-degree angle.It is entirely up to the viewer's eye and observation to find an interesting story in the colorful shapes and detailed patterns of white porcelain. Meanwhile, six of the works donated to the National Museum of Korea by the bereaved family of the late chairman Lee Kun-hee (1942-2020) in 2020 were also exhibited at the exhibition.The collection of the Leeum Museum of Art, the home of the "Lee Kun-hee Collection," has 42 pieces, including one national treasure.This is a glimpse of the love of ceramics that led to the persistence of the late Samsung founder Lee Byung-chul (1910-1987), the first-generation collector, to Lee Kun-hee. Researcher Lee Joon-kwang said, "White porcelain produced in each region over 500 years contains portraits of the times, including tradition and change, dignity and humor.""You can get a glimpse of the values that Joseon society adhered to in white porcelain, as well as the thoughts of the prince, which Joseon people considered an ideal human image," he said."Looking at the entire white porcelain of Joseon is a look at the spiritual world of the people of that era."
