"Blue and white" - Chinese-style
Porcelain and earthenware - between visual sources and material realities (16th-18th century)
La production de « bleu et blanc » chinois ou « d’inspiration chinoise » constitue un objet d’étude significatif. Ces fameuses porcelaines, fabriquées notamment à Jingdezhen (Jiangxi) durant l’époque Yuan, ont commencé à circuler au sein des cours européennes à l’aube du XVIe siècle. C’est seulement au cours du XVIIe siècle qu’elles furent l’objet d’un engouement plus large donnant lieu à la fabrication de copies sous la forme de céramiques de diverses qualités. De cette nouvelle « mode » sont nés des substituts inspirés des modèles chinois, accessibles aux bourses les plus modestes. Ainsi est apparu l’épiphénomène des faïences dites « au goût de la Chine ».

New research on the History of Chinese gardens and landscapes
Organised by Dr Jan Woudstra in conjunction with the Gardens Trust, the event will look at new discoveries in the field from both professionals and post-graduate students from around the world. Dr Alison Hardie will introduce the conference and outline the importance that Maggie Keswick’s 1978 book The Chinese Garden, History Art and Architecture has played in the subject. It is a unique opportunity to hear speakers from UK and International institutions to present their new research in the field. Talks will cover subjects as wide-ranging as Jesuit water landscapes, gardens as museums, Feng Shui symbolism and botanical watercolours.
