The first English-language book to explore the history of the Korean moon jar and how leading potters now pay homage to its principles.
The moon jar, or ''dal-hang-ari'', as it is known in Korea, is an instantly recognisable form of white porcelain made by joining two hemispherical bowls together, with the seam left visible. This fascinating survey by Korean art expert Jinsoo Park delves into the development of the moon jar during the Joseon period (1392–1897) and explores how these traditions have been revived in modern practice.
Park explains how moon-jar potters – Korean and non-Korean alike – are less attuned to details and are not worried by minor flaws acquired during the firing process. He also shows how the jar''s manufacture is less about technique than about underlying sentiments and aesthetics that combine spontaneity and simplicity, which are key to Korean concepts of beauty and align with Neo-Confucian philosophy.
Accompanied by a photo essay of the construction process featuring a modern moon jar artist and reviewing current trends and expressions, this book is essential reading for any Eastern ceramics enthusiast.
