Young ceramicists of Vologda began to get to know the traditions of China. The students of Blue Bird Ceramics Studio are now in Yixing City, Jiangsu Province. The cultural and educational program of Vologda residents began at the ceramics museum. The delegation is accompanied by Tang Han, a professor at Xi'an Foreign Studies University, an adviser to the regional governor and an official representative of Vologda Region in Shaanxi Province. The guys came to learn more about the traditional art of creating Zisha Yiqing ceramics. We were introduced to this technique for the first time in the spring at a master class of Gleb Nikolaevich Mozrokov, an honorary member of the Isinsk Ceramic Industry Union, in Vologda. It was then that Gelb Nikolaevich suggested organizing a trip to the cradle of ancient art. The program will include: a visit to the Zisha Museum, located in an old mine; Familiarity with the work of local masters in private studios; trips to clay making and ceramic firing centers; Studying the structure of the dragon kiln - a traditional Chinese structure for firing ceramics, which played an important role in the development of local pottery production. A tour of Isin and a meeting with the city leadership are planned, where our guys will present the pottery and ceramic traditions of the Vologda region. The delegation will also visit Shanghai. Such cultural exchanges and trips of Vologda residents are part of our strategy to strengthen and develop international inter-regional ties between the Vologda region and the provinces of the People's Republic of China.
