The Evolution And Application Of Ceramic Mural Decoration

In this thesis, from Chinese and overseas part I expatiate history of the development and application of ceramic mural decoration breadthwise. At the same time I expound the progress of ceramic mural decoration from three stages of Ancient times, Middle Ages, Neoteric and Modern times lengthways. In the second chapter, there is a history of ceramic mural decoration. There are three main stages of ceramic mural decoration at abroad including hierons in ancient Babylon, Islamic mosques, mediaeval European palace and Christ church, as well as public environment in modern Europe, America and Japan. Then I introduce the three representative forms of mural decoration including brick of figure, the veneer of colored glaze and brick engraved in the chapters of Chinese part. In the second chapter, there is the application of modern ceramic mural decoration in the various nations, along with modern wall brick that industrialize. At last from the point of view of the art of environment, I show its foreground and characteristic. Doing the research, I have seen a great deal of ceramic mural decoration abroad appears and makes rapid progress. I have always been thinking: Why not develop precious inheritance left by ancestry continuously, while the foreigners do better than us. At the beginning of looking back history of Chinese and Foreign ceramic mural decoration, there are illustrations found out in the world, nothing but do I want to arouse the potters, sculpturers, city environment design, and architects and so on pay great attention to ceramic material an its application, and hope everybody can know the artistic fascination ceramic. At the same time, I try to let people understand ceramic is not only a kind of material, but also a kind of culture and a kind of affective historical sign. Also make each citizen profoundly realize: First, porcelain and pottery is outcome that technical ability of human beings and natural material blend into each other, because the quality and the form of the pottery comes from the natural soil and fire, it is most of natural attribute, having inside harmonious and inornate characteristic. Secondly, earthen materials, which are regarded as one of components of architecture characteristic for, it embody characteristic of tradition and region. Thirdly, because ceramic is of fine intension, rottenless solidity clean, ceramic has become principal material of the public environment, as well one of materials of modern art. Therefore, I think the relevant study of application of the ceramic mural decoration has become quite important in not only theory but also practice.
