ABOUT THE GALLERY

彬风堂位于紫砂陶圣地与产地宜兴宜南的阳羡溪山, 是一个开放共享的陶艺综合空间。出生于陶艺世家的陶人高振宇先生作为空间主理人，希望借由这个空间，基于家族四代以来对于陶瓷的理解，分享艺术实践以及作品创作的感悟。

​

时间推移回多年前，当高振宇先生请冯其庸先生题匾时，冯先生用“彬”字表达了文质相当的愿景。“彬”字意在继承发扬明朝宜兴紫砂界的一代大匠时大彬先生遗风之意，它也时刻提醒着艺者，“茶陶之道，并不在于一味流连于技法，而是要追索器物真正打动人的内涵”。

Being Space is located in the Yangxianxishan community, south of Yixing, the hometown of zisha ware. It is a public space dedicated to ceramic art. Gao Zhenyu, the founder, is a ceramic artist born into a family of ceramicists. He aims to share his creations and the insights he has gathered from his family's generations of knowledge in ceramics.

Many years ago, when Gao visited Feng Qiyong, the scholar, to name the space, Feng calligraphed the brand name "Bin Feng Tang" (English name: Being Space) for him. He used the character '彬' to symbolize the harmony of artistic expression and the meaningful content of the pieces that resonate with audiences. The word '彬' also pays homage to Shi Dabin, the renowned master of Yixing zisha teapots in the Ming Dynasty. The three Chinese characters, '彬风堂' (Bin Feng Tang), remind artists that 'the essence of tea and ceramics is not found in an obsession with techniques and decorative intricacies, but in the pursuit of the profound meaning that truly touches people.'
