Liu Mingwu has been found great talent in arts since his childhood. He was able to draw without teacher’s instruction and won the first place in art contest when he studied in primary school at the age of six. In terms of art crafts, and wooden and stone sculptures, he has shown more outstanding ability than any other. He had taken apart of part of a house and a pig barn, and used the material to build a little house under a big tree outdoors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Out of his great passion for arts, Liu Mingwu leamnt the world most difficult realm of art, Taiwan’s classic temple architecture. He became a student of the renowned master of temple building in Taiwan, Lin Wenhsien. He firstly learnt for the master’s son, Lin Dengchuan of “cut-and-paste art”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Liu Mingwu met his wife, a daughter of a Christian family, in 1977. This has great influence on the rest of his life. He then has become an elder in the church and been invited to preach all year round because of his eloquence. In 1982, Liu Mingwu developed the Jiao Zhi pottery of temples to be art works. An incident happened when he exported them from Keelung Customs which caught media’s attention. The Customs withheld those he was going to export and accused him of trafficking national treasure. His works were then sent to National Palace Museum and they were identified as very important national treasure which should be prohibited exporting. Liu Mingwu had been very sincere as a Christian and ignored any attack or scolding. He neither fought back nor attack but praised his counterpart as his response. Finally, these organizations realized the fact and admired his tolerance, and gave him the title of ‘Living National Treasure” as the happy ending.<\/span><\/p>\n

A blessing came in disguise. Liu Mingwu became more well-known because of this incident but he then encouraged himself to study harder. He travelled around the world with the supports from the church and has been even more cultivated in twenty years. He started trying to create. Firstly, he broke through the set pattern of art crafts and improved the traditional Jiao Zhi pottery to high-temperature jewel pottery, which earns him much positive response and acclaim. He has held many huge exhibitions in Taiwan’s museums, cultural centers, and Taipei City Art Museum. Many countries also invited him to preach along with exhibiting his works. These all keep earning him very good reputation. The President of Argentina praised him as “Eastern Michelangelo” and gave him an Honorary Doctorate Degree of Philosophy of Arts. He is also given the title of Mr. Formosa by the media of the U.S.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]Chronology<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

In 1982, the work was detained at Keelung Cuastoms along with the same batch of works,<\/span><\/p>\n

and charged with theft of national treasures, shocking the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the end, the work was identified by the National<\/span><\/p>\n

Palace Museum as nati tional cu ultural treasure assets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Koji pottery is a kind of modeling clay made in low temperature with sintering temperature<\/span><\/p>\n

of 78o degrees<\/span><\/p>\n

When this work was created, Liu, Ming-Wu was only in his twenties. At that time,<\/span><\/p>\n

Koji pottery must imitate the ancient times as they were ordered by antique dealers<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1991, the European and American Art Society told me that your pottery<\/span><\/p>\n

is beautiful, but retains a strong craft component. If you improve from<\/span><\/p>\n

the aspect of painting, you can reach the highest level of art in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Later, I spent more than ten years studying, even almost bankrupt. Finally,<\/span><\/p>\n

with the help of a number of scientists, it was sintered successfully.<\/span><\/p>\n

This work is a cameo painting in the process of transforming a stereoscopic<\/span><\/p>\n

surface into a flat one.<\/span><\/p>\n

My glazes were extracted from gem mines, and the secretformula of gem glazes is a result of painstaking R&D andtest through nineteen generations of founders.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the texture and quality of the pottery painting burnedout with gem glazes is never the same as a general painting.If viewing with an illuminated high-expansion magnifying glass, it will bring you into another universe to feel the sorich colorful world, and the beauty of that realm is hard to imagine unless witnessed.<\/span><\/p>\n
