NG FOO CHEONG (Malaysian, b.1965), acrylic on canvas & ceramic - Straits Chinese Porcelain, signd and titled verso, 30 x 76cmAuctioneer's Note:Ng Foo Cheong’s art acts as a metaphor for the persistent cultural significance of ancient civilizations throughout the ages, and continuing in the contemporary world. Over centuries of both destruction and development, war and political transformations great civilizations spread power throughout the world, leaving a complex and fascinating legacy of not only military and social advances, but cultural evolution. It is through this window – that of art and architecture, music and literature – that Cheong’s art examines the past, and engenders a unique dialogue between the art of past and present cultures. Born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Cheong received his degree in Fine Arts, and has participated in numerous exhibitions throughout Malaysia. His art has also been displayed in shows in London, Stockholm, Brussels, New York, West Indies, Korea, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore & Australia.

(D)JB - Not far from the Cote d'Azur, Pierre, together with his wife Claude, runs a picturesque workshop full of convivial friendship and a congenial working atmosphere shared with the two or three students who always become part of the family. His home plays open house to friends and visiting potters from the entire world. Pierre works in stoneware. But the really special thing about his work is the painting. And his chosen motifs are unusual: Pierre paints flowers because, as he says, he loves flowers. His ceramic forms are classical, often functional, enlivened by the freedom of the painterly decoration derived from the source of his inspiration, the flowers, foliage and gardens of the Mediterranean region of France where he was born.Additional InformationGlaze flake to rim, otherwise appears good with no further signs of faults, damage or restorations.This lot qualifies for Artist Resale Rights.

Obori-Soma ware from the Meigetsu kiln, Namie, Fukushima Perfecture, Japan; 'The Fukushima Teapot', a small pierced double skinned stoneware teapot covered in green crackle and iron glaze decorated with a sacred running horse, painted mark, height 10cm, and a matching cup (2).Provenance: Purchased in Bandol, 2012.JB - I am installing the international ceramic exhibition of Le Printemps de Potiers at Bandol a matter of a few weeks after the horrendous Fukushima nuclear disaster. There is a rumour of a guest visitor - a traditional potter from that devastated region. The man's home, studio and livelihood are all destroyed. The elderly, renowned potter and his young assistant arrive with a selection of work and we contrive a space in the entrance hall which makes an adequate display area. The work is not essentially my taste, but it is undeniably masterly. I red spot a small teapot and appropriately tiny teabowl. I cannot recall the potter's name. I have no record of it.Additional InformationPiercing to outer skin of cup broken in one place and chip to footring, otherwise appears good with no further signs of faults, damage or restorations.
