Collector Li Rongsheng's Private Museum

In the current collection of Chinese antique art collections, many collectors have already accumulated certain collections. Among them, there are such a group of people. They also use their own collections to set up a special private museum. Located in the Yongxintang Collection in Yangzhong City, Jiangsu Province, it is such a private museum. This company uses corporate earnings as the main source of operating funds, insists on free access to the public, and uses private museums that disseminate Chinese ceramic culture as their mission. This is unique in Yangzhong City.

Building Museums to Contribute to the Cultural Cause of Hometown Li Rongsheng, the CEO of three privately-owned registered companies, said that the history of Yangzhong City is not very long when talking about the original intention of establishing the Yongxintang Museum. Therefore, the cultural heritage is not so profound. There are even fewer antique artworks handed down. As a collector who has been engaged in the collection of ceramics for many years, the establishment of Yongxintang Collection on the basis of his own collection is also intended to make up for the lack of specialized ceramic museums in Yangzhong.

“Through the Yongxintang Collection I founded, I also want the children and children and grandchildren living in Yangzhong to be able to admire China’s splendid and long ceramic culture at home.” Li Rongsheng told reporters, let alone He himself also has a special liking for ceramics, so he uses the ceramic collections he has collected from all over the country for many years to open the collection of Yongxintang, which mainly displays ancient ceramics.

According to Li Rongsheng, Yong Xin Tang Collection has collected more than 300 pieces of ceramics from various periods. From the ancient pottery of the Han Dynasty to the porcelain of the period of the **, it is rich in variety. Among them, the most important items are the Song Dynasty porcelains represented by five famous kilns. “The collections of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty were all visible in my museum, such as the sacred censer of the kiln, the complete kiln of the kiln, etc.”

The selection of collections in the collections of the Yongxintang Collection is not unrelated to Li Rongsheng’s own collection preferences. "When we first started collecting ceramics, we could have the same aesthetic orientation as most people on the market, preferring Ming and Qing dynasties to porcelain. Now I am more enamored of the Song Dynasty porcelain that excels in simplicity." He told reporters that now All the tourists from all over the country made special trips to visit him. Most of them are looking for a glimpse of the Song Dynasty porcelain.

Accumulating the Collection After training his eyesight in the office In the interview, Li Rongsheng recalled his experience when he first started contacting the ceramics collection and felt that he had suffered a lot from the so-called "experts". "At that time, because I didn't know too much about ceramic itself, it was easy to believe in some irresponsible experts, so I also took a lot of detours in my collection." Later, as the collections grew, I saw and contacted them. There are more and more ceramic collections, and his eyesight has gradually increased.

Especially when choosing to collect the collections from the collection of the Yongxintang Collection, he will also work with the 35-members to strictly control the collections. "In the process of appraisal of a collection, as long as there is an expert who says something is wrong, then I will not collect it." It is in this serious and rigorous attitude that Li Rongsheng also hopes that the Yongxintang Collection will be able to Many boutiques are presented to visitors who come to visit.

Finally, when talking about the future development of the Yongxintang Collection, Li Rongsheng also expressed his desire to actively cooperate with all parties in addition to the regular collection display, and to develop various cultural exchange activities together. In turn, we will strive to build the Yongxintang Collection Museum into a big classroom for the dissemination of Chinese ceramic culture in Yangzhong City.
