What gives glass its rich burgundy hue? How do different metal oxides create a spectrum of colors? And how do bubbles, thickness and surface treatments influence the final appearance of a glass artwork?是什麼賦予了玻璃濃郁的酒紅色調?不同的金屬氧化物如何創造出五彩斑斕的色彩光譜?氣泡、玻璃厚度以及表面處理又會如何影響玻璃藝術品的最終呈現效果?
These questions are explored in Molten Light, Crystalized Form – An Artistic Narrative of Cast Glass, an exhibition on the 2nd floor of the Liuli China Museum. Visitors can discover the differences between ordinary glass, colored glass, crystal and liuli, China’s ancient glass, while learning about the science and craftsmanship behind these fascinating materials.琉璃中國博物館二樓的展覽《熔光晶形——失蠟琉璃的藝術敘事》對這些問題進行了深入探討。參觀者可以瞭解普通玻璃、彩色玻璃、水晶以及中國古法琉璃的區別,同時學習這些迷人材料背後的科學原理與製作工藝。

The exhibition is divided into two sections. The first section introduces the 12 stages of lost-wax casting, the traditional technique used to create liuli artworks. Alongside illustrated explanations, each stage is paired with the corresponding materials, such as modeling clay and silicone molds, and tools, including carving knives, wax-melting pots and mineral powders.本次展覽分爲兩個展區。第一展區介紹了製作琉璃藝術品的傳統工藝——失蠟鑄造的12個步驟。展區配有圖文講解,每個步驟都搭配了對應的材料與工具介紹,材料包括造型黏土、硅膠模具等,工具則涵蓋了雕刻刀、融蠟鍋、礦物粉等。
At the center of this section, a demonstration table uses a liuli horse to illustrate the entire process, from sculpting the original model in clay and creating multilayer silicone molds to wax casting, plaster molding, glass casting, and the final detailing and polishing. The display offers an insight into the complex process behind each finished artwork.本節的核心是一張演示表格,它以琉璃馬爲例,完整展示了從用黏土雕刻原始模型、製作多層硅膠模具,到蠟模鑄造、石膏成型、琉璃澆鑄,以及最終的細節處理和拋光的全過程。這一展示能讓人深入瞭解每件成品藝術品背後複雜的製作工藝。
The second section features a group exhibition of liuli artworks by dozens of artists from France, the Czech Republic and China. Highlights include works by renowned French glass artist Antoine Leperlier, Czech glass artists Stanislav Libenský and Jaroslava Brychtová, British artist Colin Reid, and Yang Huishan, founder of the Liuli China Museum. Their creations showcase the expressive possibilities of glass, transforming light, color and texture into distinctive works of art.第二單元呈現一場來自法國、捷克共和國和中國數十位藝術家的琉璃藝術聯展。亮點包括法國著名玻璃藝術家安托萬·勒佩爾利耶、捷克玻璃藝術家斯坦尼斯拉夫·利本斯基與雅羅斯拉娃·布里奇托娃、英國藝術家科林·裏德,以及琉璃中國博物館創始人楊惠姍的作品。這些作品展現了玻璃的表現可能性,將光、色彩與質感轉化爲獨具特色的藝術作品。
