註釋
"The Korean ceramics featured in this catalogue span from the unglazed earthenware of the earliest kingdoms (Three Kingdoms/United Silla), to the elegant celadon and stoneware pottery of the Goryeo dynasty, to the graceful porcelains and buncheong ware of the Joseon dynasty. As cultural artifacts, they symbolize the spirit of the times in which they were created. As part of a modern private collection, they are a meaningful reflection of self identity. As a Korean American, Chester Chang has a passionate connection to his collection of Korean art and artifacts. The ceramics in this catalogue are a composite of his acquisitions over the years as well as those passed down from his family. In describing why he enjoys collecting, Chang explains, "I collect and share, therefore I am."" -- Back cover.
