English Translation

In January, Taiwan's Shanghao Publishing House published *Shanghao Zisha Ware*. Gu Jingzhou inscribed the book with the words "Appreciating tea through ink and wash," and traveled to Taiwan. "Wisdom seeks roundness, conduct seeks squareness" *Dadi Fangyuan Magazine* was launched. Gu Jingzhou provided an inscription. In February, he created the "Suo Gua" teapot for Gao Zhenyu's "Shou Qiu Hu" (the body inscribed with "Virtue accumulates from tolerance, fortune is sought through frugality"). In April, the Taiwan Regional Industrial Trade Union inspection delegation visited Gu Jingzhou and took a group photo. In May, the first-day ceremony for the "Yixing Zisha" special commemorative stamps was held at the Yixing Zisha Craft Factory. Gu Jingzhou's "Ti Bi Hu" was selected as the only representative work of contemporary teapot art to be included in the stamp collection. On May 6, the Yixing Zisha Craft Factory held the "Cross-Strait Zisha Development Symposium." Master craftsmen and Taiwanese collectors, along with domestic ceramic art experts, attended the symposium. The "Taodu Cup" First China Folk Collection Auction and Antique Zisha Masterpiece Auction was held at the Yixing Wangtan Building. Gu Jingzhou's "Gao Xu Bian Hu" sold for 168,000 yuan. --- **Chronology of Artistic Achievement**
