　　師承一代藝術大家 繼承傳統開拓創新

　　1984年,范偉群進入紫砂二廠隨老師吳同芬學藝,自幼受陶藝世家氛圍的熏陶,和老師的嚴格教導以及自己刻苦學習,范偉群很快全面掌握了紫砂工藝的各種制作技能,其所制”夾砂扁富壺”獲得了全廠技術質量無記名評選一等獎,而后被中國工藝美術大師徐漢棠收為己徒,如遇甘露。在徐大師的悉心教導下,范偉群在紫砂工藝的制作技法和創作手法上有了更大提高,做到光素器、花塑器、筋紋器樣樣精通。

　　1992年后,范偉群先后受聘于紫砂五廠、蜀古紫砂廠任技術輔導,為紫砂業培養了百余名紫砂工藝新人。其先后創作的多個新品相繼入選參加港澳臺地區展覽,獲得一致好評,深得海內外紫砂愛好者的喜愛,成為當時紫砂界最具潛力的青年陶藝家。

　　在藝術創作上范偉群繼承傳統、開拓創新,鑄成了他的作品講思想、講精神、講工藝、講文心。無論是效法自然的仿真花貨,線條流暢的筋紋茶具,還是書卷氣郁郁芊芊的光器,都展現出他的紫砂藝術中飽含的時代精神、審美追求與文化品格。

　　“大生壺”享譽海內外 第四代傳人延續輝煌

　　范偉群是清末民初制壺大家范欽仁(字承甫,1875-1942)嫡孫,1875年,范欽仁出生于太湖之畔宜興丁蜀西望圩村,為“大生壺”締造者范廣善長子,《范氏家譜》載:為范仲淹第二十九世孫。

　　據悉,“范大生”是社會上對制壺大家范廣善、范欽仁父子的別稱。因范廣善、范欽仁父子所制茗壺均用“大生”作為壺上銘記,“大生”是他們父子公用的藝名。“大生壺”因作品制作精美,造型豐富而名聲大噪,民國時期就享有“千金難求大生壺”之美譽;他們所創作品連續六次獲得國際金獎,是宜興紫砂第一個國際金獎獲得者,“大生壺”享譽海內外。

　　作為“大生壺”的第四代傳人,范偉群展現了紫砂嶄新的面貌與思想的維度,為陷入傳統范式的紫砂壺藝增添新的生機。因為博覽多學、涉獵豐足,從業三十年的范偉群在寫實與寫意之間過渡,由紫砂世家的傳承者變成一位學養與思考并重的人,掌握著紫砂壺藝傳承中非常重要的一脈。

　　范偉群為了將“大生壺”繼續發揚光大創辦了范家壺莊,帶領著范家壺莊的紫砂匠人,全心投入紫砂藝術的創作研究,并潛心研究歷代先輩的紫砂珍品,深切感悟其藝術氣息,積極汲取傳統藝術的精髓。根據大生傳世的幾款精品,經過仔細研究學習和反復推敲,創作出“傳承篇--大生傳世精品系列”,其作品工藝精湛、質樸大氣、形神皆備,一舉獲得第五屆中國工藝美術大師精品博覽會金獎。

　　范氏家族幾代人與壺為伴,也因壺而與“世博”結緣。1909年,“大柿子壺”誕生于范大生之手。1910年,此壺參加了中國以官方名義舉辦的第一個國際性博覽會——南洋勸業會,并獲得了最高獎。百年之后,第41屆世界博覽會在上海舉辦,范偉群創作的“平安和諧壺”在世博會上成為世人關注的焦點。2010年上海世博會上,著名文化人王守明向“中非15國文化藝術交流”的非洲藝術家們鼎立推薦的就是兩把由范偉群制作的紫砂壺。

　　堅守“工匠精神”積極推廣紫砂文化

　　范偉群從事紫砂藝術創作以來,認真研究和努力創作,并積極推廣和弘揚紫砂文化。范偉群認為“工匠精神”的基本內涵包括敬業、精益、專注、創新等方面的內容,敬業是從業者基于對職業的敬畏和熱愛而產生的一種全身心投入的認認真真、盡職盡責的職業精神狀態。精益是精益求精,是從業者對每件產品、每道工序都凝神聚力、精益求精、追求極致的職業品質。紫砂行業的發展離不開紫砂匠人對“工匠精神”的堅守,范偉群也以此來嚴格要求自己,多年來精心制作的多件紫砂作品,造型別致、個性鮮明,被中央領導人選為國家級禮品。

　　此外,范偉群先后多次赴港澳地區和國內各大城市,進行紫砂壺藝的展示與紫砂文化的推廣。2004年、2005年,范偉群兩次赴韓舉辦紫砂壺藝展、紫砂壺藝演示會及紫砂壺藝愛好交流推廣會,得到了韓國壺友熱烈的歡迎和喜愛。兩次韓國行,使韓國大眾更深更廣的了解和認識了紫砂,為弘揚紫砂作出了積極的貢獻。
