ginza graphic gallery (ggg) is featuring an exhibition of works by Lu Jingren, a pioneering artist who has brought back to life the historic richness of China’s publishing culture and opened a path to new horizons in book design.
Lu Jingren was born in Shanghai in 1947. Weathering the raging social upheavals of his times, Lu, with his natural curiosity and driving initiative, strove steadily and diligently forward, ultimately contributing on a grand scale to the development of contemporary Chinese bookmaking culture. 
This exhibition offers visitors a look at some of Lu’s most exquisite books based on China’s diverse book creation methods, as well as a treasure trove of beautiful books reflecting Asian philosophies. All works are displayed together with Lu Jingren’s own detailed explanations.
