Note du spécialiste

"Ju Ming's work projects a feeling of weight, as does the work of recent modern Japanese sculptors. Ju Ming's works also project a sense of movement, and this too our modern Japanese sculptors do. But none of our modern Japanese sculptors can do both of these things at the same time, as Ju Ming does". - Michiaki Kawakita, curator of the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, 1970s.
