Lot Essay

Ju Ming, who works in diverse range of mediums, including wood, bronze, stainless steel and Styrofoam, is an exemplary sculptural artist of the 20th century. He seamlessly incorporates the essence of his artistic and cultural heritage into his works. His profound 'Taichi' series is intrinsically linked to his physical and mental practice of Taichi, which he took up in the mid-1970s on the advice of mentor and fellow sculptor Yuyu Yang. The sculptures in the series capture the duality of Taichi exercises – their movements and their spirit – as well as their creative, energizing aspects.
