temporary exhibition

Graphic Trial 2013 represents an attempt to explore the relationship between graphic design and the art of printing in order to discover new forms of expression. Every year, artists on the cutting edge of graphic design experiment with different printing techniques to create groundbreaking works of graphic art for our Graphic Trial exhibitions.

This year marks the 8th Graphic Trial Exhibition, which features works by Koichi Sato, Hisashi Narita, Ren Takaya and Takuya Abe. Collaborating with them in using offset printing to push the limits of artistic expression were the printing directors at Toppan Printing.

Combining the visions of artists with the techniques of printers, the works of graphic art displayed together with the steps involved in their development enable the viewer to gain new insights into the art of printing.
