Business Overview

The book label "paper company," which has been publishing art books since October 2020, will hold their first exhibition. The paper company has published a total of 12 titles, including exhibition pictorials, photo collections, and collections of works. In this exhibition, in addition to published books, documents such as draft manuscripts and bundle samples will be displayed together with the works. Such an approach can present the actual relationship between books and works, rather than viewing the form of publication as the final image output. Through this exhibition, we hope to provide an opportunity to update the future of publishing and the significance of art books together with artists and designers.
