"They brought Icograda to Beijing"
Shenzhen, China
I was surprised to receive this by e-mail… today’s Shenzhen business paper has run a lead article about the back-story of Icograda’s initial introduction to China (back when Professor Yu Bingnan of Tsinghua University in Beijing and I served together on the 2001-2003 Icograda board). I just wish I could read what’s been written…
Five years ago, I penned a feature piece for Communication Arts entitled “No Sleeping Dragon” about the dawn of visual communication design in China, drawing on some of the early visits facilitated by Professor Yu. A PDF version (4 MB) of the article is available here.
