[About the "Japanese Art Direction Exhibition 2024"]
Founded in 1952, the Tokyo Art Directors Club (ADC) is currently made up of 85 of Japan's leading art directors. The annual open exhibition, "Japan Art Direction Exhibition," is held with all members as judges. The "ADC Award," selected here, is attracting attention both in Japan and overseas as an award that reflects the cutting-edge trends in Japanese advertising and graphic design.
This year, the winning works and works to be included in the yearbook were selected through a rigorous screening process by ADC members from approximately 6,000 submitted works that were announced, used or published between June 1, 2023 and May 31, 2024.
ggg will be showcasing these works ahead of the publication in May 2025 of ART DIRECTION JAPAN (formerly the ADC Yearbook), which will feature the award-winning and outstanding works.
