Ju Ming, born in 1938, is perhaps Taipei's most active and influential sculptor. In 1999, after twelve years of planning, he and his family opened the Ju Ming Museum and Sculpture Garden in the mountains outside of Taipei, covering 26 acres and encompassing ten distinct centers including museums, workshops, education centers, and a section devoted to the philosopy of Tai Chi.

More information on the artist and his museum can be found on Rio Imamura's blog Ju Ming Sculpture Garden
