上海美术家协会会员。1972年出生于上海，1998年毕业于上海大学美术学院油画专业，师从王劼音、金纪发。2001年毕业于上海大学美术学院油画研究生班。师从邱瑞明、徐芒耀、章德明。从1998年作为职业艺术家以来，作品在瑞士、荷兰、法国、韩国、日本等地展出。他的作品被公共机构、企业、以及私人收藏家收藏。最近的收藏记录是2014年3月纽约公共图书馆收藏了他的一幅版画《2008中国保安No.3》。现代艺术思潮的侵袭及各种美学观念的渗透，使得版画家们纷纷由单一的形态向多维方向发展，借助新材料、新媒介以及对新的版画技法的应用以追求更具个性化的艺术语言。晓申却依旧在他的黑白世界里一刀刀在木板上刻着“好人”，安安静静而乐此不疲。

吴晓申，生于七十年代，小时候肯定不少玩过诸如“好人坏人”之类的游戏。晓申给一次的画展取名《好人》，于是他刻刀下的所有人物都变成了好人，我们只能笑着被迫接受了这个“事实”。 在晓申营造的这个“乌托邦”式的好人世界里，所有人物都是象一幕幕悲喜剧的主角。人们在这些表情怪异荒诞的人物面前会构思着各种剧情式的问题，他们为什么是好人？他们是曾经的好人吗？他们是不是想成为好人…晓申对于这些生活着的人物只是安静地观察，并没有打扰他们，我们的所有疑问，晓申不会给出答案的。或许当我们真正闭上眼静心感受到这些身边熟悉和不熟悉的、大人物和小人物原来都是好人时，我们的内心是不是会泛起一阵久违的颤动。晓申对于现实的观察和解读无疑是精准的，现实中很多我们不愿触及的或已经遗忘了很久的痛处，他用 “好人”二字就都轻轻地抚平了。

在晓申的每幅作品前，我们既不需要驻足凝视，也没必要过多的去欣赏揣摩线条、刀法、构图之类，你只要经过，那一个个人物就像一个个具有魔力的章，瞬间就会在你的脑海里烙下痕迹，很难再抹去。晓申的作品不“好看”，但似乎离我很近，足以使我感动。
