So I rushed into the &lt;a href="http://www.watanabe-hair.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Watanabe Hair Dressing&lt;/a&gt; in Harajuku Dori. &lt;br /&gt;Tommy does my hair and she is clearly the best hairdresser in Tokyo! Tommy worked in London for a few years so she can speak perfect English (Believe me, it is rare in Japan!). On top of that, she can do Western and Asian hair, cut, colour, high-light, perm, straight perm and everything.&lt;br /&gt;There are so many hair salons in Tokyo, yet very few good one. If you want to have "proper" hair done, go to see Tommy in Harajuku! &lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;Tommy on the stage! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBIoeLe95wI/AAAAAAAABx4/Gsme-0yQ0Fs/s1600/9626_154453557206_603562206_2587227_7959932_n.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBIoeLe95wI/AAAAAAAABx4/Gsme-0yQ0Fs/s320/9626_154453557206_603562206_2587227_7959932_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481488195407177474" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-3881195302950002468?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/3881195302950002468/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=3881195302950002468' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3881195302950002468'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3881195302950002468'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/06/tommy-at-watanabe-hair-dressing.html' title='Tommy at Watanabe Hair Dressing'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBIjOAoBb_I/AAAAAAAABxw/ur_BxRgY0xw/s72-c/001.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-8731621175780732990</id><published>2010-06-10T22:08:00.013+09:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T22:36:06.723+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>原美術館 / Hara Museum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI1lPGXIxI/AAAAAAAAByA/YzBe9226_II/s1600/IMG_0383.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI1lPGXIxI/AAAAAAAAByA/YzBe9226_II/s400/IMG_0383.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481502610287960850" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ウィリアム・エグルストンの「パリー東京」展を見に&lt;a href="http://www.haramuseum.or.jp/generalTop.html" target="_blank"&gt;原美術館&lt;/a&gt;まで足をのばしました。展覧会は残念ながら私の好みではなかったのですが、ここの美術館はステキです。品川じゃなければ、しかも駅から徒歩15分もかからなければ、もっと頻繁に通っていたことでしょう。&lt;br /&gt;特に、2階にあるインスタレーション、宮島達夫さんの「時の連鎖」の部屋は圧巻！何度でもぐるぐるまわりたくなります。お庭のインスタレーションもステキ。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went to see William Eggleston's "Paris -Tokyo" exhibition at the &lt;a href="http://www.haramuseum.or.jp/generalTop.html" target="_blank"&gt;Hara Museum&lt;/a&gt;. His photographs were not my cup of tea but I like this museum. If it wasn't in Shinagawa, or it wasn't so far away from the station, I would have come here more often.&lt;br /&gt;My favourite artwork in the museum is "Time Link", a room  by Tatsuo Miyajima on the 2nd floor. The sculptures in the garden are also exiting.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;ソル ルウィット「不完全な立方体」&lt;br /&gt;Sol lewitt  "Incomplete Cube" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI15txmG0I/AAAAAAAAByI/Rq07Kp53eWo/s1600/IMG_0388.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI15txmG0I/AAAAAAAAByI/Rq07Kp53eWo/s400/IMG_0388.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481502962119744322" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;イサム ノグチ「物見台」&lt;br /&gt;Isamu Noguchi "Pylon"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI2AkEZGyI/AAAAAAAAByQ/CRCQ5SgWg_k/s1600/IMG_0384.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI2AkEZGyI/AAAAAAAAByQ/CRCQ5SgWg_k/s400/IMG_0384.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481503079773313826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;ジャン＝ピエール レイノー 「ゼロの空間」&lt;br /&gt;Jean-Pierre Raynaud "L'espace Zero"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI35epcfwI/AAAAAAAAByg/NbtALZKTRZw/s1600/IMG_0404.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI35epcfwI/AAAAAAAAByg/NbtALZKTRZw/s320/IMG_0404.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481505157082283778" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8731621175780732990?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8731621175780732990/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8731621175780732990' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8731621175780732990'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8731621175780732990'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/06/hara-museum.html' title='原美術館 / Hara Museum'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TBI1lPGXIxI/AAAAAAAAByA/YzBe9226_II/s72-c/IMG_0383.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-3855315541143543377</id><published>2010-05-30T13:30:00.009+09:00</published><updated>2010-05-30T14:26:18.728+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>清澄白河 / Kiyosumi Shirakawa</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TAHr3zynZEI/AAAAAAAABxo/W0ZsDLKDtQI/s1600/IMG_7222.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TAHr3zynZEI/AAAAAAAABxo/W0ZsDLKDtQI/s320/IMG_7222.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5476917965887071298" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;清澄白河の&lt;a href="http://www.tomiokoyamagallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;小山登美夫ギャラリー&lt;/a&gt;では奈良美智の「セラミック・ワーク」展が開催中。奈良さん人気はやっぱりすごいです。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.takaishiigallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Taka Ishii Gallery&lt;/a&gt;では荒木 経惟の「古希ノ写真」展が。レイディ・ガガが被写体になった作品など、アラーキーの世界が炸裂してました。時代をとらえるスピード感とか、写真を撮る瞬発力とか、勢いを感じました。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;Yoshitomo Nara's "ceramic works" exhibition is held at the &lt;a href="http://www.tomiokoyamagallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Tomio Koyama Gallery&lt;/a&gt; in Kiyosumi Shirakawa. Nara is really poplar, especially among women in Japan. I think his innocent-looking girl motif reflects Japanese immature kawaii culture well. &lt;br /&gt;At the &lt;a href="http://www.takaishiigallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Taka Ishii Gallery&lt;/a&gt;, photographer Araki's exhibition is on and his recent works including Lady Gaga's shots are on display. Araki has an eye for catching the spirit of the times and I could really feel explosiveness and speed from his work.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tomiokoyamagallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Tomio Koyama Gallery&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.shugoarts.com/jp" target="_blank"&gt;SHUGO ARTS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zenshi.com/" target="_blank"&gt;ZENSHI&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.takaishiigallery.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Taka Ishii Gallery&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hiromiyoshii.com/" target="_blank"&gt;hiromi yoshii&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.miyakefineart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;MIYAKE FINE ART&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.arataniurano.com/" target="_blank"&gt;ARATANI URANO&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-3855315541143543377?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/3855315541143543377/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=3855315541143543377' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3855315541143543377'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3855315541143543377'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/05/kiyosumi-shirakawa.html' title='清澄白河 / Kiyosumi Shirakawa'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TAHr3zynZEI/AAAAAAAABxo/W0ZsDLKDtQI/s72-c/IMG_7222.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-6975841471382235300</id><published>2010-05-29T10:17:00.018+09:00</published><updated>2010-05-29T11:50:25.593+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>東京国立近代美術館 / MOMAT</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TABtsIbnSFI/AAAAAAAABw4/A92MJPZfGrc/s1600/IMG_0360.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TABtsIbnSFI/AAAAAAAABw4/A92MJPZfGrc/s400/IMG_0360.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5476497751827499090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;皇居のそばにある&lt;a href="http://www.momat.go.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;東京国立近代美術館&lt;/a&gt;で開催中の&lt;a href="http://www.momat.go.jp/Honkan/where_is_architecture/work_in_progress/" target="_blank"&gt;建築はどこにあるの？7つのインスタレーション展&lt;/a&gt;。普段、建物という実用的なもの(？)をつくっている建築家さんによるインスタレーション。7人の建築家たちがそれぞれ何を大切にしてるのか、とか、美意識的なものが空間に表現されていて、建築模型の展示とは違った面白さがありました。&lt;br /&gt;工芸館の「アール・デコ時代の工芸とデザイン」展も良かったです。特に、1908年に三越のデザイナーとなり、日本のグラフィックデザインの先駆者となった杉浦非水のポスターは、今見てもすごくかっこよかったです。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;"Where is Architecture? Seven Installations by Japanese Architects" exhibition is held at &lt;a href="http://www.momat.go.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;MOMAT&lt;/a&gt;, the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo. The installation work by seven architects are presenting their aesthetic view or their concerns for architecture. It was interesting to see different side of architects from practical buildings.&lt;br /&gt;"Modern Crafts and Design in the Art Deco Period" exhibition held at the Craft and Design department was also good. I thought posters and graphics by Hisui Sugiura who worked as a designer for Mitsukoshi department store since 1908 were still chic and voguish today. &lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;中村竜治 / Ryuji Nakamura&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/TABuAPFbkqI/AAAAAAAABxA/PsSW1Qf8U04/s1600/IMG_0357.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Surprisingly, this eye ball moves and changes its color.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S-ZVRJl6saI/AAAAAAAABwA/mEBlw9oYrG8/s1600/IMG_1890.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S-ZVRJl6saI/AAAAAAAABwA/mEBlw9oYrG8/s320/IMG_1890.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469152550609138082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-935894220064130584?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/935894220064130584/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=935894220064130584' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/935894220064130584'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/935894220064130584'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/05/eye-of-shinjuku.html' title='新宿の目 / The eye of Shinjuku'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S-ZVMiQnuqI/AAAAAAAABv4/GMbh_cYpd7o/s72-c/IMG_1892.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-6556779449644507467</id><published>2010-05-08T14:46:00.006+09:00</published><updated>2010-05-09T15:21:04.668+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>Tokyo Sky Tree</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S-ZMRra0UAI/AAAAAAAABvo/ZBklGRr4fF8/s1600/IMG_1899.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S-ZMRra0UAI/AAAAAAAABvo/ZBklGRr4fF8/s400/IMG_1899.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469142664084738050" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;日に日に伸びていく&lt;a href="http://www.tokyo-skytree.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;東京スカイツリー&lt;/a&gt;。あの辺りは周りに高い建物がない分、ひときわ目立ちます。現時点で368m、日本一高い建物です。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tokyo-skytree.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Tokyo Sky Tree&lt;/a&gt; is growing day by day.

A big statue of Amida and dozens of  Unchu Bosatsu statue are displyed  inside of the main building. The building was built to represent the Pure Land of the Buddha, heaven. Today the interior of the temple has lost its colour, but it used to be bright colourful and sparkling gold.&lt;br /&gt;By the way, it is freexin in the winter in Kyoto...&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S3VEA6CccbI/AAAAAAAABsY/KUNAX-iOYMw/s1600-h/IMG_1460.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

It was 200m tall a couple months ago, today it is 289m. It will be 634m when its completed.&lt;br /&gt;The construction of the tower is influenced by Japanese traditional architectural method such as "sori" and "mukumi" and the design is inspired by the shape of a Japanese sword. Without any explanation, it is simply beautiful. There hasn't been much landmark is built in Tokyo for a long time so this is a good opportunity to make the city more interesting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4pO9e_6I/AAAAAAAABq4/RAx5tLspmQM/s1600-h/IMG_0168.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4pO9e_6I/AAAAAAAABq4/RAx5tLspmQM/s320/IMG_0168.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433303387743387554" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4foF79QI/AAAAAAAABqw/RqhplK2xDfY/s1600-h/IMG_0156.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4foF79QI/AAAAAAAABqw/RqhplK2xDfY/s320/IMG_0156.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433303222691034370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4fQyV5yI/AAAAAAAABqo/iEEZzw_2VoU/s1600-h/IMG_1310.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4fQyV5yI/AAAAAAAABqo/iEEZzw_2VoU/s320/IMG_1310.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433303216434833186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8520843886103925509?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8520843886103925509/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8520843886103925509' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8520843886103925509'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8520843886103925509'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/02/tokyo-sky-tree.html' title='Tokyo Sky Tree'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2b4Y7AIVaI/AAAAAAAABqg/9aj9tCbtquU/s72-c/IMG_0164.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-4081050693856642329</id><published>2010-01-10T18:22:00.004+09:00</published><updated>2010-02-12T21:47:58.994+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='London'/><title type='text'>Day 10: London</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2aeggDaI9I/AAAAAAAABpo/7Wo5ydsiU50/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2aeggDaI9I/AAAAAAAABpo/7Wo5ydsiU50/s320/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433204281666315218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ロンドン最終日は、ウェルカムコレクションと、ショーディッチへ。&lt;br /&gt;The last day in London, I went to Wellcome Collection and Shoreditch.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wellcomecollection.org/" target="_blank"&gt;ウェルカムコレクション&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;玄関ではゴームリー像がお出迎え。なんともいえない微妙な展示作品と空間でした。こういう科学的なものに、いかに興味を持ってもらえるような面白い展示をするかというところで、ものすごく工夫されていました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wellcomecollection.org/" target="_blank"&gt;Wellcome Collection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The statue by Antony Gormly greeted us at the entrance.

It is a huge box where visitors experience the darkness. It was fascinating to see floor mark made by Doris Salcedo's work of crack.&lt;br /&gt;It is amazing that the entry for permanent exhibition is free – with this quantity and quality of collection! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S2aK3eaXQdI/AAAAAAAABnA/Dkam2i20feA/s1600-h/IMG_1074.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

We were asked to board at scheduled time but the plane couldn't take off. We sat on the plane for two hours with complimentary wine, it was enough to make me drunk. However, we were lucky to be given accommodation with dinner for free (I didn't have any Swiss francs left!) and to be rebooked to fly with Swiss Air to London City Airport in early next morning.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8378909550668381402?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8378909550668381402/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8378909550668381402' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8378909550668381402'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8378909550668381402'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2010/01/day-6-basel.html' title='Day 6: Basel'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1hcwiPE_MI/AAAAAAAABkQ/UTyKhvYYeZg/s72-c/IMG_0987.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-6551856769207915039</id><published>2010-01-05T21:02:00.041+09:00</published><updated>2010-01-21T23:52:14.671+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Basel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><title type='text'>Day 5: Basel</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1hCs9l8x_I/AAAAAAAABfo/_FTwRYm0tCg/s1600-h/IMG_0807.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1hCs9l8x_I/AAAAAAAABfo/_FTwRYm0tCg/s320/IMG_0807.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429162691010545650" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ドイツとフランスの国境にあるスイスのバーゼル。空港を出るときも、フランス側の出口とスイス側の出口があって、それぞれで雰囲気が違うのも面白い。基本ドイツ語みたいだけど、場所（人？）によってはフランス語も英語もありです。&lt;br /&gt;そして、この街には信号がほとんどありません。それでもちゃんと機能しているのがすごい。街はどこでもトラムで移動できるのでとても便利でした。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Swiss city Basel is located on the border of Germany and France. In the airport, they even have two exit, one for Swiss  and one for France. I think  Germany is their official language but a lot of people speak French and English, maybe more...&lt;br /&gt;I was really surprised that there is no traffic light on the streets, even in the center of Basel. But everything works and pedestrians can cross the road without any problem – it wouldn't be possible in Japan!

Exhibition of Brazilian design duo Campana brothers were on.&lt;br /&gt;In the site of the museum, there are buildings by Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid and Tadao Ando. The architect tour is available at 11:00, 13:00 and 15:00 and visitors can go inside of those buildings to explore.

by Mies van der Rohe. On the ground floor, there was an exhibition by photographer &lt;a href="http://www.thomasdemand.de/" target="_blank"&gt;Thomas Demand&lt;/a&gt;, and the exhibition downstairs was featured a huge collection from Surrealism to Abstract Expressionism.

&lt;br /&gt;これまた特大の現代美術館。フロントから見ると分からないけれど、数百メートルほどの長いスペースが延々と奥に伸びています。もと駅だった建物を改装していて、その名残が感じられるのも素敵。&lt;br /&gt;美術館の中の作品は基本的に写真撮影OKというのも、まあびっくり。&lt;br /&gt;入ってすぐの巨大スペースにデュシャンの車輪があるのが粋ですね。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.smb.museum/smb/hbf/text.php" target="_blank"&gt;Hamburger Bahnhof Museum&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;This is a huge museum. It doesn't look so big from outside but at the back it has a few hundred meter long  annexed building. The building used to be a station, which has unique feeling.&lt;br /&gt;I loved the way Duchamp's Bicycle Wheel installed in the huge hall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XHn4AGa9I/AAAAAAAABdI/ibQqmXOzjmA/s1600-h/IMG_0622.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XHn4AGa9I/AAAAAAAABdI/ibQqmXOzjmA/s320/IMG_0622.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428464413726632914" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XHuFcFV2I/AAAAAAAABdQ/Ub1EuD2HbMQ/s1600-h/IMG_0666.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XHuFcFV2I/AAAAAAAABdQ/Ub1EuD2HbMQ/s320/IMG_0666.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428464520412878690" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XIPlRoqQI/AAAAAAAABdo/r3f62CdC6Ac/s1600-h/IMG_0625.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XIPlRoqQI/AAAAAAAABdo/r3f62CdC6Ac/s320/IMG_0625.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428465095894673666" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XKjWEO_AI/AAAAAAAABdw/5x8rJPbj2Yk/s1600-h/IMG_0634.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XKjWEO_AI/AAAAAAAABdw/5x8rJPbj2Yk/s320/IMG_0634.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428467634432572418" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XH1IC44zI/AAAAAAAABdY/lzevFitOl8k/s1600-h/IMG_0693.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/S1XH1IC44zI/AAAAAAAABdY/lzevFitOl8k/s320/IMG_0693.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428464641371595570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;ベルリン中央駅&lt;br /&gt;すごく良いシステムだと思ったのが、ベルリンの電車。改札口がないのです。&lt;br /&gt;Berlin Hauptbahnhof&lt;br /&gt;There is no ticket gate in any Berlin station.

It is the hometown of Volkswagen and there is a huge VW factory by the station. The town is famous for &lt;a href="http://www.autostadt.de/portal/site/www/" target="_blank"&gt;Autostadt&lt;/a&gt;, car theme park by Volkswagen Group.

Turrell's gigantic installation had more volume and depth compare to his work in Naoshima. I was stunned.

The building throws us off balance - walls are sloped inwards or outwards. I loved all hands-on exhibits.&lt;br /&gt;A child of one blue eyed parent and one brown eyed parent has a 50% chance of being brown eyed, 37.5% green and 12.5% blue.

I'm not a particularly big fan of Japanese tea culture but wanted to check out the new building designed by Kengo Kuma.&lt;br /&gt;I was surprised by the museum garden. Behind the museum, there is a huge Japanese garden where visitors can walk around. There are a few tea houses including the boat which has tea room on the pond.

stands near Imperial Palace. The museum consists of two buildings, Art Museum and Craft Gallery. This Craft Gallery was built in 1910 and was renovated as a museum in the 1970s by Yoshiro Taniguchi, father of Yoshio Taniguchi who designed the new MOMA building in NY.&lt;br /&gt;"The Power of Decoration" exhibition is on at the moment focusing on young Japanese artists. It was interesting as a contemporary art exhibition.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-6447560167203993686?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/6447560167203993686/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=6447560167203993686' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6447560167203993686'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6447560167203993686'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/12/momat.html' title='東京国立近代美術館 / MOMAT'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sy296JpHxbI/AAAAAAAABXQ/edxLO0HCY4A/s72-c/IMG_0270.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-2035194406613261721</id><published>2009-12-16T00:47:00.022+09:00</published><updated>2009-12-20T15:55:08.553+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>Mori Museum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyevvotzMwI/AAAAAAAABW4/0NqcIifLjTw/s1600-h/IMG_0423.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyevvotzMwI/AAAAAAAABW4/0NqcIifLjTw/s320/IMG_0423.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415490309854540546" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Syevzmd2cII/AAAAAAAABXA/MTNd5SlAfP4/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Syevzmd2cII/AAAAAAAABXA/MTNd5SlAfP4/s200/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415490377970249858" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mori.art.museum/jp/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;森美術館&lt;/a&gt;では「医学と芸術展」が開催中。医学という視点から芸術をとらえた展覧会で、中世の解剖学的な絵からDNA操作によって生まれた緑に光るウサギまで、奥が深い。&lt;br /&gt;展覧会のテーマ設定としては面白かったけれど、うーむ。レオナルド・ダ・ヴィンチが描いた解剖図が芸術なのか、というと私はそうではないと思うし、資料として見るべき作品が多くてそれは確かにすごいと思うけれど、何かを見て感動したという気持ちに私はなれなかったです。&lt;br /&gt;同時に開催されているテレルヴォ・カルレイネンとオリヴァー・コフタ＝カルレイネンの「不平の合唱団」プロジェクトは、ヘルシンキ、シンガポール、東京などの都市で人々が不平不満を合唱している様子を映像にしたもの。でも悲壮感のただようものではなく、力強くコミカルに歌い上げているから、クスッと笑えました。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went to see the "Medicine and Art" exhibition at &lt;a href="http://www.mori.art.museum/jp/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;Mori Museum&lt;/a&gt;. There were various works on display raging from anatomical charts from the middle ages to a documentary film about a genetically modified rabbit that glows green under certain light. &lt;br /&gt;It was an interesting theme for the exhibition but the anatomical drawings of Leonardo da Vinci aren't art in my opinion. There were so many interesting medical data and materials in the exhibition, however, a lot of exhibits didn't move me much.&lt;br /&gt;The film “Complaints Choir” by Tellervo Kalleinen and Oliver Kochta-Kalleinen was also shown. Local people in Helsinki, Singapore and Tokyo sang a song about their complaints as a choir. People complained about small sweet things, it was quite funny.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-2035194406613261721?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/2035194406613261721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=2035194406613261721' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2035194406613261721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2035194406613261721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/12/mori-museum.html' title='Mori Museum'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyevvotzMwI/AAAAAAAABW4/0NqcIifLjTw/s72-c/IMG_0423.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-6634112584749109670</id><published>2009-12-14T23:42:00.009+09:00</published><updated>2009-12-20T15:52:23.821+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>歌舞伎 / Kabuki</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyegYtliJiI/AAAAAAAABWo/1xUkUr2OjFg/s1600-h/IMG_0267.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyegYtliJiI/AAAAAAAABWo/1xUkUr2OjFg/s320/IMG_0267.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415473423350638114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;今日は銀座の&lt;a href="http://www.kabuki-za.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;歌舞伎座&lt;/a&gt;へ。かなり昔に学校の社会見学で鑑賞して以来、10数年ぶりの歌舞伎。その時は激しく眠ってしまった記憶がありますが、歳をとって見てみると「歌舞伎ってこんなに面白かったんだ！」と再発見。&lt;br /&gt;「十二月大歌舞伎」は3つのパートに分かれていて、最初は古典的ないわゆる”歌舞伎”、次は踊りが中心、そして最後は野田秀樹作・演出の「野田版鼠小僧」という現代的な演目です。（こんな説明の仕方でいいのかな？）計4時間ほどでしたが、あっという間でした。&lt;br /&gt;「野田版鼠小僧」は舞台のセットや演出がとにかくスペクタクル。伝統を保っていながらそれだけにおさまらず、現代の笑いや感性に響くもので、想像していた堅苦しい歌舞伎とは全く違いました。&lt;br /&gt;「一幕見席」という当日券があるので、自分の見たい演目だけ見るのもOK。敷居が高いと勝手に思っていたけど、歌舞伎って意外に身近なものなんですね。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went to see &lt;a href="http://www.kabuki-za.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;kabuki&lt;/a&gt;. The last time I saw kabuki was more than 10 years ago as a part of a school event. I remember falling asleep during the play back then but this time, I am mature enough to appreciate it!&lt;br /&gt;This month's performance has three  parts. The first part is traditional kabuki, then dance performance, and the last part is contemporary kabuki "The Story of the Thief Nezumi Kozo" directed by Hideki Noda. "Nezumi Kozo" was so spectacular – an amazing stage set and effects. It goes for 4 hours in total but time goes so quick!&lt;br /&gt;Audio guides that explain the performance in English are available. Some tickets are sold on the day of the performance at a good price.

The two photographers works were displayed in the same room au that we can compare them.&lt;br /&gt;I really really love Cartier-Bresson's photos.  They are witty and perfectly composed as well as capturing the "The Decisive Moment". For me, they are the most beautiful photos and the perfect photos...&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;（写真は &lt;a href="http://www.magnumphotos.com/Archive/C.aspx?VP=XSpecific_MAG.StaticPage_VPage&amp;SP=photographers_list&amp;l1=0&amp;XXAPXX=SubPanel10" target="_blank"&gt;Magnum Photo&lt;/a&gt;より）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-6257541369971138823?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/6257541369971138823/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=6257541369971138823' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6257541369971138823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6257541369971138823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/12/museum-of-photography.html' title='写美 / Museum of Photography'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SyeS75CgcOI/AAAAAAAABWg/vCCXpsPn6CM/s72-c/PAR19082.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-7497784111791763697</id><published>2009-11-28T22:17:00.021+09:00</published><updated>2009-11-29T00:40:38.935+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><title type='text'>MOT</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SxEi7q-sk6I/AAAAAAAABWQ/tdFn_S4gggs/s1600/IMG_0256.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SxEi7q-sk6I/AAAAAAAABWQ/tdFn_S4gggs/s320/IMG_0256.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409143035993559970" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mot-art-museum.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;東京都現代美術館&lt;/a&gt;ではドイツのアーティスト「レベッカ・ホルン展」と、17世紀以降のハイ・ファッションに焦点をあてた「ラグジュアリー：ファッションの欲望」展が開催中です。妹島和世によるコム・デ・ギャルソンの洋服のインスタレーションや、スウェーデンのファッションの展示もあって、とにかく盛りだくさん。&lt;br /&gt;特に私がいいなと思ったのが「レベッカ・ホルン展」。何が起こるかワクワクしながら、色んな仕掛けがある作品の前にたたずむことができます。映像作品はけっこう長かった(1時間くらいのものが何本か上映されてました)ので、とても全部は見れなかったのが心残り。全部を楽しもうと思うと丸一日、必要ですな。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went to see "Rebecca Horn" exhibition and "Luxuary" fashion exhibition at &lt;a href="http://www.mot-art-museum.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;MOT&lt;/a&gt; today. The installation of Comme des Garçon dresses by Kazuyo Sejima at the big atrium and  mannequin display by young  Swedish fashion designers are also held. There were so much to see!&lt;br /&gt;I really liked "Rebecca Horn" exhibition. It was exiting to see things happening in her artworks which had tricky mechanism. I stood in front of them for ages to find out the surprise. Her films were shown as well but they were quite long, each of them are over an hour, so it was shame that I couldn't see them all...

is "a Yokohama City project designed to revitalize the heart of the city by utilizing refurbished historical city buildings for the development of contemporary culture and the arts." I didn't quite understand what it meant, but it is basically a museum-like place with exhibition space, a cafe/bar and a shop. &lt;br /&gt;Till the end of November, &lt;a href="http://ifamy.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;CREAM&lt;/a&gt;, the International Festival for Arts and Media Yokohama 2009, is held at the site. A lot of short films were shown in the huge ex-warehouse space.&lt;br /&gt;BankART 1929 is a municipal project but is really well organized. The exhibition space holds various exhibitions and events that make locals feel familiar to art and the site as well as  supporting artists, nicely designed cafe/bar opens till late at night so locals can drop n for a drink, and the shop provides many art related bilingual books published by the project. &lt;br /&gt;This place has a good vive.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-5900638910299517233?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/5900638910299517233/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=5900638910299517233' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/5900638910299517233'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/5900638910299517233'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/11/bankart-1929.html' title='BankART 1929'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SwAZ--Owi0I/AAAAAAAABV4/ShNYbCbV3MM/s72-c/IMG_0242.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-1020031799773859958</id><published>2009-11-01T00:00:00.027+09:00</published><updated>2009-11-01T00:07:42.715+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>100% Design Tokyo 2009</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suw5pZCWm8I/AAAAAAAABVg/HxtiudqHO4c/s1600-h/IMG_0147.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suw5pZCWm8I/AAAAAAAABVg/HxtiudqHO4c/s320/IMG_0147.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398753436568558530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suw8s2bDgBI/AAAAAAAABVw/4mFHCLtq6so/s1600-h/IMG_0145.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suw8s2bDgBI/AAAAAAAABVw/4mFHCLtq6so/s200/IMG_0145.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398756794531282962" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;今年はまだ色づいていない外苑前の銀杏並木を通り抜け、&lt;a href="http://www.100percentdesign.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;100% Design Tokyo&lt;/a&gt;へ。ここは展示している量がものすごい。来場者の数もすごくてチケット売り場には大行列ができているので、行く人は覚悟が必要です。&lt;br /&gt;オーストリアをはじめとする海外のデザイナー、日本の家電メーカーや伝統工芸の工場、大学生の作品まで本当に幅広いプロダクトが展示されていました。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.100percentdesign.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;100% Design Tokyo&lt;/a&gt; is a huge site, there are so many products exhibited.

When I first heard about the exhibition, I thought it would be all about Chinese art but it was actually contemporary art.&lt;br /&gt;Ai Wei Wei's installations reminded me a lot about minimal art, but he takes a Chinese perspective or design/craft method and  alters it. I thought it is similar to  when you live abroad, you try to fit into the culture by altering yourself. Ai Wei Wei is good at reinterpreting things.&lt;br /&gt;There is a documentary film about an art project called "Fairytail" which is about taking 1001 Chinese people to Kassel, Germany. It shown one society consists on so many different opinions and it was fascinating to see.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;シャンデリア /Chandelier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suml8LvVuDI/AAAAAAAABUY/fAcwImQ1JAE/s1600-h/IMG_0211.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Suml8LvVuDI/AAAAAAAABUY/fAcwImQ1JAE/s320/IMG_0211.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398028081742329906" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;茶の家 /  The Tea House&lt;br /&gt;圧縮されたプーアール茶の葉でできた家。良いかおりでした。&lt;br /&gt;The house and the carpet is made of compressed tea leaves.

The city has a reputation for food and business, and it's Japan's second city, however, there is a lot more to this place - including great architecture, well-designed products and interiors and excellent shops. &lt;br /&gt;A lot of people go to Osaka on the way to Kyoto and have trouble finding anything amazing - until now there hasn't been a guide book about the real Osaka. &lt;br /&gt;For those who want to check out cool Osaka as well as sight seeing sites, this guide book is the one to get!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-2710714392902135715?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/2710714392902135715/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=2710714392902135715' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2710714392902135715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2710714392902135715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/10/wallpaper-city-guide-osaka.html' title='Wallpaper City Guide OSAKA'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Stq39Pexh5I/AAAAAAAABUA/iMlND_u3_kI/s72-c/IMG_0234.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-8114776193036363616</id><published>2009-10-12T19:07:00.012+09:00</published><updated>2009-10-12T20:41:01.906+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>戸倉三山 / Tokura 3-mountain range</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBFaIBPUI/AAAAAAAABTg/m-9qBlRhuwk/s1600-h/IMG_0159.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBFaIBPUI/AAAAAAAABTg/m-9qBlRhuwk/s320/IMG_0159.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391654371316546882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBJubOypI/AAAAAAAABTo/IXJ-JBTWIa8/s1600-h/IMG_0148.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBJubOypI/AAAAAAAABTo/IXJ-JBTWIa8/s200/IMG_0148.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391654445485312658" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;今日は奥多摩の臼杵山(うすぎさん)・市道山(いちみちやま)・刈寄山(かりよりやま)からなる戸倉三山+今熊山(いまくまさん)へハイキング。約6時間で制覇。高尾山と違い、すれ違う人もまばらでした。&lt;br /&gt;下調べでは「アップダウンが多いが展望は良くない」ということだったんだけど、特に荷子田峠〜臼杵山〜市道山までは山登り初心者にとっては”急勾配”の部類に入るルートです。標識もあまりないので「本当にここであってるの？」と疑いながら突き進みました。&lt;br /&gt;市道山〜刈寄山の間ではトレイルのすぐ側で、巣穴で眠る熊を発見！穴があったので「こういう所に熊がいるんだよね〜」と知ったかぶりをしたら、本当にいた！それからは何を見ても「熊？」と疑心暗鬼で、鳥の物音を聞いては叫び、蛇を見ては叫び・・・。東京にも熊はいるんですね・・・。今度からは、熊よけの鈴を持とうと思いました。色々とハードルは高かったけれど、冒険気分が味わえて楽しい、というか充実したハイキングでした。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBOfFsRZI/AAAAAAAABTw/VEHwupstEQU/s1600-h/IMG_0156.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBOfFsRZI/AAAAAAAABTw/VEHwupstEQU/s200/IMG_0156.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391654527267784082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went hiking in the Tokura mountain range (Mt.Usugi, Mt.Ichimichi and Mt.Kariyori) and Mt.Imakuma. It took 6 hours to complete. And there weren't many people on the way - we saw only 10 hikers.&lt;br /&gt;The  trails were said to involve "a lot of ups and downs but not very good views", however, especially the trails between Mt.Usugi and Mt.Ichimichi were actually very steep. There weren't many signposts - almost none in English - so I wasn't sure if I was going the right way.&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, the highlight of today was seeing a bear (maybe bears) sleeping in their den! I saw a hole at the side of the trail and I joked "there could be a bear inside" and when looked inside, there was a bear! I got so scared and after that, I was spooked by every noise I heard... It come to me a big surprised to learn there are bears in Tokyo!!! I have to get more prepared for it next time.&lt;br /&gt;It was an enjoyable hike...&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;JR五日市線 武蔵五日市→西東京バスで荷子田→荷子田峠→臼杵山→市道山→刈寄山→今熊山→バス停・今熊山口→JR 武蔵五日市&lt;br /&gt;JR Itsukaichi line "Musashiitsuka station" - to "Nikota" by bus - Nikota ridge - Mt.Usugi - Mt.Ichimichi - Mt.Kariyori - Mt.Imakuma - "Imakumasanguchi" bus stop - "Musashiitsuka station"&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8114776193036363616?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8114776193036363616/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8114776193036363616' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8114776193036363616'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8114776193036363616'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/10/tokura-3-mountain-range.html' title='戸倉三山 / Tokura 3-mountain range'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/StMBFaIBPUI/AAAAAAAABTg/m-9qBlRhuwk/s72-c/IMG_0159.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-2754469245984586099</id><published>2009-08-25T22:18:00.012+09:00</published><updated>2009-08-27T16:30:15.436+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Osaka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><title type='text'>光の教会 / The Church of The Light</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SpPlL-JDwtI/AAAAAAAABS4/54Z_AQywmGM/s1600-h/IMG_5246.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SpPlL-JDwtI/AAAAAAAABS4/54Z_AQywmGM/s320/IMG_5246.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373890774205448914" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;大阪・茨木にある安藤忠雄建築・&lt;a href="http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~nv3n-krkm/" target="_blank"&gt;光の教会&lt;/a&gt;。私が行ったの2年前の夏は、心付けを残せば自由に見学できたんだけど、今は事前に予約が必要みたいです。JR茨木駅からさらにバス、そして住宅地のど真ん中にある小さな教会。&lt;br /&gt;外から見るとごく普通のコンクリートのブロックだけど、一歩中に足を踏み入れると、十字架のかたちをした窓ガラスから光が差し込んだ室内には圧倒的な存在感と、厳かな空気が漂っています。&lt;br /&gt;今月号のCasa Brutusが安藤さん特集で、付録で付いていたDVDをついさっき見て、この教会のことを思い出しました。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~nv3n-krkm/" target="_blank"&gt;The Church of The Light&lt;/a&gt; must be the one of the most famous churches in Japan. It is a short bus ride from Ibaraki Station, Osaka. Visitors have to book in advance to see inside.&lt;br /&gt;It is just a small concrete building from outside but when you go in, it is another world. The light shone into the room through the cross shaped window and it feels so sublime (even though I am not Christian...).&lt;br /&gt;I was watching DVD about Ando, which came with this month's Casa Brutus magazine. And it reminded me of this church.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SpPlkW2Wa_I/AAAAAAAABTY/GJhsLhff9LI/s1600-h/IMG_5251.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

The exhibition was composed for kids who are on summer holiday in Japan. And it was surprisingly good.&lt;br /&gt;The paintings such as landscapes, still lifes or ukiyoe were nothing special but I was amazed by how they were presented. There are questions on the panels hung next to the paintings asking "Which animal is hiding in this landscape?" or "What can you hear from this painting?" to provoke kid's interest. I normally hate the immatureness of Japanese culture but this exhibition actually works as art education for kids and maybe for adults, too. &lt;br /&gt;I definitely recommend families visit here.

I'm not an architect so couldn't understand the technical side of the exhibition. But the films about those architects, Kikutake's office in 1950's or SANAA shaping Kanazawa 21st Century Museum were fascinating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hiromiyoshii.com/" target="_blank"&gt;hiromi yoshii&lt;/a&gt; gallery also held a display of models made by upcoming architects.

Artists renovated old houses and installed their works in them.&lt;br /&gt;James Turrell's "Minami Dera" (pictured above) was the first to make me my appreciate the art. I visited the house again and was as amazing as I remembered. It was shame that now we have only 15mins to spend inside in order to deal with many visitors. It was more relaxed three years ago.&lt;br /&gt;To visit Rei Naito's "Ginza", visitors have to make an appointment. I rang them on the day to see if it was possible to have a look and luckily, they had a cancellation! Only one person is allowed to go in the house and spend 15mins in there. I was surprised that I saw more and more things as the time goes.&lt;br /&gt;I loved all the houses! It is about experience not only viewing.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;千住博『石橋』&lt;br /&gt;Hiroshi Senju "Ishibashi"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SoWRh619UzI/AAAAAAAABQE/fuVfg1rUUKI/s1600-h/IMG_9701.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

A lot of art projects and artworks are being installed for &lt;a href="http://setouchi-artfest.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Setouchi Art Festival 2010&lt;/a&gt;. Around 350,000 people visited this tiny island last year.&lt;br /&gt;This was my second visit – I was there 3 years ago, but some artworks had to be removed due to an impending typhoon back then. So this time, I was able to visit the artworks I couldn't see last time as well as some new ones.&lt;br /&gt;I hired a bicycle at the ferry terminal (¥500/day). Electric bicycles are available (¥2000/day) but they were all taken. It was fun but a hard job cycling under 30C sunshine...&lt;br /&gt;My course was:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.chichu.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Chichu Art Museum&lt;/a&gt;→Artworks around Benesse House→House Project&lt;br /&gt;I had half a day only this time so I had to rush a little. I'll go back there properly for the 2010 art festival!&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;草間彌生『赤かぼちゃ』&lt;br /&gt;Yayoi Kusama "Red Pumpkin"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SoWBC5b8QlI/AAAAAAAABP0/g90CGRDl9QM/s1600-h/IMG_9735.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

(If it was raining, we wouldn't have been able to open the ceiling!) Under Turrell's orange ceiling light arrangement, the sky looked deeper and bluer than it actually was and changed slowly its colour.&lt;br /&gt;When the programme finished at sunset and it was dark, we were able to see millions of stars. It was a wonderful surprise. As we are coming up to the summer solstice, we had to wake up at 3:09am to see the programme again at sunrise, but it wasn't too bad to start the day at daybreak and see the wonderful light show once again.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SkDQ2Z72jYI/AAAAAAAABN0/BYXbRouDV3w/s1600-h/IMG_9507.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

is a guesthouse where visitors can experience artwork of  James Turrell. We were very lucky to have whole place by two of us – you might have to share the building with another group of people if a booking has been made. We were left alone in this house on top of the hill at night so it was scary isolated!&lt;br /&gt;There are a few art works by Turrell in the building. It was nice to experience his lighting float in the water in the bathroom at night. The light programme "Outside In" at sunset and sunrise was the best artwork I've ever seen in my life!&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sj-S6c9m2JI/AAAAAAAABM8/S2AgjfnNR5E/s1600-h/IMG_9472.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Art site. The works stand in middle of "tanada" terraced rice field so I found frogs, dragonflies and a rabbit along the trail. It was nice to feel art in the nature but to see them all, I had to walk two hours under strong sunshine and heat!&lt;br /&gt;Since they were installed in 2003, some of the art got faded or covered by weeds, but they are wild unlike the ones protected in the museums. &lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;花咲ける妻有 by 草間彌生&lt;br /&gt;Blooming at Tsumari by Yayoi Kusama&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sj-FVBpn9RI/AAAAAAAABL0/BBUK-GXBqps/s1600-h/IMG_9457.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

is designed by &lt;a href="http://www.mvrdv.nl/#/news" target="_blank"&gt;MVRDV&lt;/a&gt;, which is going to be one of the main sites during &lt;a href="http://www.echigo-tsumari.jp/2009/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennial&lt;/a&gt;. Inside the building, all the rooms are colour coded according to their use, blue for the cafe, green for the shop, and orange for the toilet. The toilet here is amazing- I couldn't find the way out and got really panicked!&lt;br /&gt;It is in an out-of-the way location, 45mins local train ride from Echigo-Yuzawa. There are many Triennial sites that are hard to get to without a car, but here we can at least visit by a train. It was a good surprise to find out about this place!  &lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;Cafe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sj93ckL5cmI/AAAAAAAABLc/sfn3VTcFZ2A/s1600-h/IMG_9384.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

It is the first time for "Vertumnus/Rudolf II" by Arcimboldo to come to Japan. I am overwhelmed... I never thought I could see his painting in real life.&lt;br /&gt;Every paintings are great and it is big fun to watch them. Everybody couldn't stop "Ah!" or "Oh!" in front of each work. There were various works exhibited from classic trompe-l’oeil to  modern artists so you can learn a lot about it. I absolutely loved this exhibition!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-1287762871318247780?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/1287762871318247780/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=1287762871318247780' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/1287762871318247780'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/1287762871318247780'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/06/bunkamura.html' title='だまし絵展 @Bunkamura'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SjeCtkPmEyI/AAAAAAAABKU/6pO-oNCjBTY/s72-c/Picture+1.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-8753367161951861019</id><published>2009-06-07T22:31:00.016+09:00</published><updated>2009-06-07T23:29:54.770+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fashion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>Hiroko Takahashi Exhibition @Rocket</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SivB34fYxfI/AAAAAAAABJ8/bjjgq_WEnoc/s1600-h/IMG_9319.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SivB34fYxfI/AAAAAAAABJ8/bjjgq_WEnoc/s320/IMG_9319.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344578548606223858" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SivB9loaXjI/AAAAAAAABKE/Gz2rNIGEa1c/s1600-h/hirocoledge_transform-thumb-600x460-11664.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 154px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SivB9loaXjI/AAAAAAAABKE/Gz2rNIGEa1c/s200/hirocoledge_transform-thumb-600x460-11664.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344578646623018546" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hirocoledge.com/" target="_blank"&gt;高橋理子&lt;/a&gt;さんの着物のエキシビジョンtransformが原宿の&lt;a href="http://www.rocket-jp.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Rocket&lt;/a&gt;にて開催中。キャットストリートから路地に入ったところにある小さなギャラリーです。&lt;br /&gt;浴衣を最後に着たのは10年前、着物も結婚式でしか着たことのない私ですが、高橋さんのグラフィカルな着物はとても素敵だと思う。着物っていうといかにも「和」というものが多くて、それはそれでいいんだけれど、ここには着物の新しい可能性みたいなものがあります。とにかくとにかく、かっこいい。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hirocoledge.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Hiroko Takahashi&lt;/a&gt;'s kimono exhibition "Transform" is held at &lt;a href="http://www.rocket-jp.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Rocket&lt;/a&gt; in Harajuku. It is a small gallery just off Cat Street.&lt;br /&gt;The last time I wore yukata (casual kimono for summer) was 10 years ago and I have only worn a kimono twicein my life, both times at a wedding. But even I can tell that Takahashi's graphical kimonos are outstanding. Kimono is often cliched and styled to look very Japanese. But you can see something new and extraordinary in her kimono. I believe Takahashi is one artist who can really change kimono culture in future.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8753367161951861019?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8753367161951861019/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8753367161951861019' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8753367161951861019'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8753367161951861019'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/06/hiroko-takahashi-exhibition-rocket.html' title='Hiroko Takahashi Exhibition @Rocket'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SivB34fYxfI/AAAAAAAABJ8/bjjgq_WEnoc/s72-c/IMG_9319.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-5164157035724964536</id><published>2009-06-06T21:28:00.011+09:00</published><updated>2009-06-07T22:40:08.795+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>Neoteny Japan @Ueno</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SiuyvdrOEVI/AAAAAAAABJk/WiRtkrtIXQA/s1600-h/IMG_9308.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SiuyvdrOEVI/AAAAAAAABJk/WiRtkrtIXQA/s320/IMG_9308.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344561911294726482"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Siuyzbl2krI/AAAAAAAABJs/Gf5gtoheIlU/s1600-h/IMG_9312.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Siuyzbl2krI/AAAAAAAABJs/Gf5gtoheIlU/s200/IMG_9312.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344561979454821042"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;上野の森美術館で開催中の&lt;a href="http://www.neoteny.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;ネオテニー・ジャパン―高橋コレクション&lt;/a&gt;展へ。奈良美智、村上隆といった日本人の現代アーティストの作品が絵画を中心に展示されていました。&lt;br /&gt;細かいディデールに凝っていながら、子どもっぽくフラットな作品が全体的に多い気がしたけど、&lt;a href="http://www.softkipper.com/" target="_blank"&gt;さわひらき&lt;/a&gt;のビデオ作品や、&lt;a href="http://www.yukenteruyastudio.com/" target="_blank"&gt;照屋勇賢&lt;/a&gt;のショッピングバッグから繊細な木をつくりだした作品など、素敵な出会いもあり。ネオテニーとは「幼形成熟」という意味らしく、子どもっぽさも納得。若者を中心にかなりの来場者がいたので、展覧会としては成功してるのかな。&lt;br /&gt;帰り道には西郷さん像を10年ぶりくらいに見ました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Siuy-X0EgwI/AAAAAAAABJ0/aqYALHMmFLQ/s1600-h/IMG_9316.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Siuy-X0EgwI/AAAAAAAABJ0/aqYALHMmFLQ/s200/IMG_9316.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344562167419273986"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.neoteny.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Neoteny Japan&lt;/a&gt; exhibition is held at The Ueno Royal Museum. The works of Japanese contemporary artist such as Yoshitomo Nara and Takashi Murakami are shown.&lt;br /&gt;A lot of the exhibits are detailed but really immature and flat, lacking depth. But video art by &lt;a href="http://www.softkipper.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Hiraki Sawa&lt;/a&gt; and miniature trees cut out from a luxury brand shopping bag (hard to explain, please check his website) by &lt;a href="http://www.yukenteruyastudio.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Yuen Teruya&lt;/a&gt; are really superb. There are many visitors so the exhibition must be going well.&lt;br /&gt;And I saw the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saigō_Takamori" target="_blank"&gt;Takamori Saigo&lt;/a&gt; statue in Ueno Park.

The works were about "Light, color, sound...", very spectacular and fun to watch! Specially the room with 12 disco globes going around by John M Armleder was amazing. &lt;br /&gt;Mori Museum is open till late night, so weekday evening is the best time to visit. It is quieter and on top of that, you get to see the glory Tokyo night view.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-1767932230733196485?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/1767932230733196485/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=1767932230733196485' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/1767932230733196485'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/1767932230733196485'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/06/mori-museum.html' title='Mori Museum'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SiVL7Ju5XUI/AAAAAAAABJM/t1Ukox-JPpQ/s72-c/IMG_9284.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-6934629837085047042</id><published>2009-05-11T22:17:00.010+09:00</published><updated>2009-05-11T23:29:55.289+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='film'/><title type='text'>MILK</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SggnjFBFQNI/AAAAAAAABJE/-yJZw70RvIA/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 192px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SggnjFBFQNI/AAAAAAAABJE/-yJZw70RvIA/s320/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334557242215973074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ショーン・ペンがオスカーを受賞した&lt;a href="http://milk-movie.jp/enter.html" target="_blank"&gt;ミルク&lt;/a&gt;。ハーヴィー・ミルクのことを何も知らずに見に行ったんだけど、号泣。滝のように涙が流れてきて大変でした。&lt;br /&gt;私は今までゲイの人達の権利を当たり前のことだと思っていたけど、そこに至るまでには長い道のりがあったということを初めて知りました。よく考えてみれば、カリフォルニアでは2008年に同性婚の禁止が再び住民投票で可決されたりと、まだまだ平等とはとても言えない。映画はシリアスな話だけではなく、ミルクがとてもチャーミングに描かれていて、いろんな意味で素晴らしい映画でした。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I went to see &lt;a href="http://milk-movie.jp/enter.html" target="_blank"&gt;MILK&lt;/a&gt;, it finally arrived in Japan. I didn't know anything about Harvey Milk but I cried and cried during the film. &lt;br /&gt;I always thought gay right were a matter of course but it took a long hard journey to win their right. The film wasn't only serious, Milk was depicted charmingly. It was one of the best films I've ever seen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-6934629837085047042?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/6934629837085047042/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=6934629837085047042' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6934629837085047042'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6934629837085047042'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/05/milk.html' title='MILK'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SggnjFBFQNI/AAAAAAAABJE/-yJZw70RvIA/s72-c/Picture+1.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-2149331527851308207</id><published>2009-05-06T18:00:00.019+09:00</published><updated>2009-05-06T18:50:20.886+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><title type='text'>Mark Rothko @Kawamura Museum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SgFSgTJgSkI/AAAAAAAABIk/gIJK-aLyRo8/s1600-h/IMG_9234.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SgFSgTJgSkI/AAAAAAAABIk/gIJK-aLyRo8/s320/IMG_9234.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332634148632808002" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SgFSkSvcl_I/AAAAAAAABIs/WtlWKa2dAis/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 159px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SgFSkSvcl_I/AAAAAAAABIs/WtlWKa2dAis/s200/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332634217242990578" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;千葉県佐倉の&lt;a href="http://kawamura-museum.dic.co.jp/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;川村記念美術館&lt;/a&gt;で開催中の『マーク・ロスコ 瞑想する絵画』展。ロスコの巨大なぼんやりとした絵だけが15点ほど掲げられた部屋は圧巻でした・・・。瞑想するしかない感じ。ロスコが書いた手紙も公開されていて、そこには偉大な作品をつくる作家の人間としての弱さがにじみでていて、興味深い展示内容でした。&lt;br /&gt;川村美術館の常設展も、レンブラント、ピカソ、マンレイなどなど、数は多くないけれどすごい名前がずらり。1990年に開館したそうですが、美術館の周りだけ違う空気が流れています。ほんとビックリ。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;Mark Rothko exhibition is held at &lt;a href="http://kawamura-museum.dic.co.jp/en/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;Kawamura Memorial Museum of Art&lt;/a&gt; in Sakura near Narita Airport. Fifteen huge obscure paintings by Rothko are displayed in one room, which was just breathtaking. All you need to do is "meditate" as the museum advice you to do. There are also letters by Rothko on the display, which shows the great artist also had weaknesses. It was a good exhibition!&lt;br /&gt;The museum is miles away from Tokyo but has got amazing collection. In the permanent exhibition, there are big names such as  Rembrandt, Picasso and Man Ray. It opened in 1990 and the museum stands out from its neighbourhood.

It took me nearly 4 hours from Tokyo by train and bus. I really wanted to see the museum designed by Kengo Kuma and "Four Seasons in Japan - One Hundred Famous Views of Edo " exhibition so made a trip to Nakagawa, Tochigi prefecture.&lt;br /&gt;60 ukiyoe prints about the views of Edo (there are total of 120 prints in this Edo series)  were displayed with the photos taken in the same place today. It showed how much Tokyo had  changed in the last 150 years. I learnt a lot about ukiyoe, how prints are made and which tools craftsman use.&lt;br /&gt;There is a nice hiking trail behind the museum. This museum is in middle of nowhere but it is worth visiting!&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sf2jQ1-FmGI/AAAAAAAABH8/HNUh5tvVxiI/s1600-h/IMG_9162.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

It was about photography by such artist as Man Ray, Andy Warhol and Horst.P.Horst. There aren't many works by each photographer, but it was a good selection of important photographs.&lt;br /&gt;This was my first time in Watari-um Museum. It is not a very big building but it contains a nice cafe and shop. Because today was a weekday, I enjoyed the whole space by myself. The building was designed by Mario Botta.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-7822707913438164826?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/7822707913438164826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=7822707913438164826' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/7822707913438164826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/7822707913438164826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/04/watari-um.html' title='歴史の天使 @Watari-um'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/Sflv8vjiUXI/AAAAAAAABHU/Hm_fgPcO2TY/s72-c/earth_s.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-3905857678614953171</id><published>2009-04-05T10:53:00.013+09:00</published><updated>2009-05-03T22:01:16.064+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>inochi @Kaikai Kiki Gallery</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SdgPH0M1ZUI/AAAAAAAABHM/TJmoGs6LxCc/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 228px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SdgPH0M1ZUI/AAAAAAAABHM/TJmoGs6LxCc/s320/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321019586684216642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.kaikaikiki.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Kaikai Kiki Gallery&lt;/a&gt;で村上隆の『inochi』展が4/16まで開催中。村上さんご本人がギャラリーを横切るのを見てちょっとビックリ。&lt;br /&gt;「iochiくん」というフィギュアそのものに加え、「inochiくん」というキャラクターを使ったCMやその制作過程、「inochiくん」を小さくしたフィギュアのおもちゃ（1体¥150,000）が展示されていました。プロジェクト、としてのアート、みたいなところでみせているのが面白かったです。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;"inochi" exhibition by Takashi Murakami is held at &lt;a href="http://www.kaikaikiki.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Kaikai Kiki Gallery&lt;/a&gt; till 16/April. I saw Murakami walking across the gallery! &lt;br /&gt;"inochi" is a character that Muarakami created. In the exhibition, inochi's figure was shown as well as the process of making a commercial which inoch appears, and miniature toys made from inochi (they sell these toys for ¥150,000). The exhibition was about a whole project. It was more than showing a piece of artwork.

Dresses made in 1910's and 20's are displayed. Unfortunately the rooms were really crowded and people were talking loudly. I think I came here on the wrong day...&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I was surprised by the oriental influence on Poiret who is famous for  freeing women from corsets. And this was my first time to see Fortuny's Delphos gown. His pleated gowns are so delicate and beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;There is a garden outside of the museum and five sculptures were displayed.

There were 7 times more entries than the position available this year. I just need to keep trying till I get in, maybe next 7 years...&lt;br /&gt;I watched people around Hibiya because there were two turning points of the course. 10km, 20km and 35km, the smile disappeared from runners' faces.

The shop space has been extended and the cafe now looks a lot cooler . But I am happy to find out that the library hasn't changed. So I spent a couple of hours reading books as usual.&lt;br /&gt;This museum was designed by &lt;a href="http://www.tak-archi.co.jp" target="_blank"&gt;Takahiko Yamnagisawa&lt;/a&gt;. I come here often but this was my first time to explore around the building. The glass windows facing the Kiba park reflect sunlight and there are some artworks displayed around the building. &lt;br /&gt;"The infinite between zero and one" by Ryoji Ikeda will be on from 2/April. I'm looking forward to visiting again for that.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-2479682811440293603?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/2479682811440293603/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=2479682811440293603' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2479682811440293603'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/2479682811440293603'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/03/mot.html' title='MOT'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScSw2CcSvoI/AAAAAAAABF8/5F36bpjTz4s/s72-c/IMG_9125.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-7893113646258614072</id><published>2009-03-20T19:09:00.010+09:00</published><updated>2009-03-22T18:31:14.218+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>Ando Gallery</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScS9RP5EgGI/AAAAAAAABGU/IIeWO7x9hY0/s1600-h/IMG_9123.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScS9RP5EgGI/AAAAAAAABGU/IIeWO7x9hY0/s320/IMG_9123.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315581564225355874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScS-pmFtEUI/AAAAAAAABGc/XiTJFb9y3W8/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 178px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScS-pmFtEUI/AAAAAAAABGc/XiTJFb9y3W8/s200/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315583082012414274" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;東京都現代美術館の近くの&lt;a href="http://www.andogallery.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Ando Gallery&lt;/a&gt;で開催中のリカルダ・ロッガン展へ。2008年の7月にオープンしていて、ずっと行きたいと思っていたギャラリーで、そんなに広くはないけれど、住宅地の中に突然あらわれる素敵な空間です。&lt;br /&gt;リカルダ・ロッガンの作品は、木々の写真だったんだけれど、明るいところと暗いところの対比が、照明によってさらに強調されて、緑が浮かび上がってくるという迫力のあるものでした。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;I finally visited &lt;a href="http://www.andogallery.co.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Ando Gallery&lt;/a&gt; near MOT. Since its opening in last  July, I really wanted to go. The gallery is surrounded by houses, in middle of nowhere, but is a precious little place.&lt;br /&gt;Now the exhibition by Ricarda Roggan is on. His photos of trees are amazing. The contrast between leaves with light and in the shadow made the photos three-dimensional. It was a  peaceful exhibition...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-7893113646258614072?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/7893113646258614072/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=7893113646258614072' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/7893113646258614072'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/7893113646258614072'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/03/ando-gallery.html' title='Ando Gallery'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/ScS9RP5EgGI/AAAAAAAABGU/IIeWO7x9hY0/s72-c/IMG_9123.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-3187202018729696199</id><published>2009-02-22T23:05:00.009+09:00</published><updated>2009-02-22T23:19:20.012+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>根津美術館 / Nezu Museum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFbryWfBJI/AAAAAAAABEc/gULozBoiIKA/s1600-h/IMG_9105.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFbryWfBJI/AAAAAAAABEc/gULozBoiIKA/s320/IMG_9105.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305622643827737746" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFbwGOtoVI/AAAAAAAABEk/h8BLCqnTik0/s1600-h/IMG_9102.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFbwGOtoVI/AAAAAAAABEk/h8BLCqnTik0/s200/IMG_9102.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305622717883326802" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;現在改装中の&lt;a href="http://www.nezu-muse.or.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;根津美術館&lt;/a&gt;。今年の10月に完成予定のようですが、工事現場からちらっと建物の外観が見えました。隈研吾さん設計で、日本的な趣きが感じられます。どんな美術館が完成するのか楽しみです。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nezu-muse.or.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;Nezu Museum&lt;/a&gt; in Minami Aoyama is closed because they knocked down the old building and are rebuilding now.

It doesn't seem to be open yet but this is a Ginza office of cosmetic company &lt;a href="http://www.pias.co.jp" target="_blank"&gt;PIAS&lt;/a&gt;. The building is 13-story so not very tall but really stands out. &lt;br /&gt;The facade is made of 72 layers of concrete and glass and boxes combined with aluminum and glass and twisted 85 degrees. When you look up from the bottom of the building, it looks amazing.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-6773163554051284502?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/6773163554051284502/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=6773163554051284502' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6773163554051284502'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/6773163554051284502'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2009/02/pias-ginza.html' title='PIAS GINZA'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFF-KjADJI/AAAAAAAABD0/QbdAaal-WDs/s72-c/IMG_9078.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-1451543441889618093</id><published>2009-02-13T00:02:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2009-02-23T00:25:19.466+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hokkaido'/><title type='text'>札幌芸術の森 / Sapporo Art Park</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpTVprwtI/AAAAAAAABFU/U5Qd6-INETw/s1600-h/IMG_8986.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpTVprwtI/AAAAAAAABFU/U5Qd6-INETw/s320/IMG_8986.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305637616969564882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpcfag4AI/AAAAAAAABFc/T--FdnPxc94/s1600-h/IMG_8976.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpcfag4AI/AAAAAAAABFc/T--FdnPxc94/s200/IMG_8976.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305637774209114114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;雪に埋もれた&lt;a href="http://www.artpark.or.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;札幌芸術の森&lt;/a&gt;。野外美術館では長靴とかんじきをレンタルしてくれるので、雪にも負けず外を散策できます。かんじきは意外と歩きやすくてびっくり。&lt;br /&gt;かなりの数の作品が雪に埋もれて見えなかったけど、これも彫刻とそれが展示される場所の自然なありかた。良かったです。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpoxH3FZI/AAAAAAAABFk/uu7CmBtT3ZI/s1600-h/IMG_8974.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SaFpoxH3FZI/AAAAAAAABFk/uu7CmBtT3ZI/s200/IMG_8974.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305637985121146258" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.artpark.or.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;sapporo Art Park&lt;/a&gt; was completely covered with snow.

I went down the staircase and there was a small shrine. The contrast between the concrete wall and cinnabar latticework was beautiful. It is nice to visit place like this to appreciate the architecture. &lt;br /&gt;To get to Awaji Island from the mainland, catch a bus goes over the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, which provides amazing views.

It looks to me that this building had its days.&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;東京都中央区銀座8-16-10&lt;br /&gt;8-16-10, Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-9167527883544868196?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/9167527883544868196/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=9167527883544868196' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/9167527883544868196'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/9167527883544868196'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/12/nakagin-capsul-tower.html' title='中銀カプセルタワー / Nakagin Capsule Tower'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SVMUqwK_mDI/AAAAAAAABAQ/LOBKtzhEGrI/s72-c/IMG_8689.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-5993156570909985945</id><published>2008-12-22T13:02:00.010+09:00</published><updated>2008-12-25T14:27:00.510+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>静岡新聞 / Shizuoka Shimbun</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SVMGGPM-tDI/AAAAAAAAA_4/qUZWDdjQSlQ/s1600-h/IMG_8674.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SVMGGPM-tDI/AAAAAAAAA_4/qUZWDdjQSlQ/s320/IMG_8674.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5283573492065678386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SVMGhXc7oqI/AAAAAAAABAI/aDU4bhiePnI/s1600-h/IMG_8677.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SVMGhXc7oqI/AAAAAAAABAI/aDU4bhiePnI/s200/IMG_8677.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5283573958136537762" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;代々木体育館や&lt;a href="http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/04/tokyo-metropolitan-government-bldg.html" target="_blank"&gt;都庁&lt;/a&gt;でおなじみの建築家・丹下健三さんにより1967年に建てられた静岡新聞の東京支社。新橋駅のすぐ近くにあります。何か理由があってこういうかたちをしているのだろうけど、中がどうなっているか気になります。&lt;br /&gt;現代の感覚からいえばあまりかっこよくはない外見ですが、ビルがぽんぽん建て替えられる銀座の一角にモダニズムの建築がぽつんと残っているのは奇跡的なのでは。色んなスタイルの建物が見事にごちゃまぜになっているムチャクチャさが、東京の街の魅力ですね。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;Shizuoka Shimbun's Tokyo branch is built in 1967 by architect Kenzo Tange who also designed Yoyogi Gymnasium and &lt;a href="http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/04/tokyo-metropolitan-government-bldg.html" target="_blank"&gt;Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bldg&lt;/a&gt;. It is near Shinbashi station. There must be reason for it but I wonder why this building has unusual shape like this.&lt;br /&gt;I wouldn't say this building looks cool now but it amazing that this Modernism building is still left in Ginza where buildings gets knocked down easily to be renewed.

There was a model of "Church of Light" and I could see the shape of the building. &lt;br /&gt;Bookshop TOTO on the 2nd floor of the building has a large stock of architecture magazines.

The whole film is shown in a split screen format. And a song by Carla Bruni is used in the film.&lt;br /&gt;The story is about ex-husband and wife who meet each other again and spent a night together. Leading actors, Aaron Eckhart and Helena Bonham Carter were amazing. They are not particularly good looking but had some charm.

Takao&lt;/a&gt; was more crowded than Shibuya crossing today. &lt;br /&gt;I took a bus from Takao Station to Jinba Kogenshita and started climbing from there. From Mt. Jinba to Mt. Takao, I completed the walk in just over five hours.&lt;br /&gt;Mt. Jinba was busier than usual but walkable. The closer I got Mt. Takao, the more crowded it got. On my way back to the station from the top of Mt. Takao, I had to queue up in line. I saw a girl climbing in stilettos and I was amazed how strong the heels were.&lt;br /&gt;It is good this many people enjoy mountain climbing, but I need to find a quieter mountain...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8831696672170872446?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8831696672170872446/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8831696672170872446' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8831696672170872446'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8831696672170872446'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/11/mt-takao.html' title='高尾山 / Mt.

It is clever, sophisticated and handsome.&lt;br /&gt;But the iPhone contract is not fair for non-Japanese. If you are non-Japanese and your visa remains less than 15 months, you have to pay approximately ¥78,000 in advance. You get a discount every month so either you pay in installments or the everything in one go, you end up paying about ¥35,000 in total. In my case, I got two iPhone contracts under my name and my husband, whose visa has less than 15 months on it didn't have to pay ¥78,000 in one go.&lt;br /&gt;SoftBank should charge the final fee to everybody. It would be much fairer and less complicated!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-8803208073390123734?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/8803208073390123734/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=8803208073390123734' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8803208073390123734'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/8803208073390123734'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/11/iphone.html' title='iPhone'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SSdzyC6ha6I/AAAAAAAAA-Y/WcvTFmMmcMY/s72-c/Picture+1.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-2747610566052775019</id><published>2008-11-20T11:02:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2008-11-22T11:24:39.581+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>銀杏 / Ginkgo Tree</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SSdodlvX1lI/AAAAAAAAA-I/IOCvwT87y0U/s1600-h/IMG_0004.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

From Omotesando street, we can't see much of the building because it is covered by trees so it is lucky to see this much of it.&lt;br /&gt;Tod's Omotesando is supported by the concrete wall so there aren't pillars inside.

Now, a building behind the boutique has been taken down and we can see Prada from the back.&lt;br /&gt;The surface of the building is flat on the back so we can see thorough inside more than from the front.

But this place provides the perfect setting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;ライナー・クリスター『大きな手』&lt;br /&gt;Rainer Kriester "Big Hand"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SLwBzZekj8I/AAAAAAAAAp0/lBR1RRk-1sQ/s1600-h/IMG_7743.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

in Hakone, a 2 hour bus ride from Shinjuku. Today was the last week of a Chagall exhibition. There are some paintings about bulls, circuses and his hometown. And some picture books based on the bible were also shown.&lt;br /&gt;The Chagall exhibition was good but the permanent exhibition on the history of painting since the 19th century was amazing. They also show an Ukiyo-e collection of Japanese fashion from the Edo era (1603-1867) to the Meiji era (1868-1912). There was a lot to see.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6389068709164592782-3620861480275057202?l=tokyoism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/feeds/3620861480275057202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6389068709164592782&amp;postID=3620861480275057202' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3620861480275057202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6389068709164592782/posts/default/3620861480275057202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tokyoism.blogspot.com/2008/09/pola-museum-of-art.html' title='ポーラ美術館 / Pola Museum Of Art'/><author><name>Mayu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09592957939406391296</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SEKgDAZhPvI/AAAAAAAAAho/43teTy6r3bE/S220/IMG.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SLvz781td1I/AAAAAAAAAos/5CdZBCBw_kI/s72-c/IMG_7734.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389068709164592782.post-373090299386464144</id><published>2008-08-21T22:51:00.015+09:00</published><updated>2008-08-22T00:08:57.358+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='film'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo'/><title type='text'>TOKYO!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SK19jCxXDRI/AAAAAAAAAoI/HPSnOOTlA4Y/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__dCG7MYJcqw/SK19jCxXDRI/AAAAAAAAAoI/HPSnOOTlA4Y/s320/Picture+1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236979982694550802" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ミシェル・ゴンドリー、レオス・カラックス、ポン・ジュノの三人の監督による短篇映画&lt;a href="http://tokyo-movie.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;TOKYO!&lt;/a&gt;。くせがあるというか、個性的というか、なんだか微妙。監督が自分の分からない言語で映画を撮る、というのはかなりリスクがあるのでは？と思ってしまいました。&lt;br /&gt;でもポン・ジュノ監督の『シェイキング東京』は映像がきれいで、東京の夏の太陽の感じがすごく伝わってきて良かったです。&lt;br /&gt;■■■&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tokyo-movie.jp/" target="_blank"&gt;TOKYO!&lt;/a&gt; is a collection of three vignettes by Michel Gondry, Leos Carax, Bong Joon-ho.
