Noh mask exhibition [Gallery Ginza]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] April 17, 2013 14:00

A Noh mask exhibition is being held at Gallery Ginza facing Ginza Marronnier Street from 15th (Mon) to 21st (Sun).

On display are Noh masks such as Hanwaka, Okina, Komen, Uba, etc., by Yoshiharu Nakano who lives in Kyoto and other Noh masks. Noh masks are said to be "striking" instead of "carving". It seems that this is because the Noh mask "striking" his heart on his face.

In the play "Shuzenji Monogatari" (written by Kido Okamoto), it was remembered that some reason a death phase appeared on the mask of the main character, the main character, Yasha King's "Batting" Yoriie Minamotono. The death phase that appeared on the surface implies the fate of Yoriya, and then he is assassinated.

It seems that all the materials are cypress. From the softness of the expression of the Noh mask, I don't think it's made of wood. On Saturdays and Sundays, applicants can also experience face-to-face!

Art Museum of Calligraphy [Ginza Shoko Kanazawa Museum]

As you walk along Ginza Marronnier Street from Showa-dori toward Tsukiji Police Station, you will find a Natural Lawson shop on your left and the Ginza Shoko Museum on the first basement floor of the building. This is a new museum that opened in February this year. It is permanent and will replace the exhibits every few months in the coming months.

I've seen Kanazawa-san calligraphy several times on TV, but I'm overwhelmed when I see what was actually written. The momentum of carrying the brush is very lively and fresh, and combined with the meaning of the kanji itself, it approaches.

At first, I felt uncomfortable with the name "Museum", but when I saw Mr. Kanazawa's book, I realized that it was a beautiful work of art that appealed strongly to the viewer. You can get well!
