Grace Kelly has made a dramatic turn from Hollywood's top actress to the princess of the Principality of Monaco. I think there are many people who still remember the beautiful woman called "Cool Beauty". On the first day of this exhibition, which was to be held as the "10th Anniversary of Friendship between Japan Monaco" was opened. Even though it is orthodox by famous designers such as photographs and videos of the actress era, Dior and Valenshaga, fresh dresses are scattered even now. Among them, the most eye-catching is that wedding dress. There is a sense of sight because I have seen it many times in the video, but the dress on display seems to have been faithfully reproduced. Many of your favorite jewelry are designed with insects, and it feels somewhat familiar. And "Kerry Bag" is the original Kerry. 170 valuable royal collections are in one hall. Please take a look not only as a great star in Hollywood, but also as a princess loved by the people. I immediately rushed to the rental video and rented the "upstream society".

"Grace Kelly Exhibition" Matsuya Ginza 8F Event Square

Closed at 17:00 on the last day from 10:00 to 20:00 until September 26

Admission fee 1,000 yen　

This exhibition, which began on August 31, came on Monday that it would be crowded on Saturdays and Sundays, but double and triple visitors from the entrance of the venue! Speaking of which, from the first day, the 3,000 houses have been alternately pots for two days, and I thought that today was the last day. I don't think we need to explain the Senke Tensho, but since the Sen no Rikyu era, we have been working for more than hundreds of years at 10 professionals who have created Senke-like tea utensils, Rakuyaki, tea pots, bags, and paints. The crowded venue tried "reverse" with usual hands, but there was no effect. Looking at Chojiro's three points, I decided to go back again, and today is the last tea ceremony. This is also lined up. I'm going to be in the next seat somehow, and I'm relieved to wait for the Senke ten video for 20 minutes. Today's charge is Mushakojisenke. When guided, first of all, the sweets are "Kobore Hagi", and the light green and Hitoke Beni are the perfect colors for early autumn. It is said that all the tools were works by Senke Ten, and several bowls (the same type of bowl offered to other than the main customer) were also made by the Eiraku family of our generation for this seat. Luxury. The regular customer's bowl is from Rakukichizaemon today, and the regular customer is enviable.

I thought that the word "Senke Ten Job" had already existed in the Momoyama era, but according to Mitsukoshi's pamphlet, in 1923, the Mitsukoshi Osaka store "Senke Ten Job Tea Ceremony Exhibition" was held. It seems that the first was to use the word "Senke Ten Job". It is surprising that each of the ten professions has been around since the Rikyu era, but they are surprisingly new.

"We will exhibit about 250 tea utensils that have been handed down to the DNA of aesthetics for hundreds of years, ten professionals who have been working with Senke since the Sen no Rikyu era and have been creating their favorite tea utensils." (From Mitsukoshi's pamphlet) Please take a look. At the art gallery on the 6th floor, there is also a "Senke Jushi New Works Exhibition". It's hard to reach, but it's a lot of wonderful works.

I entered September, but it was a harsh summer heat, probably because of the typhoon. On the 1st, "Hideyama Festival" September Kabuki began. When the wives of the executive officers step in one step from the entrance of the line, the seats are full. It is also a feeling of the first day that there are many kimonos.

As you know, the "Hideyama Festival" began at Kabukiza in 2006, the 120th anniversary of birth to honor the first Yoshiemon, and this is the 10th year this year. It has been 50 years since Yoshiemon, who works as the head of the temple, named Yoshiemon! I think it will be.

In the evening, "Yoshino River" of "Senshiyama Women's Niwanori" is a well-known masterpiece, but it is not easy to pass through "Yoshino River" and "Michigo Koi Ring" and "Goten". As you know well, the story depicts the sad love of men and women between the enemies across Yoshino River against the backdrop of the Japanese version of Romeo and Juliet, and the renewal of Dahua. The large judge Kiyosumi is a luxurious combination with Emon Yoshiemon, son, Kuganosuke is Somegoro, Dazai Sadataka is Tamasaburo, daughter, and Hinatori is Kikunosuke. In the center of the stage, two people appeared from Yoshino River and Ryohanamichi (see the dignified figure of Tamasaburo's back room of the lord of Yamato country for a while). When the exchange of serifu began across the river, the audience seats were in the rapids of Yoshino River as set. During the period, the festival of chicks, Yoshino cherry blossoms, the sadness of parents who lose their children, and the famous scene of `` Hinatari '' where the head of the chick bird crosses the rapids of Yoshino River and enters under Kuganosuke, there are people who hold their eyes here and there when they look around. I enjoyed the tense stage of nearly 2 hours.

After that, "Rakuda" took the subject easily. Mr. Matsu Midori and Mr. Somegoro, the landlord couple is Utaroku, and Mr. Tozo, a living national treasure certified in July. In a conversation with Mr. Matsu Midori, Somegoro laughs at the audience with ad-lib, saying, "The mountain steps are already good." At the end, "Genroku era Hanami Odori" Tamasaburo was glossy and died in "Rakuda" (it seems to be tired) Kameju was dancing happily. Speaking of which, the night part of the Living National Treasure 3kata appeared.

The daytime section is "Goban Taiheiki", "Tachief Thieves", and "Ichijo Daikura Tan".

Senakiraku will be held on the 25th. Ticket inquiries are available at Ticket Hon Shochiku 0570-000-489 10:00-18:00

It has been 20 years since the shocking accidental death at the interview was reported. The exhibitions have been held several times since then, but for the first time I was able to feel the appearance of Alaska wild animals and the lives of the people living there.

Familiar smiling parents and children of polar bears, cute eyes of tatego seal seals, grizzley, cariboo, mousse, etc. And the aurora that makes you feel the mystery of the universe.

Looking at the natural expressions of the indigenous people, it makes me wonder how long it took to take this photo again. This time, 250 representative works and favorite items such as cameras and kayaks that have been used for many years are also exhibited. It is an exhibition like a coolant that makes you forget the heat outside for a while.
