I went to Sasaki Shoten, which was introduced on TV last year.

I'm going to miss it after passing by,

I didn't know until I read the "Ginza History Walk Map".

Ryusei Kishida is in "Shinko Hosoku Ginza-dori"

"Tsuyabukin's Sasaki is, of course, old, every year seven herbs have a Dai-Kagura in this shop.

It was used to come to see it, and I went to Sasaki every year on the night of seven herbs. "

I also bought "Tsuyafukin".

It looks like a yellow towel, but it seems to be good to use it to polish wood products such as pipes from the Meiji era.

It seems that there are still orders from all over the country.

Sasaki Shoten is a long-established smoking equipment that was founded in 1868.

It is said that there is no one who is a pipe enthusiast.

At the Noevia Ginza Gallery, "Dedicated to Ken Domon-Kazuyoshi Miyoshi Photo Exhibition" Murouji Twelve Gods "" is being held until March 25 (Fri).

[Muro-ji]
'Muro-ji Temple is a temple located in Uda City, Nara Prefecture. Kongo-buji Temple, which was banned from women, is also known as "Women Takano" because women were allowed to visit. '
[Wooden Twelve Gods Statue]
These statues, which protect twelve directions as a member of Yakushi Nyorai, have Earthly Branches overhead. The expression of exaggeration and free form is a feature of the middle of Kamakura, and is a masterpiece of this period. '

At the event square on the 8th floor of Matsuya Ginza, "100 Beat Takeshi Art Art Museum Takeshi Exhibition" is being held.

The event period is from Thursday, February 25 to March 7 (Monday).

Beat Takeshi started with "comedy" and has entertained us with talents, actors, and film directors (Takeshi Kitano), but this time he showed his talent as Kitano painter You.

It seems that this exhibition was decided to be held based on the idea of the person saying, "If you try to display it side by side with the picture of the oira, you will be pleased to see it."

Approximately 100 works, including prints, paintings, and collage works, are open to the public.

I watch some films directed by Kitano, but I remember a strong blue image called the so-called "Kitano Blue" in my memory.

However, in this exhibition, not only "Kitano Blue" but also various combinations of colors were impressive.

Anyway, it's just fun to watch.

The trophy of the Gold Lion and Silver Lion won at the Venice International Film Festival was also on display.
