Spend the
night on the Art Island. Naoshima. Visit museums on the Island.
Guide: This
is a very famous painting... Made by...I already told you about him.
Guide: The artist was trying to prove…To represent…He was thinking about…You
will notice... I’m sure you've seen his work…
Us: Fantastic
Us: Ohm
yeah
We visit a museum displaying pictures by Monet. No photos allowed.
Guide:
Monet. Shadow and light Choose one of your own.
The
snobbish part of me thinks the pictures look out of place. Incongruous. They
don’t deserve to see such paintings. No visible security.
The other
part of me thinks the paintings should be seen by everybody.
The Monet Paintings
have led to local artists copying and learning. Local paintings hang next to
famous paintings. Local ceramics. Jugs plates bowls.
Us tourists: I am so glad she is showing up around and telling us.
