From October 17th tomorrow, “Hiroshi Senju-Koyasan Kongobuji Fusuma Painting Memorial Exhibition-” will be held at the gallery building.

Today, on October 16, 2020, Hiroshi Senju’s fusuma paintings will be dedicated to the “tea room” and “hearth room,” which have been white fusuma for many years at Kongobuji Temple in Koyasan.

Koyasan Kongobuji Temple is a sacred place for Shingon Esoteric Buddhism, which was opened by Kukai at the beginning of the Heian period. Since 1863, the brilliant painters who represent the history of Japanese art have drawn fusuma paintings. Hiroshi Senju was selected as the painter to paint on the white sliding doors of the last two rooms (the living room and the hearth).

From October 17th tomorrow, “Hiroshi Senju-Koyasan Kongobuji Memorial Exhibition-” will be held in the gallery building of the Hiroshi Senju Museum Karuizawa.

In the garden of the museum, the color of the trees begins to change beautifully as the autumn leaves progress.

After viewing the museum, you can also enjoy a walk in the garden, which has begun to turn red and yellow. Karuizawa has beautiful autumn spots. Why don’t you come and look for the autumn leaves?
