Special Exhibition
< -Jan.9> Byodo-in Hoo-do ~ Its Beauty and Religion
   Byodo-in was built in 1052 in Uji, Kyoto by Fujiwara Yorimichi,
   one of the sons of Regent Fujiwara Michinaga, a statesman
   who wielded great influence and power.
   Plagues, earthquakes, wars and other disasters led people to believe
   in Buddhist predictions of an impending apocalypse.
   As a result, aristocracy and monks put their faith in the existence
   of a "Buddhist Pure Land". Yorimichi had the temple built
   with many halls and representations of the Buddha to represent
   this land of the afterworld. The show introduces the temple's history,
   Japanese culture peculiar to the Heian period and explores people's beliefs
   in Pure Land Buddhism.

<-Jan. 30, 2022>   Paintings by Komoda Mitsuko and Morisuke
      "100th Anniversary Exhibition Komoda Mitsuko "Morisuke and Nostalgia"
      Komoda Mitsuko (1921-2007) was born in Megro, Tokyo.
      She studied painting from an early age, and when she was 22,
      she was selected to participate in the 13th Independent Art Exhibition.
      However, she married Komoda Morisuke, a painter from Ehime prefecture
       endorsed by Inokuma Genichiro.
      Mitsuko gave up painting at the insistence of husband Morisuke.
       Mitsuko deferred to her husband's career for about 16 years,
      but began painting again after her husband died.
      Her early works were reminiscent of Morisuke's painting.
      Afterwards, Mitsuko turned her attention to the subjects
       of daily life and family, the casual scenery of every day,
      festivals and circuses, but with a unique perspective.
      Her nostalgic art captures half-remembered emotions
      such as loneliness and a vague unease,
      that leads viewers into her own mysterious world.
