I went to see the “Koji Saibo Exhibition (Late Period)” for which I had received an invitation ticket.、I went to the "Mori no Art Museum" in Otakanomori, Nagareyama City, Chiba Prefecture.。I have already introduced Mr. Nishibo's other solo exhibition (article on October 3, 2025).、There are also some of his earliest works here.、I was also interested。The exhibition period is until December 21, 2025。

It's sunny again this morning。My lower back has been feeling better since yesterday.、It was about a 20 minute walk from the station.、I went out with the intention of walking as well.。20More than a year ago, I was invited by members of the Otaka Forest Preservation Activities.、I have only been to Otaka no Mori once.。Since then, the surrounding area has been rapidly developed.、It had become a “modern city” with large buildings.。It seems that the bus stop that marks the turn to the museum has been moved.、I went too far (good for walking)。

The first gallery I visited was、This year marks the 10th anniversary, so the walls were still clean.。On the edge of the forest (the adjacent one is called ``Oguro no Mori'')、(Forest with a slightly confusing name)、It's small but、It's a really nice space。The environment is good, so you can take a deep breath and look at the paintings.。The admission fee is 600 yen.、Comes with coffee and small snacks、I think it's quite a good deal。

Mr. Saibo's work is a pleasant realistic painting.。I'm from Noto.、He still lives in Noto and continues to work energetically.。I think he is a writer who will continue to be more active in the future.。

"empathy"、A sense of “sharing”、It's probably a keyword in life.、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。Words like “unity” and “cooperation”、I like Japanese people。

If you turn it over、Regarding things and people who “cannot empathize” and “don’t cooperate”、There is an idea that、without thinking about it、Basically, it also means that there is a strong tendency to "exclude" them as foreign molecules.。Oh dear、This doesn't seem to be limited to Japanese people.、In fact, this trend seems to be increasing all over the world.。

The phrase "reading the atmosphere" became popular.、As a coined word, you have a keen sense of words.、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。I think the more you listen, the more you hear it.、I don't think I can come up with such an idea.。Fine arts such as paintings and sculptures are actually、I am reading the ``atmosphere'' that emanates from its shape and color.、It can be said that。The difference is、"Air" flows beyond the place and time.。

Empathy and sharing、A sense of cooperation、For artists、Sometimes it's a nuisance。But、There is no art without empathy。someone sympathizes、If the work is not left behind, it is as if it does not exist as a work.。If it remains as data、Some people say、Someday, somewhere、someone will sympathize、This is because they have something similar to "faith" that。And that's probably not wrong。

I gave an assignment in the watercolor class.。The autumn leaves are in full bloom now.。Let's draw an autumn landscape、One thing is that。At that time、The second step is to apply color flatly.。Forms that can be used for this purpose、(If possible) The third thing is to consist of only triangles and squares.。We proposed that these three be displayed on one screen at the same time.。

The general purpose of the task is、Steps to abstract thinking。The “flattening (simplification)” of colors and shapes is a stepping stone to such thinking.、Connected with modern painting thinking。

The students in the classroom were simply trying to draw an autumn landscape.、Looks very confused。Like this、 “Pure” Each person individually selects a concrete motif (photo)、And triangular、I was told to draw only squares.。It's like I was suddenly punished for something.、 At first, I made a face like, “I don’t remember it…?”。

Maybe it was a bit of an irresponsible way of asking the question.、Actually, I am now reflecting on this.。Chew it a little more carefully、I should have done it in stages.、I felt rushed。
That's why、I decided to take on the same problem myself.。Colors can be applied in a flat manner (no shading)、Because the matiere (texture) is created using acrylic.、Unintended changes appear on their own (although it seems a bit illegal)。If you try it、As expected, it's difficult (sorry everyone)。But、I'm sure you'll come up with some ideas that will surprise me.。
