"Scenic Spots in Nagano, Japan" Matsumoto City Museum of Art, exploring Yayoi Kusama's illusion works and gourmet Bistro Cen time

Matsumoto City Museum of Art is the itinerary that I am looking forward to in this industry. I missed the "Dream of My Dream: Yayoi Kusama Asia Tour Exhibition" held by Yayoi Kusama in June 2015.6. I always felt a pity in my heart. This time I followed the staff of Nagano Prefecture to interview and film, and finally got a glimpse of the teacher's paintings and exhibits.In addition, we also ate at Bistro Cen time, a cafe in the Songyuan Art Museum, and we will share it with you in this article.

How do I get to Matsumoto City Museum of Art?

The museum is only about 1 km away from JR Matsuemoto Station. After exiting the station, you can walk straight ahead for about 10-12 minutes. If you are bringing children or the elderly to visit the exhibition, you can take public transportation. Take the Town Sneaker (city shuttle bus) east route outside the station and get off at Matsumoto Art Museum Station.

The museum itself also provides parking lots, so readers who drive and travel can park directly next to the museum without worrying about parking problems.

With the opening of the museum in July 2002, Bistro Cen time has provided visitors to this exhibition with a comfortable dining environment, delicious authentic cuisine, lunch and dinner. One of the French salty pie is only available for Chinese food, so we Select this time period when you visit.

There are 22 seats in the shop and reservation service is provided. I look around and use a large area of ​​glass to bring in light. We ordered savoury pie and row meals respectively, accompanied by French bread and soup. We enjoyed our meals and watched the scenery outside the shop. Unconsciously, I also relaxed, which is different from the past travel styles in Japan.

A series of paintings and exhibits by Yayoi Kusama collected by the Matsumoto Art Museum

The museum's special exhibition at that time was a series of paintings by Hashimoto Masakuni. He was a Kano painter from 1835 to 1908 during the Meiji period. Kisakuzen went out of the air to obscure the atmosphere, and his lines and faces changed in different ways. He was regarded as the pioneer of modern Japanese painting. .Of course, the museum staff explained that another treasure of the Matsumoto Art Museum is the works of Yayoi Kusama. We hope that through our sharing and introduction, Taiwanese tourists will not miss the teachers’ representatives when they travel to Nagano Prefecture, Japan. works.

Anya itself is not good at analyzing art works. I am afraid that there will be any irregularities. I hope you can take care of it. However, I will gather some works and life information about Yayoi Kusama as much as possible here, so that everyone can watch the work. Can understand the teacher's creative ideas and ideas more from it.

Yayoi Kusama, her origins and painting ideas continue to the present day.

Yayoi Kusama, a classic Japanese artist, was born in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, so it is not difficult for everyone to understand why Matsumoto City Art Museum has a series of collections by teachers, which is the reason for regular exhibition.She moved to New York City in 1957 to show off her avant-garde artistic creations, and even interacted with other contemporary artists such as Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, and Jasper Johns. ) Joint exhibition together. (The above text is taken fromWikipedia)

I searched a lot of information and mentioned that she suffered from neurological audiovisual impairment since childhood. She often had auditory and visual hallucinations, and used dots and repeated images for artistic creation, which originated from mental illness, and such mental illness and art Creation entangles a lifetime.

She said, "The world I saw seemed to be separated by a dot-shaped net, so I started trying to draw these dots."

▲ The pencil drawing represents that she suffered from neurological visual and hearing impairment since childhood.

Perhaps the aforementioned reasons, we can understand a little bit, but do not know why she always feels that her original family background should also be related.The following message appeared...

The young Yayoi Kusama was once forced by her mother to follow her father who was behind her. She was less than 10 years old and saw everything but was driven away by her father.She was afraid that she would be beaten and scolded by her mother when she went home. The more she thought about it, the more sad she became. So she planned to commit suicide by jumping off the train tracks. Hundreds of works, but the more she paints, the more angry her mother is.

In the end, Kusama was forced to suffer from neurological visual and hearing impairment, and there was a reticulated spot on the retina, so the mother's portrait painted when he was young was full of spots, which also created Kusama's later paintings of his own. wind.Kusama also said that art is her only way out. When she is unhappy, she can't eat or sleep. Only when she paints can she feel comfortable.

The famous saying "If it weren't for art, I would have committed suicide long ago."(The above information comes fromAnatomical dot queen)

After reading the above text, I don't know why there is a sentimental feeling.

Immediately afterwards, the museum staff took us to a space that needed to open the door to enter, and it would affect everyone's viewing. It is recommended that you need to come out 30 seconds after entering.This exhibition work has also been exhibited in Taiwan, which is the more familiar "Infinity Mirrored Room-The Souls of Millions of Light Years Away" (Infinity Mirrored Room-The Souls of Millions of Light Years Away).In the work, a mirror is laid from top to bottom and from left to right, through which Mr. Yayoi Kusama creates an infinitely extending sense of space, and allows viewers to explore the magical charm of space.

In the space, large and small balls of light brewed into the original black paint. Suddenly, there are countless expanses like dots of light. Some people say that this is the teacher trying to give endless feelings through the works, forgetting oneself, and then self-obliteration (self-obliteration). ).

"I think the earth is a dot, the moon is a dot, the sun is a dot, and we are all miniature dots in the universe." After writing this article, I slowly chewed what Mr. Kusama said. This passage.
