Japan Society

When I first heard how much it cost to get in the Japan Society, and that it was only one floor, I would be lying if I said I wasn't skeptical.  But I really urge you to go:






The whole museum has this peaceful, calm, beautiful aura.  It was raining today so it made the day even more perfect.

Each sculpture was so breath taking in person, so beautiful

This one, Kyoko Kumai's The Shape of Time, was one of my favorites

 Akio Hamatani's W-Orbit was so incredible in that it is this huge masterpiece and not a single thread is out of place.  Looking up at it, it is wonderful to see the lines of the threads in front intersect with the lines of the threads behind it.
