21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art

Base of the present-day art which represents Kanazawa

The present-day art museum of art which represents Kanazawa's art spot. It opens in 2004 and is the popular spot more than 2,000,000 people a year visit by recent years. Yomo tends to enter the circular building which became glazed from everywhere, a positive puts in from a top light, and, feeling of opening, much. A free exchange zone is also enriched, and various works are also exhibited in an outdoor lawn area. The work both sides on a wall were various plants so that "green bridge" might straddle a hallway of glass, and which was covered up. It's also characteristic to be different in an impression in each northern and southern face, and a plant in each season delights an eye.

The work by which display space enjoys itself.

The exhibition hall where "L'Origine du monde" in the pay exhibition zone is dim, itself is a work. If I think the color side of the huge ellipse is spread in a wall of the concrete which inclined throughout the room from a footing to the ceiling, and I dent in the inside and see, it rises and is seen, and they seem to be approaching here, and if, the work by which an expression changes with a trick of an eye. Besides the work "swimming pool" in REANDORO which seems to be the pool filled with deep water ERURIHHI would like to appreciate slowly is also jam-packed.

Suzuki-Daisetsu house (It's sea bass, Ise doesn't arrive.)

I touch a thought of the Suzuki-Daisetsu from which ZEN was introduced to foreign countries.

Suzuki-Daisetsu is the Buddhist philosopher from Kanazawa who handed Oriental thought and Japanese culture down to Europe and America widely. A Suzuki-Daisetsu house was established saying it was the place where I know the idea and footprint near Daisetsu's birthplace and muse. The building where a famous architect dealt with the world creates a stone wall and the cityscape which seems to be Kanazawa by aquascape, and Daisetsu's world is developed in it. Beautiful space which consists of garden of 3, a garden of a ridge and a front door, a garden in an open field and a garden of a reflection in the water of 3, a front door ridge, a display ridge and a consideration space ridge, it's possible to be to migrate and be able to let its thoughts wander calmly.

Time to indulge in a consideration by quiet nature

When I advance a long interior corridor from a front door, a heart is becoming gentle gradually. I'll have time in a condition at the heart because there isn't also comment near the work on exhibition. The place consideration space looks at a garden of a reflection in the water like the picture cut off from a door, and where it can be confronted with itself. A forest of shakkei spreads and turns red in fresh fresh green, and a snow scene and the landscape into which I change every season receive. The "Kanazawa night museum" where the events of "night opening" and a performance which extends hours until 20:00 is performed is also held in October and March. Enjoyment in the fantastic garden lit up can be enjoyed.

Ishikawa Prefectural Museum of Art

It's being sold to beauty of the valuable Kutani chinaware "kokutani (in KOKUTA)".

Arts and crafts of fine arts are the museum of art where Yukari Ishikawa's works were collected from the work with the traditional popular Kaga feudal clan relation to present-day painting, carving and arts and crafts from the old days. The 1st floor with the lobby where blowing through as much as height 10m is open is a floor of the temporary exhibition room.

A highlight, national treasure "picture pheasant thurible"

It's national treasure of Nonomura Ninsei work and a picture pheasant thurible to want to pay attention by all means. A thurible of life-sized pheasant is the work by which difficult work was used mostly, and a feather is expressed by a paint and golden-colored of green, ultramarine and red beautifully. The national treasures class arts and crafts I can ask can also enjoy the height of the level of the arts and crafts of fine arts of other Kaga feudal clans fully.
After appreciating it comfortably, it's to the museum shop which has complete set of T-shirt of pheasant, the small plate modeled on kokutani and plastic folder.

The putting Guesthouse in SHII

It's modern with the formality and the construction the old and the new were fused is enjoyed.

The "putting Guesthouse in" SHII where old Ishikawa government office was remodeled. The front becomes united with SHIINOKI of an age of the tree for about 300 years by the magnificent outward appearance for which design of construction was left just as it is (in 1924) in 1924, and I'm pausing massively. On the other hand, when it's seen from the other side, an impression is completely different in the outward appearance of the modern full glassing. The cityscape at night when the light inside the building spills is also nice. A building with a modern atmosphere and the vast "square of" a stone where I fused are also used as the place by the other relaxation where an event of a music festival is performed.

It's fascinated with retrospective decoration in the building.

General information, a gallery, a resting room, Restaurant, a cafe and a selection shop around Kenroku-en are inside 3 story of building, and new exchange and prosperity are invented. It's also charm to have a large selection of good craft products by Kanazawa's author much at a selection shop.
It's Ishikawa Prefecture map of the lacquer coating displayed at the front to catch eye remarkably when I look up at stairs of big marble from a front door hole. There is also decoration of the stained glass which is installed from the first when this building was established on the stairs, and Taisho has the modern atmosphere here there.

Kanazawa College of Art Munemichi Yanagi (and, it calms and I meet, RI) commemoration design research center.

"Beauty of business" is felt by seeing and touching directly.

The industrial designer and Munemichi Yanagi who represent postwar Japan. About 7000 points of design related material such as a work is confided more than a willow industrial design workshop from the edge where he was teaching in Kanazawa College of Art for about 50 years. When I enter permanent exhibition room, furniture, tableware and a kitchen tool are exhibited, and it's felt as I'm in the fashionable living room and dining. It's possible to finger an exhibit and sit down. There are no explanations about a work at all, and the thought that I want you to feel beauty obediently by the eye and hand is confronted with a thing without unnecessary knowledge and prejudice, and is included.

I design beyond the genre from cookware to a pedestrian overpass.

Only something by which present is generally also sold to an exhibited product. It "is also in a house" in the inside, you may be able to meet the item to which I say "It was used at its parents' home." Simple design and usability which don't still fade away are guaranteed. The Munemichi Yanagi's work chronological history which is being introduced by a panel is also a check by all means. It's possible to know a plan and the posture of the Drinking Fountain in the subway station and Munemichi Yanagi who dealt with the wide design such as the car (three-wheeler) and the pedestrian overpass in Olympic cauldron of Sapporo Olympics.

The jewelry a goldsmith author makes and living tool

Atelier and shop by a goldsmith author from Kanazawa. The work an owner handled equals a jewelry, tea ceremony wares, a container and cutlery beautifully in the space where a renovation made the built former stationery store Taisho Era. The copy and a technique are chosen according to something to want to make the material made the strong point with metallic general such as money, platinum, brass, copper, iron, aluminum and titanium. That the jewelry which is also a starting point above all is men and women, the put casual design is charm. You can repair it, so you can have an affection and use it lengthily.

Original cutlery of classical appearance

Handsome cutlery is also a work with a lot of fans. The cutlery which causes the antique texture (3 points of special photograph right) is to give silver plating to brass, and is attracted by the appearance peculiar massive impression is. A cutlery manufacturer in Niigata and Tsubame presses the design using an old metallic mold, and a product designer also has the stainless cutlery series to which an owner gave supervision and completion (2 points of left). The treatment is different from silver, and also easy though it's rich in the classical atmosphere. The gem which shines by a dining table beautifully.
