I went with ICIEA to Naoshima in Kagawa Prefecture this past Saturday. I honestly hadn’t checked what the plan was - I just wanted to go with my friends and see some new things. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that we were headed to a few art museums. By the end of the day, I’d seen 4 original Claude Monet pieces and discovered an artist (new to me) whose work I really like. At least, what I’ve seen of it so far. That was all at the Chichu Art Museum. (Fun aside: the name of the museum in kanji is 地中美術館. Sort of conjures up thoughts of the Lord of the Rings…”middle earth art museum.” Well, I thought it was interesting. Ha ha.)
