Domoto Insho (1891-1975) entered the Kyoto Municipal Painting School in 1918, and in 1920, he studied at the Seikosha art school established by Nishiyama Suisho. He was active mainly in official exhibitions, winning his first prize at the first Teiten Exhibition for his work Fukakusa, receiving a special prize at the third Teiten Exhibition for his work Chojumarizu, and winning the Imperial Art Academy Prize at the sixth Teiten Exhibition for his work Kegon. He was known for his detailed figurative paintings, but after he turned 60 and traveled to Europe, he shifted to an abstract style, completing abstract paintings with dynamic brush strokes. This exhibition, held to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Domoto Insho's death, is a major retrospective that looks back on his career, focusing on his representative works, including those exhibited at official exhibitions, and offers a comprehensive look at this artist who was famous not only in the Kyoto art world but throughout Japan.

The National Museum of Modern Art Kyoto

乐天的静

This is a nice museum to visit if the theme of the exhibitions appeals to you. It has interesting and timeless exhibitions of modern Japanese art, as well as nice works of art from Kyoto. The floors of the museum are easy to navigate. The brochures and labels are in English. The architecture and location are superb, with views of the city and the mountains surrounding it. There are cozy lounges on the ground floor and top floor to enjoy the view. The museum&#39;s cafe overlooks the picturesque Lake Biwa canal. Unlike the National Museum which has a blockbuster exhibition this month that attracts many visitors, the Museum of Modern Art felt quite quiet.

Conan&#39;s camera position is Kamogawa. It is a river that runs through the center of Kyoto. It is also a representative scenic spot. The scenery is generally very beautiful when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. It is nice to take a walk beside it after a good meal.

I went for a walk,
and it seemed that there were many tourists coming and going.
There was a stele of Premier Zhou Enlai&#39;s poems.
At that time, he had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery of Arashiyama.
He was always worried about the country.
The stele of poems he left behind well reflects his mood at that time.
The scenery is natural.
It is a very beautiful mountain painting.
Walk and stop to enjoy the leisure in the mountains.
You can&#39;t feel the scorching heat at all.
It&#39;s still very good.

Now is the season for viewing plum blossoms, playing in the water in the summer, enjoying the cool air in the autumn maple leaves, and praying for the New Year, which are also full of Japanese style. As an important birthplace of Japanese Shinto culture, it is worth a visit. It is also an interesting place as a holy place for students to pray for passing the college entrance examination and entering their favorite university.
